Coincident with Mr. McAdoo's an. nouincement that he would not p)ermit his name to go before the convention, Mr. Shouse issued a statement saying that an "active fight" would be waged for the nomination of Senator Glass, or Virginia, who has been looked up on as the certain choice to head the resolutions committee at San Francis Co. Mr. Shouse declared that the move ment for the nomination of Senator Glass "has already reached formidable 1)roportions," and that "a number of the most loyal 'McAdoo men" had de clared that they "would exert them selves to the limi.t lij hehalf of Sen.i tor Glass."

Washington, June 18.-A coal short age next winter which may curtail production of iron and steel and se riously affect other industries Is fore seen by the federaj reserve board in its regiew tonig-at for the mo':th of May. The situation already is acute In some districts according to the board, and producM in many lines Is being held down. 'Production of coal is being cur tailed chiefly as a result of shortagp of cars, the reserve board reports. It estimates the car supply at mines in the east at only 30 per cent of normal. Labor difliculties, while complicating the situation, are considered by the bloard as only a minor cause of reduced roal production, No reduction of coal prices is il sight, the bQard says, I Commenting on the far reaching ef feet of the car shortage and freight eongestion, the reserve board states that reports of its agents indicate that tle t ransportat ion tie-up is largely the result of the rail road strike which -;till continues over a large section of the country." 'le congestion is u irt her accentuiated accor(ing to the oard by local strikes of other groups Jf iransportation workers. Sjoratdic strikes in t he manufac tui. g ildlistris, niota bly textiles have :olitiellid to i(dieate unrest, the board *ys. An acute shortage of labor on rarvms is repolte i'd Wages apparently have fa tll behi nl thIe ad vancos in riC(s add cost of living, the board :ts.<erts, ,itle hio)e fo' a general reductiol in prices is held out biy the board tiough it suggests that changes in ri(cs that have taken 1)lace may furnish0l the hasis for a more fa r racthilig lteationi in ihe essential [ricev struvcturet. Chage1dring Mlay Ihe board says have borne witness of lmany11V distutrhini factors wihose im Po111ance :an( persistence are as yet icertain. C'onisiderable interruption to busi nless resulted during the month from labor and railroad dillieulties, tle board states. and the outlook has been such as to cause a severe curtailment in the volume of stock and securi ties transactions. Material lessening in the market value of liberty bonds and first securilties is attributed to these causes. CANDIDATES ENTER BOUTS FOIL OFFI('E Irby in Race for lnlited States Men ate.
