Union leaders claimed today that
nearly AGO 900 men or rwo-Snirds of
the bituminous coal miners in the
country had responded to strike call
effective last midnight
This figure represents practically
the entire union membership. The
operators generally made no estimate
of the number OF men out In their
respective districts. in the few in
stances where they did, their figures
were much lower than union claims,
though in one or two cases the rival
estimates agreed.
| Although officials Of the United
Mine Workers were technically re-
strained from directing tho strike by
the restraining order issued yeste r
day in the indianapolis Federal court,
the miners apparently were suffi-
cscntiy Instructed to initiate the
strike without further orders today.
The latest step In government coal
distribution was the appointment BY
Rail Director Hines Of committees to
take charge of this WORK In the
eighth regional railway districts, with
headquarters in New York, Boston,
Philadelphia, Atlanta, Pittsburgh,
Cleveland, Chicago ana St Louis.

WASHINGTON, Nov. THE story
of the governments efforts to prevent
a stoppage of soft coal production was
reaching out here today in the form OF
reports as TO how many miners obeyed
union orders TO quit work at mid.

/ Complete returns win not be in until
Monday night, since Saturday in many
mine fields is a virtual holiday and
even men who do not strike will prob
ably not report for work today.
Officials today were already hopeful
that the final returns will show enough
men ready to work to keep coming
from the mines supply of soft coal.

protest against the issuance Of an in
junction against the mine strike, de
claring it a blow at the rights OF
