assumed the responsibility Of fixing a
reasonable price on spot coal during
the continuance of the present coal
strike.
Opening the conference here Of
union and or4,nion operators in the
producing fels5, Mr.. Hovyer declared
that any agreement between the oper.
ators looking toward the fixing OF the
prce Of coal even thought in the inter-
est of the public would be illegal. and
therefore he asked the individual oper-
ators to agree with him upon a reason
able price for coal in their respective
districts.
Mr.. Hoover told the several hundred
operators that the conference had
been called at the reQuess of President
Harding to consult as to what means
might properly be taken to restrain
runaway coal prices due to the strike.
He explained that the conference was
not concerned with wages Tor other
questions, but solely to the question of
price and distribution of coal.
Speaking of present conditions he
said production was about five million
tons a week and consumption between
eight million and eight million five
hundred thousand, necessitating with
drawals from stock amounting to be-
tween three million and three million
five hundred thousand tons week.
Production will increase slightly as
time goes on, he added.
