Pleas Denied For Increase In Coal Prices
The federal bituminous coal division denied requests for temporary price increases for coal produced in all bituminous fields east of the Mississippi and in parts of Colorado. Acting head Wheeler ruled after district coal boards presented data. District 16 sought a 1 cent per ton rise, but Wheeler said higher costs do not justify relief as mine prices already exceed weighted averages and real prices in the region stay above current adjustments.
