COAL DEALERS ASkEl TO USE DISCRETION
Should Not Let Their Patrons
 Hoard Up Supply

W. A. Clark. president of the New
 England Coal Dealers association, has received the following letter from General John II. Shcrburnc, chair man of the special commission on the necessities of life for the State of Massa chusetts:
 Tn view of the possible bitumin- ouS coal strike and a tem porary dirni> mutton in supply, this commission feels that the dealers in bituminous coal should withstand tho demands which arc being made upon them and use their discretion in the distribution of coal. so that consumers do not get
 more than their req Sonable needs. We feel that hospitals and similar insti- tutiouS should, in so far a possible ~ have preference and that other con Sumcrs should he held 10 q reason,
 able supply. Reports have been re-
 celNcd of ipstances where consumers
 nave received very much more than
 they will need for months 10 come,
 ana 1t is our belief that this tendency
 snouId Dc checked at once as in view
 or the possible shortage, such prac-
 u"es substantially amount to hoard
 'ns as dctned hy the federal statutes" ne text of this letter applies prip-
 s,
 tcderal statutes apply in all states MT Clark has sent copies of this ] letter broadcast throughout the New england states and states that the coal nealer should consult with his competitors and endeavor to conduct l ms business in a manner which will 1 prove that the retail coal distributor 1 IS a patriotic citizen who does bus | mess m a way which deserves the comm endation of the public. He adds | that the dealer should protect him ! seN by not making definite oblisa- tons for the future and should make , sales with the understanding that or ] ders are accepted subject to dc1a,- and at whatever price is in effect ;,t ! the time tho order is delivered. la 1 Mr. Clark'S opinion. expressed in h;s
 letter, such an arrangement would ! protect not only the dealers, buf fine | community's interests. Mir. Clark says ! that no retail dealer who b.; 1 little surplus stock should risk an 1 unTarranted increase in price during 1 such a crucial time as this through i which the country is now passing ant 1 he advises the dealer ito make it ! understood that he will not counten- 1 ance profitccrinC or hoardinE. He be- 1 lieNes that such an understanding with l the consumer is an asset to the dealer President Frank Fl. Johnston of the : City Coal anl Wcod company has re- ccived a. copy of Mir. Clark's letter

 The Department of Justice had a little surprise party of it's own last evening anticipating by a few hours q series of bomb explosions and gen eral disorders which had been planned by Radicals in the United States to celebrate the anniversary of the establishment of the Russian soviet government.
