WILL SEE NECESSITY Of Rigid Fuel Order Millions of Workmen Idle When Plants Shot Down For 5 Days. (By Associated Press.) Washington, . Jan. 18 It is stated officially today that Presi dent Wilson is not-even consider ing interfering with the1 fuel' re striction order and feels the country will be satisfied with its necessity. Most of Administrator Gar field's staff was busy today issu issuing - ing issuing special rulings in response to a flood of eastern querries asking exactly what form of industries are included in the order. Ap parently the whole country is much at sea as to just what the order means. Meanwhile a supplementary exemption list is being prepared by the Fuel Administration but it appeared doubtful if it will be made public owing to fears that the Fuel Administration will be swamped with requests from other industries. Some of the industries notified of their exemptions were stee mills, producing ship plates woolen mills turning- out sroods tor the army and navy, and cer tain domestic utilities, including ice piants wnicn, nowever, should consolidate, wherever possible and operate only one plant and distribute the output through the otners.
