COAL PRICES
GOING HIGHER
Federal Fuel Committee Permits
Kentucky Mines ST a Ton
Increase.
JUSTIFIED BY WAGE BOOST
Advance In Price Is Authorized on the
Request and Suggestion Of Gov
ernor Morrow-Hoover Replies
to Senator Borah.

Washington. Aug. 2l,--Coal prices
are going higher, even under federal
control. The federal fuel committee
increased the Hoover fair-price scale
for all mines in Kentucky TO $3.50 per
ton at the mine The scale heretofore
has been $3.50 for eastern and S3'o
for western Kentucky mines.
The Increase was authorized on the
request and suggestion of Gov. EDWIN
Z. Morrow of Kentucky who eX'
planned that it was justified by wage
Increases Of 81 per ton to the Ken
lucky miners.
After the 1920 scale expired March
81 the Kentucky operators, both union
and nonuuion, went back TO the 1918
scale and continued TO operate on that
basis until the present month when
new contracts for the remainder of
this year restoring the 1920 scale were
entered into by both groups. The
Kentucky union miners ala not join in
the general strike of April /.
The fuel situation "has now reached
q point where even if production is re-
sumed there must be more authority
for the effective control of dtstrIhu-
tIon and possibly Of prices pending
reimbursement Of the situation" Score
