Coal is cash. Buyers are flooding the
mining districts with checkbooks in hand
only one-third of the normal Lake Shipments
to the Northwest have been made to date.
The Company must be in a position to meet
this kind of competition if light and power
service is to be furnished this winter. This
can only be accomplished by legisating rates
IN keeping with existing conditions that the
business in your community will be placed
upon self-supporting basis. 1t takes cash
to buy coal.
We urge that your council take mmed-
late steps to release the funds impounded
under previous litigation instituted in con-
nection with the rate controversy We be-
lieve you realize that conditions prevailing
today are on a materially higher plane of
prices than existed prior to the war, and
that there is no article or service entering
your homes or places of business that have
not increased from 100 per cent to 500 per
cent with the single exception of the cost to
you, of electricity.
Public Utility Companies are confronted
with the most serious problem in their his
tory. During the war PERIOD their coal cost
doubled-to $500 and $500 ton-now it
has doubled again, and still rising 1t must
be admitted that they are justly entitled to
an increase in the selling price of their pro-
duct, in fact it is essential to the public in
terest if good service is to be maintained.
The country is facing the most serious
fuel shortage in its history, and it is ex-
tremely doubtful if our Company will be
able to acquire sufficient coal to provide for
its full requirements this winter unless a
reserve supply can be built up during the
next two months. For the benefit of COM
munities that cooperate in meeting the sit
uation, the Company will first feel obligated
to provide with fuel when there is but linn
tied amount obtainable.
In view of existing conditions which
obviously affect our common interest, we
trust to receive your prompt and earnest
support.
Respectfully yours,

There appears to be no relief in sight,
and the demand for fuel is causing buyers
to bid up prices to unheard of figures Or
binary mine run and screenings from the
Southern Illinois fields are now costing our
Company over $11.00 ton, laid down at the
plants. Unless something is done immed-
lately the Company will not be able to fl
nance a reserve supply for winter.

Without winter surplus, there is bound
to be many interruptions to service In past
years, we have piled up in the local yard,
during the summer months, several hundred
tons of storage coal, to be drawn upon dur
ing the period when the domestic demand
is heavy and freezing weather retards the
normal movements of freight. Our plant
would have been shut down for days at a
time if this policy had not been carried out.
The situation is critical, furthermore, it
affects our ability to furnish service to your
community for an indefinite period. Exist
ing conditions can only be met by prompt
and concerted action accompanied by true
spirit of cooperation and fair play. There
is no time to mince words if the coal is to be
bought-here are the facts:-
Early rate schedules were established
when steam coal cost approximately $3.50
ton unloaded at the plant, now it costs four
times that figure. Wages have more than
doubled in the meantime. The advancing
cost of fuel and labor has caused our opera
ton in your community to be conducted at
loss for many months. The time has now
arrive when we must ask you to aid us in
meeting the situation, that future service
may be provided
