Webster Makes Sizzling Demand For
Release Of Commandeered Fuel
Several Iowa Towns Short OF Fuel.

Des Moines. Nov. 6.--Iowa coal op-
orators will stand ready to arbitrate
any differences with their employees II
the latter will return to work. Reso-
lutions to that effect were adopted a.
a meeting here yesterday of operators
The resolution said the operators
stand ready to negotiate or arbitrate
any differences between their en-
ployes or the United Mine Workers Of
America provided the miners go back
to work." ~
The operators estimated there were
a number of small wagon mines, farm
er owned, producing coal in Iowa, out
in most cases the coal this mined Is
used Tor the families producing it.
Iowa's coal production is already
16S,0OO tons less than 1t would have
been had there been no strike.
About 5000 tons OF emergency coal
became available in Des Moines when
released by the railroad regionaf d.
rector. Charles Webster has. before
him appeals from small cities for fuel,
in which city officials said If coal was
not released it would be taken from
cars found In the railroad yards.
Wehster's Sizzling Demand.
Charles Webster, fuel administrator
for Iowa. in his telegram to Walker
ID. Hines, director general Of railroads.
In which he said Iowa officials will
endeavor to find means to obtain coal
unless some Of that confiscated by
railroads Is released quickly. He said:
Il have great respect for your
Judgment and fairness, but believe
tyou do not understand the true sit
uation in Iowa. This emergency COM
pels mo to speak plainly. i am au-
thorized by the governor to say that
unless quick action can be taken In
releasing coal, which in our judg-
ment Is necessary, we shall endeavor
to find some means to obtain the
property belonging to the citizens OF
this state. z.,
"We do not believe there is any
law in peace times that will deprive
the citizens of the state of Iowa OF
heat, water, health. and happiness in
order that the railroad administration
may be allowed to run luxurious Call
fornia trains over the state and cons
tinent." .'.. b.. -
Appeals for assistance to obtain
coal from many cities and communi-
ties in the state continued to pour into
Mr.. Webster's office today. In many
places the situation Is approaching
conditions which will result In much
suffering, the appeals say. .
Word was received here today that
two mines in the/stat were operat-
ing again and selling coal. Ono was
said to be near Corning and one near
Rippey. The owners are not members
Of the state operators association, 1t
