FACES COAL SHORTAGE

LONDON June % Correspondence
age of more than 100000 tons of
coal. as compared with the 1918 out
put, is faced by Great Britain in the
coming year, according to Sir Auck-
land Geddes, president of the board
of trade. He announced in the house
Of commons that for the twelve
months from July is next, when the
miners seEen-hour day comes into ef-
is estimated at between 214.00o.00O
and 217.0oo.o00 tons. In 1913 the out
put was $1,000, 900 tons.
Those newspapers which cham =
pioned the miners in their successful
fight for a shorter working day re-
fuse to concede the claim made by
neSsimistic prophets that reduction in
hours means a corresponding reduc-
ton in output but there is general
agreement that war strain and in
dustrlal unrest have caused de-
cline for the moment in production
per man. and a serious view is taken
of the situation. Even if the amount
of coal kept for home consumption Is
held down to the amount used las'
year on strict rationing basis. 1876
coo. 900 tons, the export surplus avail
able Will amount to about 10000, 00t
tons.
This. it is said will have highly
serious results. for not only mus
England's continental allies go with
out the coal for which they are al
most entirely dependent on Great
Britain. but this country itself Will
be tremendously handicapped by the
fact that it no longer Will be able to
rely upon coal as a substitute in for
eign trade for currency. England, ac-
limo fn
will now have to pay for her imports
in other goods or in money.
The increase in the price of coal
for domestic consumption is various
lv estimated at from S1.0S ton by
Sir Auckland Geddes to about So by
the manager of a Welsh iron and coal
company. This is expected to increase
prices m practically all branches OF
industry. Newspapers say the coal
problem affects the entire national
life of this country and its world po-
sition as a trader as well.

BELGIANS MENACED AGAIN
BY GERMANS IN REPUBLIC
Huns Now Want to Appropriate
the National Colors of That
Country for Their Emblem.

BRUSSELS, June 25 Correspond
ence of the Associated Press).-Bel-
gian patriotic societies are forming
to take action to prevent the Germa n
republic from adopting the Belgian
national colors-black, yellow and
red-for it's flag. Intense Indignation
is manifested, and this is a bit height
ened by the plea that the colors in
the new German emblem will be dis
posed horizontally instead OF YER
tically.
1t is generally supposed that the
Belgian colors of today were chosen
by the patriots of 1880, but the revo-
lutionists of that year merely took
for themselves the black, yellow and
red which had been legendary in
Flanders and the Brahant since the
middle ages.
The princes of Flanders bore on
their arms black lion on a field of
gold and those of Brabant golden
lion on a field of black The trappings
of both were red. From the thir-
teenth century, therefore. the Bel
sian colors have been black, yellow
and red.
An argument against the use Of
the colors by the Germans is that
the Belgians have actually employed
the black, yellow and red horizontal
" in their emblems-notab bic in their
mercantile f1ags-so they consider
they still have a priority on that
disposition of the colors as well as
the vertical use. The horizontal bars
were adopted by the patriots who
overthrow the Austrians in 1889. In
1880 the first flag to fly from the
Hotel de Willie in Brussels was the
horizontal-barred black. yellow and
red.
The Belgians scorn the plea of the
Germans that they have the right to
use the colors because of their use
by the ancient Germa mic empire, of
which Austria was the center They
assert that the confusion resulting
from the employment by Germany as
well as Belgium of the black. yellow
and red would be embarrassing to the
nation which had fought four years
to keep its colors unsullied.
