PROBE OF COAL MAY
FIX FAIR PROFIT
[Coutlnued from First Pago.]
Hon* have completely unbalanced the
market.
Mr. Dodson's letter follows:
Your Excellency:—
"From accounts in the public
press of Friday, March 14th, the
Anthracite Coal Operators' Associa
tion, comprising individual opera
ors, has learned that you have writ
ten to the Attorney General request
ing information as to the powers of
the State to inquire into the cost of
anthracite and have suggested that
any lack of legal machinery to make
inquiry and "to, protect our people
against any unreasonable profiteer
ing" can be corrected by the present
General Assembly.
"Supplementing our wire of to
day, permit us to assure you that
we will welcome any inquiry which
fairly will uncover all the facts and
the real truth, before the public.
"As you know, our existing prices
of anthracite at the mines—and
these are the only ones with which
we. as mine operators have to do—
have fallen 75 centq below the fig
ures set by order of the United
States Government. The last in
crease Ini the price of anthracite was
made under order of the United
States Fuel Administrator and was
81.05 a ton on domestic sizes, to
cover a wage increase dating from
Nov. 1, 1918.
"This increase did not meet, the
burden on the operators, nor
did the two previously granted, and
in many instances led to a loss on
considerable percentages of the out
put. a loss which the operators ac
cepted for the time as a patriotic
duty toward the Nation, then at war.
"This statement is made on the
authority of the United States
Government, through Dr. H. A. Gar
field. United States Fuel Administra
tor, who not only pointed out the
loss but who clearly indicated that
an increase in prices over those
existing February 1, was a matter
of simple Justice. In an official
statement lifting the restrictions on
anthracite February 1, Dr. Garfield
said:
Garfield Quoted
" 'For the purpose of arriving at a
fair increase in price to cover the
increase in wages recommended by
the War Labor Board last Octo
ber, an examination was made to
determine the costs of the various
anthracite producing companies. The
result of this examination showed
that the general increases in the
price of materials and labor had
raised the cost of mining anthracite
to suclt an extent that many of the
companies were not receiving a fair
return and that some producers of
necessary coal were actually sustain
ing a loss on the sale of coal at
the Government prices.
" 'Had the Fuel Administration's
active control over maximum prices'
on anthracite coal been continued,
the cost examination above referred
to shows that it would have been
necessary, on the basis of the pre
sent wage scale, to raise these maxi
mum prices possibly as much as
fifty cents a ton above those last
fixed by the Government in order
to pYevent financial embarrassment
and perhaps the closing of compan
ies producing a substantial per cent
of the necessary anthracite output."
"During the period of active
Government control, individual op
erators, whom our association rep
resents, received a fixed price on
domestic sizes 75 cents a ton above
the price allowed to the railroad
affiliated coal companies. With the
lifting of all restrictions, Feb. Ist,
this differential was naturally elim
inated and the price of coal at in
dividual mines fell 75 cents a ton
below a figure, as Dr. Garfield offi
cially said, already so low that many
individual mines had operated at
a loss.
"The suggested Increase of fifty
cents a ton on- domestic sizes will
mean that the independent opera
tors price will still be 25 cents below
the figure set by the United States
Fuel Administrator during the war
and received up to Feb. Ist, and
75 cenls below the limit suggested
by Dr. Garfield in his announcement
as quoted above.
Production Costs
"Cost of production must be the
.controlling factor in the price of coal
at the mine. We are prepared to
show cost, which are no secret but
which are on record, for public
inspection, with the Federal Trade
Commission and the United States
Fuel Administration. There are
three main elements— cost of labor,
cost of materials, and royalties. Of
these labor is 75 per cent. At the
present prices the tonnage of mem
bers of this association, on, full pro
duction, must bear a loss of 40 cents
a ton. The proposed increase of
ten cents a month on domestic
sizes will only amount to 26 cents a
ton above to-day's prices, leaving
a net loss of 14 cents a ton, which
COLORED VETERANS GUESTS OF
TELEGRAPH; BAND MAKES BIG HIT
"Jim" Europe's Warrior Musicians Play at the Orpheunt to
Standing Room Only
More than 200 members of the
I colored overseas forces recently re
turned to Harrisburg and Steelton,
I were Quests of the Harrisburg Tele
| graph at the concert yesterday aft
ernoon of "Jim" Europe's "Hell
Fighters" band at the Orpheum the
ater.
