Maw, and the Utah Coal operators oper-ators association,, for aid in alleviating al-leviating a threatened coal shortage short-age in this area were forwarded Saturday by the Provo chamber of commerce, Clayton Jenkins, secretary, announced. Local dealers say that the present pres-ent cold snap has brought demands de-mands for coal far beyonds their ability to supply, since the" Car bon county mines are unable to supply domestic demands and meet war orders at the - same time. The letters sent out Saturday point out that many families are suffering for lacl: of coal because they had not coal storage facilities facil-ities this summer. The appeals to store coal during the summer met with good response, but not all consumers were in a position to heed the call. It is also pointed out that more than 7000 workers are now engaged en-gaged at the Geneva works plant, an influx that is entitled to greater allocation of coal to this area. Many of them will quit their defense plant jobs and seek warmer climate unless adequate coal supplies can be secured for this area.

War work demands study, reading of bulletins, newspapers, magazines and books to keep up with vital changes. Sewing, knitting, and many other popular handicrafts are booming, and all require good, sufficient lighting. As helpful suggestions toward the protection of precious eyesight a distinguished lighting author-ity author-ity has offered these four, simple basic rules: Be sure you get enough light for the job you are doing. 2. Avoid sharp contrasts. Don't have all the light concentrated on the work in your hand while the remainder re-mainder of the room is dim or in darkness. 3. Avoid glare, because soft light is far easier on the eyes. 4. Don't fail to have enough lamps one at every desk, table, or sink where close work is done.

John arrived in Hawaii just a short time before December 7 and hr got a taste of the Jap handiwork at Pearl Harbor. Although serving serv-ing his country in the Navy, he wanted to be able to help out other ways, too, so decided to study Japanese. So, he has. been boning up on it for the last year at the University of Hawaii and is doing right well with one of the world's most difficult tongues. No One Laughed When He Started To Talk-Recently, Talk-Recently, he had a chance to use his knowledge and also help his country. When claimants began to appear this month at three local Japanese banks, where their funds have been frozen since the war, the sailor was able to explain to the old-timers, in their own language, about the process of signing for their money. He also went a step further, and helped sell over $500,000 in war bonds to the Japanrw as they left the teller's window. "I was a littl scared at first, because I thought they might laugh at my Japanese," heexplained. "But they didn't laugh, t'ney wero just surprised when they heard me spak. And they really bought war bonds!" Our Boys In the War (If Tjou nave any new about son, brother or father in tne armed forces, the Dally Herald would Like to print It. Send It In.)

Politlcnt Advert I wmnt POTATO PRICES TO BE ADJUSTED WASHINGTON, Oct. 31 (U.R An office of price administration spokesman reported Saturday that a price ceiling regulation will be issued before Dec. 3, "ironing out any inequities' in present potato prices. He said the regulations can not be ready "within a day or two" as predicted yesterday by Sen. John Thomas, R-, Ida., and that he was unable to say when OPA experts will finish work oh it. The spokesman also disagreed with Thomas' assertion that the existing order "freezing" potato prices temporarily at Sept. 28 to Oct. 2 levels had forced the market mar-ket price down from J1.20 a bushel on Sept. 15 to 75 cents on Oct. 15 because no provision was made in the "freeze" for storage costs. Inability 6T producers to store the new crop now coming on the market, forcing them to sell "from the car" at relatively low prices, undoubtedly is largely responsible for the price drop, the spokesman said. But he denied that this was caused primarily by the freeze" order. He said the principal reason was the shortage of storage space caused by wartime congestion.
