Near East Relief Campaign Or.
ganized Here Today.
Campaign Won't End Till Quota

MANY COAL ORDER
Topekans Were Caught With
Little Fuel in Bins.
Purchases. Today Were in Very
Limited Quantities.

Hundreds of .'short orders of coal
were delivered in Topeka this morn
ing. to people who had "kidded"
themselves into the belief that they
could get by without buying more.
"It was the usual story-someone
sick, cold. no fire. wouldn't we please
hurry right out with a small order"
Mrs. Cara Majors Croft. manager for
the Jackson-Walker company, said
this morning.
Put 1t Off Till Last Minute.
'"rhey seem to put off ordering coal
until the last minute" Mrs. Croft said,
'tand when they want it, they want it
right now. It seems a coincidence
that these sudden cold spells and fur
rleS of snow come more often on Sat-
urday than on any other day, and Sat
urday is the day when a great many
householders suddenly discover that
they haven't enough fuel to tide them
over till Monday, anyhow"
The coal which was purchased in
Topeka today was for the most part
of the cheapest grade, and in small
quantities. There were two factors
just emergency fuel, and the people
who bought it wanted to get a little
coal just for the present, and the
other the shortage of cash which is
compelling many people to buy
cheaper grades of coal, food and other
things.
Plenty of Coal Here.
There is plenty of coal in Topeka to
meet the limited demands of this
''cold SPELL, and no one will go cold
for lack of fuel in Topeka.
There were few calls for fuel at the
Provident associations office today,
but there was a sudden peak in the
number of requests for clothing, par
ticularly for boys and girls in school,
and more especially for shoes. Young
sters whose footgear has been coaxed
along in the anticipation that bare
foot time" would soon be here. found
things much complicated by the snow
which lay on the ground this morning.
Provident Association Needs Clothing.
The Provident association is woeful-
ly short of boys clothing. They can
supply. after a fashion, the needs of
the girls, but their stock of boys
clothing has been almost exhausted.
If sickness and suffering is to be
avoided among the youngsters. and es-
pecially the boys. who are not fortu-
nate enough to be properly clothed
during the present cold snap. the
Provident association can use clothing
to very good advantage Immediately.

Nashville, Ark, April 16.-How he

cars loaded with cotton from his COM
bination freight and passenger train

several times. Windows were torn
from the passenger coaches and
crashed over passengers.

'AIl about US was wreckage, flying
