Coal output restricted by United Mine Workers order
The sub district presidents of District No. 2 United Mine Workers issued an order to local checkweighmen and miners in northern and central Pennsylvania to cut bituminous coal output by one third. Working days are limited to four per week with suspensions on Wednesdays and Saturdays where no coke ovens operate, effective June 25. The aim is to restrain output to prevent operators from filling orders for coal used where anthracite coal had been used before the miners' strike.
