Coniplnints About Fuel.
Complaints are frequent these days
concerning Inability to got results
from the fuol administration. Re
quests for fuel from consumers vital
ly in need of coal, and whose failure
to get coal may affect tho lives,
health and property of a large number
of people, are sent to district head
quarters dally and the ono thing that
those requests inevitably bring is slow
action. ;
A largo number of small Nebraska,
towns nro out of coal or nearly out.!
Their requests have been received,
forwarded to headquarters and the'
railroad agents in charge of the coal I
are awaiting orders to supply them.
Tho ono thing that is getting on the
nerves of men who must hear these
complaints Is tho slow action on re
quests. Some coal requests are being
approved and some coal is being de-l
livored where needed, but In a number J
of Instances the margin of safety has
