Conferees,

At the opening Of the conference
President Roosevelt said: 81 wish tc
call your attention to the fact there
are three parties affected by the situa-
ton in the anthracite trade-the oper-
ators, miners and the general public.
Il speak FOR neither the operators
nor the miners, but for the general
public. The questions at issue which
led to the situation Affect Immediately
the parties commemorative operators
and miners-but the situation itself
vitality affects the public.
AS long as there seemed to be. a
reasonable hope that these matters
could be adjusted between the parties,
it did not seem proper for me to inter-
Vene in any way. | disClaim any right
or duty to intervene in this way upon
legal grounds or upon any ,fiicial rela-
ton | bear TO the situation; but ur-
genCy anu the terrible nature of the
catastrophe impending over a large
portion of our people III the shape of a
winter fuel famine imprls me, after
much anxious thought, to believe my
duty requires me to use whatever in
fluence personally can bring to end a
situation which has econ literally in
tolerable.
Il wish to emphasize The oharacter of
the situation and to say It's gravity is
such hat | am constrained urgently to
insist each one of you realize the heavy
burden of responsibility upon him. We
are upon the threshold of winter with
an already existing coal famine, the
future terrors Of which we can hardly

reaching, so appalling, that it seems to
me you are not only justified in sink
ing, but are required to sink, for the
time being any ~tenacity as 10 your re-
spectiVe claims in the matter at issue

situation imperatively requires that you
meet upon a common plane the neces-
stiles of the public.

Detroit News-Tribune: A business man
who wanted a bookkeeper stated his
need in an advertisement. The notice was
seen by a young woman who was out of
work and who had searched for employ
ment day after day without success. She
had just one cent left. This she spent for
a postal card, on which she wrote a re-
ply to the advertisement, and dropped the
card In a street letter box.
Her application impressed the business
man favorably, and he wrote to her ask
ing her to call at his office. She did so
and secured the position. Her modesty
and worth, no less than her capabilIty, so
won upon her employer that before many
months had passed he offered her his
heart and hand, and she accepted and be-
came his wife.
