When they tell you of its bouyancy they DO

Coal Men Now
Complain They
Can't Get Cars
Big Advertising Campaign
Stirred Up Buyers, Orders

Nesc York Tribune
Washing n0ton Bureau

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-The Ma
tional Coal Association has discovered
that newspaper advertising brings re-
suits. but it is not now certain that it
always pays. The extensive "buy your
coal now advertising campaign it put
on in June resulted in a tremendous
increase in orders. Unfortunately the
association did not consult with Di-
rector General Hines of the railway
administration, with the result that it
has more orders that it has cars. For
merly the association was scoldinc
consumers for not buying, but now
.hs consumers are denouncing the pro-
ducers for not delivering.
The consumers are buying coal now.
say the coal men. but the railways are
not moving it now. This situation has
served to revive the feud between the
soft coal producers and Mr.. Hines, and
Il is expected that it will be fully
aired in the Investigation Of coal mat
ters, which subcommittee of the
Senate Interstate Commerce Commit
tee takes up tomorrow with J. D. A.
Morrow, president of the National
Coal Association, as the first witness.
In statement answering Mr.. Illness
report to the Senate that there are
enough cars supplied to handle the
coal offered the association says Mr.
Hines is talking about past condition
"a condition that existed before it
put on its advertising campaign.
That campaign is credited with re-
versng the situation, and in conse-
ouence the public is represented as
being as eager to buy now as it was
formerly Indifferent. Mr.. Hines re-
terred to the producers advertising in
his statement, but rather intimated
that it was bluff to stir the public
into panicky buying and afford an ex-
cuse for high prices of coal. Anyway
he held that if as much coal was
needed as represented it would be i'm
possible to handle it with the present
railway equipment.
In support of the producers conten-
ton the geographical surveys report
Of August % says: mine operating
time reported lost in the week of Au-
gust 8, because of car shortage, was
the highest recorded in any one week
since March, 1915" at which time the
mines were making record produc-
ton on account of war demands.
Moreover the report says the "lack Of
market has ceased to be the principal
factor limiting the production in most
districts and car shortage, or more
broadly speaking transportation dis
ability. of greatest Importance"

RATES TAKEN
UP BY SUPREME COURT

Washington. April 21.-Steps look
ing to early determination of the gov
ernments authority under the joint
resolution of Congress, by which rail-
roads and telephone systems of the
country was taken over, to fix intra
state rates, were taken up by the Su-
preme Court in agreeing to expedite
consideration of test cases brought
under the resolution. The court Tx.
ed May for hearing arguments and
final decisions before the court adj
journs in June for the summer was
considered probable by court Off
Gals.
Three cases in all will be argued.
One is an appeal from South Dakota
Supreme Court DEGREES denying the
authority of the Postmaster General
to increase telephone toll rates. An
! appeal from the North Dakota Su-
preme Court denies the Director
General of railroads has power TO i'm
crease freight and passenger rates in
that state and enjoys the Northern
Pacific railroad from carrying out the
! idirectorgenerars orders. The third
| case is an appeal from Massachusetts
| upholding the Postmaster General
and dismissing proceedings instituted
, by the state to prevent the New Eng
land Telephone and Telegraph Co
from increasing its rates.
The court had planned to close ar
guments for the terms on May 2, bu1
owing to the Importance of these cas-
es it was decided to set aside the fol
lowing Monday fo rthe purpose o1
hearing arguments. Officials declar-
ed it a very extraordinary thing fol
the court to extend the time for hear
ing argument after having fixed {
time for closing the hearing of suit

Washington. April 21.-The Russian
embassy here made public today the
outline of the plan presented to the
peace conference by Russian repre-
sentatives at Paris to solve the Rus
sian problem. 1t asks recognition as
de facto of all national authorities
"who are inspired by ideals and en-
joy the support of the population"
pending the setting up of a federation
Of Russian states.
Tchaikovsky, Sazonoff and MakIa
koff signed the memorandum embody-
ing this program, Under it the allies
would recognize the~Russian boundar-
les of 1914. except for ethnographicaI
Poland, and would support democratic
defacto authorities in their struggle
against Bolshevism and anarchy.
Private adyices received here re-
Gently from London were to the effect
that the United States and the allies
already had determined upon recogni-
ton of the Omsk government. No in
formation has been received as to the
reception accorded the more elaborate
plan OF the Russian spokesmen.
