Poland, as reported at the conference held by the Gentral Administration of the
Coal Industry (C.Z.W.) with the representatives of all the departments concerned.
Balance sheets of coking and gas coal, types 33-37, for 1954, are given below,
broken down according to type.

a. This shortage of 15,000 tons will be increased by the coal consumption
of the new battery of coke ovens at the Wiktoria coking plant which in 1954
will amount to 50,000 tons~of Type 34; and also by the coal consumption of the
Lenin Foundry (Nowa Huta) the amcunt of which will be according to one of the
three following estimates:
Estimated re uirements of cokin coal b the Lenin Found
n 1 includin coal of all t es
First estimate For production of 195,000 tons of coke, at the
rate of 1,427 kg. of coal consumption per one
ton of coke
Second estimate Assuming that Battery No. 1 Domes into operation
on 15 July (169 working days), and Battery No. 2
on 15 August (138 days), the coal consumption for
the total 'of 307 "charging" days, at the rate of
1,200 tons daily consumption per battery, will
amount to
278,{'?00 tons
0 0
318,000 ions
368,000 tons
0 00
398,000 tons
Third estimate The Central Administration of the Coal Industry
has suggested the acceptance of a more reasonable
consumption rate of 1,310 kg/ton which gives total
requirements of 255,000 tone
(Plus a reserve stock not stated.)
b. The types of coal required are as follows: Type 34 - 75~, Type 35 -
159~, Types 36/37 - 10~. Type 34 would be from the Anna and Marcel mines, type 35
from the Gliwice mine, types 36/37 from the Wiktoria mine.

c. Thus the requirements of Type ;~.c;ca1 by the Lenin Foundry amounts
to one of the following alternatives (being 75~ of tree totals):
1. ~ A+, the rate of 1,1,.27 kg~ton: 210,000 plus 30,000 tons.

a. Depending on which consumption figures are adopted by the Lenin Foundry,
the following deficit remains
l.) 127;000 tons - ($20;000 ~ 70,000 t 32,000)=-- 795,000 tons
2.) 136;000 tons - (8X`,000 t 70;000 f 41,000)= - 795,000 tons
3.) 125,000 tons (820,000 } 70,000 } 30,000 ~ - 795,000 tons
6. It has been decided to reduce the allocations of washed (refined) coals, types 33-3"!~
(for 1954) as follows:
a. The ~lzpply from the Gliwice Colliery:
Reduction
for the CZPK from 1,757,000 to 1,560,000 197,000
for the CZPH from 2/+2,000 to 220,000 22,000
b. The supply from the Wiktoria Colliery:
for the CZPK from ?,537,000 to 1,390,000 147,000
for the CZPH from 114,000 to 80,000 34,000
c. The supply from the Bolesla w Chrobry Colliery:
for the CZPK from 1,070,00 to 1.,050,000 20,000
for the CZPH from 714.,000 to ,~ 700.(`00 1~i000
5,434,000 5,000,000 434,000
7. Out of this,~the reduction in allocations of types 35-37 coal amounts to
80,000-90;000 tons which, if achieved, would reduce the deficits of these types
to 35-40,000 tons, taking into account the planned requirements for the Lenin
Foundry.
~. The Department of Sales and Transport of the Ministry of Mining is going to see
that coal washing is started in the Mieszko Colliery and this will give about
11;0 tons daily of washed (cleaned) coal, type 37. The remaining amount of coal
for the Wiktoria coking plant is planned to be supplemented by supplies from the
Sosnica and Bobrek Collieries.
Comments The total deficit of Type 34 coal will, therefore, be one of
following alternatives.
~. 305,000 tons ~ zlo,ooo + 3o,oco + 50,000 + 15,000
b. 370,000 tons = 275,000 } 30,000 + 50,000 + 15,000
c. 2;5,000 tons = 195-000 ~ 25.000 ~ 50.000 + 15.000
