very reasonably. and a great demand
springing up" declared J. Maury
Dove. jr., this morning.
THE substitutes rate: Coke.
briauets and screened bituminous coal.
The last named can'be burned in any
except hot air furnaces, we feel. but
there is so much dirt and smoke at
tached to the use of this type of
coal as fuel that many persons find
it Objectionable.
Demand Exceeds supply.
"The demand far exceeds the supply
of egg, stove and nut anthracite coal.
There is some coal of this type in the
District, but by no means sufficient
quantities to meet the demands of the
public. We are not paying what Is
at the mines. 1t is simply point of
policy with us. We find that the pub
lie is "eating up" substitutes. to speak
in the vernacular, and the more that
this is done. the more satisfied we feel
the public will be eventually.
Must Follow Instructions.
"One thing must be remembered. In
structions of dealers should be fol-
lowed to the letter in order to obtain
the maximum efficiency from the sub
stitutes. Dealers are giving such in
structions, but the public will have to
follow them in order to benefit by the
use of substitutes. If Instructions are
followed rigidly in the case of the So
called substitutes, we think that they
may really obtain better and cheaper
service than from the article origi-
nally sought"
Must Permit Increase.
When the price of hard coal is in.
creased at the mine the public utili-
ties commission must permit the local
dealers to make a corresponding in
crease in the retail charge for such
fuel. Engineer Commissioner Keller
stated today.
He added. however, that the COM
mission would endeavor to find out
from the Pennsylvania authorities,
in which state the anthracite fields
exist, Just what increases have oc-
CURED at the mines and the reasons
for such advances.
He intimated that the commission
might consider asking the Depart.
ment Of Justice or the Federal Trade
Commission to inquire into the causes
for higher prices at the mines.
Evidence Must He Submitted.
"If a dealer has to pay 81 more per
ton for his coal at the mine, we will
allow him to charge 81 more here" he
not increase the dealers operating
margin.
The commission has fixed $3.50 as
a maximum fair price for hard coal.
When a dealer pays a mine price for
his coal that necessitates a retail
price in excess Of $3.50 he must sub
NIT evidence to the commission of
what he is paying at the mine. the
colonel said.

Coming jus. before the November
election, the American Legion national

1920, may prove u factor in the pol!ti-

Campaign managers of the two

who will not aggrcssivoly push the

it should succeed it is felt that political
