COAL SHORTAGE
REPORT UNTRUE
OFFICIAL SAYS
Supply Is Adequate to Meet
All Domestic Requirements
During Coming M onths,
Cushing States.

10y MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED WIREl
Washington, July S.--Assurance
of an adequate supply of coal to
meet all domestic requirements
the coming months was
given today by George II. Gushing,
director of the Ameri-
can Wholesale Coal association.
who declared in a statement that
reports of an Impending coal short
age were unfounded. The public,
he said, is panic stricken without
reason or excuse.
"Thern is no shortage of coal"
Mr.. Gushing stated. There is no
danger of any such shortage
Therefore there is a reason, but
no excuse, for the current high
prices in the open market The
reason is that we have had too
much governmental agitation of
the danger of famine"
Mr.. Cushing declared that for
the past eight months there has
not been a day or even an hour
when some governmental agency
was not agitating about coal and
predicting a coal famine" Prices,
he said, have reached the high sst
peace time level in history because
those who need coal are "frarti-
cally bidding against each other in
every market"
Declaring that he had invasti-
gated nearly every alarmist report,
Mr.. Gushing asserted that not
one of them will stand scrutiny
or analysis" He predicted that
the consumption of bituminous
coal during the "coal year" be-
ginning last April first, would not
exceed 535,00O,000 tons-10,2SS,-
600 tons a week.
THE present assumption Mr..
Cushing continued, "is that unless
we reach this average weekly con-
sumption in the early weeks of
the coal year we are cushing
headlong into a shortage of coal.
"That has not been true in rs
years. ii is not true this year,
The records OF the coal trade are
that with the exception Of 1917
and 191S--war years--we never
reached in production figure
equal to the required wee';ly av-
crage production until the middle
of August. This year we reached
1t in the second week OF June.
Thus our production is eight weeks
ahead of schedule. That does not
ook like an impending famine "

seems to be brought to the atten-
ton of hose interested that there
is going to pc fight on Larrazolo
for denomination. On the other
hand, he has a very earnest fol-
lowing who declare that he will
surely win. There is a very active
move to get Larrazolo 10 switch TO
the congressional field, and take
that nomination and then put b. +.
Pankey in the governors chair. 1t
Is thought that he would submit TO
a draft if the party demanded it,
even though he has repeatedly an
nounced that he had seen enough
of the governorship when he acted
in the absence of the governor.
The present result depends entire
ly on the outcome of the confer
ences being held by prominent
leaders who gather in Santa Fe and
one repeatedly hears the remark.
THE differences will be ironed out
before the convention meets" The
state central committee is expected
to hold a meeting here very Soon
and the date of the nominating
convention will then be set. At that
time also there will be an effort to
get things in order for smooth
sailing.

CAPITAL PLANS
To HOLD GRAND
FIESTA IN FALL
Plans Are Already Und err
Way For Observing His
toriCaI Event; Interest in
BlanCett Execution.

Especial Correspondence To The JOurnRi1
Santa Fe, July S.-The De Var
gas fiesta which is to be given N
September is now taking the at
tention of those interested. 1t is
the desire to make this affair one
of the finest ever given in the An
cient City. President Twitchell, of
the Chamber of Commerce is at the
head of the celebration and has in
view some features that will add
greatly to the success. 1t is the in
tent to make this an annual affair
and, the one given last fall gave
promise of all that the promoters
of the celebration could desire. If
the fiesta proves all that those in
terested wish, the coming Septem-
Der, then it is assured that it will
be an event that will draw people
here from as far away as the San
Geronimo fiesta at Taos, and COM
ing at nearly the same time the
tourists can take in both and make
a trip well worth while.
There is a good dealso interest
in the execution of Blancett which
comes July 8 AT sunrise. The con-
demned man keeps the same stolid
Composure which has been his
since he was first accused and
which he held during the hours Of
his trial, even when the skull of
his victim was brought before the
llry. Blancett has never shown the
least shadow of fear and. no word
has come from him indicating a
dread of the final outcome. During
the hours Of Thursday he showed
no change in his attitude toward
the tragic end which he was facing.
His attorney, A. b. Renehan, still
insists that he is not guilty of first
degree murder, but that he is not in
his right mind. However. the uni
versal opinion is to the contrary.

