is taken for granted English owners
will accept. The miners representa-

any reduction OF the federation's
schedule OF rates nor to any scheme
determining the rates without new
ballot OF. the miners.
Therefore, a settlement OF the strike
at the joint conference can be at
tained only II the owners agree to ac-

The most probable outcome of the
conference Is that some basis of agree

Cultivation is practically complete now
