Officials Await May Take Miners Action Contempt Rise
In Washington and across states officials awaited moves in the coal strike as federal rationing orders take effect. Reports indicate bituminous production slipped slightly from last week while the government stands firm on rationing, aiming to curb shortages as talks on resuming work continue. A vice-regal injunction extended to miners and operators, with federal prosecutors preparing contempt proceedings if the strike persists. A meeting of strip coal mine operators with Governor Goodrich was adjourned, with plans for a Saturday session to pursue resumption talks.
