Who Will Strike?

Will there be a suspension of anthracite mining on September 1? Everything depends on who will strike. If operators and miners do not reach a new agreement by that date there will be a "suspension of work," a sort of mutual strike. If the public " strikes " by refusing to buy anthracite, the miners and operators may be frightened from their strike. If President Coolidge "strikes" as the late Theodore Roosevelt did in 1902, no suspension of mining is likely. Who will strike first? Who will strike hardest?
