You insure your house against fire,
don't you? Not because you expect fire,
but as protection in case fire loss oc-
ours. The best insurance you can buy
now is fuel insurance-you don't know
what's coming next winter.
The Real Estate interests of New
York City recently had survey made,
with a resulting recommendation that
coal be bought now, and stored to the
limit of facilities.
The Manufacturers Record of Balti-
more says Protect yourself at once for
all family and factory coal needs"
We say: "Buy your coal nOw-take
reasonable quantities throughout the
spring and summer In this way, you
will avoid an excessive demand (like last
falD, and a shortage with high prices
next winter. Then, if unusual condi-
tions arise in the winter, who can mea-
sure the value of the coal already in
your cellar?"

phone No. 22.

Coal Facts--1921
To those who are hoping for lower prices:

We are in the coal business. We be-
lieve we know conditions.
We cannot predict future prices. We
do not think further reductions are like
ly. Present mine wage agreements
don't expire until March 81, 1922.
? There isn't much hope of general re-
duction in freight rates.
If the proposed Pennsylvania State
Tax on anthracite becomes a law this
will mean an additional Is, 20 or even 25
cents after next July 1st.
Coal is far cheaper today than it will
be next winter if you hold off buying!
That is absolutely certain.
You received the same advice in 1919
those who took it suffered no hard
ship of consequence during the big btu
minous coal strike.
We are simply appealing to your COM

GIVES VIEWS
ON AlRCRAFrS
Declares Airplane Has Much
Better Chance for Advance
ment Than Airships.

Saint Blaisen, Baden, Feb. 16.-(By
The Associated. Press. )-Admiral Al
fred Won Trpitz, German naval au-
thor1ty, in an interview today gave his
views on the influence of aircraft up
on future vars. He discounted the
Zeppelin airship as too much subject
to wind and too vulnerable for ordin-
his opinion, has a much greater flu
ture as it has an economic importance
for traffic which will tend to perfect
it for war purposes.
While the airplanc has taken a high
place In land fighting as a substitute
for cavalry, Admiral Won Tirpitz. said
It had not developed its usefulness to
the same degree in sea accommodating,
put thai was probably due to the new
ness of h airplane. which water
planes of the future might conceivably
overcome.
The admiral reserved his opinion on
the possibility of effective attacks by
airplanes upon battleships but clearly
showed that he doubts that airplanes
will become a great menace to the
warships. as, he pointed out, the latter
heavily loaded airplanes will always be
In danger of counter attacks from
lighter machines.
In comparison with ships" he said
afrplanes will always have a funda-
mental disadvantage in their small
loading capacity especially when they
are to be used on a wide expanse OF
ocean. From a study Of the history OF
naval warfare, the greatest exponent
of which was an American, I am per.
suaded that the nature Of naval forces
will not change with a jerk but viii
develop ~organieally. for development
takes some time which only in imag.
ination and fancies can be skipped. II
this respect, the late war has not eff.
fected any fundamental alteration, al.
though, of course, the rate of technical
development is much faster than for.
