Washington, March 25--President Wilson within a few days will sign an executive order, directing all de- partments of the Federal 'iovern- ment to purchase and store up & three months' supply of coal during May, June and Juiy, it was learned tcuay. State and county Governments and public utilities will be urged to do likewise. . The result will be, in the opinion of experts of the National Coal Com- the mines will be kept busy during the dull season, the fran- tic rush of work in the mines as win- ter comes of, will be eliminated, and there will be such a saving that the 27 per cent wage increase granted the miners by the commission will be absorbed and not passed on to the public. If ngt absorbed the wage in- reases granted 500,000 miners, if cHarged entirely to the consumer will incroase the price of coal 16% per cent beginning April 1st, it was esti- mated. 2 The issuing of Wilson's executive order will be a great step toward stabilizing'the coal industry and pro- tecting the consumer, it was believed here today. In its recommendations the commission pointed out that "ir- regularity .of mining operations is the primary cause of the unsatisfac- tory condition of the industry and re- sults in higher prices of coal and dis- satisfaction among miners." The gov- ernment purchases during May, June and July, if followed by State and county Governments and public utilities, are expected to 'iron out this irregularity. "The annual output of the coal in- dustry is approximately at $1,300. 000,000," it was stated today at the 'offices of the Coal Commission, "It is estimated that by making the de- mand for coal spread evenly through the year, pot léss than sixty days can be added to the operating time of the mines.

He de- scribes the overnight rioting in Dub- lin as another danger signal, and says it is impossible to get an im- partial account of the incident, the popular version being that the sol- diers provoked and assaulted civi- lians. The correspondest says the sol- diers were stoned by a crowd because they left the theatre singing the national anthem as a protest against the failure of the theatre orchestra to play it. He adds thet public opinion throughout the country is exasperated by a wild charge against the police and soldiers, who hardly would be human if they did not re- sent the campaign of murder and calumny. ------------------------ TO LAY NEW RAILS Grand Trunk Will Improve Montreal« Brockville Track.
