C0NTR0LOF COAL
AND R. R. STARTS
Interstate Commerce Com
mission Puts Into Effect
Routing and Priority
REAL ACTION IS TAKEN
Mandate Effective to Expe-
dite Movement of Coal and
to Avoid Congestion

WASHINGTON, July 26-While
the administration continued to
await results Of the attempt to op-
crate strike effected mines at the
same time confining its policy in
the rail strike to support of the
railroad labor board as the only au-
thorized agency to deal with it, the
Interstate Commerce Commission
put into effect today transportati ton
routing and priority orders as the
basis of the program for control of
the country's coal supply and trans
portation facilities.
The priority order established a
preferential system for shipment of
fuel and food over all railroads east
of the Mississippi. Another mandate
effective today directs all the roads
of the country to disregard estab-
lished routing in favor of such rout-
ing as would expedite movements
and avoid congestion.
The distribution agency which has
been built up under the direction of
Secretary Hoover is ready to func-
ton within twenty-four hours, he an
nounced, and all is in readiness to
begip the routing of coal immediate
ly with the support of the orders
from the Interstate Commerce Com
mission.
Under the emergency order issued
by the Interstate Commerce Commas
sion ali railroads are directed that
in the supply of cars to mines car
riers are authorized and directed to
place, furnish and assign such coal
mines with cars in succession as may
be required for the following classes
pf n tho fnl1cUinc
der of classes:
"Class 1-For such special purpos-
es as may from time to time be speci-
ally designed by the commission or
it's agents"
The indefniteness of preference
provided in Glass 1 gives the Presi-
dents commission absolute control
of the movement of loaded and
empty cars.
Glass includs fuel for railroads
and other common carriers and for
ships; public utilities which directly
serve the general public, under
franchise therefor, with street and
tnterurban railways, electric power
and light, gas, water and sewer
works; ice plants which directly
serve the public generally with ice,
or supply refrigeration for human
foodstuffs; hospitals, the United
States, state, county, or municipal
governments and for their hospitals,
schools and other public institutions
The provision is made, however.
that this supply is ito the end that
such common carriers, public utili-
ties, quasi public utilities and gov
ernments may be kept supplied with
coal for current use for such pur-
poses, but not for storage, exchange
or SALE
Glass 3 makes provision for sup
plying bituminous coal to the Great
Lakes region from mines in Penn
sylvania. Ohio. West Virginia, Ken
lucky, Tennessee and Alabama.
Glass A deals with commercial sizes
of coal for domestic use.

MEASURE TO PREVENT
POLLUTION BY OIL

and the harbors. and the increased
fire hazard along the shores due to
accumulations of oil which are
washed ashore.
Some foreign governments have
tackled the problem vigorously. For
example, Holland has a sort of in
terror port, in which ships burning
fuel oil may dump their refuse and
their bilges, after which the oil and
water mixture is run through a
separating process and the oil re-
covered.
An American is said to have in
vented a process by which this can
be done on shipboard, and the re-
covered oil pumped back into fuel
tanks, and it is considered probable
that this latter process. when per-
fected, will solve the problem so far
as oil burning vessels are concerned.
The greatest single source of pol
luton on this side of the Atlantic
however, is said to be from tank
steamers which return from abroad
in water ballast. Just before enter
ing our ports their practice is to
pump out the water, which takes
with it considerable quantities of oil
and refuse sediment.

The aldermen plan to pass the
necessary legislation at their next
regular meeting. vacating that part
of Amboy avenue lying tetween a
point 100 feet north of Inslee
street and the city line. This will
then be taken over by the Barber
Asphalt Company who in turn will
deed over to the city the property
now owned by this company
through which the new route will be
laid out. There are few details
which must be worked out in con-
nection with the transfer, but thu
main project is assured and the
prospect l., now bright for speed
action by the state. county and city
in putting through the new road.
The new route will make shorts
road to Woodbridge, will do avn
with the sharp turns of the presen
road and the grade will not be ST
steep. There will be gradual clint.
from the Woodbridge Perth Amnc.
line to the top of the incline at Myr-
tie street instead of the present ieve.
stretch and then a considerable
grade from the Maurer road bridge
to the top of the hill.
AS a result of securing the strip
- idho c'Ni WiASIl tiit piSSCAL' IOdI
passes. the Barber Asphalt Company
will be enabled to make further ex-
tensions to their plant which at pres
ent are impossible owing to the lack
of sufficient space between the rail-
road tracks of the Pennsylvania ana
the Amboy avenue road.
Owing to the length of time which
has elapsed since the state was ask
ed to pay part of the cost of paving
Amboy avenue and the failure OF
the city to make much progress be-
cause of numerous conferences made
necessary with the freeholders in Or
der to have the street returned by
the county to the. city. the aldermen
at their last meeting received a let
ter from the State Highway Com
mission requesting them to inform
that body as to the present status
of the project.
City Clerk Graham was instructed
to write to the highway commission
mediately following yesterdays
conference with the Barber Asphalt
representatives. No time will be lost
now in going ahead with the job.
City Engineer Morgan +. Larson was
present at the meeting with maps
showing the new proposed route. All
of the aldermen with the exception
of Alderman Robert A. Mcclure
were present at the conference.

WASHINGTON, July 26.-secre-
tary of State Hughes soon will in
vite the maritime nations of the
world to a conference to consider
ways and means to stop the pollu-
ton of ocean beaches and water
ways with oil.
With a view to developing a def
mite proposal for submission to the
international conference, an inter-
epartmental committee has. been
appointed to study the problem in
all it's phases.
Several weeks ago congress passed
a measure introduced by Represen-
tative Appleby of New Jersey pro-
viding for the calling of such a con-
ference. 1t was approved by Presi-
dent Harding and the appointment
of an interdepartmental committee
quickly followed.
On the committee are representa-
tives of the Departments of State,
War, Navy, Commerce, Interior,
Agriculture and the Shipping Board.
There have been many complaints
concerning the fouling of New Jer-
sey and other beaches with oil from
ships. the killing of fish in the sea

 Polly admits her chances are excel lent, because, she explains, the Prince is such an ath-aletic chap that we doubtless have much in common"
 Most of the stories about the Princes ath-a-letics," she said, tell of his playing polo, which is almost like golf, though not so strenuous, since one rides a horse instead of walking between shots. He does play some golf, for I read he played a match with that Japanese ruler, Prince Regent Isn't Regent a funny name for a Jap Prince?"
