COAL PRODUCTION DROPS
Ten States Pledge Aid to Hardfns's
Program to Reopen Mines.

Saginaw, Mich.-Governor Alex j.
Groesbeck indicated that he may take
steps to operate Michigan coal mines
under state direction, in view Of the
refusal of John l.. Lewis, president Of
the United Mine Workers of America,
to allow the miners of this state to
settle their differences with the oper.
ators Independent OF their national
affiliations.
Governor Groesbeck had been told
at a conference of miners and opera.
tors that differences between them
were not great and it might be pos.
sible to settle them by arbitration.
Immediately the governors sent a
telegram to Mr.. Lewis at Washington,
asking permission to negotiate sep.
arate state agreemnt.
The decision to consider state oper.
alton of the mines followed receipt of
Mr.. Lewis refusal to permit the men
to settle the strike other than on a
national basis.

Chicago-The failure Of all efforts

ment issued by Ben Hooper, chairman
of the United States Railroad Labor

tween the rail roads and the strike
leaders on all Of the five points in dis.
pute except that Of the return to the

incidental question which was not

CAPACITY OF DAKOTA ~

Williston-With fuel famine in
prospect, due to the nationwide strike
of coal miners, plans for reopening
mines, opening new ones, and Increasing
mine production, are being made, q
survey Of mining conditions and possib-
ilites just completed in this section
shows.
1t is stated that maximum production
could be maintained for years, because
the coal resources Of this district are
practically unlimited. Only the upper
veins Of coal land have been touched,
it is stated. !.
Besides the government mines, the
product Of which is used exclusively
for operating the power plant Of the
United States reclamation service,
there is only one mine of Importance
being operated-the Williston Coal &
Ice company mine with facilities for
mining and shipping 500 tons daily.
The Black Diamond coke mine,
tured over to a few miners, is produc-
ing from 20 to rs tons daily for local
use. The president says that within
go days the mine could be operating
at full capacity.
Plans are being made for reopening
the Bruegger mine at Avoca, closed for
six years for lack Of capital. The coal
will be briquetted.
The El!ithrope mine, operating at a
capacity Of SO tons daily, could be in
creased to 100 tons, it is stated. The
Square Deal mine now produces rs
tons daily. .f.
These, together with the Star mine
and Lovejoy mine could provide fuel
for a large section Of the United
States, it Is stated.
