Under the bed of the English channel off the south coast of Kent are billion of tons of high quality coal Five years ago there were ambitious plans in mine this field and bring the coal to the surface Now it is doubtful if it will ever be touched in the foreseeable future The decline in the de mand for coal and the steadily growing stodrs of coal which cannot be sold are factors which have caused

carried outby the inshore survey ship Echo and it is now nearing the stages of preparing the new charts The results are being examined by specialists on the staff of Rear Admiral Collins These examinations have re vealed that the Goodwin Sands are indeed shifting sands One of the experts Rigor Cicet said The Goodwin are rotating clockwise We have established that the southern tip move more than half mile south in little more than 10 years The Brake bank is threatening to close the channel into Rams 1500 odd visitors from other countries These included par ty of 04 who flew from Canada

attention from the ex hibitors who were an the alert for any openings whichmig ht suggest opportunities for increas ed export trade EXPORTS IMPORTANT Export trade is of the greatest importance to Britains agricul tural implementindustry in the first nine months of this year 702 per cent of the three and fourwheeled tractors built in Britain were exported and only reaper centroid on the horn

this year no0 were feet and cost £10 million It war foreseen that therewould be scramble to secure the extra 3000 miners who would be re quired to operate it Today the £100000 spent on making the surveys is being written off and officials only smile when questions are asked them regarding the new pit which was proposed five years ago instead of expansion in the Kent coalfields there is an of tidal warning that the fields biggest pitBetteshonger may be closed unless it can be made more efficient and economical And at the some time the problem facing the SouthEarl Divisional Coal Board is how to dispose of higbvcast stocks and prevent one or more of its pitl being closed PIT IMPROVEMENT Large sums of money have beea spent on modernization of the Kent pits since they were nationalized Kent miners who receive £4 11s 1d per shift at the cool face are the second highest paid in the whole country On the other hand they produce only 21 hundredweightper man shift as compared with national av erege of 25 bundredwelght in its operation of the last year the Kent coalfield has incurred loss of £302000 So as result of high wages and low produc tion Kent coal isso highly pric ed that many markcLs are clos ed to it So it is certain that until there is drastic change in the coal situation in the United King dom the billions of tons of coal under the English channelle remain untouched and no effort will be made to develop it gale Harbor It is the channel between the Brake and the Fork that is getting narrower The sands have moved much more rapidly than was anticipated or has ever been experienced in the past and the channel into Rama gate hasnlréady narrowed to sucb an extent as to create grave fears that it may be closed un less remedial works can be und ertaken This narrowing of the channel would affect only stripping going to and from the harbor at Rains gate since the route lies inside the Goodwin Sands and between them and the coast Big ships moving outside
