GARFIELD DEF|ED BY SOUTHWESTERN ]. MINERS OF COAL Union Representatives Ab- solutely Refuse to Agree to Penalty Clause in
 Contract FUEL ADMINISTRATOR WILL NOT GIVE WAY Recent Advance in Price Will Not Apply in This Field-The Situation
 Looks Serious
By Associated rress

Washington, November 3. Southwestern coal miners rep resentatives defied Fuel Ad- ministrator Garfield here today and refused to agree to the in sertion in a new wage contract of provisions penalizing strikes and lockouts.
 After a secret meeting this morning the miners abruptly broke off negotia- tions with Dr. Garfield and operators representatives and left for their homes this afternoon, announcing they would call general conference of southwestern miners to meet in Kan sas City on November 12 to discuss the situation.
 Food administration officials see possi- biiities that the situation may develop seriously. Sixty mines now are Idle in Kansas and miners throughout the four states involved-Oklahoma. Arkansas, Missouri and Kansas-are threatening to strike unless they are given immediate wage increases
 GARFIELD STANDS FIRM
 No contracts granting wage increases will be approved by the government, Dr. Garfield insists, unless penalty clauses are inserted. Further. Dr. Garfield will not apply to the southwest the recent 45 cents a ton raise in coal prices. which was designed to absorb wage increases until the miners come to terms
 q stand absolutely firm" Dr. Garfield said tonight. "The penalty clause must be put in exactly as indicated. I have nothing to add to that"
 OPERATORS ARE WILLING
 Operators representatives said tonight they would agree to any kind of pen atty provision Dr. Garfield demanded The wage increases they had agreed to give to the men, they said. could not be 45-cent increase in coal prices.
 Wage increases sought by the south- western miners arc based on increases agreed~on recently. by operators and by union heads~in sha central competitive field The central field contract con- taned provisions for automatic penalties and was approved by pr. d field, who recommended to President WI. on the A cents coal price increase.
