There is idle storage capacity of 15,000 tons in Norwich with not 3 pound of coal to fill it. The letter which expl follows: 2 Norwich Chamber of Commerce, Norwich, Conn. Gentlemen: We have the request uhder date of September 13 of the Connecticut Chamber of Commerce for some inform- ation regarding the shortage of anthra- cite tonnage in this city. During August, five of coal dealers of this city, consistinz of the following: The Edward Chappell Company. John" A. Morgan & Son, John 0. Peckham, Shetucket Coal & Wood Co. and Thames Coal Company, furnished this information to various organizations covering the period from August 1 and comparing the years 1919 and 1920.
