St. Louis Replaces Coal
With Coke, Oil and TASTE

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 3O-Industries here
are employing every possible substi
tute for coal, using oil, coke, coal sift
ings and extensively prepared fuel.
The Guaranteed Products Corpora
ton, according to George w Brown,
president, is using oil almost entirely.
The Brodcrick g. Bascom Rope Com
pany. although forced to let off several
hundred men OF the night force, is
still operating during the day, utilizing
coke in place Of coal. The Hamilton
Brown Shoe Company is burning coke
in place of coal. The st. Louis Basket
and Box Association, having no coal
on hand, is burning waste materials
from the basket manufacture
Many heads of industries say that
the use Of oil in place of coal necessi-
tates an expensive change and they Will
close down rather than install the
change for the time being. The Amer
lean Paper Products Company, employ
ing 500 men, Will shut down within
two days The Western Cartridge
Company, of Alton, is letting OFF is
force Of 900 men. About twenty
large plants have been closed down
completely for several days and thou
sands arc out of work The plants will
not open until the strike is settled.

Denies Fabulous Profits

letter to Secretary Glass
Asking Il Correct Statement
New York Tribune

4NeW OTh Tribune
Washington Burecu
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30. A. D.
Morrow, vice president of the National
Coal Association, formerly an Official
of the United States Fuel Administra-
ton. IN an open letter to Secretary of
the Treasury Glass to-day denied en-
phatically that the bituminous coal
operators have made fabulous profits.
Secretary Glass made a public state
ment last week in which he said that
the operators had made between 100
and $50 per cent in profits in 1917. n
reply, Mr. Morrow said in part:
For the entire bituminous industry
in 1917 to make profits of from 100
per cent to 150 per cent on invested
capital would require a total profit of
upwards Of $1,500,000. According to
the United States Geological Survey
report. entitled coal in 1917 page 923
the total gross receipts of the opera
tors for all the bitumnous coal pro
duced in 1917 was only $l.249,272 ,S37.
Hence the total gross receipts, before
deducting operating expenses, we're
less than the total profits which would
have to be made out Of those receipts
to Justify the statement of your ex.
perts. This indicates the ridiculous
nature Of their casual generalzations.

Statement by Conference
The statement made public an
nounced that the conference had unan-
imously agreed on the following recon-
mendatons:
"That more complete fuel admin
istration organization for the country
be perfected by the appointment at
once Of fuel dministrator in each
state, to be recommended by the Gov
ernors, to be compensated by the Fed
eral government, and TO have full
charge and control Of all coal available
for his state.
"1u view Of the statements by Di-
rector General Hines, to the effect that
the production of soft coal is now 90
to SO per cent Of normal, and in view
of reports from other sources to the
effect that the production of hard coal
is now above normal, all coal mined
and in stock in the United States. both
soft and hard, should be distributed
equitably among the forty-cight states
on the basis of their needs as de-
veloped during the war, regardless Of
the state where mined.
"That rigid and uniform rules and
regulations for the greatest conserva-
tion of coal throughout the Union be
forthwith established, promulgated and
enforced

the production Of coal.

the governors conference, be directed
and delegated to proceed to Washing

seriousness of the situation in the
state and to remain in that city tenn
porariy as q representative of the

Regional fuel committees virtually
took over control of fuel stocks to- day
and hundreds of non-essential indus
tries will be closed. In Chicago tho
regional officials organized local
committee Of coal dealers, who must
submit sworn statements Of supplies
on hand and deliver no coal to non
essential industries and institutions
T. W. Proctor, chairman of the
Northwestern regional committee, ex-
planned that the action meant that the
dealers really owned no coal, that it
was now in the hands Of the govern
ment to be distributed as the govern
ment directed.
Mr.. Proctor explained that the sit
uation would call for elimination of
palatial trains and parlor cars While
the mines now in operation are produc-
ing better than 40 per cent of normal.
