SELFISH FUEL
HOARDERS HIT

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan S.-Starting
with the surgar hoarders, and the
troubles those greedy and selfish per-
sons caused for food administrators
and for their sugarless neighbors, the
war has produced some strange phe-
nomena In this country.
With the cold weather, according to
reports from various county fuel di-
rectors over Indiana, there appeared
the coal-grabber, usually the same
type or species as the sugar hoarder.
The women, as rule, we're the worst
offenders in the sugar-hoarding game.
The men are most frequently detected
in tricky attempts to get more coal
than they are entitled to have out Of
the short stocks available.
Here and there the Federal officers
find traces in the coal grab OF the
same historical, unreasoning greed
that snapped up sugar in large lots
and hid it away in pantries in such
quantities as to cause a nationwide
sugar famine, which, without govern
ment INTERPRETATION would have re-
suited in 30-cent sugar as a by-pro-
duct OF the peoples own self1shneSS.
In Marion county, in st. Joseph
county, in Dekalb, Ripley, Lake,
Wayne. Madison, and elsewhere, local
fuel directors have taken drastic ac-
ton to put summary stop to tricky
efforts on the part of a few unpatrio-
tic "hogs" who have sought to get into
their coal bins larger allowance of
fuel than could be spared to any single
home. 1t is being pointed out that
while coal is short and while many
families are in danger of severe suf-
fering due to the lack Of fuel, no house
hold which has on hand even small
supply of coal can be permitted to con-
tinue to put coal away in excess of it's
real needs. Coal boarding in one
home means suffering. probable sick
ness and possible death in many 9th
er homes.

Hand of War Turns Hand of
Clock Back to Old Wood-Box

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. s.-The hand
OF war turns the hands of the clock
backward toward the semiprimitive
days when the wood-box yawned in
the pathway Of the small boy, when
wood-sawyers made the village rounds,
when the load of stove wood was a
market-day commonplace, and when
fuel was corded neatly in every woods
against the coming Of wintcd.
Indiana farmers very largely have
resumed the use of wood for fuel in
place OF coal, at the suggestion Of the
Federal fuel administration. Scores
Of churches in small towns and rural
communities are. heated with wood
provided by community chopplng bees.
The schools in many cities and towns
and in the country, many of them, are
using wood as In the good old days to
provide heat during the winter wealth
er. In many county infirmarles wood
has become the regular fuel once
more. Lodge rooms are adopting
wood in place of coal for heating.
One of the useful services rendered
early in the winter by fuel directors
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1918-01-08

in many counties had to do with the
survey OF the supply Of wood suitable
and available to be used for fuel In
place Of coal In Lake county. for ex-
emple, Edward Simon, appointed on a
committee to look after fallen timber
IL the county, reported hundreds OF
cords OF such material at the site OF
new bridge on the Kankakee river.
The Indiana Harbor Belt railroad was
asked not to destroy old ties which
could be used for fuel. The Pennsyl.
vania railroad in many Indiana coun
ties has contributed quantities of old
railroad ties to be cut into stove-wocd
for the people along the line, the sta
ton agent being the gobetween.
Old shade trees are being cut into
stove-wood at Kokomo and In many
other cities, including Lebanon, the
cutters being restricted to dead and
dying timber or to undesirables. Sher.
idan Clyde of Elwood, an agent of the
fuel director of Madison county. re-
Gently publicly denounced farmers in
that section for boarding and using
coal while at the same time they were
fully supplied with wood.
