 Now railroads say more thou sands of furloughs are in the cards. Duquesne Light Company, big Pittsburgh utility, said it has only enough coal to insure cleo trical power to 2,OOO plants for another week.
 Over the nation, less than two weeks coal reserves remain stored above. ground. The coal in- dustry said the supply is poorly distributed.
 Through the coal fields, the miners are out for a showdown in their struggle for new con- tract and the five-day week.
 "The Taft-Hartley law cannot dig coal" declared Althronia Brown, a committeeman of the Maxwell local near Uniontown, Pa. "We won't be blackjacked in- to the mines"
 The only UNIV members work ing are 80,000 anthracite Chard coaD miners in eastern Pennsyl- vania and about 30,000 bitumin- ous Csoft coaD miners covered by new contracts,
 It is the first nationwide coal Walkout since Dec. l. That one ended a few hours after it started on order of UNIV chief John L. Lewis.
 Word that President Truman reluctantly had invoked the Taft Hartley act in the 10-month-old coal dispute had little effect on the embittered miners. They have termed this a showdown fight in their battle with the coal opera tors for more pay, and an increase in welfare fund payments.

 Ted Duffield of the Housing Committee reports that an effort Is being made to compile a list of residents of Nome who desire aid in building so that the list will be ready to meet the Territorial Housing Authority committee on their projected visit to Nome.
