Washington, Oct ga general
investigation into retail and whole
sale prices of coal throughout the
country appeared probable tonight.
In minor way, investigation OF
prices consumers assert they have
been compelled to pay already has
been started by the department Of
justice in sections of the east and
middle west, both as to anthracite and
bituminous coal.
Instructions have been sent to
United States attorneys conducting
these local Investigations to summon
witnesses. determine the truth of the
charges. and, where justified, to bring
prompt proceedings under the crimi-
nal law against those believed to be
guilty.
Flood of Complaints.
These investigation were based
upon complaints that the margin of
profit allowed dealers by the govern
ment had been exceeded. Measured
by the great volume of complaints
which have been received by the fuel
administration, the instances under
investigation by the department of
Justice are comparatively inconse-
quen.ial.
Disposition Of complaints is one Of
the subjects which now is pressing the
fuel administration, it is understood,
and action concerning them probably
win he taken within IA few days. IN
dications are that the bulk of the
complaints Upon which criminal pro-
ceedings might be brought--if truth
of the charges can be established
will be turned over to the department
of justice with the suggestion that
Violators of the law be prosecuted
promptly.
Heavy penalties are provided for
violation of the law under which the
president fixed the price to be charg-
ed for coal and the margins allowed
jobbers and dealers
Law Is Explicit.
Whoever" reads the law, shall,
with knowledge that the prices of any
such commodity have been fixed as
herein provided, ask demand or re-
ceive higher price, or whoever shall.
have been prescribed as herein pro-
vded, violate or refuse to conform to
any of the same. shall. upon convic..
tion, be punished by fine Of not more
than $4,000 or by Imprisonment fof
not more than two years, or both.
Each Independent transaction shall
constitute separate offense"
Coupled with the complaints charg.
ing that higher prices than those au-
thorized have been demanded and OBJ.
tanned, are numerous protests from
persons and firms alleging that they
have been unable to puy coal at any
price. With these, it is thought the
government has little power to deal,
except in cases where the coal opera
tors themselves refused to sell coal
which had not been contracted for
previously.
Most of the latter complaints, II Is
understood come from purchasers for
household consumption.
