Con- fusion resulting from diversion of coal at destinations is slowing up the movement of empty cars back to the | mine districts. | It was made clear industries pro- | ducing materials on which munitions | plants are dependent are excepted from provisions of the closing order. The fuel administration today ruled that lumber producing concrns work- | ing on orders for the emergency fleet | corporation and aircraft production board are exempt. | Officials said the tone of telegrams | coming in was entirely different from those of yesterday and most of them either approved the government's action or expressed willingness to co- | operate. Reports to the fuel administration | today showed :ransportation con- | gestion throughout the east being | cleared and bunker coal being unload- | ed in increasingly large quantities. | Few empty cars, however, have be- | sun to move back vet to the coal | mines. The fuel administration today | sued a definite order changing the heatless day for theaters from Mon- | day to Tuesday. | | It was definitely Tuled today that all | laundries are exempt from the clos- ing order on Mondays as well as dur- ing the five day closing period. Ships in Hampton Roads are re- | ceiving bunker coal today faster than | at any time in many weeks, according to reports to the fuel administration. Coal was said to be moving in very freely for bunker and domestic use. The domestic supply moving to New York was said to be greater than in three or four weeks. Milder weather which facilitated water transportation | between New Jersey points and New York aided materiall.

A despatch to the London Daily News from Petrograd on January said it seemed probable then that the as- sembly would contain a majority | against the Bolsheviki. On the pr vious day the social revolutionists is- sued a manifesto denouncing the Bol- sheviki as usurpers. The constitu- | tional democrat party was formerly one of the strongest in Russia, it leader being Paul Milukoff, former foreign minister. | FOR NEW ENGLAND | Ruling on Barber Shops, Clubs, Office | Buildings, Btc., Announced by James J. Storrow. | Boston, Jan. 19.—James J. Stor- row, New England fuel administrator, today issued the following ruling: “Barber shops are permitted to open until 12 o’clock noon on Mon- days. After that hour they are re- | quested to close and will not have | the right to use any heat in the aft- | ernoon or to give anything but cold water shaves in the afternoon and evening. “I have ruled that it will be a direct violation of the order for tenants | of office buildings to turn on steam | | in their offices in buildings occupied | ! by banks, trust companies and trans- | portation companies. Any tenant in a heated building who turns on steam | and is not entitled to by exemption | will be severely punished.
