appointed to advise as to the lake and
Northwest movement and lie Baron S.
Willard to advise on bunker and tide
water movement.
Effort Is to be made by the coal ad-
ministration to encourage the bunker
ing of all American and other ships at
foreign ports wherever practicable. I'M
ports of coal from England are being
encouraged. Imports can supply at least
and possibly ten per cent. Of normal
American needs.
Without exception the State utility
commissions have signified their readi-
ness for action in carrying out the In
terstate Commerce Commission program
of priority coal movement. AS yet the
State bodies have not been called on
for action. but according to messages
received they are ready to proceed to
see that interstate movements are In
hormany with the national needs.
The three railroads moving the bulk
of the coal from the producing fields in
the southern Allegheny Mountains are
the only ones so far that have found 1t
necessary to lay absolute embargoes on
all freight except that carried in the
l. c. c. priority listing. An early modi-
fication of their embargo orders Is antic-
ipated as soon as they can clear the
jam of coal cars.

These roads were among those worst
hit by the shopmen's strike and 1t was
the disruption of their traffic which gave
color to allegations that the railway
workers were aiming to aid the union
coal miners by stopping production in
the non-union fields. The Norfolk and
Western and Chesapeake and Ohio are
primarily coal carrying railroads. They
tap the richest coal fields in the country
outside of Pennsylvania. Theys move
the production to the seaboard for the

session OF the $2.5oo.o 900 collected In
this country, and now deposited In
American banks, 1t was learned to-
day.
Several prominent Irishmen have
engaged attorneys who are now
looking into the advisability to in
stituting suits to obtain the money
they gave for Irish republic bonds.
II these suits are successful, 1t is
understood, the Washington sub
scribers will give their money to
the republican forces under Ean1on
de Valera. About $4,000 subscribed
by Washington people Is in American
banks at this time, It is said.
"The Washington people sub
scribed for an Irish republic, and not
an Irish Free State" one prominent
Irishman declared today. There 10
no republic in Ireland now"
THE bond clearly indicates that
the money which was to be collected
here would be used for an Irish re-
public government. The idea Of an
Irish republic whose executive auth
ority resides with the King OF Eng.
land is reprehensble to every Wash
ington subscribed.
when Michael Collins was faced
with the alternative of signing the
treaty or having England remove the
scourage OF the Black and Tan, he
was cabled that Americans were will

to defend Ireland. He refused this
offer. 1t was apparently his inten-
ton several days ago. when he in

Control Of the 81, SOC, 900 Is vested
in de Valera. Bishop Fogarty, and
Stephen O'Mara. Neither Of the
three will consent to the removal Of
