COAL SHORTAGE TO
TIE UP FORD PLANTS
Continued from First Page.

gSleral manager of the Detroit. Toledo
and Ironton Railroad. operated by the
Ford organization.
Mr.. Rockleman declared that refusal
Of the great railroad systems to CO.
operate with the Ford road is blocking
the Ford organization attempts to pro-
cure fuel from even its own mines and
also is keeping hundreds of cars of fuel
from Michigan. He showed telegram
dispatched Saturday to Z. l.. Book. as
sstant general superintendent of the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, at
Huntington, w. Va, which read, in
part. as follows:
Your inability to give us coal is
causing our equipment to be idle and
prevents its use for other business
What can we expect from you and
where can we meet you on this inter-
changer"
Mr.. Rockelfnan said that where the
Chesapeake and Ohio started giving the
Detroit. Toledo and Ironton coal at
the junction point of Gregg. Ohio. the
volume turned over was unexpected
and the Detroit, Toledo and Ironton
was not organized to handle it. A jam
resulted, but it was quickly cleared
away. Since then. Mr.. Rocklemap said,
the Chesapeake and Ohio has not de-
livered coal enough to keep the Detroit.
Toledo and Ironton operating at capac-
ity. From August II on, Mr.. Rookie
man said, the Chesapeake and Ohio
has turned 216S cars at Gregg. This
is an average OF l67 day. The Detroit,
Toledo and Ironton can accept up-
ward of 800 cars a day at Gregg. and
on the system can handle approximately
$500 a day, he continued.
Eighty per cent or this coal is
destined for railroad consumption. Rock
leman asserted, and only small per
centage of it is for Michigan use.
Soncooperatfon Charged.
Mr.. Rotaleman. declared that the
failure of the =. & o. and the Louisville
and Nashville Railroad to cooperate in
the forwarding of coal North was de-
liberate as was the jamming of the
Gregg Junction by tho G. & o.
Right" Mr.. Ford asserted. "as the
orders to do so came from Wall Street"
The southern coal carrying roads are
badly demoralized by. the shopmen's
strike, Rockleman continued. He as
serted that unusually close inspection OF
equipment accepted by the d. T. & l.
Is necessary as a result. A great deal
of repair work is required on the South
ern roads rolling stock, Mr. Rockleman
said. before the cars can be moved
North, causing repeated delays.
Two weeks ago the battery of fourteen
boilers of the Ford Hyde Park plant were
made over so fuel oil could be used.
This proved unsuccessful. but averted a
shutdown before the datea finally agreed
upon. Fords is the first of the many
great automobile plants to announce
their inability TO continue operation on
account of the coal situation, but 1t is
expected that others soon will declare
themselves unable to continue much
longer.
Practically every plant for the last few
months has been working capacity. and
with a sufficient amount OF fuel would
certainly continue large productions
throughout the entire year

NEW COAL COMPANY WILL
 DEVELOP HIGH GRADE FUEL

Organization of the Mt. Mckinley Bituminous Coal Company, backed by local capital. has been announced, the object of the company being to develop a body of high grade bitumi- nous coal close to the Alaska Rail road, at Mile $40. .The company is capitalized at s1O0,OO0 and the fol- lowing well known local men are connected with the enterprise, as officers and directors: Joe O'Connor, president; W. B. Reaburn, vice president; treasurer, Alex Fowler directors, C. N. Christensen, Richard C. Morris and Louis Johnson.
 The property of the company shows several veins of coal, the quality of which is high grade bi- luminous, assaying very high in car bon and low in moisture. It is said to be excellent steaming coal and cokes readily, and will prove very valuable asset to the district in the event of the establishment of q shelter Large deposits of iron ore and lime suitable for fuxing are known to exist near the coal.
 It is the intention of the company to begin development work at once and coal will be placed on the mark ct as soon as the necessary ar engagements can be made. The plans include the construction of siding, the erection of bunkers, the driving of tunnels and the installation of short tram, to convey the coal from the veins to the bunkers near the track.
 The development of coking and steam coal means much to Interior Alaska and the fact that all of the stock of the new company is owned by local capital speaks well for the prosperity of the North. The officers and directors of the company are all well known, solid, reliable busi- ness men, whose business ability, energy and honesty are the very best asset a company could have, in- suring, as it does, the careful and economical handling of the company finances.

NEW BANKING LAW
FOR D. c. PLANNED
MiIIspaugh Offers Bill After
Conferring With Local
Financiers.

A new comprehensive banking law
for the District of Columbia is pro-
posed in a bill introduced today by
Representative Millspaugh of Mis-
souri,, a member of the House Dis
trict committee. who Is himself in
the banking business.
Representative Millspaugh several
months ago put through temporary
bill to prohibit so-called mushroom
banks from operating in the District.
This general banking bill was intro
duced today because the Bankers AS
sociation of the District is to hold its
convention next week and he was
anxious that they should have this
measure before them for discussion.
He says ne will endeavor to have
early hearings before the House
States Laws as Models.
This bill is based on the banking
laws of several states. but adapted
to conditions In the District. 1t was
introduced after conferences. with
qualified approval Of the controller
of the currency.
One important feature IA that 1t re-
quires definite capital No bank can
begin business in the District with
less than $500. 900 capital. while prior
TO the emergency leSlsldtlOu pdsscu
several months ago they could enter
the District with any capital what
ever.
The Millspaugh bill provides for
yisitorial powers OF the controller as
well as examination by the directors
and stockholders. 1t provides for
bank doing both commercial and saw
ing business. but directs a segrega-
tion of accounts IN case a bank en-
ters both kinds of business.
Individual Loans Restricted.
1t restricts the loans to any indi-
vidual. corporation or partnership to
10 per cent of the capital and sur
plus, the same as any national bank.
It provides that banks established
under the act may become members
of the federal reserve system. 1t
provides that shares of stocks in
banks shall have a par value of 800.
while now a number of banks have
stock at SO share. which tends to
place the stock in unstable hands.
The Milspaugh bill provides that
banks already in the District and do
ing business may continue to operate
under their present charters for a
period of three years, after which
they must accept the provisions of
this act. 1t permits branch banks
only on the approval of the controller
Of the currency. 1t prohibits a bank
established under the act from set
ting up an office in any other state
and likewise prohibits any bank or
eanized under any other state char
ter from transacting business in the
District.
