MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
NEEDED TO CARRY ON
ANTHRACITE INDUSTRY

Until the cost of an article hits an
individuals pocket, the price is sell
dom thought of beforehand. The con-
suming public should realize that with
each succeeding year, the cost of OPP
Grating the anthracite mines grow
apace. Some people think that every
ton of coal coming out of the mine is
clear profit for the operator. The
consumer never seems to think there
is a cent of cost attached to the bust
ness which is the most vital industry
next to the winning of-the-war job.
In the United States there are over
1000 miles of tunnels in the anthra-
cite coal mines. OF this number 1000
are in the Schyulkill region which
ships about % per cent. of the total
anthracitep reduction. In the Lehigh
and Wyoming regions, which fur
nishes the other ~ per cent. of out
put, there are over 5000 miles of tun-
nels. These underground roads are a
great expense.
All the coal that can be recovered
from them is constantly. increasing
owing to the intensive methods need
ed to create output and this, too, adds
to the cost of production. Water that
runs into these underground passa ges
must be steadily pumped out to pro-
tect adjacent workings and air must
be forced in to prevent the formation
of dangerous gases. This means adj
ditional expense.
To protect the surface and make
possible the recovery of a little more
coal, big money is expended to pump
refuse back into the workings, some
| times, the work being done by n.y.
draulic process. This adds to the
mine working cost. A further prob
lem of big expense is the timbering OF
the mines. Timber has long been
stripped from the Pennsylvania hills
and adjacent region and yellow pine
must be brought up from the South tc
supply this need, which costs the op-
orators over $5,O00,0O0 annually.
Concrete is taking the place OF
wood for pillars, whenever possible
