Special Despatch 10 THE NEW YORK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. c., Sept. IL.
Ranks OF the jobless will be reduced
substantially within thirty days by
more normal operations in coal mines
according TO reports TO Secretary OF
Commerce Hoover.
Surveys of unemployment in the coal
industry, which is tagging because of
slow buying. revealed TO economic ex-
perts detailed by Secretary Hoover for
this study. that perhaps is per cent
or more OF the idleness In the country
is due directly to the shutdowns or part
time operations in the coal mining
regions.
Secretary Hoover expects that by the
close OF October conditions viii have
improved greatly In the larger bitumi-
nous field. where unemployment is most
severe. No figures on hand show the
aggregate unemployment in this indus
try. The absence of such figures, 1t is
explained. Is due to the fact that there
has been a constant shifting of coal
dlggers from the mines into other fields.
To what extent the miners have gone
into other work is not known to officials
here. 1t Is conceded that many may
have gone into the farming sections dur
ing the harvesting season. For the
most part. however, those In charge Of
Mr.. Hoover's Unemployment canvass be-
lieve most miners have remained near
the mines awaiting the moment for re-
sumption Of full speed activity.
1t was said tonight that Mr.. Hoover's s
suggestion to public utilities to lay in
their winter stocks of bituminous may
soon reflect large buying by such con-
Germs, and will have the effect of stimu-
lating the soft coal industry. Other
buyers of bituminous. 1t was said. will
be compelled to make contracts or ar
rangements for their winter supply at
an early date or run the risk of short
age next winter.
Large buyers of bituminous coal are
said to realize that with the limitations
OF the railroads, and their inability to
handle normal traffic because of the
large amount of disabled equipment. the
carriers may not be able to move needed
supplies the coming winter II there is a
jam Of last minute orders for fuel.
