PENDLETON|NDUSTR|ES
LAYING IN EXTRA COAL

Indications that the coal strike,
called for Nov. is already having an
effect upon production, are being seen
in Pendleton. Users of coal in large
quantities are noticing that their sup
ply is more difficult to obtain and
general strike of bitimunous coal
miners would quickly affect many in
dustries here.
ut used to be that we could get
car of coal almost on an hours no.
tice," Dr. +. w Vincent. manager of
the Pacific Power & Light Co. said.
Now we are obliged to order several
days in advance or we are liable to
DC round running short. Deliveries
from the Roslyn mines, in Washing
ton, are so uncertain that the COM
pany has been obliged to get coal
from Sunnyside, Utah.
No danger of a gas shortage is seen
here unless the strike becomes a re-
aIity. A carload of coal will operate
the local plant 10 days, DIR. Vincent
says, and orders have been sent in for
sufficient coal TO operate for pehraps
a month. There is an element of un-
certainty in delivery, however, and
with the strike likely, there is no pre-
dieting what may happen, not only to
the gas supply, but to many other in
dustries as we'll
