Sioux Falls. Feb. 23.-No more
soft coal from the east.
This, in effect, is to be the result
of the announcement today of a fed
eral fuel administration embargo on
lake shipments to North and South
Dakota of bituminous coal, except for
public utility requirements. accord
ing to Il. ii. Warren, fuel administra-
tor for Minnehaha county.
Instead, this state will soon have
to depend on Iowa, Montana and
Wyoming for its coal, says Mr.. War
rem, but there are compensations for
the change, as the coal in the west is
plentiful, of a good grade and will
be cheaper than the eastern coal.
The federal fuel administration is
planning to establish a more system
attic scheme of distributing coal and
the embargo shortly to be placed, is
part of that plan. Roughly estimat-
ed. IL is believed that Sioux Falls
alone has been getting around 10000
tons of soft coal from the east now,
a portion of which is Illinois coal and
the larger percentage lake coal from
the docks. Ii was on this dock sup
ply that both North and South Da-
kota have depended, but the burden
is now to be shifted to the west.
while I am unable to state def
nitely the PLAN" said Mr.. Warren to-
day, Il understand that the fuel ad-
ministration expects to form districts
of the whole country. Each district
will have to get it's coal supply from
specified sources and cannot get II
unfortunately as they now do.
Each will be allowed what they re-
auire. but there will not be the same
picking and choosing.
North Dakota now depends al
most entirely On the coal from the
docks and this state has been to a
large extent. North Dakota also has
its Ignite supply which We have not.
We have also been getting some coal
from Illinois, but / take it that this
will go only to public utilities If any
is permitted to come here.
South Dakota is to get it's coal
from Iowa, Montana and Wyoming,
so | am informed. We are now get
ting some Montana coal and it seems
to be satisfactory. There is plenty
of IL and IL is cheaper than the east
ern coal.
"One point I do not understand is
why we should have to take the west
ern rather than the eastern coal
when 1t is generally known that Goa
was bruoght to Duluth on the return
: trips of the steamers that handled
the iron shipments east bound. Thai
seemed the feasible way to keep ths
ships loaded, but doubtless some bet
ter plan has been figured out.
"No one need fear any lack Of
supply, no matter what embargo |:
placed for we will be amply protect
! ed either way, and will get sufficient
, for our needs"
According to the Washington dis
patch, the purpose of the embargo i:
to conserve the coal at the lake dock:
and to stimulate its distribution in
territory where it is badly needed
Surplus coal from Montana and Wyo-
ming mines will be used in the Da'
kotas, says the dispatch while the
lake docks which are now supplied in
large part from the Illinois shipments
will be used for other purposes and
the Illinois coal used elsewhere.

Just a Word About This Sale of Women's Coats,
 Suits and Dresses.

I was called to New York by some of the largest manufacturers of women's coats, suits and dresses. They wired they had some unusual good things for me. Of course ent and found that on account of the awful influenza epidemic all over the country, many merchants had cancelled orders and their factories were piled up with ready made garments and they needed the money. This being the case, bought cheaper than I have ever seen it before In all my business experience have never seen such values as these, and want all to get the benefit these great purchases So come to this sale Monday and I guarantee you'll be pleased.

With the American Army In
France. Controle American, March
25.-To win this war, America must
spend millions upon millions for
artillery. Every day demonstrates
that cannon is one of the very big
gest of determining factors.
Artillery is not second to airplanes
just now. A vital need of the allies
on the Western front is preponder-
ance of heavy guns.
II don't fully agree with air serv-
ice enthusiasts that this war is go
ing to be won in the air." one of
the worlds greatest artillery ex-
perts told me the other day when
1 visited the biggest artillery school
in France. where he is helping to
train American artillerymen.
Guns and Planes Allied.
"I think this war is going to be
won on the ground with, of course,
the invaluable help we will get
from our air service. --.
ARTILLERY and aircraft nowadays
are so interdependent. one on the
other, for results, that the allies
must have more of both than the
Germans.

but If we don't have the big guns
behind our own lines the informa-
ton we get from our air scouts
isn't going to do us much good.
so I'd say, artillery and more
artillery and airplanes and more
airplanes."
This biggest artillery training
school in France, where thousands
of American artillerymen are be-
ing given the final touches before
they go into action. has adopted as
it's slogan the oft-repeated remark
of Napoleon:
The Lord is on the side with the
best artillery"
Wonderful advances have been
made in artillery by both the allies
and the Germans since the start OF
the war.
The Germans were the first to &c

The encouraging feature of the
whole artillery situation from the
American standpoint is that every
American artillery officer realizes the
vital necessity of America bringing
into the war more and better guns
than the enemy possesses.

