Four Hundred Men Laid of,

Cedar Rapids Dec. Cedar Rapids
felt tho first painful grip Of the coal
famine yesterday afternoon when no.
tees were posted at the Quaker Oats
mills laying off 400 employees until the
situation improves.
The curtailment Of production IL
due directly to the coal shortage.
There Is almost an unlimited de-
mand for the products Of the big mills.
They are behind with their orders and
are 5ust entering upon their busiest
season. But the coal famine. which Is
rapidly becoming acute locally, COM
pels them to shut down.
The Quaker Oats mills do not
manufacture their own power, but
purchase It from the Iowa Railway
and Light Company. When the pres
ent coal strike began the power COM
pany had 10000 tons Of coal IN the
| great pit ut Prairie Creek. With the
reasonable expectation Of renewing its
supply from time to time, the officials
OK the power company felt safe for the
| winter.
Public utilities are on tho priority
| list but they are allowed coal for
public utility purposes only and not
Tor supplying power to industrial
| plants. Therefore the Iowa Railway
and Light Company has been compel.
| led to notify the Quaker Oats Com
pany that 1t can not furnish power to
operate the mills at full capacity.
