In Ohio's Hocking Valley coal fields, where great coal mine fires have been raging continuously for last 62 yr, new fire roaring into its third month is threatening vast new damage; Ohio coal operators are fearful that new fire not only will render useless barriers built to protect reserves from older fires, but if not extinguished or isolated, will destroy in next 50 yr another $60,000,000 worth of coal.
