LONDON

Sending
en.ils
tn
'NmvPMfl,
isn't
absurd
in
post-war
Britain
it
could
come
true.
"If
we
can
get
coal
abroad
to
relieve
our
necessities,
by
all
means
we
will
do
it,
"Prime
-Minister
Attlee
it.i

To
cut
down
on
consumption
of
coal-nroducec?
electricity
and
gas,
government
spokesmen
said,
domestic
savings
perhaps
even
rationing
and
allocation
to
industry
according
to
'their
importance
to
the
nation
will
have
to
be
continued
for
two
or
three
years.
Planned
distribution
of
coal
under
government
direction
probably
will
have
to
continue
even
longer.
And
this
year
passenger'
trans
port
services
are
being
cut
10
per
cent
from
1946
to
save
coal
and
provide
extra
locomotives
for
fuel
trains.
That
is
the
measure
of
today's
fuel
shortage
In
a
country
which
became
a
great
industrial
nation
because
it
had
great
quantities
of
coal,
which
still
gets
95
per
cent
of
its
power
from
coal,
and
whiah
used
to
export
enough
coal
to
pay
for
all
its
imports
of
wheat.
Despite
the
promise
of
atomic
energy,
there
is
no
substitute
for
coal,
now
or
in
the
near
future.
Getting
enough
coal
Is
the
United
Kingdcm's
fundamental
problem.
Economically,
It
holds
the
key
to
future
nrosuerity.
Polit
ically,
Attlee'a
Socialist
govern
ment
would
be
in
canger
if
next
year
saw
a
repetition
of
Febru
ary's
calamitous
shutdowns.
PLENTY

STILL
There

Arthur
Horner,

of

of

said
South

5,000.000,000

There
Is

in
Kent.
Durham,
Yorkshire,
Cumberland,
the
Midlands
and
all
the
North.
The
trouble
is
to
get
it
mined
For
that
there
are
not
enoug
miners,
not
enough
machinery,
not
even
enough
pits.
For
d?cades.
and
particular
since
the
1920
general
strike,
the
mining
industry
has
declined,
its
history
punctuated
by
labor
bitterness
and
unrest
Fiom
1.230,000
in
1925,
employment
has
slumped
to
700,000
now.
Production
has
dropped
from

2,250,000
