fuel shortage grips the nation ac-
cording to a survey by the United
Press today.
When the governments coal cen
sus' now being taken, is completed,
it will show a condition calling for
drastic rationing, whatever the out
come of the mine and rail strikes.
The reports to the United Press
revealed supplies approximately 20
per cent of normal in coal consum-

ments from mines to the principal
distributing points be resumed .im-
mediately it would be impossible to
move coal fast enough to catch up
with the demand.
