EUROPE FACES PROSPECT
OF ACUTE COAL SITUATION
Berlin Predicts That Lack Of Fuel
Will Have a Tendency to Re-
vive Bolshevism.

BERLIN, Friday. August Is (by the
Associated Press).-That. all Europe
is facing disaster in the coal situation
is the common opinion of industrial
and shipping leaders who have been
comforting on the subject here fos the
last few days. Walther Fehling of
Hamburg, a shipping expert. in dis
cussing prospects for the coming win
ter, so far as Germany is concerned,
declares the fuel situation will posi-
lively prove a more potent reviver of
acute bolshevism than will food.
THE question is, can the hungry
people stand added privation and
freezing for three or four months?"
he said Machine guns may subdue
bolshev ism, but they cannot yield
coal. Their effect is purely negative
while the present critical situation
calls for positive accomplishments
Experts estimate the shortage in
the German coal output for the next
twelve months will be approximately
100, 000, 900 tons, and predict the United
States will be called on to Offset the
continental shortage.

Dormitories for Women.

Notwithstanding that the armistice
was signed months ago and automati-

there is more or less of a turnover of
roomers at the dormitories. This week
but eighteen young women left the
housing quarters. while there were
700 applications on file for rooms.
Every evening during this month.
according to Miss James. the accom-
modations have hardly been adequate
to meet demands. 1t was necessary
to open up for callers three 'emer-
gency rooms. The dormitories accom-
modate 1872 persons.
