Organizations push
increased use of coal
United Press International
LOUISVILLE, Ky — The Na
tional Coal Association and the
United Mine Workers are putting
aside their management-labor dif
ferences to promote wider use of
coal, the nation’s most plentiful
energy resource.
The public believes more coal
should be burned but doesn’t rec
ognize coal as a long-term solu-
tuion to the nation’s energy prob
lems, NCA President Carl E. Bag-
ge said Tuesday at the opening of a
three-day coal conference.
Bagge said he and several coal
company officials had met in St.
Louis on Monday with UMW
President Sam Church and agreed
to a major publicity campaign to
promote coal as the nation’s fuel of
the future.
The massive, national cam
paign will be announced formally
next Monday, said Bagge, who
appealed to coal operators and
coal industry supply firms to con
tribute to the campaign fund.
Coal has won increasing accept
ance among Americans, Bagge
said. His trade group recently
conducted a national survey of
public attitudes on coal.
The Coal Conference and Ex
position VI sponsored by industry
trade publication Coal Age re
sumed Wednesday.
In his address, Bagge warned

that one bullet — referring to the
possibility of assassination and re
volution in the Middle East —
could disrupt America’s current
ample supplies of imported oil at
stable prices.
“I fear we re being lulled into a
false sense of security,” he said.
“We could again find ourselves
facing long lines at the gasoline
pumps,’ Bagge said, adding that
the nation isn’t any closer to solv
ing its energy problems now than
it was eight years ago during the
first Arab oil embargo.
Bagge said the answer to de
pendence on foreign oil is coal. He
noted that the United States has
the world’s largest known coal re
serves.
Gov. John Y. Brown Jr. also
addressed the conference and said
Kentucky is proud of its role as the
nation’s No. 1 coal producing
state. Brown forecast a very posi
tive future for coal but said he
didn’t think “the Reagan adminis
tration understands what coal
means to this country.”
Rep. Nick J. Rahall II, D-
W. Va., said it is important that the
United States develop a coal-
based energy policy. “Administra
tion after administration has not
given us a comprehensive energy
policy based on coal,” he said.

The parliament, or Majlis,

As a co-founder of the Islamic
party, Mousavi’s fundamentalist
and hard-line revolutionary
credentials are impeccable, and
he attacked U.S. policy in E!
