 While New Britain coal dealers and the public are wrangling over the prices to be charged for coal Plain vile is sitting pretty" as the saying 1 goes, for the coal situation here. as far as prices Is concerned, is not par amount. Stove coal. which is the hardest to secure. is selling here for $17 ton and pea coal gets $l5 a ton. These prices are the highest so far this year.
 Burton H. Phelps head of the Plainvile Lumber company, is op- timistic in regards to the situation here and feels that the town will be we'll taken care of So far, coal has been arriving at the local yards at the rate of about eight cars a month and if this keeps up, the residents need not worry, he says. This does not mean. however. that coal can be unnecessarily burned. | The Chamber of Commerce, at its recent meeting, appointed Senator John H. Trumbull, John B. Minor and Charles H. Newton committee to investigate the coal situation and if conditions warranted to appeal to Fuel Administrator Russell So far however, there has been no need of this.
 | Coal is delivered to homes in small alotments and. the lumber company here has system of checking up the amounts sold so that none of the homes will be getting more than the other
 The school burns on an average of about three cars of coal a year and so far, have been well taken care of. Mir. Phelps said that. the reason he is able to sell his coal for such a low price is that his purchasing ,connectins have been slightly different from those of the surrounding cities and towns where the people are paying more. Bristol dealers get SIS a ton. The Plainville company delivers much coal to Forestville but does not make practice of going beyond that terri tory
