Municipal Coal Yard Established
by City Dads on Suggestion
Grady County Council
of Defense.
UNITED CHARITIES TO
INVESTIGATE ALL CASES
Car Coal Ordered; Another to
Follow in Ten Days; City to
Deliver Fuel; Must Have
Order for Coal.

Chickasha's poor destitute and
needy shall not be deprived Of
warmth this winter as the result Of
action taken at the meeting of the
city council last night.
Taking immediate action upon a
recommendation, or suggestion, of the
Grady county council Of defense, who
sent delegation to the meeting last
night, the city dads voted to estab.
lish a municipal coal yard for the
exclusive use of the poor, destitute
and needy in this city.
Acting.Mayor c, II. Caneman, who
is purchasing agent for the city. was
empowered to buy two carloads Of
the fuel and to keep an adequate
amount in supply during the entire
winter. The first carload, Mr. Cane
man says, will arrive in the city next
week and the second the week fol
lowing. According to present plans,
the coal viii be stored in the buna-
ing formerly occupied by No. , fire
station; the fuel will be delivered by
the city.
In view of the conditiolS arising
from influenza and extensive advance
in prices, we believe that more desti-
tuition, more suffering from lack of
coal and material will be in evidence
in Chickasha this winter than ever
before. Therefore, we heartily rec
ommend this action, a purely chari-
table one, and one that will relieve
much suffering among the poor in
Chickasha this winter" said one of
the delegates from the county de-
fense council who appeared before
the council last night.
The fuel will be delivered to the
needy free of charge 1t is estimat-
ed that this will cost the city only a
small amount over $1,000, Mr. Cane
man heartily recommended the sug-
gestion Of the delegates and declar-
ed there would not be a family in
Chickasha suffer from lack of fuel
While the details of the plan are
not yet fully worked out as to how
the distribution of the free fuel will
be made, city officials this morning
were of the opinion that this action
would of necessity come through
some organization like the United
Charities.
One city official said, ut is imper
ative that the city have some assur
ance that the parties to whom this
coal is delivered are worthy, That
is, that they absolutely need the coal
and cannot pay for it, Otherwise.
great volume of coal might get in
to the hands Of some who could in
reality pay for it. while others who
actually needed the assistance, but
who were too proud to ask for it,
might go without fuel
1T is probable therefore, that the
United Charities will take over the
responsibility of Investigating the
needs Of the citys poor along the
fuel line. This organization is al
ready in touch with such conditions
1t will doubtless be necessary for
those to whom coal is delivered to
have an order from the United Char
tiles for that coal This, ! believe,
is the only way in which the propo-
sition can be handled in a manner
satisfactory to the city AMI just to
those who actually need the fuel"
