Will Car Shortage Ad Labor Trouble Produce Coal Famine Next Winter
Public faces a cold winter if miners strike nationwide and mines shut in bituminous districts, as National Coal Association leaders testify to the Senate. They warn that a three-way clash among consumer, producer, and transporter, plus railroad car shortages, could trigger a coal famine unless the United States Railroad Administration cooperates and cars are freed. Miners plan a Cleveland convention to demand a six hour day, higher wages, and five day weeks, while officials stress no price fixing exists and urge even distribution of coal across months to stabilize supply and prices.
