Both Senator Sutherland and Con-
gresham Goodykoontz made trips 10
the office of Railway Director Hines
this week to confer upon a number
Of matters important to the coal trade.
One was to affect some arrangement
by which a more immediate track can
be kept by the operators on the des-
tlnation OF their coal taken in charge
by the Railroad Administration and
diverted, and 10 work out, some plan
by which the operators will receive
pay for their coal more promptly AS
lit is working now, payments are not
coming in fast enough to meet payrOIIs
at the mines that are working and
unless credit on large scale extend.
ed by the banks, the smaller and in
dependent operators find themselves
in an embarrassing situation. One
scheme suggested Is that the Railroad
Administration issue certificates on
the coal taken over, which will be
handled by the local banks and later
by regional reserve banks. Smaller
operators assert that unless something
like this is done, they can't keep
their mines going, because they Will
not be table to meet the payrollS 1t
is expected that some satisfactory plan
will be worked out on this, as well
as other complaints of the operators,
as a result of tho conference with
Director Hines that Senator suther
land and CongrdSsman Goodykoontz
have had.
