Washington, Jan. 18 the statement by Fuel Garfield in explanation Supplics ~Following 1s Administrator of the fuel order: “Tho most urgent thing to be done is to send to the American forces abroad and to the Allies the food and war supplies which they vitally need. War munitions, food, manufactured | articles of every description, lie at our Atlantic ports in tens of thousands of tons, while literally hundreds of ships, | waiting, loaded with war goods for our | men and the Allies, cannot take the | seas beca their bunkers are empty of coal. The coal to send them on their way is waiting behind the con- gested freight that has jammed all ter- minals. “It is worse than useless to bend our energies to more manufacturing when what we have already manufac- tured lies at tidewater, congesting ter- minal facilities, Jamming the railroad yards and side tracks for a long dis- tance back into the country, No pow- er on earth can move this freight into | the war zone where it is needed until | we supply the ships with fuel “Once the docks are cleared for the valuable freight for which our men ! and associates in the war now wait in vain, then again our cnergies and power may be turned to manufactur- ing, more efficient than ever; s that a steady and uninterrupted stream of vital supplies may be this nation's an- swer to the Allies’ cry for help. ‘It has been excess of production, done so much to cause congestion on in our wartime speeding up, that has our railroads, that has fllled tho freight yards to overflowing, that has cluttered the docks of our At ports with goods waiting to go abr At tidewater the flood of freight s stopped. The ships were unable to complete the journey from our fac- tories to the war depots behind the firing line. “Added | to this has been the dtm-' culty of transporting coal for our own domestic needs. On top of these dif- ficulties has come one of the most ter- ribly severe winters have known in years. | “The we choked and ' zero weather and snow- tralns; terminals congested; harbors with shipping frozen in; riv- and canals impassable—it w. useless to continue manufacturing and pile confusion on top of confusion. “A clear line from the manufactur- ing cstablishments to the seaboard that was the imperative need. Tt was like soldiers marching to the front The men in the fore most ranks must have room to move, “More than a shock was needed to make a way through that congestion ! wheels were ! we must pay it, so that in the fac HOLLANDERS’ 82-88 ASYLUM STREET, HARTFORD.

There is, and always has been, plenty of fuel, but it cannot be moved to those place where it Is badly neceded while rail- road lines and terminals are choked Throughout the coal fields scores, and even hundreds, of mines are lying idle because of railroad inability to supply the cars to away their product Coal mines cannot operate without ars. Cars cannot be supplied while the railroads are crippled by the pres- | ent freight congestion, which keeps | idle cars lying useless in the freight yvards. “For the last week the production of coal has been disastrously reduced Reports in some cases have shown 90 per cent. of the mines in certain fields closed completely for lack of cars. “This is war.
