Ridgway said the Communist

Ridgway, supreme u. N. COM

The Army said Dodd has been

food while the North Korean POWs
ate their usual bowls or rice-both

Instead, Colson demanded the
Reds release Dodd forthwith. The
North Koreans ignored the de-

goldman Can
Charge More
For Coal Now
By SAM DAWSON

NEW YORK R-The goldman
has the go-signal now to charge
more for eoal-if he can get it.
And the high cost of living may
have found another willing helper
in its determination to stay high.
There's some doubt, especially
among his competitors, that the
coal operator can pass along in
higher prices all of the increased
costs implied by President Tru-
mans approval Wednesday night
of full coal wage boost of $50
a day.
Because of the growing compe-
tition in the heating and power
fields from fuel oil, diesel oil and
natural gas, industry sources doubt
if many soft coal operators can
make a price hike of any size
stick.
Hard coal prices, however, are
close to price ceilings now, and
may go higher because of the pres.
ident's overruling of the Wage Sta
bilization Board.
Steel mill costs are sure to 90 I'D.
Steel companies themselves mine
much Of the coal they use in large
quantities in making steel. And
their mining costs will mount.
While the approval of the full
wage boost was widely expected by
the business community, there's
some doubt among industry lead
ers whether the Presidents deci-
sion removes the last of the big
over wage and price hikes or may
be just the signal of another round
of them.
The maritime union wage boosts
are still before the Wage Stabiliza-
ton Board for approval or pairing.
And the board has ALREADY cut
back pay hikes negotiated by other
unions. These might now feel their
cases should be reopened.
The President insists that his
decision does not mean a new
wage control policy. And Defense
Mobilizer Fowler says the whole
control policy for wages, prices
and materials Is to be maintained
until the new administration takes
over next month.
Some industry leaders, however,
wonder If the coal case. may not
turn out to be the swan song for a
control system that has been weak
ening steadily for some time.
The coal mining industry ap.
parently feels that Ii can--or must
handle the increased costs Of the
higher pay scales, since il had
agreed to them and asked the wage
board to approve them.
Users of coal, with industrial
production high and demand Of
their products strong, seem willing
to pay higher coal prices rather
than face a coal shutdown.
| As labor costs have mounted In
recent years, the coal operators
have turned increasingly TO mech
1 anization Of mines. A miner, using
these modern devices. can turn out
considerable more coal today than
he could only q few years ago.
This has helped the Goa. opera
tors keep prices al . competitive
level with other fuels.
Costs Of producing and trans
porting the competing fuels have
gone up. too. The price Of fuel oil
and heavy oil used by industry has
been held down. In fact. by the
price Of coal. Each acts as . brake
I on the other. since many factories
are equipped TO shift quickly from
one fuel 10 the other IL prices get
/ out OF line.
The high cost Of living seems
