cording to officials of the weather
bureau.
The day in all probability will be
cold and cloudy, it was stated, with
no prospect of snow in sight.
Although a snowstorm for Christ

in the opinion of the forecaster. will

have hardly melted enough to pro-

There was skating today on the Zoo
creek near the concrete bridge. The
tidal basin and other haunts of skat-
ers in this city, however, We're judged
unsafe to permit skating.
Reports have been received that the
Potomac river. near its mouth. is con-
Gested with ice. Vessels. it is stated,

REMINDER OF CHRISTMAS.
Children of Steel Strikers to Get
Candy as Gift.

PITTSBURGH, December ga bag
of candy and an orange will be the
Christmas gift of many local relief
committees to the children of striking
steel workers in this district. While
the distribution will not be universal,
it will be SO general as to bring cheer
to scores of little foreigners whose
fathers answered the call of the ma
tional steel strike. committee and
since that time have been out.
The gifts were a part of the regular
weekly distribution of food for the
strikers and their families, and came
from such funds as the local organiza-
tons were able to gather for that pur-
pose. The national committee decided
that it could not go into the field of
Christmas giving, and confined it's op-
erationS to the usual rationS.

tentative save to shut down the
mines.
Disqualification Among Miners.
Serious dissatisfaction is reported
among miners. in dispatches from
Charleston, due to the shortage of
cars. The miners wh9 returned to
work assert that it is in the power
of the railroad administration to rem
edy the car shortage, and demand
that steps be taken at once to do so.
Lack of work Immediately before
operators alike, is certain to breed
further discomfort among the men.
AS it is customary lin the coal fields
for thousands of miners to remain
away from work during the entire
week between Christmas and New
Year. it is asserted that another
shortage of Unanimous coal after the
holidays is by no means a remote
possibility.
Say Car Shortage Not Serious.
Officia1s of the railroad administers
ton said today that there may be
local car shortages in some fields,
but that if this is true the shortage
of cars is not serious and that it is
due to unavoidable causes.
During the coal shortage ensuing
from the miners strike. it was stated,
1t was necessary to divert cars of
coal from original destinations to
other parts of the country. In this
way cars that ordinarily would have
been used in one section were sent
to far distant cities, and slow freight
schedules and bad weather have made
it impossible to get these cars back.
Orders have been issued by Director
General Hines that all coal cars di-
verified from original destinations
must be returned to points of produc-
ton with all possible dispatch. Rail-
road administration employees or
others who interfere, even passively
with speedy return of such cars, it
is announced. will be removed.

BOYCOTT HOLIDAY
TURKEY PROF|TEER,
FAIR PRICE ADVICE
Committee Declares Market
Is Being Manipulated by
Some in Trade.

Boycott the dealers who are put
ting up the price of Christmas tur-
keys. The market is being manipu-
lated and the best retaliation the pub
lie can make Is not to buy.
This was the advice given in a
statement issued today by the Dis
tricu fair price committee.
Still Trying to Raise Prices.
Inquiry this morning reveals that
turkeys for the Christmas trade are
being the subject of manipulation"
says the statement. 1T is being done
through an eXaggeration of the law
of supply and demand. The wholesal lie
price the first of the week was from
to cents higher than at 'Tnanksgiv-
ing. and there appears to be a deter
mined effort, especially on the part of
raisers, to boost prices much higher.
The large packers, who usually supply
the major portion of the cold storage
turkeys sold here, have abandoned the
held. and the consequence is that
smaller wholesalers, as well as retail
ers and consumers, are scurrying
around to get their supply from near
by points in Maryland and Virginia.
Sensing possible increased de-
mand, farmers seem to be withhold
ing sales and demanding inflated
prices.
While dealers who have paid more
for their Christmas turkeys than for
their Thanksgiving stock must pass
the increase along to the consumers.
the fair price committee is prepared
to keep careful watch over the mar
ket to prevent unnecessary boosting
of prices in this city. Any one found
taking an unfair advantage of the
situation will be dealt with rigor-
ously.
POwerless Outside District.
1.-THE committee is powerless, how
ever. to take action to prevent
manipulation or profiteering by rails
erS outside of the District Never
theless it may be pointed out that
this is a. splendid opportunity for the
public to exercise its power of boy
colt. Turkeys are not a commodity
that can be sold every day in the
year, and if those raised during the
past season are not sold for the
Christmas trade they stand very good
chances of not being sold at all.
IF any persons now holding back
the movement Of turkeys prefer to
hold them through next year, either
in cold storage or on foot, bearing
the loss of shrinkage or feed, to SELL
ing them at reasonable prices this
season, the public could give them
the privilege of doing So"