Did they enjoy it?
They sure did, just as did every
body else who heard the band play
its two programs here yesterday.
The colored veterans occupied seats
together in the theater and gave
their comrades from "over there" an
uproarous welcome. And well they
deserved it. The house last night was
filled to overflowing, galleries, boxes
and main body of the theater, every
seat was filled and many turned
away. The band will make a hit
where ever it gees. Lieut. James
Reese Europe, the famous leader,
gave the band people their money's
worth and more. There was a flood
of good music, a gorgeous racket of
syncopation and jazzing, extraordi
narily pleasing violin and trombone
solos and many other features that
bands seldom offer; but there was
more than that. The audience en
joyed a spice of old time minstrelsy,
a whiff of warm, gay fun from the
jold South echoes of camp meetings
must be taken care of. together
with provision for some earnings,
either by additional increase in price
or by decrease in cost.
"We wish to call attention to the
fact often overlooked but neverthe
less obvious, that mine prices and
the prices charged the householder
should not be confused. As an il
lustration, a ton of pea coal on board
cars at mines to-day sells at $4.80,
which is all the operator gets out
of the $9.05 paid by the house
holder, at Philadelphia. The aver
age freight rate to Philadelphia,
fixed by the United States Govern
ment and paid into the United States
Treasury, is $1.75, making the cost
per ton on board cars in Philadel
phia $6.55. To this Is added the
margin for the retailer, which fig
ure was determined by Federal au
thority, making the whole cost to
the consumer $9.05, of which $4.25
or 47 per cent, constitutes distribu
tion charges with which the operator
has jiothing to do. The illustration
holds good as to other sizes.
Tells of Investigation
"We would further ask that your
attention* be directed to the detailed
report of the cost Investigation re
ferred to by Dr. Garfield. This in
quiry was made by three engineers
of the United States Fuel Adminis
tration and the results are of rec
ord. A paper embodying conclu
sions of this cost report was read
before the February 1919 meeting i
of the American Institute of Mining I
Engineers in New York City by Mr. |
R. V. Norris, one of the engineers,
who points out that the selling prices |
of anthracite at the mines has in
creased but 30.5 per cent, over the
pre-war price, while the cost of pro
duction has gone up 52 per cent., the
difference having been absorbed by
tlie operators, with the unhappy re
sults mentioned by Dr. Garfield.
"We desire to refer to a passage
in the printed accounts of your let
ter to the Attorney General, ques
tioning the economic justice of in
creasing prices in view of the mild
winter and the brpken time now
being worked by the mines. We
have endeavored to make it clear
that the sound basis for the selling
price of anthracite is the cost of
production, in which weather is not
the controlling factor.
"Work on broken time results In
a greatly increased cost. The actual
direct charges per ton of output re
main unchanged, while the propor
tionate charge per ton for fixed ex
penses and continuous work, such as
pumping, increases as production
decreases.
"Anthracite mining is one of the
oldest and most important industries
of the State. It normally employs
about 175,000 persons, of whom
members of this association employ
about 40,000, representing a popula
tion of approximately 1,000,000 im
mediately dependent upon mining
and another 1,000,000 indirectly de
pendent.
"That the mines may be worked
efficiently and that labor may be
continuously employed at fair wages
it is'essential that both the inflow
of orders and the outflow of coal
should be distributed as evenly as
possible over the whole year and
not be concentrated in the few
months of winter. The few price
announcements recently made have
had an appreciable effect in stabiliz
ing market conditions and stimulat
ing the demand for coal.
