"Only two countries of the world,
the United States and the United
Kingdom, today have reasonable as
surance of sufficient coal to operate
their industries at capacity during
the coming winter" Mr.. Broderick
says. "In order to attain this Sc
curity definite limit has been placed
upon the amount of British coal avail
able for export, and in the United
States exports have been automatical-
ly held in check by measures to as
sure domestic supplies. The fuel
problem is the foremost question fac
ing the industry of every country of
Western Europe, except the United
Kingdom. 1t is also to the fore in
a number of countries outside Eu-
rope, chiefly those countries of
South America which have hereto
fore been dependent upon imported
coal.
"The international coal trade is
entirely dominated by the United
Kingdom, Germany and the United
States. Not only is the coal supply
of importing countries now \depen-
dent upon the mines of these three
countries, but there is no prospect
for years to come of important ad-
ditions from other sources to the
amount of coal available for the ex-
port market. The recent emphasis
placed upon small shipments from
new and remote coal fields has been
entirely out of proportion to their
relation to the issue. A similar over

WORLDWIDE COAL
SHORTAGE A MENACE
To ALL INDUSTRIES

AS result Of the coal shortage
which menaces the world, only the
United States and Great Britain are
assured of sufficient fuel to operate
their industries at capacity during
the coming winter. according to Jo-
seph A. Broderick, vice-president of
the National Bank of Commerce in
New York. In an article on the In
ternational Coal Trade in the Octo-
Der issue of Commerce Monthly, the
banks magazine, he points out that
although eventually a balance will
be reached between demand and pro-
duction, this cannot be hoped for in
the near future. Neither shipments
from new and remote fields nor the
increased use of fuel oil and other
Ssubstitutes will solve the problem
for the present
The article indicates that at the
present rate of monthly receipts, not
a single importing country in Europe
or South America is receiving a sup
ply which is even approximately ade-
quate. France is now receiving coal
at about two-thirds the rate which
would be necessary to assure opera
tion of French industries at capa-
city; Italian receipts are about three
fifths Of the estimated necessary
amount; Netherlands is receiving only
one-third the amount of coal required
by it's industries, and Norway is re-
ceiving approximately one-half. The
situation is no better in the case of

TWENTY Miles
OF HUNGRY CHILDREN
FED BY EAST RELIEF

The work of raising funds for the
starving peoples of the Near East
through the state office of that organ
ization in Phoenix, is going ahead
nicely. There will be no campaign
or drive this year as in former ones,
the plan being to secure the under
writing of the support of orphans.
Last year America saved Armenia
from starvation. The president, the
governors and all those in authority
in Armenia grant this and unite in
their expressions of deep apprecia-
tion
The volume of the work is tremen-
dous. It would take a table "a miles
long to seat all of the orphans now
being fed by the Near East relief.
The table is set in sections all over
the hills of Asia Minor, Syria, AS
syria and Northern Persia, on both
sides of which are seated orphans
Syrians and Assyrians, Greek and
Armenians, Jew and Christian, all
rescued from the fear of the Turk
and under the care of American men
and women.
They are thrifty lot, these little
parentless exiles. From their scant
store of bread they always carry a
portion in' small bag about their
necks-they fear the day of another
killing. They horde the shoes sent
from America until snow flies-they
remember their bare feet in the
SHOWS of last year.
Every day other waits find their
way to the orphanages of the Near
East relief and soon the entrances
will be crowded with children frozen
out from their temporary summer
quarters. Then it is that the table
of the Near East must be extended,
and America is asked to Set the
table.
Last year Arizona raised it's quota
being the first state in the union to
do so. The same was true during the
war-Arizona was always among the
first to respond to an appeal for help,
and it is felt that in these happier
days for us, Arizona will continue to
do her share to alleviate the suffer-
ings of these less fortunate people
across the sea to whom a true armis-
tice has not yet come.

