APPEAL BY PRESIDENT

The President asked that mines
be reopened by the northern OPP
orators, who already have reached
a.. agreement with the CLOS
United Mine Workers Union of
America. the work to be carried
out under terms of the new agree
ment.
Miners and the southern opera
tors. who have rejected the con-
tract accepted by northern own
ers, were told that they should
enter into negotiations and at the
same time resume production. the
agreement ultimately reached to
be made retroactive to the date
of starting work.
while an agreement between
a majority of operators and
workers In the bituminous coal
industry has been negotiated,
there IL still disagreement with
the union and one group Of OPP
orators on one side and another
group OF operators on the other,-
Mr.. Roosevelt said. "The result
Is that the mines, which should
be operating, are not doing so
and there Is a diminishing sup
ply of soft coal available to
plants engaged In defense pro-
duction.
1T Is imperative that there he
no shortage now. or at any other
time, of coal for defense produc-
ton purposes"
The Presidents action came as
defense officials described the coal
strike as extremely serious" and
said that more than a score oil
companies engaged in defense
production had less than a weeks
supply of coal on hand.
