EVERYBODY WARNED TO
 PUT IN COAL SUPPLY
In Order to Keep the Mines Working to Capacity.

Washington, March 25.-More than half a million tons loss in coal pro duct:on last week caused the fuel ad- ministration tonight to reiterate warn ings contained in the announcement of it's zone distribution system that next winters supplies of fuel should be laid in early to keep mines working to capacity. The falling off, if contin- ued officials said, would mean serious shortage during next winter to those sections not forehanded enough to purchase in advance.
 In working out a zone system for the distribution of fuel, allotting cer- tain territory to each field, so as to avoid cross hauling and other trans
 portation evils, the normal production and consumption of coal have been
 balanced so evenly that any drop ir
 output will mean innumerable difficult
 ties in obtaining fuel after cold wealth
 CT sets in, especially as war needs in- crease.
 l The fuel administration holds that having provided a normal and eco
 nomical method of distribution of fuel | it cannot go further than it's warning to consumers to purchase early.
