Fair-Price Arbiter Says Opera
tors Anticipated Anthracite
Tax In Rates
DEALERS ARE WARNED
Anthrnclte operators will net increase
the cost of coal at the mines because of
the State tax. accerdins te the Fair
I'ractices Committee of the State Fuel
Commiss en.
Lnst month, nfter the United Slates
Supreme Court ruled thnt the Pennsyl
vanla anthracite tax law. which com
pels the anthracite operator te pay te
the State a tax of 1 per cent of the
price he charges the retail dealer for
a ten of cenl nt the mines, was valid,
reports emnnntlng from mnny sections
In the hnrd coal regions said the opera
tors were preparing te boost the price
from llftcen te fifty cents a ten, te
cover the tax and the cost of "extra
clerical force needed te compute and
handle the tax."
Immediately many retail dealers in
Philadelphia nnd ether cities njitici
patcd the operators and boosted their
price from 50 cents te ?1 n ten.
It was mnde plnln yesterday by Kdgnr
C. Felten. chairman of the Fair Prac
tices Committee, that any increase in
price by any of the anthrnclte oper
ators, who In the fall appeared before
his committee wnn reipiesis ter in
creases exer the prices ehtnlncd In 1021,
will be regarded as u flagrant disregard
of the rulings of the committee. He
indicated the guilty operators will be
dealt with accordingly.
"When these operators appeared tic
fore this cemmltiee In the full with a
request for hlnlier prices," said Mr.
I.'i.ttn,, i.wtiiril.ti' "ibev hrmifrlif wiMi
them ce'st figures te substantiate their
iiemnniis, ami te tnese cesi ngures wns
added from txvelve te fifteen cents n ten
in expectation that the Supreme Court
would upheld the anthracite laxv.
That tax was provided for in the
Increases given the operators following
their conference with this committee,
nnd any attempt te collect the tax
txvlce by nsnln rnislng the price of coal
at the mines will receive the full at
tentien of the Fair Practices Committee
nnd the Fuel Commission."
