Spa. Belgium, July S.-(By The A. F. ) The joint allied and German confer ence on the terms of the peace treaty reached another critical point today. The | Germans have until tomorrow to say whether they will accept the Foch- Wilson plan of disarmament. The alternative Is contained in the specific threat that the allies will occupy the Ruhr or other territory if Germany cannot or does not accept
 The German cabinet, of which seven of the nine members are here, held 8 meeting, which continued from 5.15 O. clock this afternoon until eight. No de- cision was reached and the council ad- tourned until nine tomorrow morning. The prevailing view among the Ger mans was that the allies had carried their demands, particularly the menace of occupying further German territory, much beyond any provision of the Yer sailles treaty, and also that the allies are tzk4~g up an aggressive position not contemplated by any clause Of the treaty.
 The allied disarmament note was com municate to Berlin early in the day at Chancellor Ferhrenbach's request, with the direction that it be submitted to the reichstag and to the leaders of all the parties whether supporters of the gov srnment or the opposition. Herr Fehren- bach asked for the view of the reich Etag and the party leaders, but said that the decision would rest with the cabinet now at Spa.
 Private negotiations are reported to be going on tonight between Premiers Lloyd Eeorre and AEillerand on the one hand and pr. Siuona for the Germans, but this could not be clearly established. Dr. Simons left the cabinet meeting shortly before it ended. It was said he has gone so meet the allied premiers
 The final decision of the allies sets forth:
 First-Germany must immediately dis arm zsertain Of it's forces, including the security police.
 Second-PubIish a proclamation ask ing for the immediate surrender Of all

No Impending
 Coal Shortage
Hanging Director of Ameri- can Wholesale Coal Associi- ation Says Production is Eight Weeks Ahead of Schedule.

Washington, July S.-Assuranca of ar adequate supply of coal to meet all do. nestle requirements during the coming months was given today by George H Cushing, managing director of the Are, lcan Wholesale Coal Association, Whf, sie- clared in a statement that reports of an impending coal shortage were unfounfled lne pubic he said, is panic stricken without reason or excuse.
 mere IS no shortage of coal" MT ousflhg stated, there is no danger of any such shortage Therefore .+oera is a reason but no excuse for the curr.srt b:e,h prices m the open market. The reason IS that we have had too much ..ovorn- mental agitation of the danger. of a fam inc" '' te''ii
 MI. Gushing declared that for the mast elght months there has not been ; Gav or even an hour when some government al agency was not agitating abort ccal ana predicting a coal famine Prices. he salu' nave reached the highest peace tune level in history because those who neea coal Ae frantically bidding aga:rst each other in the open market"
 peciarlng that he had investigated iiedrly every alarmist report. Mir Cush- Ing asserted that mot one of them will stand scrutiny or analysis" He predicted that the consumption of btuminous coal aurlng the "coa1 year" beginning last Aprll ] would not exceed 535, 5,009,00o tons -10,2SS,000 tons a week,
 The present assumption. Mir Cusb- lng continued, lis that unless we reach thls average weekly consumption in the early weeks of the coal year we are rush- ing headlong into a shortage of cosI mat has not been true in 25 years. Ii IS not true this year. The records of the coal trade are that with the execution or 1917 and 191S-war years-we never reached in production figure equal to the required weekly average production until the middle of August This year we reached it in the second week in June Thus our production is eight weeks ahead of schedule That doen't look like an impending famine"
 The statement also declared unfounded
 alarmist" reports that New England New York city and Chicago had in stor age only two days supply of coal. An investigation made by the presidents coa, commission, according to MT. Gushing. showed that the total shorage for New England, exclusive of the railroads. was sufficient for 3S days. and that the state ment as to conditions in New York and Chicago was merely wild guess"

 Telephonic communication was opened with Berlin and the substance of the al lied decision communicated to the foreign office, with instructions to have Minis ters Koch and Raumer call together some nf ba laa public life and consider the allies de- mands, and later inform the German cabinet here on their point of view
 German official coming from the cab inet room said that this council probably would not reach a decision upon the re- ply to the allies but would be followed by another tomorrow morning.
