The last week in March Wit
messed the greatest period OF coal
production since the week ending
December llth, 1920. The total
production was Approximately
seventy per cent. OF the full time
capacity, or Isl ,24O tons.
The only railroad operating in
the Southwest Virginia fields
which failed To have mines work
ing along its tracts was the Nor
ton & Northern. The full time
capacity OF operations along this
road is 1900 tons. During the

4 loss Of only 30,4 per cent. The
Southern received 25,7l9 tons
during the week, and the c.. c. x

ably helped to swell the produc-
