HEAVY Cut IN
COAL YIELD BY
CAR SHORTAGE
Operators Tell Senate Committee That
Radical Miners Are Trying To
Install Soviet Methods
In Mining

Shortage Of cars In the coal fields
has cut production Of bitum1nous coal
100000 tons in 10 weeks and threat
en- to bring about q recurrence Of the
coal famine of 1917-1s1s unless check
ed without delay, according to testi-
money given by John Callahan, traf-
fic manager Of the National Coal AS
soc1atlon before the senate committee
investigating the coal situation at it's
first days hearing here. During the
two weeks ending August and g.
Mr.. Callahan said, "car shortage caus-
ed the bituminous coal mines of the
country to lose approximately $500, 900
tons OF coal, enough to supply the en-
tire state of New Jersey for ten
months. The loss in ten weeks has
been sufficient to supply all the New
England states for eight months"
Mr.. Callahan declared that if there
are not cars at mines 1t is impossi-
BILE to operate the mines to full time
capacity. The shortage of cars had
come, he said, at the time demand
for coal is Increasing and at q time
when railroad efficiency should be at
q maximum
IF the bituminous coal operators of
the country are given sufficient cars
to take away the coal they mine"
Mr.. Callahan said, and if there are
not labor disturbances to prevent the
operation Of their mines, they can sup
ply sufficient fuel to meet the coun-
try's requirements next fall and win
ter. II they are not supplied with
more cars, there undoubtedly will be a
repetition of the coal shortage of 1917
Is, at least to some degree"
=. Shortage Of cars is not alone the
only threatening situation in the in
dustry. However, according to Harry
N. Taylor Of Kansas City, president of
the Association, who preceded Mr.. Cal
lahan on the witness stand, the 600,-
600 miners employed throughout the
nation are about to formulate demands
for higher wages, Mr.. Taylor declared.
The more radical among the number,
he said, were endeavoring to apply the
methods of the Soviet government of
Russia to the bituminous industry. II
their counsel should sway the more
conservative Of their number and ex.
tremely radical demands should be
made, which could not be acceded TO-
Mr.. Taylor said he doubted If the op.
orators could mine a pound Of coal"
ITO save the public from calamity. -

FLORIDA SCHOOL THE BEST

Miss L. B. Davis, superintendent of
the industrial school, who has been
absent on her vacation for about three
weeks, returned home Friday. She had
very pleasant time, most of her va
cation being spent with her mother
at Erwin, Tenn, she also passing a
few days at the famous summer resort
on the summit Of the Blue Ridge at
Alta, N. C..
The state board of commissions ex-
tended Miss Davis leave several days,
so she could visit the Tennessee in
dustrial schools, one for boys at Nash
vile and the other for girls at Tulla-
homa. Miss Davis admits that she
is partial to her cwn school, but with
all discount for that does not think the
Tennessee Girls School equal to that
of Florida. She was very glad to get
home, and her girls were doubly glad
to see her. She sent them many re-
minders while she was gone, among
them big boxfull of juicy mountain
apples.
It is high testimony to the efficiency
of the Ocala school that it almost ran
itself during the superintendent va
cation. Miss Davis left Miss Pauline
Stearns, young lady of about seven
teen, as acting superintendent, and
with the aid of Miss Hinton, the
housekeeper, and the older, more re-
sponsible pupils everything went
along smoothly. The school has be-
come home as we'll as school to the
girls, and most of them are more hap
py and contented there than anywhere
else.

MEAT WASTED
Western Live Stock Man Has Small
Opinion of the Federal Trade
Commission
CAssociated Press)

Washington, Aug. 30-Interjecting
some sharp advice and warning to
city dwellers as to meat prices, west
err stockmen yesterday laid before
the Senate agriculture committee fur
ther protests against the Kenyon
Hendricks bills to regulate the pack
ing industry.
"I'm going home and tell my neigh
bors We'll have to curtail production
to the point where consumers will eat
the whole<beef carcass" said George
T. Donaldson, president of the Kansas
Livestock Association.
With j. H. Mercer, cattle commits
sioner of that state, and others, he
said he had been investigating the
distribution of meats in all the larger
eastern cities.
Fright in your city of Washington" !"
he told the committee, GIVE found the
forequarters of beef selling to the re-
taller for eight cents a pound, and
selling to the consumer at 80 cents.
We learn ther are 700 places here
where meat is sold, and we think that
200 would be ample, and reduce the
cost to the consumers, too"
Mr.. Donaldson opposed the regula-
tory measures and Senator Kenyon,
republican, of Iowa, asked him if he
had read the federal trade commits
sion report on the subject.
"I have" replied Donaldson, "and
l regret to say have not as high a
regard for the federal trade commits
sion as an American citizen of nv age
ought to have"

The funeral services of the late
John L. Carney will be held tomorrow
afternoon at 5 o'clock at the under

TO allow friends and relatives who
were at a distance to arrive and pay
their last respects to the dead.

Summerfield lodge of Masons, and the
services will be in charge of that or

Austrians Will Have Five Days

Mr.. Taylor said, "it will be necessary
to overcome three things: first, that
we do not have an extraordinarily Sc
we're winter; second, that the railroad
administration move the coal in a reg
ular manner, and, third, that by effort
of the miners, we produce at least H.
100000 tons of bituminous coal weekly
for the remaining nineteen weeks Of
the year." This is more than has been
produced in any week during the year
thus far.
All wage agreements between miners
and operators, Mr.. Taylor said, would
expire with the proclamation of peace
by the president. The miners had
already decided, Mr.. Taylor said he
was informed, in one section, to try
to obtain a six hour working day, as
against eight hours now, a five day
week and an increase in pay. They
will meet in Cleveland, O., September
9th, he said, to decide on what de.
mands to make of the operators, and
there will be q Joint conference be-
twene operators and miners at Buffalo
September 25th. IF this conference
Of September 25th fails in agreement
Mr.. Taylor said, 81 do not know
whether we are going to be able tc
mine any coal or not. l very seriously
doubt whether we will, with that con
dition confronting US in the mining
world. The situation is very serious
If that goes into effect there is little
or no hope of overcoming a very Sc
rious shortage of coal this winter anC
great suffering in the country"
Miners were given q substantial in
crease in wages by the president dur
ing the days Of the fuel administra
tion. Mr.. Taylor said, and 1t was no
uncommon in many fields for the in
dustrious men, in times of full-timt
operation, to earn $16 a day or more
But they are getting restless, he said
Already the more radical elemen
are determined to put into effect thu

JOHN L. CARNEY
(Tampa Tribune)

The death of John L. Carney at his
home, in the Carney Groves, Lake
Weir, Thursday morning has thrown
a pail over many of the people of
Florida who have ben interested in the
citrus industry and it's development.
Mr.. Carney was a son of the late John
Z. Carney, a pioneer in Florida or
ange growing, and had been actively
in charge of the properties for some
years. He was a lover of Florida, a
practical orange man, and believer
in holding up the standard of quality
in both manhood and fruit. He will be
missed, and his family will have the
sympathies of all Florida. Mr.. Car.
ney was the brother of two of Tam
pas most loved women, Mrs. w. B.
Gray and Mrs. Morton TURNKEY.
