backing the operators, and the Rail-

has refused to contract for the 15O.-
900. 900 tons OF coal needed to run the
railroads. on the ground that the
operators are asking s40OOo.O00 in
excess OF the amount charged last
year. this afternoon brought repre-
sentatfves of the two Administrations
into a three-hour conference with
Bernard NJ Baruch, chairman of the
war industries board.
The conference, which was attend
ed by Fuel Administrator Garfield and
John SkeIton Williams. director OF
purchases for the Railway Admins
tration. was held behind closed doors,
and no formal statement was made
1t was learned. however, that the sit
uatlon had not reached point where
q settlement was in sight
1t was brought to the attention OF
the war industries board today that
IL was within the power OF the Rail-
way Administration to adjust the
whole situation by fixing higher
rates on coal carriers with the un-
derstanding that the fixed price to
consumers would remain unchanged
II this procedure was followed. 1t
was pointed out that the additional
$40, 900 900 could be met by the rail-
ways through increased revenue from

the Sammies.
1t was written by enlisted men.
The music was composed by enlisted

In New York the show won on its
