a supply now. Dealers are asked to
!! get busy, to have the local papers get
busy and to make use of the telephone
and keep their teams busy for Uncle
Sam will need more coal next fall than
last fall. It is urged that as there Is
10 per cent moisture in coal, the lay
ing in Of next winters supply now will
season the coal which is said to need
seasoning just as much as wood does
The dealers are asked to fill their
sheds now and are told that to wait is
to lose and let the boys over there
lose by idleness in the summer when
coal merchants should be up and do
ing. Iowa is expected to increase Its
yield by 100000 tons and every day
the mines are idle means a, loss OF
some $4,000 tons In the output.
THE NEW ZONE SYSTEM
The new zones established April 1
are known as the eastern, southern
and southwestern Iowa zones. The
eastern district is that portion Of the
state located on and east Of line
from Mason City, thence by way Of the
C. M. & st. P to Nora Junction, thence
via the C. r. I. & P. through Waterloo
to Cedar Rapids, thence via the c. M.
& S. p. to Ottumwa, thence via the G.
r. I. & P. to Keokuk.
The southern Iowa district is de-
fined as the portion of the state locat-
ed on and south of the c. M. & st. p
through McGregor, Mason City and
Rock Valley to Sioux City.
The southwestern Iowa district lies
on and west of line from Sioux City
o. la
and Abel to Dies Moines. thence via
the C. B. & @. to Abba, thence via the
Wabash to Moravia, thence via the C.
M. & st. to Chillicothe, Mo.
The plan prohibits the movement in
to the whole state of Iowa of coal from
the producing districts of Missouri,
Arkansas, Indiana western and east
ern Kentucky, Wyoming, Tennesseo,
Ohio, Kanawha, Kenobah-Thacker and
Colorado; into eastern Iowa from pro-
ducing districts in Iowa; into southern
Iowa from the lake docks. and into
southwestern Iowa from producing
districts in Illinois.
CAN'T SUPPLY NEARBY TOWNS
The eastern Iowa district will be
supplied the year around by Illinois
mines. This precludes the shipment
OF Iowa mined coal to the district of
which Ottumwa Is the western bound
airy along the Milwaukee railroad from
Cedar Rapids to Ottumwa and on the
Rock Island railroad from here to
Keokuk. 1t means that operators in
the vicinity of Ottumwa cannot sell
their output to Agency, Fairfield, and
other towns and cities lying close to
Ottumwa but east Of the zone line.

TOOL OF KAISER

Washington, u. c., April 3.-COunt
Czernin's statement that France had
suggested peace discussions with Aus
tria- Hungary was characterized by OF
ficials here today as the beginning OF
a new German peace offensive with
the Austro- Hungarian minister acting
at Germany's behest.
The speech Of Count Czernin, it was
declared, is a political mRneuver to
spread impression in the allied coun
tries that the allied governments are
fighting solely to reclaim Alsace-Lor
raine. The peace move, they said. was
timed to follow the breakdown of the
Teutonic military offensive.
Any Teutonic suggestions that the
time for peace discussions Is near at
hand will find nothing but a negative
response in America.
Count Czernin's declaration thai
Austro- Hungary almost was on the
point of beginning peace negotiations
with the entente was branded by ON
Gals as false. 1t was said that no sug
eestions of such discussion had
cached Washington and that il they
lad been made this government woulc
have been informed.
Officials characterized the foreign
minister's speech as a "feeler" which
probably would be followed by some
declaration or announcement in Ger
many.
The entente embassies ascibe to
Czernin a purpose to breed suspicion
and discord among the allies.
There has been no change, 1t war
declared in the attitude of the allies
opposing the central empires.
AS for France, it was reasserted
that she has no intention Of toleratine
any peace suggestion apart from her
co-belligerents.

montary ana pOllllcal events IN Oul
country justified the hope that the
monarchy would soon be defenseless.'
WILL NOT BEG PEACE
Il do not intend to 90 begging FOL
peace or to obtain 1t by entreaties and
lamentations, but to enforce it-by our
moral right and physical strength,
Count Czernin declared. ANY other
tactics consider will contribute to the
prolongation Of the war"
Count Czernin declared that before
the western offensive began Premier
Clemenceau of France asked Austria,
Hungary on what basis she would ne
gotiate peace, according to dispatch
from The Hague to the Daily Mail.
Austria replied that the only obstacle
to peace was Frances desire for Al
sace-I-orraine and Premier Clemen.
ceau said that 1t was impossible to ne.
gotiate on that basis.
WILL STAND BY GERMANY
ave are fighting for the defense Of
Austria Hungary and Germany" said
Count Czernin. Come what may, we
will not sacrifice Germany's interests
any more than she will leave us in the
lurch. We are not fighting for imper-
ialistic or anrexationist aims for our.
selves or for Germany"
The Austro- Hungarian foreign min.
lister, according to an Amsterdam dis.
patch, declared also that he had an
earnest desire for peace and that his
country wished to avoid any further
military offensive. After referring to
his reply to Premier Clemenceau re.
garding Alsace-Lorratne, he said that
Austria would insist on the status quo
adding "the aspirations Of France and
Italy are Utopias which will be ter.
ribly avenged
DENIES DESIGNS ON SERBIA
In regard to Bulgaria's claim
against Serbia the foreign minister
said:
Bulgaria must receive from Serbia
certain districts inhabited by Bulgar.
ians We however. have no desire to
destroy Serbia. We will enable Ser.
bia to develop and would welcome
closer economic relations with her.
"since I came to oflce," declared
Count Czernin, Il have striven only
after one aim, namely to secure an
peace to the monarchy and
to createNa situation which will secure
to Austria Hungary her future free
development and, moreover, to do
everything possible to ensure that this
terrible war will be the last one for
time out of mind. have never spoken
differently"
Count Czernin added here, however,
his declaration that he had no tnten-
ton of begging for peace.
