Coal Control Bill Will Get Consideration
The Guffey coal control bill will be taken up by the Senate after the Bankhead farm tenant bill is settled. Leaders plan to pause the current bill if it drags into protracted debate and move to the Guffey measure. It would set a federal commission to oversee the bituminous coal industry and avert a 400,000 miner strike slated for July 1. The House Ways and Means Committee is also examining a similar bill, with action unlikely soon.
