FORECAST NEXT YEAR

(By William Hardcastle);

Washington, Nov. 20.*.

A new world famine crisis and widespread star- vation were today forecast for next spring by a reliable, and expert authority here in the impending United States, coal strike and the resulting restrictions onerall transporti are prolonged.

This authority described the effect of a prolonged coal strike on America's contribution to the world food supplies as "awful," pointing out that America was the most important contri- butor. Tonight's reports from American coal- fields left little doubt that virtually all soft coal mines would be on strike by tomorrow when the current wage contract will have ex- piréd.

Press reports here today: say that. "Administration sources are expressing concern over the pro- spect of being involved in a pro- longed coart battle.

President Truman, now an. holiday in Florida, is stated by his aides to be "very pleased with the support, which his action JB the labour dispute has received so far.
