IRepublioan A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, June 15.-An eln bargo on coal exports as q means Of relieving serious fuel shortages in va rious sections Of the country, notably in New England was taken up for consideration today by several depart ments Of the government.
 Reports from New England received in the past few days by the intersta te commerce commission have told of q coal shortage so serious that in some municipalities only two days supply is on hand. Governor Coolidge of Massachusetts has made repeated rS- quests for relief. Other sections of the country are said to be facing similar problems.
 The railway congestion. from which the country has not fully recovered, and the strike Of marine workers in Il number of Atlantic ports are held to be the principal contributing factors.
 Eradication of the harmful influence of these two factors was the subject Of d conference today between Attorney General Palmer and members of the interstate c 0 m m CT c c commission Means of dealing with rail congestion and marine labor troubles are under stood to have been agreed upon. d. though no statement was issued alter the conference.
 Restoration of normal conditions D rail and by water however. officials conversant with the situation said would not bring complete relief from the coal shortage and for that reason the question of an embargo, similar Y that in effect during last falls coa strike is considered.
 During the war, the fuel edministra tion was possessed of power to ae- clare an export embargo on coaL bu some legal experts hold that no officia now has power TO declare R emharg' and cite as support Of their conten ton the effort made iii the closing day. of the last session or congress To pas q hil providing for such an embargo
 Members of the interstate commere' commission are said 10 hold that th. commission could not put an emharg' on export coal except indirectly b' means of ear assignment orders. Whic' would eliminate the supply of ears fo the transportation of such coal to tn ports