DALLYING congress
IS CHIDED BY POU
Calls for Action on Postal Mems
Pay and Housing Bill.

Congress dallying over minor mat
ter while bills Of the highest impor-
tance are crowded aside, was scored
on the House floor yesterday by
Chairman Pou, of the rules commit
tee. He made an earnest plea for less
oratory and more action.
His criticism came after three days
Of debate speeches to all but empty
benches-on a proposal to increase
postal employees salaries. When Pou
spoke, practically every member Of
Congress had had printed into frank
able records why he favored better
wages for this numerous class Of en-
plOyes.
Test votes have shown that the bill,
If allowed to come to a vote, will pass
almost unanimously.
Representative Pou said in part:
THE House has now been consid-
cring for some days a bill which, it
seems, ought to have been speedily
voted upon. The proposition is to in
crease postal salaries Is to 20. per cent.
Living costs have increased. we all
know, 45 to so per cent. Why delay or
a controversy over such a bill?
There are at this moment meas
ures of most supreme Importance alb
solutely necessary for the successful
prosecution of the war that are held
up by this prolonged and unnecessary
discussion.
why do we not call up the hous-
ing bill, necessary to provide places
to live for men who will build the
supremely essential ships? Why not
act on other measures equally vital,
for which departments of the govern
ment are anxiously awaiting before
they can inauguarate important poll
cies?'

fantry too far forward into enemy
territory and then didn't have enough
artillery to hold the captured ground,
and the attacking infantry would be
cut to pieces in their new positions" T"
another artillery expert declared.
The railroad gun" marks a big ad-
vance in artillery over here. The
Americans are being trained to handle
guns which. with the railroad trucks
, on which they are mounted, weigh
more than $50 tons. and which, with
their ammunition cars attached, take
up more space on the tracks than a
locomotive and three or four freight
cars in America.
Yet with all their immense
weight. these railroad guns can be
raised or lowered by a single oper-
ator. They are the most mobile of
all artillery because they" can be
rushed from point to point where
they are needed most. There is
practically no danger of their cap
ture because they fire from posi-
tions many miles behind the first
line trenches.
With the possible exception Of the
air service. a higher standard of
education is required for the artil-
lery than any other branch of the
army service.
During a three days visit to the
artillery school. which is located
in a part of France far removed
from the fighting zone, I attended
several of the book work" classes.
Privates study Trlgonometry.
In one class more than a hundred
enlisted men were working out
problems in trigonometry!
Boys have to have a pretty good
education or they can't get by with
the mathematics that are needed in
our branch" the ofiicer-teacher de-
clared. THE handling of all the guns
Is based on angles OF elevation. quad
rants and ranges and the man who
can't get the hang OF it is generally
shunted off into some other branch
where he doesn't have to use his head
so much"
But there's not much romance about
the artillery. The infantry boys in the
trenches who go over the top" get
the glory.
II trained with both the British and
French artillery for several months
and went through a number of battles
with them. but l never once saw the
enemy" said an American artillery Of
ficer. Always we were hidden miles
behind the lines and we shot where
our airplane observes or our. battery
commander told us to shoot. We had
to depend on our airplanes to tell us
when we hit our marks"

eve viii VIM"
Declares Gen. Wood

Mai. Gen. Leonard Wood, u. s.
A., said yesterday:
Il do not believe that the Ger
man armies will get through the
allied line Notwithstanding all
the reports indicating temporary
successes. There is no occasion
for alarm or undue anxiety. The
spirit OF the French and British
armies and their confidence are
such as to make a serious pene-
tration of their front practically
an impossibility.
The British and French real
lied that when this attack came
their lines would be dented. but
there has never been any doubt
that they could hold their lines
in other positions.
The morale of the allied troops
and Of our own is splendid. The
British and French showed US
everything when we were over
there and all were appreciative
of our visits and of what the
United States was doing to-
wards a successful conclusion
of the issues. They in fact show
ed us everything in sight.
I'VE are going to win. We
cannot lose.
"As to the reports about the
mysterious new German ordnance
that is reported to be shelling
Paris, 1 don't believe there is
any such gun. The longest
range gun we heard of over in
France was one that was ru-
mored to be capable of throw
ing projectiles twenty-nine miles.
We. however, were not able to
verify the report"
