America Rapidly
Losing Britain's
Export Coal Trade

LONDON, Oct. 24.-Britains ex
port coal trade, transferred to the
United States few months age
owing TO the long strike of British
mines is rapidly slipping out of the
hands OF American traders, according
10 Board OF Trade figures.
The rapidly with which the in
ternational coal trade is revertinG
TO British hands is evidenced in the
fact that three months ago the United
States was actually exporting coal
not only TO the Scandinavian coun,
tries but to England. with distinct
leadership in the Mediterranean and
undisturbed primacy in South Amer
lean markets" said Alfred p. Dennis
commercial attache of the American
Embassy.
we, today, are practically out Of
the European trade and are rapidly
losing cur position in the MeGiterran-
can markets, where we had secured
practically half the business with
our position seriously menaced in
South America, where we occupied
logically a favored competitive posi-
ton.
THE amazing recovery Of the Brit
ish coal industry is shown in trade fig
ures for August which shows an ex-
port business of more than 100000,
tons as compared with $4,000
600 tons in August, 1920.
This striking reversal in the en-
tire situation is due TO the immense
quickening of coal production in the
United Kingdom, accompanied by fall
ing wages.
THE export coal trade is one Of the
fundamentals in Britain's economic
position in world trade and every sac
rifice is being made to win back lost
ground. Production costs have come
down with run and coal is offered
for export at figures apprcximatinP
production costs.
"On the other hand, production
costs in the United States have still
wide margin for decline.
Fine quality Cardiff coal can now
be put on shipboard at 80 shillings
equivalent OF present exchange rate
to about $3.50 per ton. Al normal
exchange the price would be $3.50.
1T remains for us 10 endeavor TO
maintain our competitive position by
bringing down our (. o. b. steamer
costs, while al the same time in
dulging the hope that the future
appreciation of sterling may tend
TO equali2e our position, not only
in South America but in the major
continental markets"

board, after hearing and investigat.
ion. granted portion OF the re-
quest, effective as of July /. 1921.
New Wages Effective
The Santa Fe put these new wages
into effect. Our train and enginemen
through their respective leaders asked
the. railroads (and the Santa Fe
among them for conference TO con.
slider restoration OF the rates estab-
lished in July, 1920, and u promise
that further reduction would not be
asked.
I'm view OF the general lowering
of wages throughout the country
and the changes that are taking
place, we did not feel that this could
be done, especially in view of the
lnsistent demand that is sweeping
the country for lower freight rates.
A strike vote was ordered and we
have been told, not by our employees
but by the heads OF the brotherhoods
that the strike vote was almost unan-
imous, and we do not know what il
was on the Santa Fe, but we feel GER
tain that il was far from unanimous,
and wcdo know that on certain roads
not more than 40 per cent voted in
favor, and on some OF these roads we
know that most OF the men will not
80 out. The Santa Fe, therefore. finds
itself confronted with a threatened
strike through the decision of the La
