NATIONS LABOR TIEUP
LOOMS IN FUTURE
Administration Is Appre.
hensive Over General
Situation.

WASHINGTON, FEB 2.-Eeliet that
the nation is facing the greatest in
dustrial tie-up in its history within the
next six months was privately express
ed today in high administration quar-
ters.
Open efforts at a coalition between
the railroad workers and the coal min
ers, for the avowed purpose OF resist
ing proposed wage cuts. caused distinct
uneasiness.
II the union between these two key
industries is efected-and the belief
was expressed generally today that it
will bet will add mater ally TO the
increasing menace OF the general labor
situation, which now points to a wide
spread strike coon after April !. when
the miners national wage agreements
expire
Joint strike action By the railroad
workers and the miners would result
very shortly In almost complete indus
trial paralysis, II was admitted today.
Reserve coal stocks are small even
now, and there is no hope OF greatly
increasing them before the strike. pre-
dicted by Secretary of Commerce
Hoover for April is called.
Not since the great strike OF btu
minous miners In the winter of 1919,
when a general tieup was averted by
an Injunction issued in the federal
court at Indianapolis, has there been
such apprehension in official circles as
that which prevails today.
The situation may be made more
difficult it was pointed out today if the
railroaders and the miners after Co
ordinati ting their forces should under
take to include the now unorganized
steel workers. thereby forming a "tri-
pie alliance" with tremendous strength.
