(OP)-A high-level conference to sal vaga the Nova Scotia coal industry ended inconclustvely Friday but Premier Henry I-licks said a drive to capture more of the British market was underway. The premier issued the only statement in a day that brought three federal cabinet members, union represnta- tives and the Dominion Steel and was billed as a major attempt to solve the marketing dil- emma of the 075,000,000 industry. producing 400.000 tons of call a year that cannot be sold. ”lf. Dosco can get an order at a price that will permit them to continue operating, the mine will stay open." Mr. Hicks said. That statement was a tip-off that the conference had failed to settle l-B's troubles because Dosco has said all along that it would keep the colliery open if its coal could be placed. "Mind you, we may still try to do other things but I am not sure just now what they would be." the premier said. EN ROUTI T0 BRITAIN Ha disclosed. 'hnwever, that a Doaco representative was en route to Britain with the mission of try- ing to sell coal. Mr. Hicks did not disclose what success he had achieved in the United Kingdom but observers con- sidered it unlikely the Dosco sales- man would have been dispatched unless prospects were favorable. Union representatives indicated before the meeting they had come prpared for a showdown.
