COAL TRADE CONTROL
SAFEGUARDS PROMISED
CONSUMERS IN BRITAIN
(British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, Feb. 8.
Safeguards for consumers under the established coal selling schemes were promised in the House of Commons by the President of the Board of Trade, Mr. Oliver Stanley.
He declined to amend the Coal Bill to give effect to these safeguards, and said that something not in a statutory form would be most effective. The central council administering the selling schemes had, accordingly, given certain guarantees, which would be binding on each colliery, dealing, first, with supplies and service; secondly, with price and complaints, and thirdly, with general questions, including price.
