Government Plans
 Seizure of Oil

San Francisco, July 26.-Six United States destroyers drew up at the load ing plant of the Associated Oil com pany in this city today with orders to commandeer the plant and seize 5O0,- 900 gallons of fuel oil for their own use, following contest over the price of the fuel between the navy and the company. It was reported that the demands of the navy were not resisted and that loading started immediately.
 Navy authorities announced they were taking the oil at the navys own price of $1.72 barrel. The oil com pany was told to resort to court ac- tion if it wished to obtain it's own prices, which ranged around $2.
 The commanders of the vessels were ordered to use all means within the navy's power to obtain the oil. When the vessels berthed at the company's wharf, the company, after brief par ley, connected the vessels with the tanks.

Say Plans Will Obviate Shortage
 of Soft Coal

Washington, July 26.-No coal shortage for next winter need be feared if the present plans of bitu- executives, backed by the interstate commerce commission are made thor oughly effective, the National Coal association tonight declared in for mal statement. It was added that cooperation on the part of miners themselves, if not forthcoming, would endanger the whole program, which is based upon a priority of car sup ply for mines and upon priority in transportation for coal bound to the northwest and New England.
 There is real need for action in the matter, the statement also as serted, analysizing statistics furnish ed by the geological survey. These figures were said to show that if the present rate of output was maintained until next April 1, the aggregate production would be 516,720,000 tons, which the association estimates would be less than the country requires by some thirty million tons. The fur ther estimate is made that produc- tion today is thirty five million tons behind the schedule which should be maintained to supply all needs next winter. With transportation priori- ties in effect, and mines in operation however, the statement concluded, the present and potential winter short ages alike can be obviated and the present speculative prices brought 1 down to normal.

 COX FOR PRESIDENT
Democratic Nominee is Likely to Become Popular
 Idol

DAYTON, OHIO, July 26.-Governor Cox made considerable progress to- day on his address for August z, ac- cepting the democratic presidential nomination. The governor found, however, that he was unable to car ny out his plan for docking" himself in his library to work on the speech But between several visitors, the can didate put in some good licks on the hurried drafting job.
 The address, the governor said, will be "just long enough to tell the story" but because of it's embryonic stage he could make no definite pre- dictions as to length. He is to send it in installments, as subjects are completed, to his newspaper office here for composition and then he promised to fuse the blue pencil wig orously" on proofs to eliminate every unnecessary word. Between shifts on his address, the governor today con- ferred with Judge J. G. Johnson of the Ohio supreme court who made the Cox nominating speech at the San Francisco convention. It was their first meeting since the convention.
 "The western people seem to real ize Governor Cox is one of them, in their ideals and aspirations" said Judge Johnson, who toured the west en route to his home at Springfield. "They believe Governor Cox is for the people. They refer to him as Jimmy like Theodore Roosevelt was called Teddy it indicates strong feeling of personal interest and re- gard, as l believe Gov. Cox is the first presidential candidate since Teddy whose first name is being popularly and generally used"
 Another caller of the governors was Oscar E. Bradfute of Xenia, Ohio, of the Ohio farm bureau and a di- rector of the federal farm bureau as well as former member of President Wilson's industrial commission. Agri- cultural affairs were the principal topics of his conference with the governor, who also had social call today from John D. Spreckcls, Jr, of California.
