Gus coal has been nearly 100000
tons short Of normal When the

railroads will not have enough cars
to move coal, IT is predicted.
Railroads Are Handicapped.
From then on Ii will be a ques-
ton Of transportation" said John B.
Pratt of the National Coal ascot
alton Thursday. There has been
a shortage of cars for the last
years. There is no possibility of the
railroads getting enough cars 10 sup
ply the demand for winter coal.
In the middle west and the north
west it will be impossible to relieve
the suffering that would result, for
the householder will be affected a.
we'll as industries and public utill-
ties.
There will not be enough coaI
moved to keep street car and electric
light plants going, not TO mention in
dustries that may be operating.
Revival Now Endangered.
Prices always rise when there Is
a shortage In any commodity"
According to Pratt. the slump in
soft coal, as shown by the present
average weekly output of 100000
tons against the normal average OF
100000 tons means about half the
industries Of the country are para
lyzed. A sudden revival Of industry
would make the situation acute, even
with enough cars TO move coal. be-
cause of the shortage in production.
