-- WASHINGTON — Commenting
7 on soaring coal prices, "Coal Age”
in ito current isave rays:
"With a apeed that takes away
the breath, coal prices last week
soared to levels no one ever ex-
pected to see again after the orgy
of 1330. The majority of the spot
coal reaching the market is priced
at the level suggested by Secre-
tary Hoover ta June ($3.50 a ton
at the mines) and it to a smaller
portion that to rising to the bait of
the long green held alluringly be-
fore the eyes of the operators by
the hungry buyers.
BIG SPOT INCRRASR.
"The average spot prise on Mon-
day. Joly 34. was $5.57, compared
with $3.98 a week previous."
This magarine, long an official
mouthpiece for the operators,
warns profiteering operators
against taking unfai radvantage of
the coal-buying public:
"What to the public saying
about an industry that stages a
strike to lower the wages of its
workers end st the same time ex-
torts huge profits for coal! There
to no fairness in that.
THEIR OWN ENEMTES. >
"Whether some producers like
it or not, they must be protected
from themselves, and those pro-
ducing the greater part of the cur-
rent tonnage who have and will
continue voluntarily to maintain a
fair price are entitled to protec-
tic n from those who will not."
