Few people in Lonflon know that the Savoy Hotel burns no coal. It is the first hotel in the kingdom to take advantage of fuel oil. The test has passed the experimental period, with the result that other hotels are expected tn cancel their coal contracts very soon. In the old days the Savoy burnt 20,000 tons of coal a year. Coal carts were at the door all day long. The storing capacity was ono days’ reserve of coal; now the Savoy keeps fourteen days’ reserve of fuel oil.
