Pittsburgh January 25 A Great Lakes season order reduces bituminous coal shipments from this area to 80 percent of 1944 Appalachian supplies for eastern households, aiming to divert coal from other fields. The move could boost local stocks if 1944 production is sustained, with about 10 percent of national coal ending up on the lakes last year.
