ment In the coal situation with the
least possible government interfer-
ence with the natural flow OF the
coal business. and with the least
possible interference with, the laws
Of supply and demand. This-is ex.
actly what the operators for years
have asked for. In my several
years OF work on coal, l have new.
er seen the situation more intelli.
gently handled than It Is now being
handled by Mr. spens. As you ap.
preciate, the coal industry is a vast,
intricate machine and the least dis.
turbahce to any of its delicate parts
ts felt throughout the industry. In
times past, government action has
frequently done, more harm than
good, and the government should
be very careful indeed before II
makes any change in the present
methods employed in the Industry
