WASHINGTON. Oct 29-produc-
ton OF bituminous coal since Septcm-
ber has exceeded the average and the
increased available supply has been
taken care of by the railroads, Director
General Hines announced Tonight,
with the result that the country enters
coal strike in far better shape than
had the walk-out occurred during the
six months previous to September.
The first six months of 1919, the
Director General said, saw an ab-
normally small amount Of coal mined
and transported because o. lack of de.
mand. The highest production that
had ever been made in & week. he
stated, was 100000 tons The high
est that had been averaged for auy
considerable period of weeks was some
"Up TO September" his statemert
said, mot exceeding 1o,000,0oo tons OF
bituminous coal had been transported
a week. The railroad administrator
early N September Instructed that the
railroads endeavor to provide trans
portation for 100000 tons week
The result has been as follows
Week ended September 13, 1l,O46,-
600 tons; September %, 1928 900
ions; September q, l1,6l3,000 tons;
October 1. 1l,51S, 900 tons; October l.
li,8Si,o0o tons; October Is (esti-
mated), 11,S74,ooo tons; October %
(estimatedl, $500 300 tons"
On October 16, the director contin-
ued, instructions were issued for rail
roads serving coal mines to make pref
erential efforts TO furnish empty coal
ears up to the ability of the mines to
load daily. and for non-coal loading
railroads to begin immediately to de-
liver daily to their nearest coal load
ing or coal route connections empty
coal ears I'D to the maximum ability.

the mine workers representatives have
urged and besought them to do so.
The fundamental causes which prompted
the mine workers to take this drastic
action are deep-scatcd. For two years
their wages have remained stationary.
They appealed one year ago to the
Federal Fuel Administrator, DR.. Gar
field and from him to the PI .sident OF
the United States, FOR an increase in
wages sufficient TO meet the increase
in the cost OF the necessaries of life.
Their appeal was rejected and their
request refused. Notwithstanding this
they continued mining coal until now
their contract e~pirca, when they are
determined that their grievances must
be adjusted in a reasonably satisiac-
tory manner.
"The courts have held that the
working men have a right to strike
and may Quit work either sngly or col
lectivelN for the purpose OF reGre ssina .
grievances and rigNing wages. The
Constitution and guarantees Of thi.
free government give men the right te
work or quit work individually or col
lectivcly.
Right to Strike Defended
The mine workers therefore are ex-
ercsing the rigM guaranteed by the
Constitution, and which cannot be taket
away by the prescntatives Of the gov-
ernment, when they quit work or wher
they refuse to W rk until their yriov.

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 29.-Thirty thou

working within thirty miles of the
Pittsburgh retail district, were said
by their leaders tonight to be ready
to leave the pits when the final order
is given Friday night.
In addition to this army, many o.

and western Pennsylvania. were await

and where operators said they did
not expect thc suspension to become
general.
Steel men. discussing the possible
effects OF coal strike, estimated that
many mills in the Pittsburgh district
could soperate for several weeks with
fuel stocks now on hand. while some
plants, largely dependent upon natural
gas for fuel, would suffer little in
convenience. Many steel companies
have been stocking coal for weeks,
adding to the reserves they always
have in anticipation of labor trouble
in the mines.
Householders in LARGE numbers took
comfort from the fact that they use
natural gas for fuel, Il fact which is

TO deal, however. with different
situation. There was no loss of time
Exactly what the government pro-
posed to do was not explained, but
paramount consideration was given
tha problem of keeping a volume Of
coal passing swiftly from mines to
cities within the next few days and
rounding up u civilian army that
might be ready to work the mines.
The necessity Of revving the fuel
administration was emphasized at va

ield, still technically head of the fuel
administration, has no skeleton organ

nobi.lzed. Administration leaders said
Congress would have to provide i'm
mediate funds. and assurances came
from leaders of both houses. it was
stated, that all the moEey the govern

Railroads Have First Call
Clothed with its wartime powers,

upon to SEQ that the coal supply is con
served and distributed as it WAS dur

roads must have first call, with second

Inc government holds the miners are
working to-day under the wartime
agreement made by DIR. GARFIELD, stipu-
lated to run until the end of the war,
or until April /, 1920. This date was
put into the agreement so d new scale
might pc agreed upon in event the
war was not over by that date. The
Fuel Administration, holding the agree

and keep them in operation
DR.. Garfield was called TO Washing

Director General Hines. The railroad
administration is the nations bgees,
coal buyer, and its stock, according tc
reports given out last week by unior
officials is relatively small
Ample Car Facilities Provided
Anticipating a strike, the railroads
especially those touching the centra
coal fields, have been given 100 pei

that railway stocks have been largely
increased within the last light

Since miners and operators failed tc
settle their differences at the join,
conference here last week reports had
gained wide circulation that the men
who called the strike would be arrested
and held on charges Of conspiracy
John l: Lewis, presden of the United
Mine Workers Of America, referred to
these reports. and said union men
