FEARS GRAFT
INeOALSUPPLY
Representative Tlson Has
Bill to Take Fuel from
u. S. Control.

Charging the Federal government
with inefaciency In the distribution
of coal which readily lends itself
TO graft and crooked dealing" Rep
resentative George O. Tiison. Of Con-
necticut, has introduced In the
House bill proposing an
amendment to the Lever act exempt
ing the distribution Of this product
from government control The gor-
srnmsnt. he said. should have ended
iss control with the return ef the
railroads to their owners.
Il have believed that government
regulation Of coal distribution has
been q failure" said<Mr. Tilson. -but
! refrained from attempting 70 se-
cure action by Congfess because
thought that when the railroads
were tHxned back government con-
troll Of the distribution OF coal would
be abandoned.
7 do not mean said Tilson, that
the Fuel Administrator or any Of
the principal men under him are In
any way connected with graft or
crookednsss, but after considerable
inquiry In and around New York I
am convinced that the coal reach
ing that port has not been wisely
nor equitabiy distributed. and that
In the distribution shameless graft
has cut a disgraceful figure. II Is
not a dificult matter for q pier
head foreman in a single afternoon
to divert 1000 tons Of coal from q
New England consignee to a nominal
bunker coal account-and $1,350
is fairly good pay for an after
noon's work of a subordinate. even
in New York"
Tilson blamed government regula-
ton for present high prices and
present bad business conditions.
Because Of discrimination In the
distribution Of COAL Tilson said.
factories in Connecticut had been
forced to close down, while those
In Boston and New York had been
literally supplied with fuel.

Woodmen Spare Trees;
Males Only Doomed

Staunton, March 2. Unable to
distinguish between the male and
female of the species. the park au-
thorities and the public grounds
and buildings committee Of the
council have halted the woodman's
axe which was TO be laid at the
roots of the Gypsy Hill Park cedars
as the result of an agreement with
the Augusta County, fruit-growers.
In the case of cedars the popular
idea that the female Of the species
is more deadly than the male is re-
versed. and the opposite is true.
Only the male cedars are deadly to
neighboring apple trees and must
come down. The services Of the
State entomologist at sBlacksburg
will be secured and the classifica-
tion left to him.
