 by Saturday
By Associated Press

Washington, November 12 The apparent unwillingness o1 all union coal miners to return to work at the old pay scale caused government officials to put forth every effort today to bring about immediate negotia- tions of a new wage agree ment.
 Secretary Wilson, without awaiting for formal acceptance of his offer to me diate the differences, began smoothing the way for the joint conference of miners and opcrtsors he has called to meet In Washington Friday. Both sides notified the labor secretary that they would attend the conference spokesnen for the mine workers said that if the mine owners came in the spirit of con ciliation new agreement could be framed and ratified by Saturday night Until an agreement is formally ac- cepted by the miners scale committee labor leaders said, there is little hone of full resumption of coal production.
 It was because of this possibility and the steady drain meanwhile on the na- tions visible coal supply that Secretary Wilson undertook today to induce some or the miners and operators to see the other fptlou's eida

Complete dis tribution of the order cancelling the strike might take some time. it was said. 1t was felt, however. that a large number of men still might remain out until assured that some of the demands agreed upon in convention would be granted.
 Labor leaders, who have frankly ad mleted that public sentiment was strong

PEACE CONGRESS IN BRIEF

The Supreme Council officially an
nounced that it had reached satisfac-
tory provisional" arrangements deal
ing with the German colonies and the
occupied territories of Turkey in Asia.
The Council decided that the mill
tary representatives of the Allied pow
ers at Versailles should meet and re-
port on the most equitable distribution
of the burden of supplying military
forces to maintain order in Turkey,
pending action by the Peace Confer
ence regarding the government Of
Turkish territory.
The War Council. considering eco
nomic and financial questions and the
subject of raw materials, showed SEN
timent favorable to relaxation of the
blockade so far as 1t concerned South
eastern Europe, including the Balkans
and Austria-Hungary.
Andre Tardieu announced that the
British and French governments had
accepted in principle President VIII
sons plan concerning manufactures
from the League of Nations for the
administration of the former German
colonies. The acceptance, however, is
subject to learning under what condi-
lions the plan will be carried out.
Captain Tardieu stated that this pro-
posal in its practical application was
under examination before the SUI
preme Council. The discussion was
proceeding among all the powers, he
taid, with unanimity of sentiment
and the desire to reach unanimous
agreement. This applied to Japan, as
well as to the other powers. he said
No distinctly American plan is to be
submitted initially to the committee Of
the Peace Conference appointed to
work out the details of the consti-
tuition and function of the League Of
Nations. The American plan is to
occupy receptive position, favoring
such portions of projects advanced as
seem desirable. 1t appears that the
basic plan will be that framed by
Lord Robert Cecil and to be proposed
by Premier Lloyd George An effort
is being made to hurry the League of
Nations plan of organization, but a
report is not expected in time for the
next plenary session of the Peace Con.
terence.
