OPERATORS UNWILLING"
TO ACCEPT HIGH PRICES
Scale Chairman for Soft Coal Men
Demands More Work and Less
Talk on Part of Employees.

NEW YORK. April 3.-Responsible
bituminous coal operators will condemn
any unwarrantable price and any profit
eering policies" Thomas T. Brewster
chairman of the scale committee of the
bituminous coal operators, declared in
statement issued here.
.Insinuations that the coal operators
are going to gouge the public because
of the 81 per cent advance in wages, as
put out by the United Mine Workers
spokesmen, in the guse of protests in
the public interest, are sheer nonsense,
said Mr.. Brewster.
During the coal miners entirely un
warranted and unlawful cessation from
work all stocks of coal were depleted
and a shortage exists throughout the
country The replanishing of stocks has
been retarded by a serious coal shortage.
Consequently, large consumers of soft
coal are competing for the available sup
ply. which has resulted in the offer of
higher prices than the operators are
willing TO accept.
''All responsible operators will con-
denim any unwarrantable price or any
profiteering policies.
''The bituminous coal commission nav
ing awarded the miners a wage scale
giving them very high earning power.
the public now has the right to demand
more work, with advanced coal produc-
ton and less talk"

steel workers and coal miners in

Duquesne and other steel and mining
communities. The majority of such
properties are small houses.
In this connection 1t was stated that
many large corporations are assisting
their employees to obtain homes in the

cost of building. and proVidlne To-. Lot
the erection of a terminal only. put

SPRING building
PROGRAM DELAYED
Cost of Materials, Labor
Conditions and Weather
Are Responsible.

A general tendency toward contin-
ued higher material prices and in
creasing construction cost is noted
with regard to the building situation,
according to the Straus Company's re-
view of building conditions through
out the country Constantly advanc-
ing prices for materials. increasing
car shortage. unsettled labor condi-
tions and unfavorable weather are
among the factors combining TO re-
strict or delay an adequate program
of spring construction work. accord
ing to the review. which says:
The demand for new structures OF
all kinds is growing more acute In all
parts Of the country. There were
large gains in construction work re-
ported from all leading cities Tor
March as compared with February,
but the exact figures are not yet COM
pleted.
Many Adverse Factors.
However, there have been many
adverse factors in evidence The Sc
we're winter weather which existed in
many sections of the United States
during February and the first half OF
March has been an important factor
retarding new construction. While
there is a shortage Of all building ma
terials due primarily to labor condi-
tions, the unreasonable weather re-
stricted the output of such building
commodities as sand. gravel. brick and
tile, and many large plants were
closed down. There also Is an acute
shortage in structural steel. and many
large building projects are being held
up because of the Strfngency In these
basic materials.
Another adverse feature IS the car
shortage, which has grown so acute
that one of the large steel companies
recently had in its yards from 10000
TO 160. 900 tons of finished steel which
could not be delivered to the pur-
available. The car shortage has
proved an adverse factor in the coal
situation, and 1t Is reported that IN
recent weeks the car supply at the
coal mines has seldom been above 50
per cent Of normal. The production
Of coke also has fallen on for ike
cause.
Lack Of Production.
There Is lack of production indi.
is q determination on the part OF all
interests connected with the build
ing industry to increase the actual
amount Of work accomplished.
Lack Of stabilization. unsettled
prices, shortage OF materials and in
adequate housing IaCilties' ooeh ioi
business and personal uses, Will con-
tinue until we settle down to period
Of steady production and constructive
thrift in all lines Of endeavor. Hard
work and a serious determination to
relieve the present great building
deficit must prove the underlying
cause of stable conditions
Until there is a general adoption
of these principles Of applied thrift
We may expect to find prices tending
steadily toward higher levels. with a
shortage of building supplies and a
growing inadequacy Of housing con-
ditions everywhere"

breaks IN prices took place in the
wheat market today, and the finish

Corn and oats weakened but the
setbacks in these grains did not
exceed 5 cents. In provisions, the
nnlsh was at substantial gains.
