Coal car shortage cripples Hocking Valley mines
Mines in the Hocking and Sunday Creek valleys face a severe car shortage that could last three weeks. Some mines have only seven hours of supply, others about a day, with no clear outlook for Tuesday. Output at Mine No. 281 reaches 2,000 tons daily when full, while several mines near Sunday Creek are idle due to car scarcity. The K and M delivers about half normal, Z and W nearly all, and operators fear daily car allocations will vary. In London, Herbert Shiner, ex policeman, becomes Brigadier General as he resigns to join the army.
