National Association to Spare No
Means to Secure Record Output
for Summer and Fall,

An output of $4,000, 900 tons of coal
a week during the summer and fall.
in hope to keep down an expected
fuel shortage next winter, is the goal
set by the National Coal ASSOCIATE ton.
composed of bituminous operators
throughout the country. The associa-
tion calls attention to the fact that
such an output has never been
reached In the United States. but that
nothing will be left undone to ac-
complish that capacity.
The association last night an
nounced the appointment of a COM
mittee. headed by A. r. hamilton Of
Pittsburgh, to cooperate with the
fuel administration in securing the
greatest output of coal possible be-
tween now and the return of winter.
Practically every coal field in the
United States will be represented on
the committee.
That the miners are ready to do
their share in achieving the goal set
by the mine operators Is shown by
statement of the fuel administration
last night that 12,465.000 tons were
mined during the week ended June 8.
