W. VIRGINIA COAL
 POPULAR IN NORTH
Emergency Rate Hearing Shows
 Demand for This Fuel
ANTHRACITE NOT NEEDED
I. (. c. Member is Told That New England Is Determined Never Again To Be Caught Without Fuel In Case of Strike.

Atlantic City, x. J.. June 22 LP,- Testimony taken before interstate commerce Commissioner Johnston .B. Campbell, Of Spokane, Wash, to- day at the hearing on the petition Of the New England governors fuel commission to make permanent the emergency rate fixed during the an- thraCita strike for all rail transpor- .tation from the West Virginia, West Iern Pennsylvania and eastern Ken lucky mines, indicated q demand for continuous supply of low volatile |semi-bituminous coal
 Want supply Assured Cross examination of witnesses by the opposition served only to cm- phasize the fact that New England in general and manufacturers in particular are determined that wage ,earners shall have an ample supply at all times. regardless Of strike con- ditions, of satisfactory fuel substi- { les for anthracite.
 ! Donnie Good, of Boston, repre- senting the Smokeless Coal Operat- ors' association, of West Virginia. gave evidence as to the educational campaign in the use of low volatile coal during the recent strike.
 Commissioner Campbell inquired whether the demand that now exists f is sufficient 10 warrant making per- |manent the joint rates for all rail transportation from the coal fields. and Good replied affirmatively.
 Cross examination brought out that the witness had been summoned by the New England governors fuel commission and had not been stnt
 by the operators whom he represent ed.
 Conn. Governors Proclamation He further said that the Connec- ricut governor's proclamation urging Ithe adoption Of low volatile coal warned against purchase of high yolatc gaseous coal.
 Asked whether he advocated the Use of bituminous as substitute for hard coal, the witness caused a laugh among the opposition by re-  plying, mot as a substitute-its a better coal" He predicted that it would displace the use of anthracite in New England.
 C. l.. Eyanson. president of the Manufacturers association of Con- .necticut, comprising 1,200 firms, tes- tified that his organization desired to establish as many sources Of fuel supply as possible. Connecticut peo- pie desire smokeless coal for future use 10 anticipate anthracite strikes and Ito avoid anthracite monopoly v
 Because of the prejudice against soft coal the manufacturers associa- ton in seeking the fuel for its thous- ands of employees, had to substitute something resembling hard coal and therefore turned to West Virginia and western Pennsylvania mines from which they obtained about 75.0oO tons, 15.0OO of which were in prepared sizes, the rest being "run-of mine" coal.

 The job of being an anaesthetist Is as important as it sounds. It takes years 10 learn the job, six months to learn to pronounce the word and at least a year of prac- tice 10 know how to spell #.
 Barely so years ago anaethesia was unknown and surgical opera tions were frightful things. If the patient did not die from the opera ton, he often succumbed from pain or nervous shock. Later, when an- aesthcsia was developed, it was giv- en in the form of ether of chloro- form, drop by drop on gauge placed over the patients mouth and nos trils, until he was asleep. Today chloroform is seldom used and ether usually is given in combination with g4s and oxygen in proportions 10 meet the patients physical condi- ton.