CHARLES PIEZ

Charles Piez, president of the Link
Belt Co., who directed the Emergency
Fleet corporation, is a close student
of practical, immediate economic prob
lens, and he is always in hurry to
"get down to brass tacks."
Confidence and loyalty" he says,
"are the primary essentials of success
in industry, as in sports. Teamwork
is the secret. What has become of it,
and why? Profteering, wild, mali
cious rumors and inflammatory agita-
tion have destroyed much of it, but
there are still examples of mutual
confidence and loyalty on the part of
employers and employees. Such ex-
amples must become general before
we can drive ahead full speed on the
highway of achievement again"
Piez heads the Electric Steel Co.
and serves some Chicago banks as
director. He is a glutton for work
and responsibility, which keep him
strong and fit for exceptional emerg-
encies, his comparative youth (54)
being also an asset When asked for
the secret of his success, he replied:
II always took advantage of every
opportunity to study the business"

the sort of administrator of which
the country wants to be rid.
The task before us is not an easy
one. The prodigalities of adrhinis-s
tration of the last few years cannot
be Topped off without determined and
persistent effort. Positions once Gre

theless there must and will, with the
Republican party re-establish in
authority be systematic and effec-

by the government and by the profit

patient shoulders of the American
public just as fast as possible.

TO
FAIR Will BE
Accommodated

PHOENIX, Nov. 6-"All visitors to
the state fair, November 8 to 13, in
elusive, will be adequately cared for
in Phoenix, the chamber of COM
merce Of this city announces. Already
steps have been taken to determine
the housing facilities of the city, and
to list all available space for the bene-
fit of out-of-town visitors. Advertise
ments have Geen run in the newspa-
pers requesting private families to
list their spare rooms for the occa-
sion.
Hotel keepers and restaurant own
ers have pledged themselves not to
increase their rates during fair week,
and to see that there will be no prof
iteering.
Railroads will grant special reduced
rates from all points of the state, max
ing possible a record attendance for
the 1920 fair.
Entertainment features this year
provide rare combination of fun
producing events. One of the most
notable features will be the Wortham
Shows which will furnish the night
attractions of fair week. They include
sixteen separate shows, some of them
entirely new and some of the whole
some, age-old fun-producers without
which no carnival would be complete
The Wortham Shows will occupy a
downtown site this year, being locat-
ed on the huge vacant square oppo-
site the postoffice building on First
avenue and Monroe street.
An unusually large and brilliant col
lection of entries for both the har-
ness and running races has been made
and insures "a. thrilling program for
The horse-racing track. Races will be
staged every afternoon, as will the
cowboy sport events, which include
bronco busting, cow-pony races, calf
other stunts, that go to make up a.
real wild west show.
With the recent entrance of Tommy
Milton and Eddie Hearn into the au-
tomobile races, plenty of thrills are
assured for that department. Both
are stellar figures in the racing world
and will help make Auto Day, Satur-
day, the last day of the fair, the crown
ing event of the week. Many notable
entries have been made other than
these two, and a splendid program,
of races arranged
No possibilities have been over
looked to make the sixteenth annual
state fair the biggest and best ever.

emphasis has also been placed on
the proposed \use of substitutes. Re-
gardless Of. what the more remote
future may hold, the present fuel
problem will not be solved by the
substitution Of fuel oil for coal. The
production of electricity from water
power necessitates elaborate installa-
tions at a time when capital is cost
ly and difficult to secure, and extern
sive water-power projects require
years for completion. Wood and peat
are but poor substitutes for coal, and
for many uses Ignite likewise is
highly unsatisfactory. Modern indus
try has been built on coal, and it is
dependent on adequate supplies for
it's maintenance.
"The total shortage of coal in the
international market is only a small
part of the difference between actual
production and probable output had
the war not occurred, but when
measured in terms of the effect on
the countries which are suffering
this shortage it is acute, and the
only hope of meeting it lies in the
productive. capacity of the United
Kingdom, the United States and Ger
many
mo comment can add emphasis to
the facts. British exports for the
year cannot exceed 25,000000 tons
with an additional 13,500,OOO tons
for bunkerage of vessels in foreign
trade. Exports from the United
States much in excess of exports for
previous years, that is, gross exports
Of 25,000,00O tons, and 100000 tons
for bunkerage might result in a cor
responding shortage for American
consumers. Required German coal
deliveries are probably in excess of
the surplus which Germany would
have available for export if German
industry were to operate without a
handicap.
"The degree to which industry and
the routine of ordinary daily life
are disorganized in these countries is
determined in part by the serious
ness of their coal shortage and in
part by the extent to which they are
industrialiZed. The north European
countries are the worst sufferers. "Ul-
timately a balance will be attained
between consumption and production,
but it does not appear that this can
be hoped for in the immediate future.
The international coal shortage is
one of the most serious results of
the wastefulness of war"

