Al- corn and Arthur W. Upson, Buel B. Bassette, John Sloan and Severin Johnson, of the league. 1t is reported that the league mem- bers asked Mr. Alcorn to do all in his power to suppress the sale of in- toxicating liquor in this city. Among the requests presented was to have a sig® painted on the side of a block on Commercial street obliterated. The building was formerly occupied by a galoon. The sign advertises a brew- | ery which once helped to satiate the thirst of citizens. Tt is partly hidden by an adjoining building and cannot be read from the sidewalk. Chief Hart said today that he had no au- thorijty to have signs painted out.

Washington, D.C., July 35.—No comfort for the citizens of Connecti- cut, New York, New Jersey and the New England states, who are enter- taining fears of the repetition during the coming winter of last year's coal shortage is to be drawn from the re- | port just submitted by the coal com- mission, according to authorities moat conversant with the situation. TPederal Fuel Administrator Wad- leigh has stated that the searcity of anthracite and the high prices of last fall and winter will continue through next seagon, notwithstanding the com«~ missicn's investigations and recom- mendations. Even assuming that con- gress will be willing to act immediate- ly on the recommendations of the re- port, it is pointed out that this can- not be done before the close of next winter, since congress will nos con- vene until December 3rd. Two Years Too Late It will be two years after the min- ers' strike, that is, in the spring of 1924, before the commission’s remedi- al suggestions will have any chance of adoption, it is predicted. There is regret in many gquarters that congress is not now fn session an:l not likely to be calied into action in time to. legislate the coal commis-" sion’s recommendations into a definite and effectual program which might tend to insure a eufficient output. equitable distribution, and a fair price inr anthraeite during the coming au- timn and winter. As it is, the com- miesion's report and recommenda- tion will 1le fallow, it is forecast, while profiteers will have onte more an opportunity to expleit the necessi |ties and actual hardships of consum- ers as they did /ast year.
