The statement said that In some places such hardship is "only a matter of hours away." In Chicago, the American Re tail Coal association said Mr. Truman's statement "will sur- Erise those citizens who are now urnlng wood because coal is un available." Emergency Claim Persists Joseph E. Moody, president ol the Southern Coal Producers as sociation, who has been saying all along that there Is an emergen cy, commented that the presi dent's statement hasn't changed his mind. Before Mr. Truman's news con ference, Moody had released fig ures to show that coal stockpiles were at the lowest level in at least IS years. The southern operators said there was no record ol any time when reserves lell below the 22, 400,000 tons they estimate are above ground now. "If there's another strike," Moody said, "we'll go right through the bottom." Other operators declared that Mr. Truman had called an emer gency and used the Taft-Hartley act to halt a Lewis strike oh April 3, 1948 when there was a stockpile of 43,000,000 tons avail able above ground. Lewis Using Strategy Industry spokesmen who asked tn remain anonymous asserted they had reports that at least two army camps in the second corps area were short of coal, that federal agencies were un able to attract bidders for coal suDDlles. and that the Interior department had made a survey ot retail yard-s but secretary of Interior Chapman was "sitting on it." Lewis has been biding his time since last spring waiting for a coal shortage to develop in order to make a favorable contract with the. operators. Up to now the stockpile has been unusually high, which has strengthened the hand of the mine owners. When the old contract ran out last July 1, Lewis cut the work week to three days. Then in Sep tember he called a full-fledged strike. After 52 days he ordered the miners back on the three-day week. There still was a chance that the National Labor Relations board might try to end the short ened work week without White House action. Malor operators have joined in an unfair labor practice com- Blalnt against Lewis and the MW, and have asked the NLRB to eet a court injunction. They say the short week is planned to coerce them into signing an il legal contract. U. Y.

Ben ecke, administrative assistant in the Umpqua National forest of fice. The total Firmco bid was $351, 232 for the timber located on Cavitt creek water shed, approx imately 30 miles east of Myrtle Creek. Also bidding for the timber was the E. T.

Benecke said the timber is largely good quality Douglas lir and is to be manufactured by Firmco in the plywood plant and mill at Mrtle Creek.
