Mcneil Predicts
Shortage And
Rise In Prices

Tt is the opinion of r. c. Mcneil.
president of the Karin Terminal Coal
Co, that the coal strike situation II
prolonged much further, is certain to
cause a serious shortage in the coal
supply this winter and that prices
will naturally rise as the result.
Mr. Mcneil said: "It is difficult to
predict when the coal strike will be
settled Negotiations are under way
daily and it is my sincere hope that
success will crown the arbiters' eff
forts very soon. On the other hand it
may develop into a long, drawn-out
affair and should it continue to the
first of September or whereabouts, the
strike is certain to cause a shortage
in the coal supply that will be very
serious. COAL refer now to the
hard or anthracite coal, the kind for
home consumption and not the soft
or bitumin Gus coal used by factories
has already assembled in price as a
result of depletion of the country's
reserve stocks and coal dealers are
obliged to pay much higher price
than they did a few weeks ago. Even
then the better quality of coal is diff
cult to get. What is true of the pres
ent would be greatly emphasized as
winter draws nearer. therefore it is
a simple matter to anticipate that if
the strike is prolonged into the late
summer, coal prices are bound to
jump in just the same degree as coal
becomes difficult to procure
sfStarting UP the mines on specf-
fed date continued Mr.. Mcneil,
docs not mean that the difficulty is
ended. This is a beginning point in
clarifying the situation, true enough,
but then follows the rush orders from
every corner of the country, the Gus
tomary supplying of the lake country
first where summer shipping is i'm
perative. the shipping Jams every
where, the oYertaxed railway facili-
ties and all of the attendant condi-
lions which always have and always
will place a much demanded and very
necessary commodity on the premium
list. 1 do not mean to unnecessarily
alarm the public, as it has been, is
and always will be the strict policy
of the Karin Terminal Coal Company,
to protect and serve well it's patrons,
but the truth of the situation is that
unless the coal strike is soon settled
there is trouble ahead. As said be-
fore, I sincerely hope for a settlement
early enough to assure plenty of coal
and a lower price than the present
one. Our company will do all in its
power to bring this about

Regard Conn. AS
Efficient In
Motor Problem

Because they regard Connecticut
''as the most advanced state in hand
ling the motor vehicle problem" Of
fcials of Delaware have approached
The Conn. Dept. of Motor Vehicles for
assistance in the preparations of bills
looking to reconstruction of the
motor vehicle laws of that state which
are to be submitted to the next ses-
sion of the Delaware Legislature.
General Benson, secretary of the
state for Delaware, having accepted
an offer from the Delaware Safety
Council to undertake a complete and
thorough study of the motor vehicle
problem, L. A. DeBloiS, vfce-president
of the council has arranged to confer
with the Connecticut department. In
pounded seven specific questions to
The Department bearing on the mo-
tor vehicle problem. which is con-
stantly becoming more complex as
the number of automobiles increases.
Delaware has the second lowest
number of motor vehicle registrations
in the country, Nevada, alone, having
less. The whole number of machines
registered last year in Delaware was
$1,000, as compared to over $4,000
in Connecticut, but the number is in
creasing in each state.
One of the QUESTIONS asked by the
Delaware council relates to the motor
vehicle inspection force. Under a law
adopted by the last session of the
Connecticut Legislature, the inspectors
of the motor vehicle department were
transferred to the state police depart
ment, which has taken over all of the
inspection and enforcement duties
formerly performed by the motor
vehicle department. Patrols covering
an aggregate of 5000 miles of state
highways were recently established by
superintendent Robert T. Hurley of
the state police.

Jap Official
Scouts Idea
OF War

Honolulu, T. H, June 6-Ta1k Of
war between the United States and
Japan is secuted by Keichi Yamasaki,
Consul-General for Japan at Homo
lulu. in his first public statement mad5
since his arrival in Honolulu
Consul General Yamasaki asserts
that neither the United States nor his
own country can afford to go to war
and, furthermore, that the CONNER
cial interests of the two countries, in
stead of being opposed, are inter-
locking and should tend to bind Japan
and America together.
Commenting upon the labor trou
h1es between American employers and
japanese employees in Hawaii, Yama-
saki stated that his observations thus
far lead him to believe that all serious
difficulties are now past and that by
means of mutual cooperation be-
tween capital and labor future free
from labor troubles may be looked
forward to by the sugar plantations
of Hawaii.
Because of his recent sojourn at
Shanghai, where he was consular rep
resentative for the Japanese Govern
ment, Yamasaki was questioned as to
probable developments in China.
These, he said, are, in his opinion,
likely to be most unsatisfactory for
the next few years. The Sun Vat Sen
Government, with headquarters at
Canton, has small hopes of success in
it's attempt to unite China under one
government, and 1t Will In all prOba-
bility be many years before China
recognizes her own weaknesses suffi-
GENTLY to take effective steps to rem
edy them, Yamasalzi believes.
In connection with his discussion
of China, the Japanese Consul-Gen-
era1 took occasion to state that Japan
will never consider intervening in
China to restore order or to attempt
to set up a stable form of govern
ment. The only possibility of Japa-
nese Intervention in China, Yamasaki
states, would be for protection of
Japanese lives or property in the
event of an outbreak similar to The
Boxer uprising.
Statements reported to have been
made by Koreans and Korean sym
pathizers accusing the Japanese Gov
eminent of practicing atrocities in
Korea were refuted in toto by Yama-
saki, who stated that the Koreans had
been and were being given every
opportunity to have a voice in govern
ing their country. Hard feeling be-
tween the two nations has been fos-
tered by a1l-advised Korean both eads,
Yamasakf believes, and the assassina-
ton of several Japanese officials in
Korea as a means of securing revenge
for fancied wrongs has kept hatred
af1ame between the two peoples and
prevented the establishment of a sat
isfactory Korean Government admin
istered by Koreans. Evacuation of
Korea by Japan is not looked for by
Yamasaki.
