BY Committee

Washington, Dec. 3.-Investigation
of the Ford-Newberry senatorial elec-
ton contest from Michigan was au-
thorized today by the senate which
adopted a resolution by Senator Pom

No roll call was necessary and
there was less than minutes discus

previously had been approved by the
privilege and elections committee
which will conduct the inquiry.
Hearings under the resolution are
not expected to start until after the
Christmas holidays and they may be
confined to the election since the al
legged fraud during the primary now
is being dealt with by the court.

to Make Adjustment of

Washington, Dec. g. Mine opera.
tors frDm all parts of the country
gathered today to work out details OF
the fourteen percent wage increase
suggested by the government for bi-
luminous coal miners. While the ses.
sions were officially restricted to op-
| orators located in central competitive
field representatives from other sec.
tions were on hand to gather facts on
which to base their own adjustments
1t was SAID the findings of the cen,
trail field committee probably would
be submitted to Fuel Administrator
Garfield for ratification but that sew
eral days would be needed to work
out problems presented.
Continued optimism in official cir.
cles was marked altho production fig
ures available showed no increase in
daily tonnage. This Is now estimated
semi-officially at better than forty per
cent of normal.
Washington, Dec. 3.--With reports
coming in from scattered points o.
miners returning to work in large
groups there was ray Of hope in
Washington today that the acute stage
Of the national coal shortage was near,
ing an end. Some officials ventured
the opinion that by the end of the
week coal production would be In
creased to the point Of safety but tha,
|probably another week would be re,
quired before the country as whole
would begin to feel the beneficial ef-
fects.
Meanwhile the government was
showing no relaxation in the enforce.
ment of strict coal rationing.

roads Here On Method Of
Distribution

Consumption OF coal by non-essen
tial industries must be either curtail-
ed or discontinued is the order issued
by DR.. Harry A. Garfield, federal fuel
administrator. DR.. Garfield has wire
Ethe following. instructions and infor-
nation to the local offices of the Nor
thern Pacific and the 500 railroads:
1T is necessary thal coal shall be
used only tor essential purposes. Pub
lie utilities consuming coal should dis
continue TO furnish power, heat and
light to nOn-essential industries and
should only consume sufficient coal TO
produce enough light, power and heat
to meet the actual urgent needs OF
the people.
Advertising Signs Prohibited
Advertising signs and displays OF
various kinds necessitating the use OF
coal should be curtailed anu no coal
should be tribuced for such pur-
poses. Pursuant to this policy l have
requested the railroad administration
in the distribution of coal now or
hereafter in its possession 70 limit
distribution to those essential and ur-
gent uses as far as practicable. Until
the conditions warrant change, the
distribution of coal will be limited to
the first five classes of the priority
list.
"Retail dealers who distribute coal
for household requirements, heating
hotels, buildings, hospitals, etc,
should take every precaution to see
that coal is only delivered where it
is absolutely required and then only
in such limited quantities that the
supply be distributed evenly and pre-
vent suffering. The state and other
local authorities can materially aid in
inspecting and supervising such dis
tribution by retail dealers and the
United States government will be
glad to leave the supervision and con-
troll of such distribution by retail
dealers entirely to any state, county
or municipality which may make pro,
vision thereof.
Priorities Must be Observed
"The distribution to the retail deal
ers must necessarily be administered
by the railroad administration in pur-
suance of the orders already made by
tho United States, fuel administra
ton in carrying out the pr.orities
which have been prescribed under the
Lever act"
1nasmuch as the fuel situation in
this state is entirely different from
that in the central competitive field Of
West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Illinois, Indiana and other central
states many portions Of Dr.. Gartield's
message are not applicable to North
Dakota. At the present time Bismarck
and the surrounding territory is re.
ceiving practically all of the coal it
requires and there Is no serious fuel
shortage in prospect.
No attempt has been made by the
state, county or city authorities to
regulate the distribution of coal in
this vicinity and no instructions have
been issued regarding the use OF fuel
to furnish light for advertising signs
and to furnish light, neat and power
to so-called non-essential industries.
