COAL SHORTAGE
ADMITTED TO BE ACUTE IN GERMANY NO RELIEF SUPPLIES BEFORE JANUARY. DEMANDS OF FOUR-YEAR PLAN. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. LONDON, December 29. The Berlin correspondent of the ‘‘Daily Telegraph” says that in the Press announcement that persons holding winter relief fund coupons for coal for the month of December will' not obtain supplies before January is the first official admission that Germany is suffering from an acute coal shortage.
The reason is the enormously increased demands made by industry in order to keep up the pace of the fouryear plan. Germany’s desire for selfsufficiency in petrol is also absorbing millions of tons annually for the extraction of by-products.
