of coal per men has come down wages have
gone up. Now thousands and thousands of miners
of foreign birth planning to leave the country
and establish themselves with their earnings in
their old homes.
Thus the labor situation is critical, and as fall
approaches transportation systems will be con-
gested with crop movements; car shortage is in
sight and bringing coal to market will be increas-
ingly difficult.
Yet in the face of the higher costs of coal pro-
ducton, and the shortage of men, the public has
held off buying, hoping lower retail prices would
prevail The facts, as outlined, show the utter
impossibility Of any drop in prices.
Our advice is to BUY NOW and take advan-
tage of present prices. If the movement of coal
into retail channels is not speeded up vigorously
there will be such rush later a. to put coal at
a premium, and leave the market largely unsat-
isfied.
These facts are set forth-not for alarmist
purposes, but that the public may understand and
by prompt action accomplish self-protection.
