Operators in Colorado Ob- ject to Final Adjustment of Disputes by the Fed
 eral Commission

Denver September 22.-The Colorado Fuel and Iron company in letter to President Wilson, made public tonight, expressed unwillingness to re-employ all strikers who have not been convicted of | crime, suggested in the three-year truce proposal prepared by Hywel Davies and William R, Fairley, mediators ap- pointed by the Secretary of Labor in an effort to end the Colorado coal miners strike
 The corporation also objected to the final adjudication of disputes by fed eral grievance commission in the manner suggested by the mediators The letter was signed by J. F. welborn, president of the company, who plans to discuss the strike problem with President Wilson at Washington tomorrow.
 Accepted Truce Plan
 At a convention held at Trinidad last week tho union coal miners of Colorado accepted the truce plan without amend ment The letter signed by MT. Welborn was the individual reply of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company to the letter from President Wilson urging adoption of the | truce plan. Other operators, it was an- nounced, would unite in separate letter which would be sent to the President by mail
 President Welborn's letter to the Presi- dent said in part:
 ] ''You will understand that a great deal of i'll feeling has been cngendered between some of the men who quit and those who
 have remained at or returned to work We are sure you would not urge that we re- | instate former employees who although
 not actually found guilty of violating the | laws, have to our knowledge given overt i indications of hostility toward our men. l The inside of coal mine Is at best attend | ed with hazards not common to other | operations. 1t is. therefore peculiarly a l place Where we should not assign men l pcaCeaDly inclined to work alongside of 1 men who have been instructed to aecomp- iish ileir ends, if necessary by violent l means and who are now restrained by l nothing more than an agreement by their
