A SERIOUS SITUATION.

LONDON, Aug. 21. Mr. Our Calthrop, the Coal Controllers addressing a conference of the Miners Federation at Southport yesterday, said that the country was faced with a coal shortage of 18,000,000 tone this year.

The deficit could be met only by "rationing" important industries not concerned directly in war work, and by an improved output. Our An privations far exceeded ours. France's ccal "ration" for a family of Eve was only 29 cwt. per annum, and the Ameri etesa, and the engineers run a pipe te it ican troops pouring into Franco meant a and it ia £led, no matter what its capa constantly increasing demand for ecol.
