' It is believed here that within a
| week the fuel administrator will re
| establish lightless nights and will
{ curtail the use of coal by theaters and
othef places of amusement. Doctor
’(;u,rf!»l(l has indicated he would take
such steps before he would curtail
the distribution of coal to essentiaf
industries.
An increasingly rerious situation in
the produetion of coal, due apparéntly
to the tightening of the strike, is in
dicated for this week in reports from
the coal fields.,
The eonditiong in the mining dis
tricts are much worse than they were
a week ago when wage negotiations
were broken off.
Evidence is aceumulating threugh
reports from the mine district that
what really constitutes strike bene
|ms aré being paid to men who were
an%&gerl in the strike,
he American Federation of Labor
is reported as having opened com
missaries in many of the mining com
munities in which men on strike are
receiving goods and supplies with
the unlerstanding that they will be
paid for by the mine workers wheh
ever they return to work.
These commissaries have been
opened up over a ldarge area of the
coal producing sections of the coun
try and others, it is understood, will
be opened before the week is over.
