The second embarces charges that

While there has been no decision
by the committee to take up the re-

WORK SOON TO GET

Show Why U. S. Coal Sale
Should Be Stopped.

Within a week, depending upon
the speed with which the bureau OF
mines complies with a request made
by+local fuel dealers as to mtne costs
and fuel costs in Washington, Secre-
tapy Work is expected to have before
him the case of the retail coal dealers
In Washington against continuation
ofrthe government fuel yard.
The dealers are preparing a brief
for presentation to the Interior De-
partment head in which they will
reiterate their request for abolition
OF. the fuel yard. Two weeks ago they
requested the bureau of mines to fur
nish them with cost and expense
figures. These figures, according to
q leading dealer, have not been fur
nished, and until they are furnished
the dealers cannot reply to a letter
from DIR. Work asking them to state
their case.
Work Continues Study.
In the meantime the Interior Sec
retary is going ahead with an inde-
pendent investigation of the opera
OF mines. Further developments are
forecast. in the course of which the
entire matter will be threshed out,
as has been done before.
"A report Cnat the bureau or mine IS
was negotiating to purchase a pro-
ducing coal mine in Pennsylvania
from which it would mine its own
fuel instead of purchasing from the

denied today by officials of the bu-
reau. Negotiations are in progress, it
was said. to purchase an experimental
mine at Bruceton, Pa, for expert
mental purposes only. Coal produced
by this mine will not be sold bureau
officials said, but will be used only
for purposes incident to it's operation
and the experimental work conducted
by the bureau.
