One 81 the difficulties America labored under
ii endeavoring to build up foreign trade has
been that usually It was not able to provide
freight both ways.
Now it appears a. II America Il going TO win
from Great Britain considerable percentage Of
the coal trade Of the seas. Great Britainss az
ports normally have been 80.000O00 tons year.
Today America can deliver coal in South Amsri-
q, Spain, Africa or the Mediterranean cheaper
than the British.
Appreciating what this portends the British
government has taken radical action. It has
made thorough investigation Of the coal situ-
alton. It has discovered that while the price
Of coal has been vaulting to heights never before
reached in England production has been de-
creasine. not only in gross quantity. but in tons
per man employed. From 274000.0O0 in 1918
the yield in 1918 in Great Britain dropped to
218y 900 900. Nearly 100000 men are employ
ed in coal mining in the British Isles. In Ameri-
ca the production has been increasing enormous
" until now the gross output Ii more than three
times that of Great Britain. But that Is only
part Of the story. The American coal miner
produces three times as much coal per day -
the British miner.
The investigation OF the British government
shows that mine owners have taken advantage
Of the public in the war period Their net profits
in 1914 on q production Of 266, 900 tons was
$75, 0OO, 900. In 1918 on production Of 218.-
COCOON tons it was $195 100000.
A situation Of extraordinary gravity has de-
veloped in England in relation to coal Unless
it Is corrected, and at present this appears to
be . thing Of great difficulty, the British are
certain to labor under heavy handicap in manu-
featuring and in the world trade.
e Coal sells today in Birmingham, Manchester,
Bradford and other big industrial centers at SO
. ton wholesale. That means q long ton Of 2240
pounds The cost Of coal at the mouth Of the
mine has been climbing steadily. In 1913 it was
$2.18 . ton, in 1915, SSH; in 1917, SALT IL :
in 1913, $500. Now the miners demand . six
hour workday and an increase in wages. If they
get them it is estimated the cost Of coal at the
mine mouth will average 1924 ton.
It must be understood British coal is bitumin-
GUS. It must be understood also that one-third
Of all the coal mined in England and Wales has
beeR exported. going to Italy, Spain, Norway,
