Elbert F. Osborn of the Bureau of Mines warned a sudden nationwide ban on coal strip mining would strain energy supplies. A phased six to five year shutdown could allow oil imports or secondary recovery to fill the gap, while a rapid ban threatens 20,000 Appalachian miners and a shift back to deep shaft mining.
