ExDlains Why Coal Cost Has Increased,
 Since the War

Washington, Feb. 18.-Increases in the cost of coal to the consumer since the war have been caused by advanc- ed operating costs, due to advances in wages, strikes, intermittent car supply and augmented overhead ex- penses, T. H. Watkins, president of Pennsylvania Coal and Coke corpora ton. today told the senate coal com mittee.
 The IA per cent increase in wages, recently granted bituminous coal miners, would never have been neces- sary or demanded by the men if ade- quate transportation, facilities had been afforded the mines to allow con. sistent operation, MT. Watkins said, adding that no further wage increases to miners would be justified. MT Watkins said railroad officials esti- mated it would cost 0,000,O00 to provide necessary rolling stock to handle coal alope when the roads are turned back to private management.
