What About
Your
Winter Coal
We are being asked that question every day now
and many times a day.
Unfortunately we can’t tell you very much more
than you know yourself. All the coal we had in stock
is either delivered or contracted for and new arrivals
; are very slow and uncertain.
j"><i tv cvciyuHng we can to make sure oi
enough coal both hard and soft to take care of our
customers and as many more as possible but we are
forded to say that prospects are not very bright.
The only thing we can suggest is that you place
your order with U 3 and we will fill them in order they
are filed.
We hope with you that some way may be found
soon to resume mining coal to full capacity because
the outlook even with mining resumed soon is anything
but reassuring.
Keep in touch with us as often as you wish and
we will tell you all the news thei;e is as fast as it
develops.
