600000 Miners Out On Strike Across Districts
In Shamokin and nearby districts about 70,000 anthracite miners prepared for a nationwide strike as 5,000 more planned to join, with 198 percent potential impact. Moves included keeping pumps and engines on duty, no violence warnings, and a six week to two month expected suspension. In Hazelton area about 40,000 miners quit, while 20,000 in Wilkes-Barre and 38,000 in other counties followed. Plan to strike across three coal fields endangers supply as shipments continue. In Altoona and other regions 35 hung-red miners planned to strike at midnight, following leaders' orders. Ten thousand rail workers in Pennsylvania were to be laid off due to the anthracite stoppage.

Nation Has Ample Supply of Coal, Government View
Washington reports that despite efforts to prevent a coal shortage, officials believe a surplus or price protection may be needed to safeguard the public. A House committee heard that 63 million tons of coal, an 11 day supply for consumers, exists and will be supplemented by late outputs from West Virginia and elsewhere. Federal Reserve and Geological Survey notes say stocks are ample and demand remains steady despite talk of a strike.

Government holds line as coal strike drags on
The report details a prolonged coal strike influence where unions led by Farrington push for centralized wage talks, while operators seek autonomy to negotiate with individual mines. Despite a Labor Board and talks of a fuel commission, no firm solution emerges and the strike risks continuing indefinitely as conferences await progress.
