That might create just the emergency that would bring the government into the picture. In the past 24 hours, ending late last night, nearly 20,000 miners have quit work. Several mines resumed operations. So today there are about 66,000 soft coal diggers off the job. They’re ‘in Pennsylvania—the most heav- ily hit—West Virginia, Alabama, Kentucky, Ohio, Utah and Vir- ginia. The strike now is costing the nation about four million tons of coal per day.
