wllkesbarre, Pa, June l9-Now that
the call for a special national conyen-
ton has been made for July Il, Il is
not expected there viii be any very i'm
portant Developments In the coal strike
situation until that time, II is not UNI
likely, however that some Of the bitum-
nous districts will take action similar
to that OF the central Pennsylvania dis
trlct which last night decided to cut
down the soft coal production from
that territory one-third.
Dissatisfaction was expressed By
some Of the strikers because the con-
ventlon was set a month hence. While
the leaders around strike headquarters
will not talk II is believed the fixing Of
the date for July Il was wise move
A partial curtailment Of coal produc-
ton would have a serious effect on the
business Of the country and Il is hoped
that during the next month some plan
may be devised by which such a state
" affairs can be avoided.

main unchanged.
