Washington Shows anxiety
Over Possible Coal Pros
duction Tie-up.
BY Pau. &. MaJ,on'

United Prese StnG CoTresDo ndent
WASHINGTON, July S.-Threat
Of a general strike of the nations
half million coal miners which would
completely tie up next winters fuel
supply, has aroused Government OBJ
servers who are watching with
anxiety a situation daily growing
in gravity.
An issue has been drawn between
operators and miners which is
threatening the life of the union or.
ganization and both sides are pre-
pared to fight it out.
For weeks the trouble has been
brewing quietly. it had it's origin
in the northern West Virginia fields
where the Union has virtually beer
driven out. Production Of union coal
represents only about 10 per cent of
the total production OF the region
where five years ago the fields were
nearly 80 per cent unionized
Numerous operators contending
that they could not mine coal on a
S7.25 union wage scale, have closed
their pits, to reopen them few
weeks later on a non-union wage
scale between 81 and SIS. Since that
time other operators in Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Kentucky and some
other coal producing states have
taken similar action. Union leaders
see in this concerted effort to kill
the United Mine Workers organiza-
ton throughout the country.
The chief weapon the union holds
is a general strike of both anthracite
and bituminous fields and the warn
ing that it might be used was given
this week by President John L.
Lewis of the United Mine Workers
in addressing the tri-district anthra-
cite convention at Scranton, Pa.
