NEXT SHRINE CIRCUS
FIXED FOR DECEMBER

Arrangements have been made with
Company of Chicago by the Almas
1928 Shrine Committee to have
large indoor Shrine circus here De-
cember 2-I6 The circus will be held
in Convention Hall and will include
from fifteen to twenty high-class
acts.
The Moore circus people have book
ed with Shrine temples many times
during the last five years and have
proved great successes. The money
obtained from 1t will be used by the
finance committee for the fund now
being raised in preparing for the I'm
perial Council session of the Shrine
here next June. Fifty cents Will ad-
nit the purchaser to the circus each
making the cost of each show about
cents.
At the publicity meeting last night
at headquarters in the Homer build
ing it was decided to send the min
ute speakers To patriotic organiza-
tons il being believed that the patri-
otto aspect of the session in June
sanctions this move. Woman speak
ers also will be called upon to address
the woman, patriotic and fraternal Or
cations.
An interesting talk was given by
]. Harry Lewis. editor of the Crescent.

NORMAL COAL PRICES
IN MONTH PREDICTED

Coal prices, now from 80 to 40 per
cent above normal probably would
be somewhere near normal within
month If the car supply for trans
porting fuel was adequate, Secretary
Hoover said today.
The present shortage of railway
freight cars is a serious matter. Mr..
Hoover added, although he felt con-
fident that the railroad managers
were doing all in their power to keep
cars moving as fast as possible. The
motive power of the railroads, MIR.
Hoover said, is below normal as the
result of the recent rail strike.
Mr.. HoOvcr's View.
Mr.. Hoover said the transporta-
ton system of the nation has not
kept pace with the nations produce
tivity. and that besides slowing up
transportation the car shortage has
distorted price levels to great eX-
tent.
Reports to the car service division of
the American Railway Association show
that every effort is being made by rail-
road managers to speed up reshipmcntS
and to aid in getting cars back on their
lines. The association has recently is
sued instructions to roads in the east
and midwest to return ears rs soon as
unloaded to the originating lines, in
order that the car shortage may be al
leviated to the fullest extent possible.
BituminOus Coal LOadings.
Loadings of Luminous coal last Fri
day totaed 29,39S cars, lacking 1,441
of euualing the daily average for Oc-
tober last year. Anthracite loadings on
Friday amounted to 6,411 cars. Il de-
crease of 1S6 ears over the day before.
