COAL SHORTAGE
OPINIONS OF AUCKLAND MEROHANTS. Press Association. AUCKLAND, May 6. Although the coal shortage is so acute at present! and thero seems little likelihood of any adequate'measure of relief, Auokland merchants interviewed seemed hopeful that the city "would worry through winter somehow." This was as far as they would go. "There in no doubt whatever that the situation is so serious," said one, "and although we are picking Tip supplies wherever possible they are greatly below the demand. The position is certainly worse than it was this time last year."
