Excerpt from Wood Fuel to Relieve the Coal Shortage in Eastern Canada Astern canada is mainly dependent upon United States supplies for coal. War conditions have resulted in an acute shortage of coal pro duction and distribution in the United States, which, in turn, has caused a series of fuel crises in eastern Canada. The demands for coal for local industrial and domestic uses in the United States are so heavy that exports to Canada and other countries must necessarily be carefully checked and regulated. There is, to say the least, serious doubt as to whether the coal situation in eastern Canada can be improved materially during the continuance of the war, due primarily to the labour and transportation shortages, and to the enormously increased demand for coal for war purposes. As long as such doubt exists, prudence demands that all reason able precautions be taken to mitigate the disastrous results that might follow from an acute shortage of coal supplies.
