is instructed. under a resolution in
troduced by Senator Cummins Of
Iowa, to investigate the adyisability

The resolution recited the fact that
the available spply Of oil for fuel
is rapidly diminishing. and the time
naval and merchant vessels. many OF
which now burn oil. may be compelled
to rely upon coal for fuel
The committee will be asked 20 look
into this matter and to ascertain what
coal fields from which vessels may
readily be supplied with coal are

mont. 1t will report to the Senate its
recommendations regarding the fol-
lowing Inquiries:

equipped. for the use Of oil as fuel

What is the transportation cost Of
moving the coal from these fields to
the various ports Of the United

Would 1t be good policy for tho
government to acquire such OF these
coal fields az may be necessary to
furnish the supply that will be needed
for government ships and our mer-
chant marine, and. II so. what would

the legion since its beginning. and have
seen the department grow from one
small post to one with twenty-four
posts. Not only locally, but nation
ally as we'll. they have done much to
build up the organization. and the
question Of choosing now commander,
who will appoint his own adjutant. is
one that will give the convention no
small concern.
A feeling that one man should not
serve too long in such position, COM
bined with new duties in other lines
Of work. is understood to have prompt
ed Col. Jones' action. He has said that
he still expects to be Of service to the
legion in the capacity Of a member OF
