rado Fuel and Iron Company, that he
believed it to be the duty OF the oper-
atcrs in Colorado TO accept the basis
fer the settlement of the strike pro.
posed by Federal mediators. Welhorn
told the President that the operators
objected to several points in the plan
but the President asked that they re-

In answer TO the objections of Wei

felt il the duty OF the operators to ac-
cept the plan already adopted by the
miners
The continuance OF Federal troops
in Colorado was discussed and later it
was said the President would with
draw the troops unless a satisfactory
settlement was reached. This was not
verified, however in official quarters.
The President had expected to re-
ceive a committee representing the in
dependent coal operators involved in
the strike. Welborn told him that
the other operators were unable to be
present, but would write. The Presi-
dent asked that Welborn tell the other
operators that he could not accept a
refusal of the plan.
Welborn presented an alternative
plan fer the solution of the strike
trouble, but the President refused to
consider it, saving that he did not be
lieve a compromise possible. The
President declared that the public in
terests demanded the end of the strike
and that it was the patriotic DUTY OF
the mine operator to accept the pro
posal.
Welborn declared after his interview
with the President that the question
was still open and that he would report
the result Of his talk to the other oper-
ators.
