EW YORK is justified in demanding that a little cool, hi common senso be brought to bear on the proposal to clos: amusements and other evening activities at 10 P. M. or earlior in tho interest of fuel saving, When such a step becomes a recognized economic nece war this city will accept the loss it entails without question or plaint. But the fact that fuel administrators, grappling with big and vunaccustomed tasks, have encountered initial difficulties that involve them in tomporary blockades and tangles does not prove that the immense coal resources of the country are impaired Or that those resources are not ample, with more efficient dis tribution, to supply war needs and still leave a comfortable margin for industrial and private consumption for a considerable time to come, It is quite possible, in fact, that a year hence, if the nation is still at war, coal will be produced and distributed far more plentifullt and regularly than now when fuel administrators have so many lessons to learn and 80 much of their programme to work out. Even a few weeks may see a vast improvement in the situation. A. H. Smith, of the New York Central, who is Director General Me- Adoo’s first aid in charge of transportation on Eustern lines, declared esterday that Government operation of the railroads has already pro «ressed fur enough to guarantee that there will be no further coal famine in any part of the country this winter. Ho expressed the belief that neither in New Kayland nor in New York, whero the cual shortage has been worst, will industries have to shut down for lack of fuel or householders fail to receive reasonable supplies, Why then should New York change its hours, destroy hail the business of its theatres and restaurants and inflict serious loss in many directions, when it is plain that better organization of traffic alr: ady promises adequate delivery of cual? It is not fair to nag at the fuel administrators and the Govern- ment railroad directors. They have had to tackle new and unfamiliar jobs and it may be assumed that they are getting them in hand as fast as is humanly possible, But until it is clearly shown that all ways and means of oblaining and distributing more coal have been exhausted, there is no need of imposing upon New York or any other city schomes of hasty and pre cipitate privation, cb it tes a ne CHICAGO, Jan, 10.—Net profits far surpassing all y+ u ‘ecords were reported by Swift @ Co., packers, to-day, for the iscal year onded with September, 1917.
