 Little Rock, March 11-H. c. Couch, federal fuel administrator for Arkansas, is working on plans to se- cure orders from the government for Arkansas coal. If the govern ment will take the surplus for the next sixty days it will enable the mines to continue operating, and avoid the consequent loss of produc- tion. With the coming of warm weather, the demand for domestic consumption is greatly reduced, and unless the government, which was in great need of coal to move its ship ping, should take over large con- tracts, the mines will be forced to shut down for time.

FOE MUST GIVE UP SEA IDEAS

London. Reuters learns the Allied
governments, as a result OF continual
communications. are perfectly &C.
quainted with and agreed upon the
terms under which il will be possible
to enter into negotiations for an arm
istice. Ii should be observed that
naval questions have never been
dealt with in any negotiations be-
tween the United States and Germany,
and they are of first importance from
the Allies viewpoint.
THE idea of the freedom OF the
seas, as understood by Germany"
says the Reuter- dispatch, lis not 4
matter that any Allied government
can accept at all. IL would appear
that the conditions precedent to dn
armistice must include the question
OF sea power, as well as of land pow
err, but hitherto Germany has always
limited her remarks to land power
The president never assumed that
his conditions would be limited TO the
evacuation of occupied territories, rs
the Germans always argued. He put
a number of questions to Germany
after receiving the first note. as a
preliminary to placing the matter be-
fore the Allies"
