Drastic steps ordered to ease coal shortage

Wasl liggloit June 19. The interstate commerce commission ordered emergency action to relieve the coal shortage in New England and other regions by giving preference and priority to bituminous coal shipments for water transport to domestic destinations. The rule, effective next Thursday, requires eastern railroads to prioritize carloads bound for waterborne shipment and directs railroad mines east of the Mississippi to supply coal cars for 30 days. An export embargo is expected as rail agents cannot issue foreign movement permits while preferences are in place. At least 40 days are needed to clear domestic warrants if congestion is reduced.
