See No Need For Boost In Coal Prices
New York March 7 Prices of coal at mines for April 1 will not necessarily rise if a strike occurs unless buyers push up bids. Jon Edgerton, president of the National Association of Manufacturers, says output from independent and nonunion mines covers 80 to 85 percent of the nation s bituminous needs. By April 1 about 89 million tons would be on hand and perhaps 100 million tons in storage, about 200 million tons above normal, enough for eight to ten weeks of demand.
