move TO PREVENT
STRIKE OF MINERS
CABINET TO TAKE STEPS TO
AVERT NATIONWIDE WALK
OUT OF COAL WORKERS.
Representatives Of the Workers and
the Operators invited to Get
mo, Together and Find Some
Solution of Problem.

Washington.-Imm steps to
avert the threatened nationwide strike
of bitumin0us coal mine workers are
to be taken by the federal government.
After President Wilson's cabinet had
discussed the situation at length on
Tuesday, Secretary Wilson of the de-
partment of labor announced that he
would invite John L. Lewis, president
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea, and John L. Brewster, represent
ing the operators, to confer with him
here. ee7ilf KS laAu9fa3 I'd ba s3fst
While efforts Of the miners and OPP
orators to reach an agreement on the
demands Of the workers, which in
clude increased pay and shorter hours,
have failed, Secretary Wilson is hope
full that some amicable adjustment Of
the controversy can be made. 1t is
understood that he will impress upon
both Mr.. Lewis and Mr.. Brewster the
importance of uninterrupted operation
of the mines upon the life of the ma
ton.
The possible effect of such a strike
on the railroads, is understood to be
upperinost in the minds Of government
officials. A shutdown of the mines
would result in paralysis of the
transportation system within a short
time, with consequent. suffering over
The country because Of the shutting off
Of populous centers from food supplies.
Industry also would be brought to a
standstill, with public utilities stopped
and shipping tied up. 42s W ~

ment as to whether the high schools
are likely to injure the elementary
schools by taking the pupils away
till there will not be enough left TO
have a school. The high schools will
not do this. On the other hand they
will aid the elementary schools by
causing the pupils to remcin longer
in the elementary schools so they
may go into the higher studies. I'm
lees we have high schools our ele-
mentary schools will sooner or later
become poorer end weaker.
There are fow elementary schools
that have ceased to be, not on ac-
count of the high schools, but on ac-
count of the fact that there are too
few pupils to maintain . school. This
would have occurred if there had
been no high school. Let all of us
