COAL USERS SHOULD BE ECONOMICAL
POSITION OF BRITAIN'S SUPPLIES. (By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright.) London, June 9. Tho report of the' Coal Committee states that 191,170 miners joined the Army to the end of February. The shortage of production owing to the war would total 12,000,000 tons this year. If there was no avoidable absenteeism on the part of the men the output could increase to the extent of 14,000,000 tons, but if labour were further withdrawn, the reduction in the output would likely be serious, and would aifect the industries. "Tho public should realise," states the report, "that their patriotic duyt is to economise in their coal."
