This is defined in Sections 1, and 6
Of the Criminal Code above quoted.
f2l The preaching Of anarchy

done by printing and circulating lit

openly advocating the unlawful OBJ

ful and violent destruction of in

NOTICE

It is necessary that coal shall be
used only for essential purposes. Pub
lie utilities consuming coal should
discontinue to furnish power, heat
and light to non-essential industries.
and should only consume sufficient
coal to produce enough light, power
and heat to meet the actual urgent
needs of the people. Advertising
signs and displays of various kinds
necessitating the use of coal should
be curtailed and no coal should be
distributed for such purposes. Pur-
suant to this policy l have requested
the Railroad Administration in the
distribution of coal row or hereafter
in its possession to limit distribution
to these essential and urgent uses as
far a practicable. Until the condi-
tions warrant a change, the distribu-
tion of coal will be limited to the first
five classes of the priority list. Re-
tail dealers who distribute coal for
household requirements. heating hotels
hospitals, buildings etc, should take
every precaution to see that coal IS
only delivered where it is absolutely
required and then only in such limit
ed quantities that the supply NAV be
distributed widely and prevent suffer
ing. The State ard other local
authorities can materially aid in in
structing and supervising such dis
tr'bUtion By retail dealers, and the
U. S. Government viii be glad to
leave the supervision and control #
such distribution by retail dealers o.-
tirely to any State, County or Muni-
palitv which may make provision
thereafter The distribution to the
retail dealers must necessarilv be adj

tration in pursuance Of the order al
ready made by the U. s. Fuel A1n1in-
istration in carrying ont the priority
which has been prescribed under the
