WINTER SUPPLY SHORT Announcement of Fair Prices De- layed Due to Varied Quotations at Different Mines. The Public Utilities Commission will continue to function as the fuel administration of the District. This decision was reached at the conference yesterday afternoon be- tween the commission, théffcoal deal- ers’ committee and representatives of the trade bodies. As stated in The Star yesterday, the coal men took a stand at the meeting in,favor of continuation of control, feeling that conditions were nat clodé enough to normal to warrant unrestricted distribution of coal The commission learned at .yester- day’s conference from a well inform- ed source that Washington can only expect about. seven-twelfths of its normal supply of hard coal this win- ter Will Seek Federal Fund. ! This makes apparent the necessity for continued control over distribu- tion to see that one consumer does not get more than another It also was decided at yesterday's conference to have the commission ask Congress for a deficiency appro- priation of $3,000 to defray the ex- pense of fuel control. CIDER WITH KICK CAUSE OF QUIZ SENT DAUGHERTY Can the farmer be allowed his cider with a kick, unmolested, while the city man is outlawed with 2.76 per cent beer? This question was-put before At- torney General Daugherty yesterday by Representative Hill, republican, Maryland. He forwarded corre- spondence with Prohibition Commis- sioner Haynes, declaring: “You will observe from this corre- spondence that while citizens are be- ing arrested for possessing 2.75 per cent beer the Anti-Saloon League of Maryland advises my constituents that ‘the present reguiations made in pursuance of the Volstead act permit the farmer to have cider and let it ferment and become intoxicating, al- lows him to drink it in his home, or give it to his friends when they drop in.” “The fedéral prohibition commis- sioner cannot tell me whether the above statement is correct” Mr. Hil added, “He says he does not know. As a represental in Congress of the United State: request that you ad- vise him.” REGISTERS OPPOSITION TO CUT IN D. C. ESTIMATES Congress Heights Association Crit- cizes Action of Budget Bureau. l Improved Sewerage Requested. The Congress Helghts Citizen’ As- sociation went on record as being op- posed to the recent cut by the bud- get bureau of the District Commis- sioners’ estimates, at the regular meeting of the association at Congress Helghts Baptist Church last nikht. The flooded condition in the vicinity of Oxon run after a rain was de- clared deplorable. It was stated that the residents on Yuma and Xenia streets have to wade in water which submerges the lower floors of their homes_ following a rain, and it was voted that the District Commissioners be asked to devise some means of re- e While the commission will continue |jjor as it has in the past to watch records of coal sales to prevent exorbitant charges, it was learned today that fair prices will not be announced at present. Prices May Vary. Tt had been expected that the com- mission would make public a fair price of between $10.50 and $11 a ton for soft coal, but, according to one District official, the prices of this coal at different mines is varying to such an extent that what would be a fair price for one dealer would be un- fair for another. The commission, therefore, will concentrate its price- regulating activity on actual sales. As to anthracite coal, the commis- sfon will not know what the fair price should be until that kind of fuel begins to arrive more plentifully.
