them that the report was the basis
upon which the wage schedule agree
ments shall be made
April LIST is the date upon which
these agreements normally would be-
come effective and by removing gov

the way for increased coal prices to
absorb the average tWenty-seyen per-
cent increase recommended by the
majority report.
The executive order removes vlrtu-
ally all government control OF coal
The President said there was no pro
vision of law for fixing new coal pl1-
ces for peace time purposes and that
unless and until some grave emer-
gency shall arise. which in my judg-
ment has relation to the emergency
purposes of the Lever act, | would not
feel justified in fixing coal prices with
reference to the future conditions OF
production"
The president wrote the operators
and miners that it was essential to
the public welfare that agreements be
concluded at the earliest date practl-
cable. so all uncertainty as to fuel sup
ply will be ended and so that consul
mers NAV be able to take contracts
for their coal supply.
He said he assumed that neither
party would raise any questions and
that he was sure no question could
properly be raised as to the binding
character of the award by the MAJOR
