Anthra- cite coal shows very little change, while the quantity supplied to vessels engaged in foreign trade shows a slight gain. the quantity in 1920 being s,362.- 900 tons against 7,342, 900 in 1919. and 100000 in 1913. The big increase iu quantity occurred in bituminous coal sent to foreign countries which was. stated in exact terms, 34.390.254 tons in 1920 against IT ,e6s,5 ,514 in 1919. and 17,9S6,757 in 1913.
 The increase in export prices espe- cially of bituminous coal. has been A very important factor in the large lp- crease in total value, for the average export price of the bituminous coal ] sent to foreign countries was in 1920, i 3S.5O per ton against S46s per ton in 1919, and s2.53 in 1913. The average price of the coal supplied to foreign vessels for bunker purposes in lsz0 was $S.sr per ton against s6.57 in lgIs. anthracite exports of 1920 averaged s9.44 per ton against ss.25 per ton In | 1913, and $5.24 per ton in 1913. Even these figures of increase fin our oySn export prices of coal are far less than those of Great Britain, whose coal ex- ports in the calendar year 1920 aver aged $ls.45 per ton against s3.36 per ton in 1913.
 These big increases in quantity ex- l ported in 1920 as compared with 1918 occurred especially in the shipment to Europe and South America. To France the exports of 1920 were 3.646 900 tons, valued at ss2. 2.415.000 against less than $l.O0O,O0O worth in 1918. and s3.OO0 .O0c worth in 1919.
