Shortage Is Serious Says Interstate Head
B F Pickard president of Interstate Power warns the coal strike creates potential energy shortages. Oil plants may ease demand but oil transport is at risk. Conservation is vital as water power remains a small share. Coal stocks vary regionally with two weeks at Central States and City Laundering reports. Schools and churches anticipate limited fuel until February. Local dealers report adequate winter stock though some prep for tightening supplies exists.

Allies Unite Zones In Reich Allies Unite Zones In Reich
Secretary of State James Byrnes said the big four foreign ministers will discuss Germany this week but likely only agree on procedure. He outlined a plan for economic fusion of occupation zones, making the United States and Britain equal partners in a single area with a unified ration base and eventual economic self sufficiency. The immediate cost in 1947 rises about 100 million dollars, but Byrnes predicted savings and self sufficiency after three years under unity.