"Your announcement of Friday
morning has done much again to
upset our industry and will react
to the detriment of mine workers
wishing for steady employment. We
therefore urgently . request that
whatever inquiry you conduct, it will
be made at once, and that the full
and complete facts be brought out
once for all.
"We believe this is a just request,
as our Industry is one of the great
est in Pennsylvania and it is the
duty of the authorities of this Com
monwealth to see that justice and
fair treatment be accorded to It."
Sproul's Attitude
The Governor's reply follows:
"Your very instructive letter of
the 15th instant is at hand, and
the information you give and also
your expression of a desire to co
operate in an inquiry as to the cost
of anthracite coal are appreciated.
"Since we have taken up the gen
eral question of the cost of anthra
cite coal, so many collateral ques
tions. involving the same general
subject, have been brought up, that
it seems that a very thorough and
far-reaching inquiry by the State
would be in order. Of course, we
are vitally interested in Pennsylvania
in all of the questions affecting the
anthracite industry; it is pcrculiarly
a Pennsylvania Institution, and its
problems are our problems.
"We are interested that the wages
paid the miners shall be maintained
at a standard commensurate with
the skill and the perils related to the
work; we are interested In the pro
tection of the market for anthracite
against the increasing uses of other
fuels; and we are interested in the
progress and prosperity of the In
dustry as represented by the capital
and enterprise devoted to it.
"Other questions of importance to
us here in Pennsylvania are those re
lating to surface support, and the
danger which threatens some of our
communities; the proper inspection
of coal to prevent its adulteration
with slate and other impurities; and
the problems of State and local tax-
I ation of coal as mined and coal in
the ground. The complaints against
the impurities in coal have become
more and more numerous, and sug
gestions have come from other states
and from Federal authorities that
some action should be taken by this
State to correct what is represented
as an Imposition upon the consum
ers. Possibly this has been due to
the forced mining of the past ten
L years, more than to any intent to
and of the traditional darkey life
that seems utmost to have disap
peared.
In intervals between Lieut. Eu
rope's direction of this perfectly
welded band, quartets and octetes
sang with utter enjoyment the fan
tastic negro ditties that are so fa
miliar to negro camp meetings in
the South and are so little known
in the North —tone pictures of the
gayety with which the colored broth
er takes his religion.
Probably those songs about "Lit
tle David" and "Old Uncle Noah
Who Built do Ark" were the most
pleasing features of the entertain
ment.
At the outset, uLder Europe's firm
hand, thd band rendered the French
national efule march "Sambre et
Meuse," followed it with the tem
pestuously applauded " "Plantation
Echoes," passed to suites of the
Western world and then launched
into a medley of jazz tunes.
AH the old favorites were played
and played with unfamiliar charm—
"Suwaneo River," "My Old Kentucky
Home," and "Dixie" among them.
Europe closed his program with a
series of songs and a burst of jazz
music that sent the audience away
in high good humor.
defraud, but It is, rfevertheless, a
matter requiring attention.
"The whole matter is so important
and covers so much ground, that it
would seem that probably the most
effective way to reach a solution
would be to provide for the appoint
ment of a commission, clothed with
all of the powers that the State,
through its Legislature, may give,
aided by expert advisors and under
the most competent legal direction,
to thoroughly look into all of the
factors involved, and to make a com
plete report.
"This entire subject is being care
fully considered before a final judg
ment is given as to the best course
to pursue. Meanwhile, our immedi
ate interest is that if possible the
people may be spared an increase in
the cost of their necessary fuel, at a
time when every agency of the State
and National Government, and every
effort of far-seeing people, are being
given toward a reduction of living
costs and a stabilizing of social con
ditions in the country. If a way
could be found to prevent, or even
to defer, the proposed increase in
coal prices until such an investiga
tion has been made as will clearly
show to the people that such an
increase is justified, if it can be
justified, a great deal will have been
accomplished along lines which are
essentially patriotic, and for the pub
lic welfare."
