street. The interior Of the building
adjoining Wards Flats, scene Of q
disastrous blaze on April 6. was
badly Quilted by flames. Several
families were made temporarily
homeless by the fire.
An investigation on the part OF
fire officials resulted in the report
of Fire Marshal D. J. Lahey that
sparks from a rubbish fire was
responsible. The alarm was regis
tered at headquarters at 1924
o'clock.
Nick's Grill and the Silver Dollar

a bit on the west coast. But 10 per
cent OF bituminous coal production
and most of Lewis following and
funds come from q seven-state area
where the veins are thick and deep
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland,
West Virginia, Virginia, Kentucky
and Tennessee.
In the hours after midnight today
the reports began rolling In from
those areas.
Western Pennsylvania was hit
hard-the primary source Of soft
coal for ttsburgh's great steel
mills. The coal stoppage will slow
steel production almost Immediately
and within a fort light 1t could stop
1t. Illinois union spokesman re-
ported all the states $4,000 UNIV
members idle as Of midnight and a
scattering Of American Federation
of Labor miners Joined the strike
there. County-by-county the story
came in OF idleness stilling the pits
Strip and deep vein miners stopped
In Indiana. Only one OF West Vir-
ginia's $50 coal mines was known
to be In operation one minute az
ter midnight. II was a small mine
employing $50 of the states 10000
miners. Bloody Harlan" reported
$4,000 miners idle In southeastern
Kentucky.
Six-day Week
Miners usually do not work on
Saturday but under war pressure
some 225 900 OF them have been on
SIX day week. Early reports In
dicated that few II any OF these
we're mining coal today. Full force
OF the shut down will not be felt
until Monday In the pits and still
later In the great industrial areas
where guns and trucks and tools
OF war are made.
AS the work stoppage spread the
power OF government was being
brought TO bear on Lewis and the
miners. Price Administrator Preniss
M. Brown and Director OF War In
formation Elmer Davis were on the
air last night breaking the way for
such action as Mr.. Roosevelt may
take today. Brown warned that
this strike crisis must be averted---
and quickly-lest 1t reach the bat
tlefields. He told how Congress
had been dissuaded from legislating
higher prices for farm products and
pleaded with the miners not to
touch off race between wages and
cost OF living.
Conceding that prices were up, he
said miners weekly wages have In
creased SO per cent since the war
began In September, 1889, against a
cost Of living hike OF % per cent
"a net gain OF rs per cent In pur-
chasing power for the miners. He
conceded that prices were too high
that there was a black market. But
he promised to roll back the one
and stop the other and said ht
would extend price control right
across the board, 10 every import
ant commodity. Prices will be rolled
back, he said, especially on meats
fresh and canned vegetables ano
coffee.
To-day we can do the Job and w
shall do the job" promised Brown
He went on the air TO argue with the
miners, to challenge Lewis charge
that the prevailing little Steel
formula for wage increases and Mr.
Roosevelt'g "hold-the-line" order OF
April 8 on prices, wages and salaries
were unfair. Brown said $50 inves-
tigators working In the coal areas
would have q cost-of-living and
prices report by next mid-week.

from the most prolonged cold spell
of the winter which found the mer-
curry around the zero mark for three
days.
Lowest temperature was registered
Monday morning when the thermom-
eter dropped to six degrees below
zero.
The cold wave struck Saturday
night and high winds which whipped
snow into swirling eddie aggravated
the cold which kept the temperature
only a. few degrees above zero dur
ing the entire day.
Tuesday showed some improvement
and a temperature of 20 degrees
above zero was registered at mid
night. Prediction Wednesday morn
ing was for warmer weather and
fresh winds.
