PROFITEERING IN COAL

Government control of mining and
distribution of coal was recommend
ed to Congress by Nelson P. Gas
kill, chairman of the Federal Trade
Commission, as the most effective
way to prevent profteering in the
industry. Appearing before the
House labor committee, Mr.. Gaskill
urged the passage of legislation UNI
der which the Government would be
third party to forced agreement be-
tween coal operators and miners re-
gulating the production of coal. The
idea would be to stop over-produc-
ton. Such an agreement, unless
the Government were party, would
De violation of anti-trust laws.
Mr.. Gaskill said that "bogus in
dependent operators" and faxed"
sales are mostly responsible for ex-
,orbitant prices of coal to the con-
sumner. The Federal Trade Com
mission, he said, knows of numer-
JUS instances where single car
