Secretary Hoover has therefore
called a meeting of some 1000 opera
tors of the bituminous region whose
mines are now producing coal. The
government will urge that the Gar
field scale of the wartime fuel adj
ministration become effective volun-
taily in order to protect the public
and precent profteering. The public
will be lucky if its escapes an advance
in price,
Attention should also be paid to
the anthracite districts. There is
practically no production at all in
these regions. And yet a shortage of
anthracite coal would hit the house
holder. The present prices of coal are
out of proportion, much higher than
they should be, and yet, unless deci-
sive action is taken, before many
months the present prices will proba-
bly, be increased considerably"

Mr.. Hoover is alive to the fact that
the situation regarding coal is clogg-

the market and profteering. AS the
