GERMAN CAPITAL NOW
FACING COAL FAMINE
Serious Shortage OF Fud For
seen In Berlin By
Officials.

Berlin, BY Mail. l.l-German official
dom secs ahead the spccter Of serious
coal shortage.
Just as all Europe has suffered, and
viii suffer again the coming winter,
because of lowered coal output, 50 Ger
many anticipates that she faces serT.
Gus problem in supplying industries,
railroads gas works and homes with suf-
fieient coal
Recently the economic ministry and
officials Of the state have come togcth
er to consider the outlook And the
first result Of their deliberations was Ia
let the public know that the situation
is thoroughly serious.
For the first five months Of the year
the German coal production ran only %
per cent as much as in the same pcriou
a year ago. And, in addition to this
fact, she had no surplus from the pre-.
vious year, and during June ard July
had to contend with railroad strikes
which seriously hampercd coal deliver.

been mine strilSes, aud on the whole
there is lowered morale and dc.
creased staff in the coal industry.
AT present, the railroads and gas
works are living from hand to mouth
as regards their supply Of Goals. In
these circumstances, and with only
slight prospect that coal production tho
remainder Of the year can be speeded
up, the officials felt that the prospect,
for winter arc, indeed, dubious,
Moreover, tho fact that the peac,
treaty calls for abandonment of certain
eoal territory and for certain coal deliv
cries to France makes the problem, az
FAR as Germany is concerned, one Of IN
creased difficulty.
Officials predict that industry viii
not reach anything like a normal rate oi
production until well into next year, Il
then, unless a large lsrger coal suppl,
can be turned out.
While Frances coal production fol
off because of ruined mines and dc
creased labor power, Germany $ produc
tion has been decreasing through de
creased labor power and through lesson
ed morale. There has been much dis
satisfaction among the miners, and thci
demands earlier in the year require,
shorter hours and more pay. With IN,
coning of winter, transportation nat
urally will be worse than ii is now, 81

Mr. Maruney also calls attention. to

about to fall 10 pieces which do not
add TO the artistic value Of the city.
He calls especial attention to the old
