NEAR EAST MAY
HOLD FLOOR IN,
FRENCH CHAMBER
Crisis May Crowd Out Ratifi-
cation of Washington Anna
ment Conference Treaties.
BY HUDSON HAWLEY -

PARIS, Oct. l3.-The Near East
crisis and number of domestic
issues threaten to crowd out ratifica-
ton of the Washington armament
conference treaties at the forthcoming
session of the French parliament and
may delay consideration Of the naval
scrapping agreement until well into
next year. The new session of the
chamber convenes Wednesday.
The French foreign office, at any
rate. entertains only slight hopes that
Parliament will ratify the Washington
agreements before the coming session
expires about Jan. /.
Has Right of Way
Officials point out that the Near
East crisis, which has developed since
the chamber adjourned, will have the
right of way in the discussion OF for
eign policy. In addition to this ques-
ton which Is likely to monopolze
hours of debate. there is the budget
which must be debated and passed on
before the end of the year. The re-
cent sinking of the battleship France
is also likely to precipitate long debate

OF warcraft should replace the sunken
dreadnaught. Those who believe that
the heavy capital ship is doomed to
be replaced by submarines, light
cruisers and airplane carriers are ex-
pected to occupy much time in the
Senate and the chamber expounding
their views as to the future OF naval
warfare.
France Stands to Lose
In some quarters 1t is expected that
the Normandie, which was left partly
finished in 1915, will be completed to
take the place Of the France. Naval
circles emphasize that so long as the
Washington treaties are not ratified
and the France is not replaced the
French fleet stands to lose its present
superiority over the fleets of neigh
boring powers, particularly in the
Mediterranean. Furthermore. 1t is eX-
planned that the sunken battleship
must be replaced because of France
six remaining capital ships. one is
now in the Near East, four others are
undergoing repairs and the remaining
one will need repairs shortly.

RETAIL GOAL DEALERS ARE
PRACTICALLY WITHOUT SUPPLY

the first week Of the seamen's
strike-slightly under 100000 tons
were transported. This tonnage, it
was said, could be increased, but for
the fact that nearly all available
vessels are being used to large
extent for transporting the grain
crop.
Aside from household coal difficult
ties, the Chamber of Commerce
survey disclosed that there seems to
be no general complaint as to price;
that public utilities, and general in
dustries have about forty-five days
coal supplies on hand; that in many
localities coke is being used for do
mestic fuel; and that much interest is
being shown in the use Of oil as fuel.

BY CLAYTON WHITEHILL

OHtFeU NeVS StuH correspondent
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-Retail
dealers in coal are practically with
out supplies throughout the States
east of the Mississippi and north Of
the Ohio River.
This condition, revealed by the coal
survey of these States, just completed
by the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States, is particularly critical
in the Great Lakes States. and the
populous areas of New York State,
New England and the central Allan
tic States.
The Great Lakes situation, during
the last ten days, has aroused par
tioular interest because of the fear
that the seamen's strike would retard
coal movements to northern States
But the strike has not interfered to
date, according to reports reaching
the Federal fuel distributors office.
The uncertainty of household coal
supplies. as indicated by the reported
Gearth of retail stocks, applies par
ticularly to bituminous coal for house
hold use. The Chamber of Commerce
survey disclosed that while in most
localities coal is being delivered to the
householder as rapidly as received, in
some localities the householder Is not
supplied.
I'm the larger centers Of popula-
ton dependent primarily upon an
thracite for household purposes, the
problem of equalizing the distribution
to householders Of available coal sup
plies is a pressing one. There is need
Of accurate information as to those
who are we'll supplied and those who
have. little or none"
Seamen inexperienced
ANY disastrous effect of the Great
Lakes seamans strike on lake coal
movement, 1t was learned, would now
seem to depend on how the Depart
ment of Justice rules on the con-
tention of President Nolan Of the
seamen, that Great Lakes carriers
are operating with inexperienced
trlke breakers in violation Of the
seamen's law. Law provides that
each vessel must be manned by at
least So per cent able seamen. A
$500 fine is imposed for each clear
ance with less than this quota. In
an emergency, the law provides. this
Ienalty can be waived. Carriers
have already paid fines, and the
question is whether these fines are
TO be RENTED. The department has
not yet ruled on the question because
