Appeal and Conditions To Be
Made Public Tonight In
City Of Rome
WOULD RESTORE STATES
AND ADJUST TERRITORY
Experts See influence Of Aus
hia in MOve---War VIII
Last Another Year
(By John H. Hearley)

Omitted PSess Staff Correspondent)
Rome, Aug. 14.-Specific and concrete
conditions which His Holiness Pope
Benedict believes may form the basis
of world peace, have been forwarded to
the rulers of all nations.
The pope, in outlining these condi-
tions, made n new and general appeal
for the, restoration of peace.
The appeal is addressed to all neu-
trails as well as the belligerents. 1t is
understood 10 be somewhat general in
form but of such nature as to form
the groundwork for more detailed dis
cussion.
The desire Of His Holiness, in pre-
senting the general conditions is under
stood to be to furnish some common
ground for discussion through a prelim-
mary understanding.
The appeal of the pope, together with
the conditions he has presented for con-
sideration of the world, are to be pub
lished tonight in the Observatore Ro-
mano, the official organ of the vati-
can.
Broadly, it is understood, the condi-
tions proposed by the pope include the
restoration of all conquered independ-
ent states, and an anicable adjustment
Of control Of all territory in dispute, or
likely to afford cause for future wars.
Restoration Of all conquered inde
pendent states would include Belgium,
Rumania and Serbia Adjustment of
control of territory in dispute, or Of
fering possibilities for cause of wars
in the future would include Alsace-Lor-
raine and Poland and the territory, in
cluding Trieste and Trent, which has
long been the cause of hostile feeling
between Austria and Italy. Discussion
of the disposition of such territories,
would of necessity cover great deal
of ground and would undoubtedly grow
to the point of discussion of disposition
of conquered colonial possessions.

opera+ors Warned


Chicago, Aug. 14-Uncle Sam has
taken hand in the Illinois coal sltu-
ation.
This was learned today when 1t be-
came known that coal operators have
received warning from Washington
that it might be necessary for the gov
ernment to interfere through fear OF
q complications which might result
from any action by the Illinois defense
council, The spreading Illinois coal
mine strike is said to have alarmed
Washington.
Operators declare this is just what
they want-federal control of sthe
mines.
"Unless something is done within
the next few days 10 allay publicity al
ready given, within a week Illinois
coal mines will be flat idle, said a
high official of the Illinois Coal Op-
era tors association today.
Complete idleness of the Illinois
mines would mean 10000 men would
he out and close to 100000 tons Of coal
a day tied up. ,
not only of Illinois, but throughout
the country, is what they have been
fighting for.
Will Fix Prices
DIR. F. c. Honnold, secretary of the
Illinois operators, declared today thaI
federal control has been urged upon
the state defense council but that II
refused the suggestion.
IT must be borne in mind that the
problem of determining coal prices Is,
Of necessity, one for the federal gov
ernment,v saws a statement, which the
operators claim they submitted to the
defense council. Twenty per cent OF
the coal used in Illinois comes from
indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and 9th
err eastern states. In turn, Illinois nor
maliy moves a large part OF lts ton
mage into a dozen or more neighoorlng
states. IL is now confronted with re-
ouests for coal from outside the state,
which, if provided, would absorb thirty
or more per cent of the tonnage produc-
ed between now and next April.
The competitive conditions of the
Illinois operators are almost en5ireiy
based on interstate conditions ana al
justments.
The operators attitude today was
mot very friendly toward state fixing
of prices. They will not say they Will
refuse to accept a price fixed by Jus
tiee Carter, fuel dictator, but will take
that matter up tomorroT at meeting
Of coal operators to discuss the appoint
ment Of committee to act with Car
ter.

IA vast Business

Chicago, Aug. 14-Federal control
of coal mines would place close to s0O,.
900 miners in Uncle Sam s employ and
would give the government supervis'
ion over the production of more than
600 100000 tons of coal, according to
statistics furnished the United Press
tdaay by the Illinois coal operators
association.
The latest complete figures SHOW
that in 1914 the number of miners en-
ployed in the twenty coal producing
states was 1853, This figure has in
creased to slightly over 100000, opera
tors say.
The total coal output, according to
1916 statistics was 597 ,374,0OO tons,
more than one third of which is pro-
duced in Pennsylvania mines. West
Virginia ranks second as the biggest
coal producing state and Illinois third.
