FUEL:
Yarn, Winter

Due to combination Of high pro-
duction Of coal and efficient trans
portation, u. S. homes will be well
warmed this winter, even though the
government continues to advise con-
servation to assure orderly con-
sumption to meet wartime needs.
With production having passed the
500, 900, 900 ton mark so far, soft
coal output is running Is, 900, 900 tons
over last year. Not only are rail
deliveries moving up to snuff, but
careful planning has permitted the
transport of great quantities Of coal
over the Great Lakes for distribu-
ton to adjacent territories.
How much foreign countries may
draw on u. S. coal supplies remains
undetermined, with British produc-
ton tagging and miners threatening
to strike for higher wages, and un-
certainty existing as to what ex-
tent output may be resumed in lib
Grated nations to help meet some Of
their own needs.

With the Russians attacking in

Referring to the bitter fighting in
East Prussia, where the Reds were
