In the United States, demand surges with West Virginia and eastern Kentucky operators thriving, exports nearing 1,000,000 tons weekly, and mines in the east resuming production after long idleness. The Pittsburgh Coal Company shifts toward unionization, boosting employment to 3,455 by October 28. Despite higher output across Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, and Kentucky, demand outpaces supply, with eastern coal waning and Illinois and western Kentucky gaining prominence. Export orders rise, lifting Middle West pricing and strengthening Chicago market activity.
