WASHINGTON. March 26.-The call
for the caucus of house Democrats to
consider a naval program was issued
today but the situation was compli-
Gated by the inclusion in the call of
consideration of a public buildings
measure. The caucus is set for We'd

pected.
The agreement to include public
buildings was reached after careful
consideration by house leaders. 4 ma
jority of the house is opposed to the
passage of another pork barrell''
measure at this session. This senti-
ment was crystallized by the passage
of the river and harbor bill, and eff
forts were made then TO head off the
public buildings advocates by taking
care of. them so far as possible in the
waterways legislation
It is generally expected that the ma
val program as outlined by Represent

adopted by the caucus. This program

HARD COAL DECISION
WILL MIX THINGS UP
Supreme Court Decision Is
Pending and Complexities
Trouble In America
cBy Associated Press. }

WASHINGTON. March 26.-with tho
world awaiting to see if the American
coal mines are to be closed by gem
eral strike, the supreme court of the
United states next Monday may con-
tribute to the situation by announcing
its decision in the hard COAL case.
Most of the other long-standnins
cases of difficulty have been decided,
leaving the court almost free during
the present recess to devote itself to
solving the intricate problems involved
in the suit of the government to dis
solve the alleged illegal combination of
railroads and their subsidiary coal
companies in Pennsylvania anthracite
regions.
For its effect upon the present diff
culties. the so-called SO per cent con-
tracts" of the railroad" coal COM
panies with the independent" anthra-
cite operators will be watched probably
more closely than any other feature OF
the governments suit. Under these
contracts, the railroad coal com
panies take the output of the indie
pendent" operators at So per cent or
the price of coal at tidewater. These
contracts were entered into during the
last anthracite coal strike. The indie
pendent" operators are reported 10
have declined to agree then to the de-
mand of the miners for increased
wages unless the railroad" coal COM
panies increased the amount previously
paid them for the output of their
mines This finally was done. By some
II is said the independents would de-
cline to grant a further increase of
wages if these everlasting IS per
cents" are held valid. If they are held
invalid, uncertainty OF disposing OF
coal might likewise complicate negotia-
lions. Dissolution of several combina-
tions in transporting and mining an
thracite coal might furnish other COM
plications at the conference between
the operators and miners over hours
and wages.
