COAL DEALERS TRY TO ACCOMMODATE AAL But Orders Are Far in Excess of the Supply on Hand, The local fuel committee, consisting of J. M. Thayer, F. J. King and M. E. Jensen, -has been at work for two weeks among the Norwich coal dealers and bave made report of the local an- thracite situation to Thomas W. Bus- sell, state administrator, at Hartford, says a statement issued Tuesday by the committee chairman. The present supply-and the future need of anthracite has been set forth in this report.. The cost and met profit of handling -anthracite coal has been . worked out. These two matters com- || prise the first duty to be-performed by the local committee. . _ This committee wishes to state that ‘while the dealers of Norwich have not received their full quota of anthracite coal, some of them have a reasonable supply on hand and have notice of other limited supplies in transit. They naturally are making every effort to replenish - their \stocks, the local com- mittee is doing what it ean in assist- ing, and the state administrator will knd his-powdr to improve the situa- ion. In - existing - circumstances coal is sold “in small lots only, and, in spite of much talk to the contrary, the deal- ers are doing their best to accommo- date everybody.
