of using more than one-fourth of our
annual coal production, the railroads
would then use less than one-tenth.
Raw coal consumption is primarily
a smoke nuisance, which has been
shown to destroy human life, energy,
and happiness. This subject has been
discussed for a generation without
any great Roadway having been made
to eliminate the evil.
The proper step to abolish the
smoke nuisance is for the public to
use gas for every heating purpose,
and there will then be only two
agents of energy-electricity for
power and gas for heat.
