IMMENSE PROFITS
FOR COAL OWNERS
Bituminous Operators Made Half
Billion During War.
EACH FAMILY PAID OUT SIS
Statement Made by W. Jett Lauck,
Consulting Economist Of Railroad
Brotherhoods, to Labor
Board

Washington, May 20.-Btuminous
coal owners took $5OOO0O,OOO in war
time profits, w. Jet Lauck, consulting
economist Of the railroad brotherhoOds,
declared in a supplementary survey Of
the bituminous coal industry, present
ed to the labor board.
Translated into individual terrss,
Lauck declared, THIS "go1ging" means
that each family in the United States
paid approximately S25 thus accoun-
ing for IAN important factor in the
high cost of living" Lauck supported
his charges with data based on income
tax returns of coal corporations, cost
reports of the federal trade commits
sion, and financial statements of the
companies themselves.
with an average annual production
for the three Years 1916. 1917 amt 1918
Of nearly 6OO,OOOUOO tons and au nv
erage excess profit per ton for the
three years of more than - cents it
is apparent that coal operators gouged
the consumers for an aggregate of half
a billion dollars" Lauck said.
People Paid for Everything
"Thc people of this country paid
all the war taxes of the coal Operators,
paid their contributions to the Red
Cross and other wartime welfare or
ganizations; paid huge sums for depe-
tion and on top of that paid them half
billion or more in net profits than
they were capable of earning in a sim
ilar period during normal times" he
charged
Lauck fatty denied that increased
labor costs are in any serious degree
responsible for the greatly increased
prices of coal. He also denied that
the high prices were justified by in
creased production asserting that while
production increased p per cent over
the three pre-war years profits rose
over 100 per cent. Less than one
fourth of the increase In the price of
coal was taken by labor, he said. The
claim that labor is responsible, Lauck
said, lis utterly false"
Wage Increase Mere Excuse.
"The recent wage increase of 81 per
cent granted miners adds something
less than 40 cents to the cost of pro-
ducing ton of coal" Lauck said
Since April 1, when these new rates
became effective, prices of coal have
advanced from 70 cents to 81 ton.
In other words the coal companies and
middlemen will not only reimburse
themselves for the higher wages paid
but are using this as an excuse to
make still greater profits"
