Proposals for Coal Price Control Under New Bill
Provisions of a food control bill would give the President power to fix coal prices from mine to consumer and authorize requisition of all coal for public sale. The trade commission report argues current prices yield excessive profits and uneven distribution across regions. The plan divides the nation into 7 to 12 districts with district price ceilings based on average production cost plus a set profit. District output would be controlled so every operator earns the same profit percentage regardless of cost.
