By the Axuoeiatcl Pret*
NEW YORK, November 33. The

served upon the American Fair Trades
Dengue a formal demand that the
latter organization retract the "false 1
anil libelous" charge that hard coal
producers were mulcting the public
through a resizing plan forced upon
dealers.
The demand was served upon the

Gordon Merritt of counsel for the

A. Whittier, secretary.
Charge Called False.
