The Bituminous Coal commission ruled that contracts signed before April 26 remain in full force until minimum prices are established.

For sales after April 26, no contract may provide for more than 300 days delivery from the date, unless options for extra tonnage over 30 day periods exist. Exceptions apply to pre June 16 1933 contracts under certain conditions.
