Train Load Of Coal Coming
 10 Relieve Fuel Shortage

Messengers have been sent to the lower Arkansas towns, where gas from the Arkansas Natural Gas com pany's lines is used, to see that all industrial plants discontinue the use of gas as a fuel. The shutting down Of the Shreveport plants will be a great help to the situation. as two glass factories in that city alone use about 3,000,0o0 feet daily. and this supply will be diverted to the lines coming into ths state.
 MT Couch is meeting tonight with the Locomotive Firemen and En- gileers and is enlsting them in the campaign to conserve fuel.
 Wants Wood Used.
 Plans for "coal-saving, wood-sav- ing' campaign will be formulated Wednesday night in MT. Couch's of flee by members of the administra- tion advisory committee and the county chairmen from all over the state
 "We must use more wood for fuel,' said Mir. Couph. "In short time We expect to have every farmer and a greater part of the citizens using wood instead of coal. It will be ! cheaper and easier to get and we have plenty of it in Arkansas.'

Little Rock, Jan. t2.-!n response to urgent demands from Pine Bluff, Hot Springs, Hope, Prescott and JOnesboro announcement was made here that a special train Was to leave tonight to carry sufficient coal to remedy serious shortages in the sev- eral towns. This action was taken after Fuel Administrator r. C. Couch had been appealed to.
 industrial Plants Closed.
 Mr Couch has received notification from offiicals of Shreveport, La, to the effect that industrial plants in that city would discontinue the use of gas as fuel if it would help the Arkansas cities, and with this ad- ditional supply entering the lines of the Arkansas Natural Gas company it is thought that the pressure will be much greater tomorrow morning. The notification was in answer to MT. Couchs request that the gas companies in Shreveport securing their supply from the Reserve Nat ural Gas company shut off all their industrial customers. This is the first time Shreveport industrial plants have been without gas. and it is thought that their sacrifice will greatly improve the Arkansas situ- tion.

 After the Russian position had been thus voiced, the conferees apparently got down to business. They left the question of separate representation for the Ukraine in the conference, for the decision at a plenary session, after delegates Of the central powers had i talked it over among themselves.

COldest in Nineteen Years.


 Washington, Jan. 12.--The coldest weather experienced in the United States since 1899 tonight extended from the Rocky mountains to the At lantic coast, and from the lakes to the gulf. Zero temperatures were regis tered almost as far south as Birming- ham, while in North Dakota the ther mometer went to 32 below, and it was only 12 degrees higher in many parts of the middle west. In the west there was heavy snow, which blocked rail- road traffic in several states on both sides of the Mississippi.
 The snow storm was expected to pass tonight, the weather bureau re- ported, and with it's abatement it was expected that railroad traffic would soon be resumed Wire service was so demoralized that full operation of some roads may be delayed several days.
 East Awaits Its Turn. New York and New England tonight had not felt the full severity of the cold wave, but temperatures there were falling rapidly, and much colder weather was forecast for tomorrow. In the SOutn the cOld eXtended Tar into Florida and the cold along the gulf coast was severe. The thermom- eter was IS below freezing at Mobil ', and 20 below freezing at New Orleans. The minimum temperature today at Chicago was 12 below zero, with cold CT weather expected tonight. It was 20 degrees below zero at Fort Wayne. 16 below at St. Louis and below at Memphis At Birmingham it was ? above.

RAILROADS FIGHT 1TO hIEET
 COLDEST WEATHER SINCE g
Coal First!
 fS Order of
 R. R. Director
Passenger Traffic May Be Suspended in Section to
 Weet Conditions.
(Ry Associa ted Press )

Washington, Jan. 12.-The railroad administration today met storm condl- tions throughout the country with for mai instructions to railroads to move coal first wherever possible, and to re- duce energies to keep locomotives in running order.
 High winds, low temperatures and snow in the middle west, caused fear that passenger traffic in that section and west of Chicago would have to be abandoned, and Director General Me Adoo instructed railway officials to quired.
 A. H. Smith, assistant director for eastern lines, reported late today that meager advices from the west indi- cated continuance of passenger serv- ice depended on abatement of the storm. Tonight wires were down, box cars blown from tracks or unroofed, and all trains late. A number of pas senger trains already were stalled, 1t was reported.
 East Faces Problem.
 In the east traffic conditions were better, but officials were worried over the eastward movement of the storm Disruption of traffic in the west and south was only temporarily serious, it was pointed out, since congestion would be cleared up quickly when nor nal weather is restored, but in the east it would take weeks to eliminate the storms effect.
 Assurance that all railroad employees would be considered in any future ad- justment of wages, was given today by railroad officials to F. Finnison, vice president of the union of mainte- nance of way employees. He presented no wage demands.
