GARFIELD ORDERS ALL
INDUSTRIES 10 CLOSE
Five Days--0fder Includes All
Territory East Of the
Mississippi
The States Of Minnesota and Leuis-
lana Are lncluded-Command Set
Forth Is the Most Drastic and
Sweeping Fuel Priority Order Given.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Washington. five. days every
industry in the United STATES, east Of
the Mississippi River, including even
the war industries, must close down.
The States of Minnesota and Louis
lana are included. This Dis the COM
mand sent forth in the most drastic
and sweeping fuel priority order ever
issued by the Government. It's pur-
pose is to meet the serious coal fam
inc. The same order fixes every Mon
day from January % to March %, In
elusive, as a holiday Several excep-
lions were made in the order with re-
gard to certain industries, which, like
blast furnaces, would be ruined by
any cessation Of their plants, and
manufacturers of perishable food
stuffs.
Newspapers are excepted entirely
from four of the five days. but they are
limited to holiday editions on the nine
Mondays designated. On such days
they may only print such editions as
they are accustomed to issue on ma.
tional holidays. Those papers not ac-
customed to issue any editions on such
holidays may print not more than one
edition DR.. H. A. Garfield, Federal
Fuel Administrator, said that failure
to observe the order will make per-
son liable to the provisions of the
Lever law. This imposes a maximum
of $4,000 fine, or Jail sentence. The
order fits in with that of Director Cen
eral w. G. McAdoo giving preference
to coal, food and bunker coal for the
ships carrying supplies to the allies.
The two have been in conference sew
eral times over the problem and the
only difference lies in the fact that
Mr.. McAdoo is moving other emer-
gency essentials besides coal. While
the order does not mention ship-yards,
it is known that they will bespermitted
to continue operations, as usual al.
though munitions plants willSbe closed.
