COMMISSION LIFTS
BAN AGAINST COAL
Public Utilities Must Supply Public
Wholly in Order to Get Priority
Other Changes Made

Washington, Sept. 18.-Priority in
shipment of coal by water to New
England, put into effect several
weeks ago to relieve the New Eng
land coal shortage, was suspended to-
day by the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
The order gave preference to coal
shipments amounting approximately
1,25O,0O0 tons Of coal monthly to
New England through tidewater ports
"The action of the commission" ,"
the commission announced, "is based
upon thorough review of the coal
situation and was taken with the ac-
uuiescence of the New England Coal
Commission and because the coal sit
uation in England had improved suf-
ficiently Sc that the present continu-
ance of this emergency order is re-
garded as unnecessary. Whether the
order giving preference will later be
revived will depend upon the future
course of coal production and move
ment."
Must Supply Public Wholly
Priority of movement of coal to
public utilities, public institutions and
ice plants, order about three months
ago, was modified today by the Inter
state Commerce Commission to pro
vide that priority shall apply to pub
lie utilities and ice plants only wher
such concerns supply the public
wholly.
The commissioner denied the re

the commission declared that such al
exemption would release many car
fer the movement of steel, which i
was said, was an urgent need.
The request of the packing indus
try for preference in the matter, o.
coal supply also was denied.

of the main trunk lines, the Atlantic
Coast Line and the Seaboard Air
Line, have earned less money for the
first part of this year than the same
part of 1919, while the Southern Rail-
way has made more money than 1t
did for the same part of last year.
These three trunk lines yesterday
filed with the railroad commission

of the year. The report of the At
lantic Coast Line shows that it has
earned for the first six months the
net amount of $715,453. For the first

Teor the Seaboard Air Line operated
al net loss of $175,112, as compar-
ed with profit of s2oe,asO, for the
first six months of 1919. The South
ern Railway has earned S2,23o,551,

pared with net earnings of only 1884,

shows, have jumped up remarkably
