Wood Dealers Behind
In Filling Orders
A number of complaints have reached
the office of Fuel Administrator Holmes
from people who have been unable to
Secure prompt delivery of ordered fuel.
In some cases, householders complain
that wood dealers refuse to accept their
rdera.
Investigation of complaints by offi
cials of the fuel administrator's office
Indicates that many dealers ars far
behind In their orders due to the early
rush for winter's fuel.
For this reason, some dealers have
declined to accept orders for delivery
Within a stipulated date. In thts con
nection, the administrator advises pa-
,tlenc for the reason that dealers are
making deliveries as rapidly as possible.
