So far as New York and East ern cities are concerned I cannot see that this measure is necessary. Snmil sizea of hard coal are principally used for steam and powor purposes In this section and authentic reports advise us that dealers' yards aro crowded with this kind of coal and that there Is a supply at the mines that will last for many months. , \Llghtless nlffthts and curtailment of power mean restriction of Industry, with consequent loss of revenue, at a time when every penny Is needed to meet tremendous Government expendi- tures.
