The production last year was 551,000,000 tons. The actual requirements are approximately 15 per cent. great- er for 1918 than 1917, while the maximum increased production is 7V2 per cent. The Pittsburgh district is los- ing from 25 to 30 per cent. of its capacity of coal production due principally to car shortage, with little labor shortage. “If by the use of the Barge Canal you can jome of the cars now in will help the Pittsburgh district to an appreciable degr This is the opinion of the rity of the producers, ¢ but a few of the sig- t sure in the pos- | populace this | | two years It has been re enough cars to on of coal.

I visited these mines, ae set forth in these columns, and discussed the coal situation with superintendents, weighmen, miners and operators, Tho men are all anxious to do full | time, and more if necessary, but they |are handicapped with the car con- ditions, For example, as we entered the Arimide mine, near Carnegie, shortly after lunch, we met an old man who has been @ weighman for thirty years. They call him “Barney.” Old Barney was very much de- pressed. The day was only half over and he was on his way home. “We could have mined at least 600 tons more of coal, but there were no cars,” sald Barney, when asked about labor shortage. Barney told about his three sons at the front, one of them having en- listed before the war. “We could secure enough help, however,” said Barney, “and we could work In more shifts than we do, but there's the car trouble.” The miner never has had a chance to get tn full time, and thereforo he has been discouraged and called away to other industries, This idle- ness has done very little good for the miner, “Idleness is a very bad thing,” said Barney. “You know what Satan will do with idleness,” continued the eco- nomic Scotchman. “Around the mines Satan has been somewhat of a booze fighter, and the men have been so accustomed to working two or three days a week only that they havc jbecome sort of satisfed with that way of laboring, “Now the big thing that can be done for the miner to secure all the coal you need in the country 1s to get something that will exterminate the booze bug and keep sending rail- road cars, so there will be no need for idleness.” And in this homely situation in the mining district. The great cry is “cars and more cars.” In connection with this the railroad figures for the six months of 1918 have been received here from Washington, They show a very little increase of the railroad mileage operation from last year. The figures follow: The average number of operated in 1918 is 232,949.26. the same period in 19 The freight revenue for 1918 was $1,434,723,161. This revenue repre- sents an increase of $83,848,016 over the same period of 1917.
