REDUCTIONS IN RATES ON COAL ARE URGED Washington, Jan. 19.?Should the Interstate Commerce Commission de cide as a result of its present in quiry that rate schedules may prop erly be lowered, the lower" rates should be applied first to coal, the commission was told today by J. D. A. Morrow, vice president of the National Coal Association, who said he spoke for 2,000 mine operators producing approximately sixty per cent of the country's bituminous coal The average freight paid on a ton of coal at the present tim? between the mines and points of consumption amounted to $2.27 while the price of the coal at the mine was $2.13, said Mr. Morrow. He estimated that coal rates had advanced from 75 to 200 per cent apcording to locality since 1914. Railroads would be justified, Mr. Morrow asserted, in making a reduc tion of 75 cents a ton on the average haul by reason of the saving in their operating costs which had already been attained by reductions in the price of coal during the past year ad ded to the further savings they would make from the lower freight charge. Quoting from reports to his asso ciation from members, Mr. Morrow said that a large part of the produc tion of coal during the seven months from April 1 to October 31, 1921, had shown an average loss of two cents a ton for the producers with conditions prevailing during Nov ember and December which- would make tne loss even greater. "The fact must be recognized" he declared in concluding, "that high freights are the chief element today in the-delivered cost of bituminous coal."
