I'm view Of the action Of the

August 20"
Reports tonight that operators in
some districts were complaining that
the mines cannot be operated at the
prices fixed by the president caused
officials little concern. 1t was pointed
out that the clause in the food control
bill giving the executive the power to
fix prices carries a provision authoriz-
Ing the government u take over and
operate mines which fail to adhere to
the prices named or which declines
TO abide by regulations the president
may issue demanding full production.
Some small mines. 1t is admitted. may
be forced to close down. but officials
feel this will represent little hardship.
and that II will not reduce production.
since miners and cars released will go
10 other mines which can produce coal
at a profit at the prices fixed.