DELEGATE PLAN
GIVEN APPROVAL
BY { D UCA7 ORS.
Reorganization Of the Ma
tionaI Educational ASSoCi-
alton Is Agreed Upon At
Salt Lake Meeting.

10y MORNING JousnAk SPECIAL LEASED wiREl
Salt Lake City, July 8.-Several
hundred Utah teachers this even
ing voted endorsement Of the del
egate plan" of reorganization for
the National Education association
and agreed to work for its adop
ton in the associations business
meeting tomorrow. The scheme is
the chief issue before the present
convention of the body. A clash
between forces favoring and oppos-
ing reorganization was expected,
but failed to develop.
Margaret HALEY, of Chicago,
leader of those who oppose reor-
ganization, attended the meeting
but did not speak. only Utahans
were permitted the floor. Speak
ers not recognized by the chair
man were required to give their
names and residences before ad-
dressing the meeting.
j. Fred Anderson, president of
the Utah Education association,
who presided, announced he had
expelled two stenOgraphers who had
begun taking record of the meet
ing for some persons whom he
did not name.
Hugh S. Magill, field secretary
of the association, declared that
without reorganization it was pos
sible for teachers of the locality
where the annual meeting was
held to control that meeting
Utah, he said, could bulk large in
tomorrows business meeting, or
even control it,
Howard h. briggs, of Chicago,
formerly of the University of
Utah, made a strong appeal to the
Utahans to use this control to
adopt the new plan and make it
impossible for any locality ever
to pack a convention again" Mr.
briggs referred to the meeting last
year, at Milwaukee, Wis, which
he said was controlled through
the votes Of teachers of that To-
Cality.
That the Utahans' vote will
carry the business meeting to-
morrow for the reorganization
plan is disputed almost nowhere.
Young bamboo shoots are eaten

eat asparagus. They have the taste

PICK EMPLOYEES WITH CARE
Modern Business Men No Longer Rely
on the "Hit-or-M Miss" Method OF
Selection.

There was time when picking en-
ployces was hit-and-miss job. trial
and-crror matter which few employers
believed could be corrected. This Is
the day of doing things right and the
modern employer is now selecting his
associates, from the office boy to the
man highest up. with as much care as
he would launch on an entirely new
business venture. William Marvin
Jackson, director Of the Personnel De-
veloDment service, writes:
"If employees are carefully selected.
with an eye to their real adaptability
and fitness for the work to be done, it
goes without question that they are
much more likely to take an interest
in their work, and hence. the business
itself. If they are Interested, they will
get along we'll with their fellows and
cooperate with their supcriors. All OIL

ployee greater than that which accom-

back may make him feel good, and
paying him good salary may make

Princes Speech Consisted Of Verses
From the Koran, but Audience
Didn't Know 1t.

It is interesting to recall that DUR
ing the recent European tour of Prince
Feisal of the new kingdom of Syria.
his memory of the EOranic verses
stood him in good stead. In London,
at a dinner in the GuIdha!l, the prince,
who was the guest of honor. and who
knew little French and less English,
was called upon To reply to the toast
of his health. Beside him sat his
friend and mentor, Colonel Lawrence,
Oxford professor and oriental scholar,
to whom he whispered as he rose to
acknowledge the lord mayors speech.
Colonel Lawrence nodded his assent,
and the prince addressed his audi
cncc in flowing Arabic periods, Win
ming appreciation and applause.
When the guest Of honor had re-
sumrd his seat, Colonel Lawrence. as
his Interpreter. rose to express in Eng
liSh the princes sentiments Of graft
tude for his reception. and to voice
his devotion to the principles of dcmoc-
racy and allied solidarity. 1t was
not until many days had gone by
that Colonel Lawrence allowed it TO be
known among his friends that what
the prince had whispered to him was
"Pll recite the verses from the
Koran about the cow"
Thus did the diplomatic professor
deceive the unwilling ears of his Guild
hall friends.-Munsey's Magazine.
