GREAT SAVING
(Bril-.ish Oflicial Wireless)
help for Coal industry.
RUGBY, Monday. In connection with the Scythia's fuel experiment, the Times states the Cunard Company is satisfied that it is really a new national asset. The Cunard Company uses about 1,000,000 tons of fuel annually, all of which is purchased abroad. If this can be reduced to 600,000 tons and the balance made up of British coal the outlook for that depressed industry Will be changed. The importaiice of the experiment is fully realised by the Government, and the Admiralty and Board of Trade lent every assistance. The Cunard Co.'s New Yorlc officials state that the liner Scythia's tests of oil and pulverised coal fuel realis6d all expectations, and they are delighted with the experiment. A new vista seems to have been opened for British shipping. Merchant ships and naval vessels will no longer be altogether dependent upon foreign fuel.
