Christopher, president of the Packard Motor Co., said the strike would fofce most automobile industries to shut down within 10 days or two weeks. Meanwhile, the, civilian production administration was prepared to issue orders and recommendations today for conservation of coal by public utilities. One order would require coal consuming electrical plants to pool their power. State power commissions would be asked to enforce any conservation measures, such as dimouts of advertising signs, Cutoffs Requested

OPA also expected to ask manufacturers of gas to conserve by halting distribution to consumers whose contracts did not forbid such | cutoffs. _ It was was expected that eastern tern gas

And though no immediate layoffs were anticipated, working hours were scheduled to be reduced. Mills Bank Furnaces Also In the Calumet Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. shut down two furnaces yesterday, one at Indiana Harbor and another in South Chicago. Reynolds Metal Co, Gary, reported operations might ' have to be suspended next week if steel production suffers further cuts. Elsewhere in the state, industries were reporting growing difficulties in the face of the coal shutdown. In Indianapolis the coal supplies on hand were reported adequate for more than a month. Citizens’ Gas and Coke utility reported stock piles for 24 days or more. Indianapolis Power & Light Co. supplies were reported adequate for nearly 60 days of normal operation, Stocks of coal in the hands of retailers — stocks which will keep residential furnaces going — were variously estimated at from six weeks to two months supply.

nition for' immediate use against the coal strike beyond the legal pressure it was putting on Mr. Lewis, Following through on Monday's restraining order, which Mr, Lewis ignored, the justice department yesterday persuaded Judge Goldsborough to cite the U, M, W. president for contempt. The restraining order had required Mr. Lewis to revoke the contract termination notice he had served on the government. The government contended that the union's wage contract with the government was not subject to termination and that the termination notice was in effect a strike call. After Mr, Lewis let the strike deadline pass without action, Assistant Attorney General John F, Sonnett went before Judge Goldsborough to ask that Mr. Lewis be cited for contempt. He filled a petition charging that Mr. Lewis had deliberately disobeyed the restraining order, New Legal Attack Planned Judge Goldsborough ordered Mr. Lewis into court Monday to show cause why he should not be punished for contempt. If he fails to convince the judge then, he will go on trial Wednesday before the judge and an “advisory” jury. The trial time was set for the same hour Judge Goldsborough had fixed for a hearing on the government petition for an injunction against the U. M. W. for alleged breach of contract. Justice department officials expected the two pro"ceedings to be combined. The government was prepared for a legal attack on Mr. Lewis along still another path.
