Washington Believes Min
ers and Operators
Should Have Fears.
MAY LOSE MARKET
Anthracite Users Will Be
Urged to Use Substi-
tute Fuels.
By DAVID LAWRENCE.

Copyright. by The San Antonio Light.
Washington, ID. C., Aug. 23-Presi-
dent Coolidge and bis cabinet do not
fear an anthracite coal strike. They
think the miners and operators OF
hard coal have more to fear than the
consumers. Should there be an an
thracite strike this fall. the convic-
ton of most everybody in the govern
ment is that the American people
will grow so tired of the constant
wrangling over hard coal prices and
the inconvenience of frequent strikes
that once and for all a large body of
consumers will begin using soft coal
and permanently bring down the mar
ket for hard coal.
The impression was conveyed today
from official sources that il the con-
tending forces in the anthracite con-
troversy really go 10 the extreme of
permitting a strike, they will simply
be cutting off their noses TO spite
their faces. Instead of the weapon
of necessity and indispensability which
has enabled both operators and miners
TO exact from the public higher prices.
the use of substitutes may be practiced
this year on such an unprecedented
scale as to injure permanently the
hard coal business.
