A thin, sickly little man entered one
OF the stores in one Of our small
towns recently and quietly seated him
self on a convenient chair. One Of the
clerks approached and asked if he
wished to purchase anything. ooh,
no. said the man, u just dropped in

hour had passed, the manager of the
store, becoming curious, approache
him and asked what could be done for
him. "Why, nothing that know Of"
said the man. "You see l have ner-

me to stay in a quiet place. Noticing

Cut it out" is the curt admonition
of the North Dakota fuel administra-
ton to certain dealers who have been
charged with discriminating in the
sale of coal. J M. Hammond of Ash
ley, fuel administrator for Mcintosh
county, referred to the federal admin
lstrator for North Dakota complaints
to the effect that certain dealers were
refusing to sell coal to consumers
who were not on their books as pat
rons Of other lines. For instance, an ell.
evator company would decline to sell
coal to farmer who did not ship
his grain through this company. Sim
liar instances of discrimination have
been reported in the case of other fuel
dealers. Capt. Baker advised Coun-
ty Administrator Hammond that deal
ers must treat all alike in the distribu-
ton of coal supplies, with a view to
making proper provision for every
one, and to avert hardship. Fuel in
these times has become public utility
whose distribution and consumption is
regulated by the nation, and no re-
taller or jobber will be allowed to pick
and choose the people who may have
the coal which chances to pass thru
his hands, nor to say to any class of
people that they are not to have the
coal required to make their homes
comfortable.
