HOUSEHOLDERS Even with the mercury golng down | to winter leve Washington house- holders are showing very little in- elination to take soft coal and coke | as substitutes for hard coal, accord- ing to Robert L. Lewis, secretary of the Coal Merchants’ Association. One of the largest dumps in the city sent word to Mr. Lewis that they did not have a pound of hard coal on band vesterday. but had an ample | aupply of lump bituminous and high- grade by-product coke which nobody seemed to want. Good Substitutes, He Sa; Mr. Lewis pointed out that hoth of | these fuels are good substitutes for anthracite. The coke, he said. is of exceptional grade for household use. But, he added, houscholders ap- parently are timid about taking these | fuels. hoping that the supply of hard coal will increase as time goes on. Reports of the public utliitles com- mission show. however, that up to November 4, Washington was 18,000 tons short of the amount of hard coal it should have received. Foresees Hardshi, Mr. Lewis said last night that if customers continue to turn down the lump bituminous and coke dealers will hesitate to order more of these fuels and the result will be hardship later in the winter.

Mr. Daugherty stated that the crim- inal division of the Department of Justice in a report covering its op- erations. had made the following statement: “The fallure of local self-govern- ment in parts of the country results in the insistence of the citizens of those communities that the federal government perform that function in ‘which the local government has failed and frequently in matters where there is concurrent jurisdiction between the state and federal government, it is difficult to establish & policy of the extent to which the federal govern- ment should take jurisdiction.” SENATOR WATSON TALKS BONUS WITH PRESIDENT White House Call Result of Lead- ers in Congress Desiring to Reopen Question. Views of President Harding on the soldiers’ bonus question in the light of| i T i the recent elections and in view of the { determination of some bonus advo- cates to bring up the matter at the regular session of Congress, were sought by Senator Watson of Indiana, a republican leader in the Senate, in |& visit yesterday to the White Hous Numerous members of Congress are understood to have returried to Wash- ington feeling that the bonus still re- mains a question of which the admin- istration must take cognizance. Some members, particularly those from the west and middle west, have declared openly their belief that the attitude of the administration on the question was, in part, responsible for republi- can losses in their sections, and that there was a strong demand that some further consideration be given to sol- dier compensation. | These views, it was learned today, | have been communicated to leaders, with the suggestion that some step: be taken to ascertain at the outset of the session whether the President was adamant against compensation for the soldiers unless financed by 2 sales tax.
