repair of coal mining machinery. 'It-bas been determined that the
accessories and spare parts are for exclusive use with the parent
equipment. The Polish Trade Fission has informed BFC that it is
in possession of all equipment required for the production of these
bearings with the exception of 5 grinding machines. In view of the
:importance of the mining industry to the national economy 9f Poland
