October 23. 114,2 r.t ft . i Coal Output foi lYear Behind 1948 Figure Br Harold W.vvYard WASHINGTON, Oct. 22 U.S. oft coal production is run ning 125,000,000 ton behind the 1943 pace, the national coal associ ation reported today. To no one's surprise, the association blamed mot of the loss on "John L. Lewis' strikes.". The production slump- was dis closed as indications grew that the VMte House is aiming at a set tlement of the 22-day-old steel strike before it hopes to do much ab iut ending the coal shutdown; Talks between Cyrus S. Ching. iation chief and U. S. Steel corporation, leaders in New York city were in recess for the week end, but will be resumed Monday. Cr ing said the dispute seemed no closer to settlement after three days of talks. Trying with Leaders 1 Ching has been talking with the steel leaders face to face and con sulting with the strike bosses by telephone. U.S. Steel, the key producer and usually the pattern fixer for the Industry, stood pat against pen sions and Insurance without em- f ioye contribution. CIO President 'hilip Murray, who also-heads the mre than 500.000 steelworkers out on strike since October 1, has been just as firm against employe contributions. Vr :nand Contribution Murray has demanded that the steel companies contribute 10 cents on hour per man toward old age and welfare benefits. That is what a presidential fact finding board rrcurnmended and Murray accept ed, waiving his earlier demand for fourth round wage increase. The coal strike was rapidly In terfering with the normal lives of people who have never been in mine. The interstate commerce commission ysterday ordered coal fueled railroads with less than 25 days coal supply to slash: their passenger train operations by one fourth. The national coal association re potted that production from Janu - orv 1 to October 8 this year was 141. 633,000 tons. John D. Battlo, executive vice president of the NCA, said Lewis' strikes were responsible for most of the 125 million ton drop below last year's production, although he conceded that a part of the decrease was attributable to market conditions; No One Swings at Biilte Dogcatcher BUTTE, Mont -(IV One of the toughest Jobs in Butte that of dogcatcher has been filled after being vacated for several years. The new man's identity is care fully kept secret and his working hours are entirely at night in order to avoid undue friction with young and old dog owners. System's working pretty welL too.
