DR.. GARFIELD QUITS
AS FUEL DIRECTOR;
Mr.. HINES ACTING
Retiring Official Opposed De-
lay in Publishing Note to
Miners, 1t Is Said.

DR.. H. A. Garfield last night resigned
as federal fuel administrator. His resig-
nation was forwarded to President Will
son today by Secretary Tumulty. "Of
course it will be accepted" it was said
at the White House. ~.
Functions Of the fuel administrator
handled recently through the railroad
administration under DR.. Garfeld's
authority will be continued under .Di-
| rector General Hines, it was said. This
does not necessarily mean that Mr..
Hines will be made fuel administrator
I In DR.. Garfield's place, it was added.
I'VE are all sorry that DR.. Garfield
feels as he does-he's done fine job,
said Secretary Tumulty.
The view at the White House is that
DR.. Garfield was not ignored in the set
, Element of the strike. Dr. Garfield's
| friends say he does not hold the view
that he was; that his position is that
the government should not have been
| put in the attitude of having surren-
dered to the miners.
: Disagree Over Statement.
1t developed today that there was a
Presidents statement to the public on
the coal strike should have been made
public last Saturday night before it was
| carried to indianapolis.
The President, White House officials
said. directed that the statement be
made public Saturday night. DR..
| Garfield understood this would be
| done and on Sunday he told Secretary
Tumulty he believed the statement
| should be given out Immediately. The
Presidents secretary disagreed and
1t was said, assumed the RESPONSE
, bility
J The miners union officials. were
said to have told Attorney Cen
publication of the statement before
the Indianapolis conference < would
| embarrass them in their efforts. to
have the miners accept the President's
proposal. The miners request was
made after DR.. Garfield had left the
conference officials explained. :,
At the White House it was said
! that DR.. Garheld's letter of resigna-
ton was not available. DR.. Garfield
declined to discuss his resignation or
his letter to the President.
The general fuel situation and re-
s3rictions on the use of coal were
under review today by the central
| coal committee, to determine whether
more drastic measures. to conserve
coal were necessary. Consumption has
been so much greateE3than produc-
| ton that officials here are alarmed
at the rapid depletion of reserve
stocks. ,g.
J. No substantial increase in the
amount of coal mined is expected-he-
fore Monday.
Railroad administration figures show
! that on December 10. the last day for
which complete reports have been
made. there were moved 1873 cars
of coal, as compared with the daily
average of 1882 cars in the banneS
week of October. Officials said a re-
| turn to maximum production was inn
perative if disaster was not to result.
Resignation of Fuel Administrator
Garfield will not affect the imposition
| OF further restrictions should such a
step be necessary. He has delegated
| hiskpowers as affecting distribution to
Director General Hines. who has full
authority to act as he sees fit.

urges holders to keep their stamps
until maturity.
He states that War Savings Stamps
belong only to the individual who first
purchased them and that people who
offer to buy stamps at low premium
are violating the letter of the law in
so doing. Men and women selling
stamps are not only losing money
which rightfully belongs to them, but
are aiding INSCRIPTIONS agents to
reap profts.
