WANTS WEEKLY REPORTS FROM RLE FUEL OEMS Fuel Administrator ByrtI Issues Gcn? oral Bulletin us to Shortage. SITUATION* MOST C R I TIC A L | llcsircs to Find Bequireineiits of i Each Community So That Scarcity May Bo 1 lor no Equally by .Ml Lo calities. Harry Flood Uyril, Federal fuel ad- i mlnlsfrator for Virginia, yesterday | aont the following letter to all retailers I of fuel In Virginia: BULLKTIN lo. To All Uetailers in the State of Vir ginia: Through the local fuel commissions I thia ofllce Is endeavoring to ascertain 1 the following: ' 1. The approximate consumption of . each coal-receiving point in Virginia j for the months ot January, February | and March. The existing contracts, and to ! what extent these contracts can be de- ! ponded upon to supply the require- ! inenta. i TO ascertain tills Information f have I sent to every fuol commission in Vir- j glnia forms and full information for ] compiling thy data des ired. This is to j ask your co-operation, .so that the local luel commib.tions can obtain this lufor- ? matlon as promptly a41 possible) and ' forward to me. It is obvious that with j this information at hand, I can much m??re intelligently proceed to supply the necessary requirements throughout j the State of Virginia. Please forw*r<! me n? reports In closed Monday, January 7. and every 1 Monday thereafter, full Information re carding your coal receipts and quantity on hand for the Saturday preceding. 1 This report is to be made tip on each Saturday night and mailed to me on ' Monday. In the event that you do not j receive any coal, please so state and return the report. Under separate cover a supply >>f reports and franked envelopes ia being t>cnt yo'i. so that these reports can be mailed without postage. The coal situation throughout Vir ginia, as well as elsewhere in tin United States, is reaching a >i:om ct.ti- ' ca.1 stage. Ky reason of the continua tion of existing contracts, only ?'? !<? r ? cent of tho output o; the mines is ..\iil- \ able for government distribution. In all cases tho fuel administration d<-- ! sires to obtain the requirement.-' ot each ! community from existing contracts or 1 from parties who have previously tup- i plied. A shortage ?>f i'J.OOQ.OOO tons exists. ' This shortage mutt be borne equally by 1 all communities, and in no ease- can normal requirements be supplied. 1 ? want you to undervinnd that every ef fort on my pan will be exerted toward 1 furnishing your community, through | yoyr local commissions. with your minimum need.-:. I can make no prom- ^ ise, however, as to coal shipments. but j upon receipt of request will endeavor to keep each local commloalon advi&ed. i The fuel administration must view j the coal situation from the standpoint . of the entire community, and not from j the standpoint of the individual re- I taller. Tliat Is t > s.iv. providing that I a community as a whole is .securing ; sufficient coal, the administration will j not exert efforts to obtain shipment* j from such retailers who are without supplies unless the needs ot the com- i inunlty as a whole justify it. 1 am ' certain that by reason of the existing j crisis in the coal situation the justice i of this policy will be readily appreci- i ated. Please appeal to the luel adrr.lnlh- ! tratlon only when you have exhausted every other cfiort to obtain coai. ' Please understand it is not the func- , tion of the fuel administration to sup- i Ply all fuel requirements, but only to ! endeavor to supply emergency coat ? when your own efforts have l.een ex- : hausted. , I ask your co-operation in making' these reports very promptly. Thi? win ! be of great value to me In securing the ; essential requirements of your locality. Very truly yours. 'Signed) 11. F. IIYRP. Federal Fuel Administrator for Vlr- ? girila. RAISE HOGS AT CAMP LEE j Karmer Sns*??l" Tlan for Coinrn.-itlnn of Kefusr froin Soldier*' Table. The idea of raising hogs at <"'amp T.ee, 1 lias been presented to Adjutant-general j Sale by a Virginia farmer, who has u , brother in the camp. The former in | question ia of opinion that the table | refuse there is sufficient to feed a larse j drove of hogs. He also offers the gov ernment with which to rto>l? the farm , at camn some pure breed Poland China | pig:s. Following Ik the letter received | by Adjutant-Generul Sale: "I have a brother who Is in the train ing camp at Camp I-ee and he is an ex perienced fartner and hog-raiscr. and it seems to me that it would be a good thing to raise hogs at the camp and ' feed them the garbage from the tables.; He has some hogs here and If you will j allow him to attend to them 1 will ship, them to him and he will giv-i ail in crease. to the government. These hogs aro pure breed Poland China anil arc ot the big type. If you can arrange to do j this he would want to remain at the camp all the time while it is open. I ; note that thsre is a lot of vacant land i there and lie could grow som<? oops for the hogs and the garbage would feed i a good many. Please, let :nc hear from j you In regard to thl*.
