i ¢ sociation through its ee ae SS iz ee AMERICA JUST BEGINNING TO FEEL A PINCH Capt. Baker Does Not Believe We Should Squeal at Sacrifice. COAL IS MOST IMPORTANT Fuel Cannot be Wasted on Any Pretext—Dakotans Must Burn Lignite. “The American people are begin- ning to feel what the people of Eu- rope have felt for three years—aj pinching of man ysupplies in daily life | and a cutting off of many comforts and luxuries formerly taken as a matter of course,” says Capt. [. P. Baker, federal fuel administrator tor | North Dakota, in discussing the pres.! ent fuel situation “All these economic | necessities must be curtailed to meet war demands, and the quicker everv | man, woman and child realizes, to the! fullest extent, what self-a i and self sacrifice mean, the quicker will the allies be supplied with all needed aids and the quicker will toe war be brought to a successful end. “The coal industry.” continued ministrator Bake as strained it. capacity to the utmost, and even with} the shortage of min the handicap of wa is every indication that output of anthracite and bituminous may reach 700,v00,000 tons. Even with that, there are 35,000,000 more tons needed to supply the abnormal war demands of our allies, for coal must be shipped to England, France and Italy. “The coal industry—both anthra and bituminous—produced some i 000,000 tons last year, as compared with 513,525,477 tons in 1914, a gain of 3 tons. In 1915 the produc- 619,487 tons, and in 1916 ‘as 590,098,175 tons. Still the cry is for more coal, for the de- mand exceeds the supply. “These figures show that coal must not be wasted on any pretext. They should serve to convince us, here in Dakota, that it is our patriotic duty to increase this shortage of anthracite and bituminous ‘coal by the very slightest possible margin. We are in a position to render our country areal patriotic service, at no very great personal rifice, by burning, whenever it is at all possible, our own native coal. Lignite cannot be shipped down ‘east to supply the needs of ‘th: industries there; it cannot be used) successfully on our .transports and our ‘supply and munition ships, but it can be used very satisfactorily in our home stovi nd heating sys: tems, and, as Americans whose hearts are in this war-as our sons and broth- ers and comrades and friends are in it, should need little urging to do this one. thing through which we can so greatly. serve the needs of our coun- try in this crisis. “Burn Lignite, even if it is less con- venient; burn. lignite, if at first it is disappointing.
