which was attended by Jouett Shouse,
assistant secretary of the treasury;
Uan1iel C. RlopIer, former commission
er of Internal revenue; Frank R.
Willson, former director off 1iAberty
Loan publicity, and others.
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."
Alr. Olass was one of the adinis
tration leaders in the house of repre,
sentatives tjiltil he resigneld to become
secretary of the treasury when Mr.
MeAdoo retired. While in the house he
fatliired the federal reserve and farm
loan acts and since his appointmllelt
to the senate by Coveronr Davis early
1iuns year to -,uccvd the late Senator
Thonmas 8. .\lartin, he has sumported

COAL SIIORTAGE IN

serve Board.
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

C'onisiderable interruption to busi

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.
