URGED NOT TO INSIST
ON CHOICE Of COAL
Buyers Reminded Winter Is Ap.
preaching and Supply of Fuel
Is Uncertain.

With cold weather rapidly ap-
preaching, Robert L. Lewis, secre-
tary of the Coal Merchants board of
trade, again urged householders to-
day not to insist upon one particular
variety of fuel.
1.-THE local dealers" said Mr.. Lewis,
"are fairly we'll stocked up with large
broken furnace anthracite. but
householders are showing a DISPOSE
tion not to take it.
What we are trying to do is con-
vince householders who ordinarily
use stove coal to take at least a
small quantity of the larger sizes"
Aim Of the Dealers.
All of the dealers are endeavoring
to get one-month supply of fuel
into the cellars of all their Gus
toners before the mercury drops.
Walter c. Allen, secretary to the
Public Utilities Commission, pointed
out today that distribution Of fuel
to consumers after it reaches the
dealers yard is slowed up somewhat
by the rule which requires dealers to
give each customer only one
month supply.
Time Consumption Noted.
1t takes much longer, Mr.. Allen
said, to deliver five tons of coal to
five different addresses than to dump
a five-ton load at one door.
The commissions aim in making the
rule, however. was to get a general
of coal as it arrives.

For Stage Cast
OF Country Cop

A we'll dressed man. probably
nifty years old. dropped into the
public Office of the assistant cor
poration counsel in the Police
Court building yesterday.
He was attired in an English
walking coat Of checkered cloth,
bound with black braid; a late
model broad -brimmed black Stet-
son a monocle. from which q
broad silk black string dropped;
spats an everythin', and he car
ried q light cane.
Approaching the desk occupied
by Otto Hauschild.sth chief clerk,
he remarked In a broad English
accent: II beg pardon. Is this the
office of the chief Of police?" He
was informed that 1t was not, and
was told 1t was where the police
brought their cases.
The visitor explained that he
was an actor-he looked the part
and had been cast to play the
character of a country policeman
and he was seeking information as
to just what was proper In the
way of uniform.
Mr.. Hauschild described the po-
lice uniform worn here. but sug-
gested that an illhtting hat of an
cient vintage, baggy blue trousers.
heavy shoes, an oversize coat,
big club and massive silver star
would be the proper makeup OF
country policeman.
The stranger expressed his
thanks and left the building,

RELEASE OF SCHOONER
CLEARS DRY PROBLEM
Government Now to Await Appeal
Of Ship Owners on
Jurisdiction.

Release by the United States of the
Canadian schooner Emerald in New
York yesterday. and return of her
1000 cases of liquor. seized outside
the three-mile limit by prohibition
agents. was believed today by ofiicials
here to have cleared up the last press
ing problem for the present in con-
nection with liquor on ships. which
has been agitating several branches
With Attorney General Daugherty's
ban on ship liquor interpreted by
federal courts as effective on Ameri-
can ships everywhere. and with a
temporary suspension as to its opera
ton against foreign ships placed in
through customs and prohibition
agents, the government will now rest
on its oars for the time being and
await the appeal Of protesting ship
owners to the Supreme Court, which,
according to present prospects. may
heard at the November sitting of the
court.
U. 9. Ships TO BE Bone Dry.
Pending the decision OF the Supreme
Court American ships will under the
law be bone dry everywhere. while
foreign vessels may bring liquor
within territorial waters of the United
States under seal only.
The Emerald. which was seized
several days ago about eight miles
of the New Jersey coast by prohi-
that she was communicating with
the shore in transportation of part
Of her heavy stock of liquor aboard.
was released on order OF Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury Clifford.
The order was sent to Acting Col
York by the following telegram:
Upon recommendation Secretary
Of State you are directed to release

outside territorial waters United
States. Confer with United States
Advise department Immediately when

Dispatches from New York indi-
Gated later the ship had been re-
leased and her liquor restored.
Government Failure.
Failure Of the government to prove
that the Emerald had established
illegal connection with the shore was
oficially stated as the reason for
release Of the vessel. whose seizure
had been the cause of protest by the
British government.
At the State. Department. which
authorized release Of the Emerald, 1t
was indicated the seizure was re-
garded as in violation Of the policy
laid down recently by President
Harding and under which the prohi-
bition navy was ordered to confine
its operations to American territorial
waters, except in the cases of ves-
sells found to be in communication
with the shore by means Of their own
boats or crews.

OF WARTIME
DRAFTS ARE OUTLINED.
Army Officers Take Notes Made in
Recent Conferences Here as
Basis for Future.

Examination by Army officers of
notes taken during the recent con-
ferences here with a selected group
should govern any future military
draft regulations has brought out
several distinct features which the
conferees were agreed should apply
to the classification of enlisted per-
sonnel.
Judgment Of Civilians.
For one thing it was the judgment
of the civilian conferees, all of whom
had wartime draft experience, that
work necessary in the Army should
be classified by occupations in order
that the classification of men called
to the colors could be expedited and
their assignments be based on the
similarity of their civil training and
military work they were best fitted
to perform. 1t was also believed that
the classification of men should be-
gin when they were called by local
draft boards and not await their ar
rival at mobilization centers.
Another point brought out was the
difficulty of dealing in the Army with
men of low mental caliber. A sugges-
tion was made the regulations should
prevent such men from being called
for active military service.
In Harmony ~ to Service.
The conferees were in harmony also as
to the desirability Of using men avail
able only for limited military service
from the beginning Of the operation
Of the draft law and not deferring
such cases for later treatment.
To meet the problem of dealing
with limited service men and occupa-
tional specialists the suggestion was
made that clearing pool centers for
each of these groups might be estab-
lished and that the excess from the
various local boards could be turned
over to these pools for further assign
ment. The plan would work especial
ly we'll in distribution Of specially
qualified occupational specialists 1t
