BIS Reports Increase
HIN Private Residential

An unseasonal advance in private
residential building, in response to
the present urgent demand for hous-

Almost twice as many homes in
this country are heated with bitum-
inous as with anthracite. Bitum-
inous Coal Research advises that
during 1945 approximately $40 mil
lion tons of bitumious were mined
and approximately 10 per cent was
used for domestic heating. This is
compared with an approximate total
of SIS million tons of anthracite
mined during 1945.
Bitminous can be used very eff

cluding warm air. There are many
kinds of bituminous; therefore, it is
important to choose the proper size
and quality. For the average six

 Paul explained that being a couple of hundred miles from the mainland a car couldn't be driven here, which seemed to be the implication the man was making, but that he would keep his eyes open in case
 Paul estimated from the time it took for the call that It would cost about S35.
 The funniest part of the whole thing was an incident preceding the conversation.
 Paul was sitting with the phone at hand, waiting for the connection to be made, when he remarked to someone in the Sig nal Corps office: "Who in .------- told those people in Washington that we had a phone at Kod- iak?"
 Paul didn't know it at the time, but his remark went wing ing over the air. On at least one radio in town the remark was heard, and the voice recognized!
 And now that the subject has come up, we feel we should warn some of our readers before it is too late that every radio tele- phone conversation can be picked up on almost any radio Tn town. From one of the conversations we heard, we should have men toned it sooner. It's against the law, of course, to divulge any such caves or should we say antenna- droppings, but having once lived on a rural party tele- phone line we feel the warning is Tn order.
