(International} Coal Slrike Cuis Steel Operations Industry Prepares For Drastic Cuts Pittsburgh, April 1— (CPI — Tin- steel industry prepared today to cut operations drastically to conserve coal as 100.000 I'nited Mine worker* went on strike at 2.000 pit* in western Pennsyl van la. Carnegie-Illinois Steel Corp. the nation's largest steelmaker, was hard-hit bv the closing of its 16 “captive mines." The company planned 59 bank 20 of the 32 district Idast furnace* "almost immediately." Other steel producer*. Including Jobes it Ixiughllll Steel Corp, ieported only two weeks' coal supply on hand. Meanwhile, the strikers observed a traditional miner’* holidav —"John Xfiuhell Day." Mitchel) was a pioneer VMW president who jumped the memltershlp from 33.000 to 268,000 and who led the fight for an eight hour day won a 48 years ago today. Thousand* of miners paraded at New Kennington an I Cniontown. Pa. and throughout the soft coal field*. There was no picketing. Inside the m nes only maintenance men ami supervisors worgetl. For others it was. "no contract, no work " The walkout was the first widespread coal Strike *inc* last Octobor, when over 200.090 miners were idle In six stater. In a Stoppage that lasted four weeks The issue then was recognition of the supervisory workers' union Os the CMW's district 50. but the strik* was called oft l»y I'MW president John L. la-wis until "a more appropriate time" The October strike forced Car-negie-lllinoi* to lay ntt HROOO steelworker* and suffer production loss of 100.000 ingot tons a week. Jones It Ixiughlln and other steel producers also had to curtail operations. The recent steel strike prevented Catnegie-illlnois from stockpiling any great amount of coal for Its coke plant at Clairton, l a., and so operations must l>e cut a* much as 38 percent on blast furnaces.
