Ford Will Try
to Solve Coal
Problem of II. S.
Reeerve Supply of 500,000,
000 Ton# in Virgin Land
Manufacturer Bought
in Kentucky.
By Associated rrese.
Detroit, Mich., March S3.—Official
lotiflrmafinn today at the Dearborn
Offices of Henry Ford that the auto-1
mobile manufacturer had purchased
120,000 acres of undeveloped coat land i
In Kentucky was coupled with the j
Statement that Mr. Ford intended lo |
solve the country’s eoal problems “by i
using every piece of coal twice.”
By purchase of the property, it was
announced, Mr. Ford comes into pos
session of a vast tract of virgin coal
Mods with a reserve coal supply of
200,000.000 tons. This property, added 1
to other coal lands previously pur- I
chased, brings the total number of >
acres of such laud owned by the manu
facturer to 165,000.
From these holdings Mr. Ford hopes
that within a year will come sufficient
coal to supply all his factories in
every part of the country, all the
factories and mills manufacturing
various products for hie own concerns,
Ss many of the industries in this dis
trict as care to buy coal from him,
and have left fuel sufficient to supply
# part of the domestic demand of the
country.
Mr. Ford, it was announced, will
•*k all Industrial users of his coal to
Install furnaces that will remove only
the gas and similar substances, leav
ing a Mil unimpaired for domestic
purposes. The coal, after this process,
would be sold to heat the homes of
flundreds of thousands of workers
throughout the country. The fuel
remaining after the gas had been
taken out would be even more valu
able for home heating purposes than
it was before, It was explained.
