Newspapers said the Shanghai Nanking line has only a 10-day supply of coal. Another problem Is shipping, without which Shanghai can not live. Foreign and Chinese shipping lines were trying to contact the proper Communist authorities to negotiate resumption of service. Foreign air line officials here were doing the same thing. A spokesman for American Pre sident Lines said it would like to bring ships in as soon as pos sible.

The Shanghai Power Company has fuel oil for only 16 days. For the past several months its oil supplies have been paid for with ECA foreign exchange.
