MANY AUTO TOURISTS.
Highways in All Directions Crowded.
With Overland Travellers.


Nevada, June 24.-Nevada, where
the trail divides" between the great
Lincoln highway from the Atlantic to
the Pacific and the Jefferson highway
from the gulf to the Great Lakes, IS
now the passing point OF hundreds OIL
tourists each day.
The tourist cars are now on the
roads in great numbers. There are
parties in mammoth, high powered
touring cars, bearing wealth laden
people from the east with their
chauffeurs at the wheel passing the
lowly Ford with its load Of people from
the plains of the west.
Following the mammoth expensive
touring car may be stripped Fora
cha ssis fitted with an oldtime prairie
schooner cloth top and possibly
trailer fastened to the rear. Oklahoma
Indians are sharing the road with the
wealthy landowners Of the far north
and all of them are kept busy lodging
the thousands Of scurrying Iowa lar
mers who are about their every DAY
business, probably hauling grain or
hogs to market in the tonneau OF their
car or their truck.
There are more tourists on the ROAD
today than there has been for years

raise in passenger rates on the rail-
ways and the necessity Of quick traVei

Des Moines, June 24.-Altho reports
have been filtering in to some points
of the state that little anthracite coal
would come to Iowa the state fuel adj
ministrators office has received no
word to this effect.
Fuel Commissioner Webster is ex-
pected back from Washington early
this week. where both himself and
Governor Harding have been in an eff
fort TO get some concessions in the
order recently issued by DR.. Garfield,
head of the fuel administration, barring
all shipments to this state.
1t has been reported in the news dis
patches from Sioux City that word has
been received there to the effect that
points along the Illinois Central in Iowa
and to the north would receive so per
cent of their normal supply of hard
coal. This report can not be confirmed
here however. Northern Iowa has no
soft coal mines and has always used
far more hard coal proportionately than
central or southern Iowa.
While Iowa consumers are more gen.
orally storing soft coal these summer
months than they did a year ago, vet
coal is not being stored in anything ike
the quantities necessary to avoid
serious shortage next winter the men
in touch with conditions declare. 1t is
absolutely necessary, these men say, to
store coal if it is possible to do so and
it will even pay to store it out of DOORS
they say.
