SOFT COAL
The department OF research and
education of the Federal Council of
Churches has sent out a comprc-
hcnsivc report OF the soft coal indus
Try. Nothing of impressive newness
was brought TO light, but il is worth |
while at this time to bear in mind |
a condition existing in that industry |
which has a serious effect upon its |
prosperity.
The soft coal industry is cnorm-
ously overdcvelopcd, it has been |
again emphasized; fully zoos |
more miners are employed in it than |
the needs of the country would de- |
mand. An astonishing number Of
mines lose money during slack sea-
sons and We're better eliminated al
together We're it not for the fact
that their owners can garner enough
profits during periodical good
season" to tide them over the bad
time.
Nothing in the industry is more
remarkable than the varying costs
Of mining coal as between various
mines. The use of certain types of
machinery. it is reported, greatly
/ reduces the cost of mining; yet in
an industry where so many mines
are run at a loss most of the time
such mechanical aids are not greatly
in demand. The cost Of labor under
such a condition, it is emphasized
I is not the deciding factor in the
cost of mining, but equipment is an
! important element. The same situa-
{ ton was unearthcd in England dur
ing the recent coal strike, by the
way.
Operators estimate that 70 per
cent of the soft coal mined comes
, from uonunion mines; the church
report does not quote this estimate
as fact but indicates that a com
parativcly small part of the coal
mined comes from the field included
in the Jacksonville agreement -
which has Just expired, and a re-
ncwal of which. or a similar agree
mcnt, is the basis of the present
strike.
The church report touches upon
one point that is quite new and pos
sosses much possibility for discus
sion. If the entire soft coal field
were unionizcd, it Is said. the indus
try would automatically enlarge it.
