WASHINGTON. July 21. 81owlr
paralyzing the nation's industries,
threatening a widespread shortage of
light and heat within a few days,
causing Increasing disorders with
loss of life, and property damage run
ning into millions, combined rail and
coal strikes have brought on an in
dustrial crisis, according to a United
Press national survey today.
Wheels are slowing on the nation'!
railroads, public utilities are closing
down, and actual suffering from coal
shortage is near.
Sabotage Common
Kidnaping, beatings, and sabotage
are reported from practically every
railroad or mine center. Trouble is
feared in western Pennsylvania, West
Virginia and Ohio as the mines re
open. State troops are on duty in
New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, West
Virginia and Ohio.
Steamship service on the great
lakes is curtailed by fuel shortage.
Harvest centers lack fuel to run
threshing machines. The steel in
dustry in Youngstown. Ohio, is down
to "scrapings."
Rationing, confiscating and emer
gency measures to import coal were
announced by many states. Importa
tion of coal on shipping board vessels
from England is being considered.
Due to the coal shortage and strike,
trains on branch lines are being dis
continued, and other trains are run-,
ning far behind schedule.
