Garfield Resignation to be Accepted by Wilson
Washington reports the resignation of Fuel Administrator Garfield was sent to the President and will be accepted. Director General Hines will wield Garfield's authority, but Hines not named as fuel administrator. National coal concerns rise as demand outpaces production and calls for maximum output intensify. Chicago notes a broad uptick in bituminous coal production amid some miner resistance. New U.S. coal region estimates place city area at 914,008 square miles with a population around 3,660,074 as of February 1919.
