4 ) i ] : 4 i} "FOR2 WEEKS AND PIES WIL DROP” This Is Message Sent to New "York by Council of Na- tional Defense, By Samuel M. Williams. (Special Staff Correspondent of The Evening Worl.) WASHINGTON, opie of New York City June 19—To the who are alarmed over their coal situation the Council of National Defense sends this message: If the public will stop buying coal for two weeks prices and conditions will go back to normal, ‘There is no thortage or danger of shortage in the anthracite supply. The mines are pro- ducing nfore than ever before, and thero will be plenty on hand for next ‘winter. “Tho present flurry and scare are due principally to rush of people to buy up all the coal in sight and to store up a year's supply ahead, through fear of possible shortage mext winter. If the public will stop its panic and proceed on normal lines, Prices will and conditions will comme more near to normal.” Reports to the council show that anthracite production in the Pennsyl- ‘vania mines for the first four months of this year was largely in excess of Production for the same period last year, Mine workers themselves coi firin the increase, There-is no great increase in consumption, nor is there such a demand for export of anthra- is for bituminous coal, 1 of the National De- fense gives absolute assurance that there is no need of a scare, Recause of conditions in the soft coal market, where there is both increase in do- mestlc consumption and foreign ex- port, the hysteria spread to the an- thragite market and caught hundreds of thousands of householders, who are wildly endeavoring to put next win- ter’s supply in their cellars now. As the Government possesses no power or regulation of marketing or price fixing the coal market ts running wild, says the council's report. As long for supply prices. will continue to ri: It Is considered probable that the Gov- ernment will pon have to take over contro! of the coal situation in order to protect the public as much against Po fits dwn hysteria as against the piracy of speculators and hourdeys who will noon béxin Speruting WM frel as they have done in food. a PERSHING AND JOFFRE GET A JOINT OVATION American General Now Working From Dawn to Dusk on His War Plans. PARIS, June 19.—The throng which haunts the Rue Constantin in front of the. spot where a great American flag marks the headquarters of Majox Gen. Pershing, got a new thrill to-day, Marshal Joffre, who had been con- ferring with Pershing for more than | en hour, emerged from the building, Behind * Joffre came Pershing. y ked together to Joffre’s automobile, Pershing swept aside the crowd and himeelf opened the uto doof for his distinguished visitor, The two saluted formaily, smiled informally—and Joffre speeded away. The American General is now working on a dawn to dusk schedule, Scores of conferences are scheduled daily and between these Pershing approves reports of his subordinate staff officers, consults with them and personally famillarizes himself with every detail of the arrangements for disposition of the army he will com- mand, when it shall arrive in France.

The daughter of the President will come to New York in the next two ‘weeks to inaugurate the Amertcaniza- tion Forum under the law passed in the recent Legiclature, As I have always said, Margaret Wilson is the most den -cratie girl in the country. Every time I talk with her this impression becomes deeper, And these are the days in which her democratic spirit is working over- time, giving of herself and her earn. ings as a® singer in the Interest of democracy, a true daughter of her fa- ther, I could not but reflect that a new day has dawned tn the era of things, as I sat in the White House discuss. ing with this thoughtful, earnest, gra- clous girl the possibilities of the school house as a medium for dis seminating knowledge and tion concerning the vital these war Aimes, Long before war was declared, and in fact ever since she came to the White House, she has been strongly urging the use of the school house as a community centre and forum in the interests of the people. nd when The Evening World be- gan the campaign for a law to create such centres and forums Miss Wilson came to Albany and worked In the interest of the measur d the law {s now on the statute books, It prescribes that the school houses of New York State shall be used for these purposes, Thus Miss Wilson has endeared herself to thousands of people by her personal interest in se- ) of school property rment in their inently and forcibly home to the peo- ple. The first official regulations gov- erning the cantonments were prom- |ulgated to-day when Secretary Baker announced the liquor sellers would bo, kept outside the two-mile “dead line" around the camps. For the past two weeks, since regis- tration day, army officers and army lawyers have been quietly working over the rules under which drafting and exemptions will be carried out. The Provost Marshal General has submitted to Secretary of War Baker the regulations prepared, and to-day they were sent to President Wilson for his approval, The President probably on Thursday or Friday will issue a proclamation ordering the draft and prescribing the methods to be followed. Excepting for the general out- line contained in the law, strict | secrecy has been mi | about details of the plan. No intimations have been given on | the subject of exemptions, which is of paramount interest to every man who has been registered. | Aliens, Federal and State Govern- ment officials, soldiers, sailors and ministers are specifically exempted. | | mental defectives will ! informa- needs of Crippl nd |be rejected by doctors.
