Chairman Replies On Coal Sale Contract At Hospital
The chairman of the Democratic Executive group addressed John J. Woolley in Jerseyville. He explained a state hospital coal order from Rardin Brothers Co to the mine at 1.70 per ton fob, with cost increases limited by a clause, and that the agent saved state funds by applying the order to all state institutions. The arrangement, tied to federal codes, involved run of mine coal and potential price reductions if contracts permit. The plan, debated among hospital authorities and county operators, aimed to cover delivery and service weights amid partisan disagreement.
