STRIKERS FAIL — TO RETURN TO MINES UNDER U.S. PLAN: ALL CHICAGO COAL SEED ’ | ; Regional Committees in Many | States Take Over Fuel for Distribution. SEVEN GOVERNORS ACT. Ask Government to Establish Uniform Rules and Name Administrators, WASHINGTON, Dec, 1.—Wartime | restrictions on the consumption of coal were ordered into effect to-day for the period of the present striki emergency. “It is necessary that coal shall be |, used only for essential purposes,” said Dr. Garfield's statement, explaining the Government's action, “Public utilities consuming coal should discon- tinue to furnish power, heat and light to non-essential industries and should only consume sufficient coal: to pro-| * duce enough light, power and heat to meet the actual urgent needs of the people, “advertising signs and displays of various kinds necessitating tho use of coal should be curtailed and no coal poses. Railroad Administratton officials onceded that the application would ean an industrial shutdown of con- iderable magnitude, but declined to ndertake a definite estimate. Indus- rial establishments operating from heir own power plants, it was said, probably would have to stop when heir present coal supply became ex- hausted. CHICAGO, Dec, 1.--Further strin- ent regulations for conservation of e] supplies, made necessary by the trike of bituminous coal miners who ve now been idle a month, were in fect to-day over virtually the entire untry between Ohio and the Rocky fountains and from Canada to the ult of Mexico. Regional Fuel Committees took con- rol of coal stocks in many States and jon-essential jndustries continued to lose Jown because of lack of fuel, hile the hours for operating stores, fheatres and office buildings were ‘tailed. Reports during the day from the rge bituminous fields of Ilinois, Ind- na and Ohio gave no indication that union miners intended to accopt he offer of an increase of 14 per cent. wages mage by the Federal Fuel dministration. Neither was there ny indication that local settlements ould be effected between miners and pperators. Pitt#ourgh dispatches said that ef- forts of operators to reopen mines in he district and the Western and Cen- ral Pennsylvania fields had failed. Philip Murray, President of District fo, 5, United Mine Wgrkers, declared hat not one union mine in his terri- ory worked to-day, and operators in itteburgh said his statement was robably correct. It was also recommended that all equitably the forty-e among (Continued en Fourteenth Page.) mash 5c Doon, wee Sondave fron THE WORLD TRAVEL BORRAD, Arete, Dalen (Wort) Raising 83-68 Park Row, Ne. oi eee Beciemad ono, wom for bagrage and parcrie open day ond Monay| coders and’ isavaliem’ chose ‘tor hould be distributed for such pur- | oal mined and in stock be distributed | JERSEY CITY POLIGEMEN OUSTED FOR UNION ACTIVITY Firemen Also Lose Jobs for Insub- Ordination and Conduct Pre- judicial to Department.
