MERCHANTS SEEK
COAL FOR DISTRICT
Committee Named to Keep

FREIGHT STILL MOVING
Plans Made to Cope With Possible
Emergency Through Truck
and Boat Lines.
FREIGHT STILL MOVING

Mapping out of plans for a trans
portation system to bring coal and
other products into the city in the
the strike is the duty of a committee
of the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association. announced today by
Brig. Gen. Anton Stephan, president
of the body.
The committee is composed of r. P.
drews Paper Co.. and former presi-
dent of the association; John F. Will
kins, John F. Wilkins & Co., John S.
Dunn, manager of Hugh Reilly Co.:
II. E. Horton OF NJ. E. Horton, Inc.
and Charles ]. Columbus, secretary of
the association.
Each member of the committee has
accepted the appointment, and the
first meeting to lay plans for its
work will be held in the associa-
tions rooms, in The Star building.
Wednesday afternoon at o'clock
The members were selected. 1t WAS
explained, because each one is thor
oughly familiar with the shipping
situation in the District of Colum bia
and, 1t was further pointed out, two
of the members are large distribu-
tors OF food in this city, and. there
fore, handle large volumes of freight.
While the situation here from an
incoming freight standpoint is re-
ported to be good. it was the desire
Of President Stephan and the mem
bers of the association to take a
step toward preparedness, and have
truck and boat lines in hand, should
such an emergency develop that it
would be impossible or difficult to
get goods into the city Much at
tention will be given to the coal sit
uation here.
A supply for the public utilities is
practically assured. but the merchants
are desirous of keeping their own
plants going, and also to provide heat
during the winter months.
Under the instructions given the
committee by the association it is to
survey the situation and map out
plans for keeping open the lines of
communication

HEARING ASSURED
Commissioners to Set Date
as Soon as Draft of Bill
Is Completed.
FAVOR DOLLAR AUTO TAG
Opponents of Plan See Hardship on
Firms Whose Trucks Do Not

DOLLAR AUTO TAG

The Commissioners will hold a
public hearing before sending leSis-
lation to Congress providing for au-
tomobile reciprocity with Maryland
on the basis of a gasoline tax in
D ac. of tue present hors .,owe'
charge. This assurance was given
today by Commissioners Oyster and
Keller.
Col. Keller. who is handling the
mated a date for the hearing prob
ably will be fixed as soon as the pro-
posed bill is in final shape for sub
mission to the District committees
Of the Senate and House.
One of the arguments that have been
advanced in the discussion of a gas
tax is tina. it would prove a hard
ship To comm ,rcial concerns en-
ploying motor trucks that seldom. If
ever, run into Maryland. 1t has been
contended that the owners of these
trucks. using large quantities of
gasoline annually. would be penal
ized in order to obtain reciprocity
for those who go into Maryland.
Keller Belittles Argument.
Engineer Commissioner Keller. who
sees in the gasoline tax chance for
automobile peace with the neighbor-
ing state. does not believe the motor
truck argument is well taken.
He made 1t known today that he be-
lieves there should be some change
in the method Of taxing motor trucks.
because of the damage they inf1ict
upon the surfaces of streets and roads
in the District. The gasoline tax, he
said, is step in the right direction
toward such a revision.
II the gasoline tax is substituted
for the present system of collecting
fiat annual charge according to
car would pay in accordance with the
distance it travels over the highways.
May Convert Motorists.
The Commissioners. it is under
stood, are of the opinion that some
of the motorists who are apprehen-
sive over the adoption, Of the gas ta-
would change their minds If they
were thoroughly familiar with the re-
suits it would bring.
Col. Keller said it is his understand
ing of Maryland's proposal that no tag
will be required from that state in
order to cross the boundary line if
Washington adopts the tax on gaso-
line.
There would be a nominal charge of
possibly 81 for the District tag,
which would be good in Maryland as
it is now in every other state.

FACTA NIRUSTED
TO NAME CABINET
Premier Who Had Resigned
Is Selected by King
Emmanuel. =
By the Associated Press.

ROME. July 31.-Luigi Facta, who,
with his cabinet, resigned on July
49,. today was intrusted by King Vic
tor Emmanuel with the task Of form
ing a new ministry.
Vittorio Orlando, who had been re-
quested by the king TO form cabfs
net. visited the king yesterday and
informed him that he had found 1t
impossible to carry out the task be-
cause of the intransigience of both
the socialists and the fascist. The
socialists informed him that If a new
government were not formed wlthln
the majority group which oVerthrew
the de Facta cabinet the socialists
would bring about general strike
throughout Italy.
Difficulties Ahead.
Political circles expressed the view
today that Signor Facta would not
find it easy to form cabinet, as
Catholics socialists and democrats.
whose votes against him resulted in
the overthrow of his ministry, that
the new administration he purposes
forming was different from the for
mer: that he must show that the
weaknesses of which 1t was accused
no longer exist and that he would
be able to restore order and main
tain it through having sufficient
power to check fascist excesses.
On the other hand, it was pointed
out, he must convince the fascist.
the nationalists and the conservatives
that he is not subservient to the
socialists. Otherwise, it is argued,
the threat made by Deputy Mussoiini.
the fascist leader. at the last ses-
sion of the chamber, when he de-
clared that the fascist would rather
organize revolution than allow
the country to become the play of
the bolshevists, still holds good. The
difficulties mentioned. many parlia-
mentarians thought. would have quite
as great a bearing even IL his object
merely was to form a summer
cabinet" to endure until the chamber
reopens in November.
Urges Ministers to Remain.
Signor Eacti SIS making an effort
to keep in his proposed new cabinet
those ministers whose actions did
not incur the criticisms of the ma
jority which overthrow his recent
administration. He began by asking
Signor Schahzer to remain as foreign
minister, considering that the inter-
national questions in which Italy was
involved, having already been dealt
with by Schanzer, nobody was better
qualified than he to bring them to a
satisfactory solution.
