WELSH COAL
TO UTAH ON COAST
Cardiff Product Cheaper at
San Diego, Honolulu and
San Francisco.
ONLY BROUGHT IN BUNKER
Freight Rates Expected to
Come Down and Wages
May Fall.

The possibility of Welsh coal replacing
American coal Tor bunkers at the At
lantic seaboard is not regarded seriously
by New York coal exporters or shipping
men. Some alarm was caused recently
when ship brought in Welsh coal as
ballast and offered it at SIS ton. after
ward disposing Of it slightly under that
price. American bunker coal Is selling
at s5s5.
-eo further arrivals Of coal from
abroad have been reported. and few, II
any. are expected. 1t is pointed out that
the fuel could only be brought as ballast.
as the regular freight rate on coal from
Cardiff is 22 shillings a ton, or about
S4.62 at current exchange rates. Little
more than a dollar differential over the
cost of transportation could be looked
for by the Welsh coal exporter, unless
he could see an opportunity to ship the
fuel as ballast
The invasion of foreign bunker coal
has assumed serious proportions on the
Pacific coast. Welsh coal has practically
replaced Utah coal at San Francisco and
San Diego, as well as in the Hawaiian
Islands. The fuel from Cardiff costs
$15.22 at San Diego, s13 at Honolulu
and s11 at San Francisco. The domestic
product costs s16.35 at San Diego, SIG
at Honolulu and s12.20 at San Francisco
Bunkering companies in New York.
although not in fear of direct COM
petition from abroad, are desirous of
lowering their costs and then their
prices. Under current conditions ves-
sells with large bunlkers buy more coal
in England, France or Germany than is
needed for the trip across and thus
restrict their purchases at New York to
the minimum. Freight rates are ex-
pected to come down, and labor costs
may be reduced when the mine workers
agreement expires, March Is. 1922.
Wages are regarded as at least as
important an item in costs as transpor-
tation. 1t is pointed out that Pennsyl-
vania and West Virginia coal for bunk
ering sell at exactly the same price,
whereas the differential in freight costs
is ninety cents a ton. Pennsylvania coal
is hauled to New York directly, whereas
West Virginia coal has to be transported
overland to Hampton Roads and from
there sent north by sea.
