abandoned it would flood. No one
would wish to acquire it following
damage accruing while flooded.
What to do!
It was finally arranged on agree
ment between the Howard inter
ests and the Bureau of Mines to
have the latter operate the mine
on a basis of extraction of suf
ficient coal to pay the cost of up
keep pending a final disposition
of the lease.
At this juncture the Howard in
terests disposed of their rights to
a California syndicate, which, it
was announced, was prepared to
export the coal to the States.
The deal was made possible by
the decision from Washington to
‘encourage coal mine operation by
permitting the railroad manage
ment to apportion the railroad’s
eoal needs among all operating
mines.”
Thus the Premier and the Evan
Jones have split the railroad busi
ness between them on a minimum
rate established by the railroad
management.
Then the depression stepped in.
The split-check sysetm is the
inal result.
The entire question of coal min
ng under the leasing system is in
/olved in the Matanuska fields.
In the event that the operating
mines failed to accept the price
>ffered by the railroad manage
ment for supplying coal, the old
Eska mine, operated before the
Evan Jones and the Premier en
:ered the field, is available for
governmental operation.
Thus what ordinarily would be
r competitive system with private
capital permitted to fight out their
aattles in the ordinary manner
becomes involved in a situation
vhere the office of the Secretary
)f the Interior could make or mar
my enterprise operating a coal
mine in the Matamiska field.
