Contracted by Men Here; Latter Protest Action Coal operators have refused to ful

fill a contract for coal with a local

company because they can sell their

output at a greater price to French dealers than they can to domestic dealers under the price fixed by the government.

Dealers of Richmond said the government price does no good if it allows foreign countries to outbid the American dealers and prevents them

from bidding against foreign dealers. They 6ay it simply permits foreigners to have American coal for less than they would have to pay if 9mericans also could bid.
