Washington, July 10.-Adeauate
facilities for coal shipment is the
principal remedy for abnormal spe-
culative prices, J. D. A. Morrow, vice
president of the National Coal Asso-
citation. today told the interstate
commerce commission in making an
appeal for a continuation of thirty
day priority orders for open-top cars
at bituminous coal mines.
Acute shortage of coal will pre-
vail as long as there is an inadeuuate
supply OF cars at the mines, he as
serted. At least 545. .00O,0 ,0O0l tons of
coal will be required for the current
year ending March 81, the witness
stated, much of which will be needed
TO make up a shortage of $4,000 600
tons that ordinarily would have been
IN reserve last April. Since that time
shipments from the mines have been
l,24o,000 week below the REQUIRE
ments, making a total shortage of
between 100000 to $4,000 900 tons,
he declared.
Opposes Export Embargo.
The witness denied that a great
volume of export coal business has
produced a shortage in this country.
An embargo on coal would be a.
rank discrimination against the coal
produced" Mr.. Morrow stated, add
ing that it was not practical to pro-
hiblt overseas movement of coal,
even if determined upon. Much coal
originating on railroads, especially in
the south, could not be utilized ex-
.cept thru export, he said. o.

Many Children Among Victims of
Cars in Six Months.
Chicago. July, 10.-Two hundred
and sixty one men, women and chill
dren of Chicago have met death in
automobile accidents since Dec. i
1919, according to reports totaled by
the coroners office yesterday. The
number exceeds that of any year
prior to 1918. In 1916 there were 420
fatalities.
AS the result of the investigations
of. coroners juries into these deaths,
only ten drivers have been held to
the grand jury on charges Of man
slaughter, one for murder, and six
as accessories. Four unidentified
drivers, who fled after killing persons,
were ordered apprehended on charges
Of manslaughter ard one on charges
of murder.
In three cases the juries recon-
mended that the drivers be restrain
ed from operating an automobile un-
til Of age and in one case chauf
feur's license was ordered revoked
because he had lost an arm and a
leg in previous accident.
The number of children killed was
113. BY the deaths Of adults, fifty
two children and forty-one widows
were left dependent upon charity.
y OF the total number of accidents,
135 were those in which but one ma
chine figured, either running down
pedestrians or crashing into tele-
graph poles, trees, curbings, or other
similar objects or overturning.
The number of deaths leaped from
twenty-one in April and May to
thirty nine in June. Automobile
trucks alone figured in ffty-eight
similar accidents. Twelve deaths were
caused by collisions between automo-
biles and trucks and street cars.
Railroad d-automobile accidents scored
three deaths.
Two persons were asphyxiated by
gas from the engine while working
in their garages.
The majority Of the accidents could
have been avoided by either the
driver or the victim if greater eau
tion had been exercised, according to
Coroner Hoffman.
