WORLD LOOKING TO

R. C. Martens Says Demand
After War Will Be for 20
to 40 Million Tom.

of tha company and head of ona of tha

werM, on tha world coal situation which
will reault from tha war.
Theaa vlnwn lead, from tha American
Btnt of yiew, to ona Interestlnr and
Important eoncbaaton that Immediately
follow! mr tha war America must ba tha
chief auppller of a demand for brtween
10.008.000 and 40,(00,000 tons of coal
and that how much of hla aiport our.
neiia h will tm abla to retain depends
larfely on the wlUtnmeas and ability of
her producara and ahlppera to atudy and
meet tha eondltlona of foreign countries,
Tna total exports of bituminous coal from
tha United Stalea tn 1918 were 14,41,-
9R tons. ... . ... .
Mr. Martens further discussed the tre
menrtnsis wnota to be observe! both
among producers and consumers of coal
In this country, tna consumer, no mm,
h.vtn.. In most Instances Riven atinar.
antly no atudy to the grade of coal whirl)
would he most economical In their own
particular work, and produce rs, with no
demand for careful eroding, having been
neglectful In their preparation and los
ing much that -would be conserved In
Kngland. It was this lack of attention
which would hare to be remedied, he
said, to meet successfully a foreign mar
kar-
Atvnrrtlnr to Ixinl Tlhondda's opinion.
he said, the first demand of the world
upon the close of the war and the re
leasing of shipping, with the consequent
disappearance of excesblve freight
rates, would be for coal. This would
be true not only of belligerent but of
other countries that are now suffering
from a shortage In nearly every part of
the world. In this event the Kngllsh
coal man sees no country except the
United States In a position to meet the
demand.
"Enaland." Mr. Martens eaplalned.
"the world's chief coal exporter, with a
total of 73.000.000 tons sent out In 1913.
will be tremendously ctlppled. Her
miner have enlisted and her production
Is cut far down. When the war Is over
she cannot resume her normal place In
a moment. Thousands of her miners
have given up underground work to be
come skilled soldiers, and the narrowest
estimate of the time which will be nec
essary for then) to reaccustom them
selves to the old work and place pro
duction on a basis of full capacity Is
from four to six months.
"Meanwhile the coal mines of Franco
and Belgium haw been In the hands
of the German. The tlrst thing that
will be needed to reopen them will be
fuel for the railroads and fuel for In
dustries. In Russia the situation Is sim
ilar. The mines of l'oland have been
Wrgaly shut down and the Imports from
(Ireat Hrltaln have, been almost cut oft
except for the absolute necessities.
"Germany has been enabled to be a
factor In the world coal market throuslt
Government subsidizing of her operators.
It Is doubtful If ehe will be rich enough
after the war to continue such a cus
tom. Italy Is notoriously short, and all
neutral countries which are not self
supplying are burning wood and olt ami
every eott of fuel that won never used
before ' vc d the payment of prohibi
tive o.ean Igr rates. The situa
tion Ir tli i 'rtlt rn countries, where.
""aufj-'tu.-Ts usually lay In a four
months . in.'ily of fuel against the win
ter month. Is an example. This reserve
must aggregate nlmost 0,000,000 tons.
It has been exhausted and there can bo
no more brought In until the war Is over.
"To meet this condition the United
States coal fields must furnish the sup
ply. Tre Is a feeling abroad that
American al Is Inferior to the coal of
other coua5. That Is not so. With
the exception of the Cardiff coal, used
entirely by the Urltlah and other foreign
navies. American coal Is as capable. If
carefully graded and chosen, of ier
formlng all requirements as any other.
"American producers have n great
deal to learn. I have been surprised In
visiting this country to see alongside
of the greatest efficiency In certain
forms of management, and certainly the
most wonderful system for handling the
product In the, world, the greatest in
efficiency and waste. Thero heems to
be little particular and well Informed
demand as compared with other coun
tries, and It Is this demand which the
United Watea must meet."
