POTENTIAL OF COAL TO MEET THE ENERGY CRISIS

The author emphasizes that, although the energy crisis has demonstrated the need for greatly increased coal production, the coal industry's efforts to meet new demand challenges must be supported by a national commitment to coal development, enforced by favorable government energy policies. For a climate of growth, the industry requires not only internal strengthening-labor stability, financial incentives and long-term market assurances-but also relief from restrictive environmental legislation effecting both the production and utilization of vitally needed coal.
