Hartford, November 21.—The aver- age American’s love of fresh air when he sleeps has been found to be the cause of source of waste in coal which Thomas W, Russell, Federal Fuel Ad- ministrator and chairman of the_coal committee of the .Connecticut State Council of Defense, is trying to elim- inate. Mr. Russell has had printad and is distributing a card which bears the slogan, “Don’t Try To Heat All Outdoors,”’ and warns people who open their windows at nignt that they should first sbut off their radiators or registers. Apartment house owners, hotel pre prietors and other people who heal buildings used by more than one ten- ant have complained that their ef forts to save coal are hampered by people who gc to bed early in the cvening and open the windows of their bedrooms without shutting off the heat, For the rest of the evening the heat thrown off by the radigtors is wasted on the outdoor air and tho radiators are cooled so rapidly by the cold air which enters the bedrooms that a larger amount of coal than us- ual is needed to keep the other radia- tors in the building up to a satisfac tory temperature. It has been esti- mated that many tons of coal could be saved every day in Connecticut alone if the practice were abolished. The cards issued by Mr. Russel afe to be distributed throughout the state and the first allotment will be sent to the hotels, which will be ked to post one card in each of its rooms or suites, Later cards will be sent to owners of apartment, tenement and rooming houses. ter. 5 Miss Carrle E.
