bins are empty under arrangements
which go into effect tomorrow.
Orders to d. c. Police.
The orders to District police
stress these facts:
A police certificate will be issued
only where the police find that the
householder's bin is empty.
The police will not handle the
arrangements for bin inspections by
telephone. The coal user must call
in person at the precinct station,
make his needs known, and only
then will an officer be sent to in
spect his bin.
The police take no responsible
ity for the delivery of coal. The
inspecting officer merely gives the
householder a carbon copy of the
certificate he has signed, and the
householder must take it to the
office of the Merchants and Man
ufacturers Association, Room 400,
Evening Star Building, Eleventh
street and Pennsylvania avenue NV.
The certificate does not mean
coal will be furnished to needy
persons free of charge, for all coal
delivered on the certificates must
be paid for by the consumer at
regular prices. Yesterday some per-
sons telephoned police under the
impression free coal would be avail
able.
To Guard Against Deception.
Officers are cautioned that In
their inspections they should bear
in mind that small quantities OF
coal frequently are stored in closets
or in bags or other containers in
unusual places and the officer should
be sufficiently thorough in his in
spection ito guard against deception
by the householder"
Robert L. Haycock, superintendent
of schools, said last night he had
received assurances from school
employees that the fuel situation
was "far better than two weeks ago."
The schools as well as the Dis
trict Building and municipal insti-
tutions, fire and police stations re-
ceive their coal and oil through the
Treasurys Procurement Division.
Procurement has approximately
10000 tons of coal earmarked for
the Public Buildings Administration
and several thousand tons which Is
available to the District. Officials
said procurement still has control
of all the coal, indicating that in
an emergency the District could get
additional amounts.
Procedure Outlined.
Coal users given certificates must
present them to the Merchants g.
Manufacturers Association office,
where an immediate coal delivery
will be arranged from the nearest
dealer.

& Manufacturer Association, in ap-
pealing for public cooperation in

Drastic Conservation
Ordered in Northeast
Over Coal Shortage
By the Associated Press.

The acute coal shortage in the
Northeastern United States yester-
day resulted in the closing of all
amusement places, schools, libraries
and museums in Albany and SYRIA
cuse, N. Y, and brought drastic con-
servaticn measures in other cities.
The Syracuse order was made eff
fective until midnight next Satur-
day unless sooner terminated"
The moves came IN the midst of a
severe cold wave, which was re-
sponsible for the shortage along
with freight tie-ups and three
day embargo on all but war ship
ments.
Mayor Frank S. Harris of Albany
proclaimed a coal shortage emer-
gency there and ordered the shut
downs beginning at dawn today.
Theaters Have 12-Day Supply.
Mayor La Guardia announced
there would be no more coal for
New York City's amusement centers
and universities until further
notice" except by his written per-
mission. Many of the city's amuse-
ment places, including Broadway's
famous theaters, receive heat from
a central plant which said it had IL
days supply of coal on hand.
The clamp-down was tightest in
Quincy, Mass, where Mayor Charles
A. Ross ordered all coal pooled and
distributed from police headquar-
tiers, 100 pounds to a customer.
In Providence, r. l., Mayor Den
mis- j. Roberts announced city
trucks would be assigned in extreme
cases to deliver coal or coke to
families without fuel.
Ingot Production Cut.
The shortage also affected war
production. The Republic Steel
Corp. reported curtailment of re-
serves had cut its production in
Cleveland by more than so per cent.
In Pittsburgh, the Carnegie Illinois
Steel Corp. said the three-day
freight shipment embargo imposed
Friday would cause a 14,000-ton in
got loss over the week end.
However, the embargo was
praised by Eugene w. Coughlin,
assistant to the chairman of the
car service division, Association of
American Railroads, in Buff
falo, N. Y.
"The embargo" he said, is the
best thing that could have hap
pened here from the standpoint Of
industry. 1t will give the roads the
chance to clean up the big backlog
of goods"

asserted the right of controlling the
appointment of Cabinet officers.
1t was an error of principle on
the part of the President not to
divorce the lending power from
the Department of Commerce be-
fore he nominated Mr.. Wallace.
For Mr. Wallace is the exponent
of a new policy, and the lending
power was vested in Mr.. Jesse
Jones for purposes which are diff
ferent from those which Mr.. Wal
lace proposes. Congress has a
right and a duty to pass on the
new policy, and it would in some
measure have lost that right if
Mr.. Wallace had inherited all of
Mr.. Jones's powers.
The George bill cures this err
ror. But those who want to go
beyond the George bill and reject
Mr.. Wallace because they dis
agree with his policies, have fallen
into an error which is at least as
great as the Presidents original
error. They should reconsider their
position. For they are, in the heat
of partisanship, proposing to de-
fend conservative principles by re-
sorting to acts that are radically
alien to the American system, and

Chronic bronchitis may develop if

TREASURY CHIEF
FAVORS TAX CUT

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-U.P)-
Secretary of the Treasury Henry
Morgenthau, Jr., today came out
in favor of selective postwar tax
reductions to encourage private
business.
Of course, little if any" reduc-
tons can be expected until major
hostilities cease, he said in mis-
report to Congress for fiscal 1914
which ended last June 30. Ger
tain reductions to aid business,
however, "are essential to reali-
cation of full employment in
peacetime economy Of free enter
prise and competition, he said.
Morgenthau asserted that the
Nation will be able to pay off
its huge public debt. He said that
strong postwar tax system
at rate higher than in the pre-
war period-would be needed to
reduce the debt rapidly.
Touching on the Breton Woods
agreement, he said world coop
GRAFTON with the proposed inter-
national sterilization fund and
bank is essential to revival of
world trade.
He predicted heavy postwar
spending, but thought people
would spend from their incomes
rather than cash in their War
Bonds on a large scale.
He denied reports that the gov
eminent might offer higher in
terest rates on its securities Of
ferings. Low interest rates would
contribute toward economic sta
bility and full employment after
the war, he said.
Total treasury receipts during
fiscal 1914 were $45 400, 000,0 or
five and one-half times those of
1941. This enormous intake failed
to meet even half of heavy war
expenditures during the same II
months, however.

Poor Digestion? iii {: :
headachy? 90
Sour or Upset? 90
Tired-listlesS? 90

Do you feel headachy and upset due to
poorly digested food? To feel cheerful
and happy again your food must be
digested properly.
Each day, Nature must produce about
two pints of vital digestive juice to
help digest your food. If Nature fails,
your food may remain undigested-
leaving you headachy and irritable.
Therefore, you must increase the flow
of this digestive juice. Carriers Little
Liver Pills increase this flow quickly
often in as little as 80 minutes. And,
you're on the road to feeling better.

counteract indigestion-when Carter's
