Danish revolt and Nazi occupation face new strikes
Reports from Denmark say at least two people were killed or wounded as sailors and civilians fought the occupation forces in a two day revolt that toppled much of the government. German authorities imposed martial law and rounded up officers as strikes spread to many cities including Skagen Saeby Aalborg Viborg Kus Grenaa Fredericia and Aarhus. King Christian, held prisoner, and Premier Stanevius were removed from power as the regime faced a defiant wave of strikes despite threats of penalties and death.

Absenteeism Blamed For U S Coal Shortage
Washington AP reports a blunt bulletin from the National Coal Association charging miners with absenteeism and indifference behind a coal shortfall since the spring strike. It also argues government inaction magnified the problem and calls for enforceable directives to boost output. Secretary Ickes says miners aren’t at full efficiency due to bitterness from the absence of a work contract. Bituminous production for the week ending August 21 was 11,979,000 tons, down from 12,030,000. anthracite declined to 1,253,000 tons from 1,327,000.
