Coal Shortage Getting

cause of the unseasonably mild
weather." .
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.
