Gurvitch Blames Coal Needs for French Ills

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The lack of coal and industrial energy has been one of the insurmountable obstacles to French reconstruction, Professor Georges Gurvitch of the University of Strasbourg stated last night in Emerson D.

"French industrial equipment," he said, "is now the most out-moded in the world." The former visiting lecturer in Sociology found in the situation a series of difficulties: France needs machine tools but them; France needs a lower cost of living, but to accomplish this, she needs the coal which cannot be obtained. In this way, the entire mechanism of reconstruction is impeded, he pointed out.

"France can serve as mediator and arbiter among nations of differing ideologies," he stated, "But she can only do so as part of a world organization guaranteeing distribution of fuel resources."