DAY
PROCLAMATION
OF GOVERNOR
Executive Department,

state OF Arizona.
The 11th of November is day of
solemn significance. Two years ago
the trumpet of the Lord, which shall
never call retreat" sounded the glad
tldings to wartorn and war-weary
world that the hour of triumph had
struck for the Allied cause, that fear
of German domination had been ban
ished forever, and that liberty, free
peoples and free institutions, shall not
perish from the earth. Silence, awe
inspired, was followed by demonstra-
tions of joy and paens of praise,
mingled with prayers of thanksgiving
from the mothers and fathers who
had given their sons as a sacrificial
offering that mankind might be free.
And with the battle flags furled and
the cannon muzzled, came the hope
that there had been ushered in the
era foretold by the prophet: "And
they shall beat their swords into plow-
shares and their spears into pruning
hooks; nation shall not lift up sword
against nation, neither shall they
learn war any more"
The price of victory was paid in
blood. The fields of France are
crimson-stained and beneath the sod
crushed and MANNED, lie the flower of
our young manhood. They gave their
all and to them a grateful nation will
pay its reverent homage.
To those who have returned to home
and kindred, we also owe a tribute,
and it is my earnest and sincere hope
that the time is not far distant when
the observance of Armistice Day will
he not only national, but international
in scope. Recognition of the valor of
our defenders is just and deserved,
but our duty does not end there.
These men are deserving and should
receive more substantial evidence of
our gratitude. Words of praise, not
backed by deeds, are hollow and
Their appeal for land
in order to build homes, aid in the
development of the state and assist
in it's moral and material advance
ment, should be needed by the next
to which body their claims
will be presented by the American
Legion, an organization with the OBJ
jects and purposes of which l am in
hearty accord.
It is fitting that due honor be paid
to the survivors of the greatest war in
the history of mankind, and that the
people of Arizona publicly acknowl-
edge, through formal observance, their
gratitude to those who so heroically
represented this state. !
Now, therefore, I, Thomas e. Camp
BELL. governor of the state of Arizona,
by virtue of the authority vested in me
by law, do hereby designate Thursday,
November 18th, 1920, as "Armistice
Day." and urgently request that it be
observed as a public holiday. I fur
ther suggest and urge that our peo-
pie participate in the exercises to be
held by the American Legion, com
of the momentous event,
thus demonstrating that we are not
of an obligation that as
state or nation cannot ever be can
celled.
In witness whereof, have hereunto
set my hand and caused the Great
Seal of the State of Arizona to be
affixed.
Done at Phoenix, the capital, this
28th day of October, A. D. 1920.

The State Health Department
is conducting a vigorous cam
paign for better health among it's
colored citizens. To better pros

been installed as a part of the
system. The car is equipped
with moving picture machine and
slides to show vividly the prin-
ciples Of sanitation and hygiene.
Sadie Harris, the colored Rural
Supervisor of Schools for Rich
mond county, informs the Post
Dispatch that this car will spend
a week in this county, beginning
March 29th, and OF course the
pictures and health illustrations
are free. It is to be hoped the
colored people will take full ad-
vantage of this chance to become
better acquainted with health
sanitation.

Oct. 27, 2S, 29, 30 Dates for Rich
mond County Fair.

The Richmond County Fair
will be held next fall a week
earlier than last year. The
dates for the next Fair are Oct.
27, 28, 20 and 30-which is just
a week after the State Fair is
held at Raleigh. This will en-
able the management to obtain
a much better Midway.
The officers of the Fair are
Henry c. Wall, president, and
A. G. Corpening, secretary and
treasurer. Negotiations are on
with the Zeideman and Polite Ex-
position Shows, of Louisville,
and it is probable that this big
concern will supply the Midway
attractions.
The officers are seriously at
work now planning for this next
Fair, and it is earnestly hoped
that the people of the county
will plan their exhibits NOW and
all pull together in making this
the best Fair yet.

City Delivery for Rockingham


Congressman l.. D. Robinson
has secured city delivery postal
service for Hamlet and Sanford,
and the actual service will be in
operation before summer.
Of interest to our Rocking
ham people is the fact that the
postal receipts of the Rocking
ham office are now more than
sufficient to have such a deliv-
cry service installed here. And
upon request of Mr.. Robinson,
the Postoffice Inspector has been
ordered to make investigation
with a view of establishing this
service.
The postal receipts of Wades-
boro and Laurinburg are also
large enough for delivery for
those towns, and similar action
will be taken.
Here's hoping our city will
have this service, and that right
early.
