GARFIELD DIRECTS UNION MEN

GETHER At ONCE.
lntimated That Government lnterven.

Prevent Coal Famine, Unless
Differences Are Settled.

WashingtOn.-The rapidly vanishing
coal supply is causing much uneas-
mess, and the lack of speed displayed
in the matter of the settlement of the
differences between the operators and
the striking coal miners, with a re-
turn to normal production, has brought
forth statement from the fuel ad-
ministration that something must be
done, and at once, to supply the peo-
pie with proper amount of fuel.
The government slipped to the front
on Tuesday to force the miners and
operators to negotiate new wage
agreement and resume work in the
bituminous fields before the country
is In the grip Of coal famine.
Clothed with all of his wartime
powers as fuel administrator, and act

tees, called here last week to negOti-

central competitive fields, embracing
the states Of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and
Western Pennsylvania, strongholds Of
the United Mine Workers of America,
showed all mines shut down and not
enough coal coming from non-union
plants in other states to meet the nor
NAL demand by several million tons.
Other reports from widely separated
sections brought the same story of a
rapidly vanishing coal supply, with in
dicatiOns that hundreds Of Industrial
plants would be forced to close shortly
unless coal production was put back at
normal. In the view of many officials
the situation was critical enough to de-
mand drastic action.
