COMMUNICATED

Milford, July 26, 1922.
Editor Milford Chronicle,
Milford, Delaware.
Dear SIR
For some time past the writer has
been trying to secure his winters
supply of coal, but the local dealers
have had none. This condition of af-
fairs has very naturally caused me
some concern, for with the fall and
winter months drawing nearer very
rapidly, feel that something should
be done to assure a supply of coal in
Milford. So far as have been able
to learn, the local coal men have had
no coal of any great amount since
spring. I am lead to believe that they
could have secured this coal few
weeks ago, even though at the pres
ent time they may not be able to buy
it on the market. While appreciate
the fact that they were possibly try
ing to save the coal buying public
money should there have been drop
in price, I feel that these dealers
should have provided coal for those
who wanted it and were willing to pay
for it. Is there not something that
the local coal dealers can do to facil-
itate the delivery of coal to Milford
homes? We most assuredly need
supply now.
"WORRIED."
