COAL PRODUCTION HEAVY,
GEOLOGICAL SURVEY SAYS

Both bituminous and anthracite
coal production Is now greater than
1t has ever been at this season of
the year. according to estimates made
public today by the geological sur
vey. For the week ended Saturday
last total output of bituminous was
placed IN the neighborhood Of H.
100000 tons. with anthracite produc-
ton approximately 100000 tons.
Increases in the daily average out
put from the soft coal mines which
have been noted since the Christmas
holidays. the survey said, can be at
tributed to betterment of transporta-
ton conditions. East of the Mississippi
river, II was said. consumers have

has been possible to mine and trans
port, but west of the river the supply
has exceeded the demand in many
places and mine operations have been
closed down because of lack Of

Summing up the results of 1922
production in the. anthracite fields.
the survey pointed out that during
December a total OF 8.430,000 tons
was turned out. a greater amount
than was ever previously mined dur
ing the same period. Due to the five
months miners strike, tine output of
anthracite for the year, however. was
only 52,485.000 tons. as compa red

jerks declared that a distinction
should be drawn between the attitude
of the. German government and that
of the German people. Although the
Cuno cabinet might adhere to the
policy Of fulfillment" and be willing
to abide by a reparations agreement,
German citizens are engaged in a
wholesale attempt to put their prop
erty into non-taXable forms.
When they sell in foreign countries,
instead Of accepting money in pay
ment they take il in the form of
credits" which are non-taxable.
Captain of industry and chamber
maid, prince and pauper. are doing
that sort of thing. Jenks said. The
result is that however we'll inten-
toned the German government might
be in its desire to obtain real wealth
for reparations payments, the diff
culties Of laying hands on this wealth
for revenue purposes were almost in
surmountable. America, the Neither
lands. Switzerland. the Scandinavian

Great Britain notoriously are de-
positories for vast sums Of German n

age to Minimum, Owner Says

- Fire originating from a lighted
lantern carried by negro employed
on the place destroyed a barn on
the farm of George W. Riley, three
miles out of Americas, on the low

night. Besides the barn, farm ma
chinery valued at $500, ten tons OF
peavine hay and a bale of seed
cotton we're burned, the loss is
placed at $4,000 with no insurance.
The Americas fire department sent
a chemical engine to the scene OF
the fire and succeeded in preventing
a number of adjoining buildings
becoming ignited.
Mr.. Riley today stated that the
fire was caused probably through
carelessness or ignorance of an en-
ployee of the farm sent into the
barn by ]. C. Stephens, farm super
intendent, to get out truck stor-
cd there. Carrying a lighted Ian
tern, this man sought to draw some
gasoline from tank placed in the
barn, the vapor from the storage
tank becoming ignited, the flames
spreading rapidly,
The barn, Mr.. Riley stated, was
built in close proximity to number
of other buildings, which were saw
ed from destruction only through
the assistance given by the Amer
icus fire department, A telephone

eral trained fireman and a chemical

that only for the work of the de-
partment additional buildings
would have ben destroyed with an
