AI1UNCE WITH RAILBOADEKS hue-han- . lN'DIANAI'OUS, I ml., Feb. l.-- Au alliance of union coal miucra and railroad worker the most jaiwrrful lalxir ruiosed group in the country wa today by John L. Lewis, president of the i'niied Mine Workers of America. An invitation to the railroaders asking them to east their lot with the miners was scut to heads of all rail brotherhoods as a direct outgrowth of a movement started at the Cleveland, U., con- vent ion of miners in 1019. "The organized mine workers of the country are extending the hand of fellowship to the men engaged in the railroad industry and are preared to join with them in an economic alliance that will u)ierate fur the protection and improvement of their atandurd of living," Lewis says. "The railroad workto accept iners have lieen (iraqa-llt-and proa-gand- a reductions adequate wage is now being conducted on a gigantic scale designed to enforce further unwarranted wage euts on them.

Such an allianee, if it should be perfected before the 'miners wage contract with the operators expires March Slst, would make possihle the absolute paralyses of the nations industries. If the operators would refuse to meet the miners terms and they have voiced their determination to fight to the last ditch a strike by the miners would atop production of coal and a symim-tb- y strike by the rail workers would tie up the entire transportation system of America. In hia invitation to the aixteen major unions of railroad men, Lewis "ventures to suggest that the time is now oportune fur the holding of a meeting of accredited representatives of each organisation for the above mentioned purpose. six-fo- ot He Gives Out Figures.

He placed the membership of the miners urion at five hundred thousand and the combined membership of the railroad unions at 1.500,000 to 1,750,000. Lewis denied, however, that the allianee in any way sought to compete with the American Federation of Lalior, but said that the unions sought to be drawn together were the largest groups of the latter organization. The federations membership, Lewis said, was abont five million workers. alii-nee- o ABOUT THE CAMPS OF CARBON WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 27. The scarcity of highgrade coke and a DISTRICT very great rise in price of all grades of it have made it almost necessary for some gas companies to consider the substitution of bituminous coal for coke as generator fuel even though grave difficulties were expected in maintaining the rapaeity of the plant with the new fuel. In Paper No. 284, "Coal and Coke Mixtures As Water Gaa Generator Fuel," by W. W. Odell, engineer and just issued by the United States bureau of mines, are given the details of studies recently made at with Davenport, la., in the Illinois state geological survey and the engineering experiment atationof the University of Illinois, in whieh very satisfactory results were obtained with the use of coke and Illinois bituminous coal in the manufacture of water gas. The experiments conducted at St renter, Tils., by the bureau of mines and the Illinois geological survey in 1918, set six to seven in operating a hours a day did not solve some of the iniMirtant questions in the use of coal fuel, namely the effect of a standover period on rapaeity with mixed fuels, roal and coke. The rliief purpose of the present paper, therefore, is to present the information hearing on these problems and the results obtained during six weeks of experiment at Davenport. using mixed generator fuel with ilie blowran method of operating. Data are included on the behavior of the various fuels used in the generator, the clinker conditions, the use of fuel high in ash and on the nse of roal high d, est and best salt deposits in the country ia at the southeast, gas has shown at many points and oil seepages occur in every well put down and the hills beyond Fallon are made up largely of oil shale.

Mach of the coal exported from the United Kingdom, especially the Cardiff fields, ia now sold below free on hoard cost, and it ia highly improbable that the British ran long continue to aell their exiorts at present prices, sajs the fuel division of the dejiart- ment of eommeree, basing its state ment on evidence produced from British sources. American eoal exporters have a fair elianre of getting a considerable share of the international poal business. Largely because of the prices of the British, their coal rxjiorts for the months of Angus!, October and November increased 32 ier cent over those of the corresponding months of 1920, whereas Uni toil States exports decreased 44 per cent in the same period.

Delbert II. Pape, general manager of the Lion Coal company, has resigned. This announcement was made this afternoon by the gentleman himself. He said that he had asked that the resignation lie effective Fcbrutry 1st, but at the request of the executive committee of the company he will remain until his successor is chosen. Immediately upon the appointment of his successor Pape said lie would go to California for an indefinite stay on account of the serious illness of Ids daughter. Upon his return, he added, lie would be associated with Ogden, Salt Lake City and Eastern capital in the development of a large eoal property in Utah.
