Primary Call Is Ordered

Tho New York County Republican
Committee 40 lis monthly meeting last

Of Collin H. Woodward and Charles
Hcydt TO change the numerical repre-

crcasc tho number Of members, baslhs

on. hundred votes cast FOR Governor
,hovo one hundred. Mr.. Woodward
wanted the membership increased SO
ms 10 have one county committeeman
FOR each twenty-five votes cast Tor
Governor over one hundred, IN addi-
zion 10 the two allotted each election
district irrespective Of the vote. Inc
present ratio is ono member for each
iftv cubcrnatorial votes above one
hundred and .xo additional 20 each

The argument advanced by Mr.

his supporters pointed out that Tam

That OF the Republican County Com

The committee adopted a resolution
directing tho county chairman, Samuel

Anthracite coal operators, Mr. Hoover
stated. have agreed not 20 advance

above the levels Of the past week, which
he added. were lower than al the be-
ginning OF the strike.
Bituminous operators in fields
where q price basis has not yet oeen

earnestly requested" 70 reduce selling
expenses for spot coal 90 the Garfield
price including the standard selling
expense plus such additions for in
creased costs as were justified In each
individual case.
Points Out Difficulties
"The complcxity Of local conditions,
ne said. "due 10 the strike and the en-
trance % many snow bird mines.
makes the establishment OF maximum
prices very difficult in many districts.
This plan IL adhered 10 should result

Sporadic complaints Of selling eN-
pense being added 20 net prices ~

q ed. would be taken up in eAch
i-di, dual case.
Persistent misstatemcnt or misun-
derstanding OF elements inside and ont-
.ide thc coal industry. Mr. Hoover as-
serted. have given rise 10 the .m-
urcssion that the maXimums o. sou
p ton for spot coal, established WIN
operators o. 30 per cent Of the pro
lrcirr fields. constituted minimum

AN occasional sale az the maximum.
More than half Of the tonnage. he
