this winter II coal isn't moved at

"If disaster Ia to be avoided" he
aided. million tons Of coal must
be dumped each week at Lake ports
before the close of lake navigation
about December 1. The only hope
for the Northwest Is for the Inter.

coal into lake ports regardless OF
everything but railroads and public

Last year. according to Conn. H.

783 tons of anthracite were shipped
to Lake Superior ports for distribu-
tion to the Northwest States. Up to
August q Of this year 1,s13.954 tons

Conn. There is no reserve what
