Baer Says There

for Everybody
PHILADELPHIA. Pa.. Nov. 11. "If tho
peolpe are patient I seen -no reason why
the public cannot be fully supplied with
coal without any suffering," said George
F. Baer, president of the Reading com
pany, In discussing today the reported
shortage of anthracite coal. Ho said the
difficulty In the way of Increasing the
output of coal was primarily due to mlno
strikes.
1'Our company," Mr.. Doer said, "has
made an honest effort to supply the public
and to keep down the price of coal.
So far as I know, none of the large
producing companies has sold coal above
circular prices and In a number of In
stances they have warned the dealers
who buy coal from them that any at
tempt to advance prices would result in
cutting qff their supply. So far as the
Reading lrf concerned, this policy will be
maintained."
