COAL, AS WELL
AS MORE COAL, NEEDED

Laports received by the Inspection
| vision of the U. S. Fuel Admins
alton from inspectors operating in
the various fields for the week ended
July 10th, show that 304 mines were
classified as preparing coal improper
ly. 1t is also shown that 402 cars
were rejected at Tidewater, and that
81 mines were embargoed at Tide
water.
While this condition is a great I'M
provement over that existing during
last year, the Fuel Administration is
continuing its diligent policy Of urg-
ing the mines to still further i'm
proYement.
officers and members of the United
mine Workers Of America are CO.
operating industriously with the Fuel
Administration in its ceaseless efforts
to bring about a reform in the prac-
tice of loading unclean coal, and thru
their trade papers and the various
local organizations are constantly call
ing the attention of the miners to the
urgency of the case.
Every ton OF slate, rock, bone or
other impurity that goes into a rail-
road car displaces that much coal.
Just as much steam energy and man
power is required to transport ton
of impurity as a ton of coal Not
only that but the heat-producing
value of coal is to large extent de-
stroying when mixed with impurities
such as have been described.
In these times when the govern
ment is exerting effort to distribute
to the various communities sufficient
amount of coal to carroy the in
dustries upon which the war depends,
as well as to taking care of domestic
consumers, more devolves upon the
individual miner, working in the
mines than the mere turning out of
coal. His product must be kept free
of impurities.
1t has been estimated that in GER
tain districts of every 100 cars of
coal now transported, Ii cars of use
less slate, sulphur and other impuri-
tiles are included. This is a waste of
energy when energy is one of the
nations greatest assets.
The Fuel Administration nnaLac a
special plea to the miners of the
country to see to it that only coal of
the highest standard of quality is
loaded into the cars.

ton is already reduced to a minimum.
Our Situation.
The situation which the United
States faces in its efforts to maintain
a fair distribution of sugar to the AL
lied world is as follows:
Sugar supplies throughout the coun-
try, in homes, stores, factories and
bakeries are at low ebb. We must
make Increased sugar shipments to the
Allies.
Production of American beet and
Louisiana cane crops have been disap-
pointing.
Porto Rico crops have been cur.
tailed.
immense sugar stocks in Java can
not be reached on account of the ship
ping shortage; ships are needed for
troop movements and munitions.
Army and Navy sugar requirements
have increased as we'll as those from
the Allies.
Most industries using sugar have had
their allotment reduced by one-half ;
some will receive no sugar.
Households should make every eff
fort to preserve the fruit crop without
sugar or with small amounts of sugar
Later, when the sugar supply is larg
er, the canned fruit may be sweetened
as it is used.

POLITICS PASSED UP

The Red Cross, the greatest humani-
tartan organization in the world re-
minds all persons and parties that
its name must in no way be connect
ed with politics and addresses the
press as follows:
"In view of the approaching Con-
gressional Election-the first since
this country's entrance into the great
war-National Headquarters of the
American Red Cross has issued
statement reminding all members of
the Red Cross that the American Red
Cross is and must be maintained a
strictly non-partisan, non-political
organization.
ut is of the highest Importance,
therefore, that all candidates for
office, who are at heart, sincere we'll
wishes of the Red Cross should real
ize that they ought to make every
effort to prevent the public from
gaining the impression that political
preferment can or should, directly or
indirectly, be affected by Red Cross
work, either at home or abroad. The
text of Red Cross Service to man
kind is stamped by the approval of
the American people, regardless of
politics, race or religion, and on faint
of selfishness or self-seeking can be
allowed to creep into the work, en-
dangering, and perhaps even destroy
ing its great accompaniment.
'National Headquarters, therefore,
requests all officials Of the Red Cross
who are in position Of executive aut-
hority, and who at the same time
contemplate candidacy for public
Office, either to resign the Office which
they hold under the Red Gross, or to
refrain from Offering themselves as
candidates for election to any Ma
tional or State Office"

Ordinarily, it takes a passenger auto

concerts, where some of the European

other startling phase of the Russian,
