This is only about 24.000.o0O tons

AT the beginning of the coal
strike it was estimated that about
65,O0c,00O tons OF bituminous coal
were above ground and in Storage.
Coal men call this the reserve

The conntryis consuming about
100000 tons OF bituminous a
week.
Production by non-union mines
during the strike has averaged
about 100000 tons a week.
This made a drain OF about 1000

The bottom of the bin is generally

The Shortage
When the coal strike started,
many union mines were practically
shut down because they could not
compete with the cheaper labor of
the open.shop mines.
The general opinion among coal
men is that the strike has created
sufficient market" or shortage, to
insure union mines a market for
their coal as we'll as non-union coal
until the end Of next March. They
are basing this belief on the assunl
ton that union mines can be pro-
ducing at capacity by the middle of
September.
