 "T am in the engine service on the railroad running between Van Buren and Coffeyville, 166 miles. My exper- fence is just the same as that of Harry M. Williams. I only wish we could prevent these accidents. But when those heavy trains are running at high rate of speed our hands are tied, so to speak, and we are as help less as can be. only wish that auto drivers could understand our position and conditions when they undertake to cross the track ahead of a train travelling 35 miles an hour, covering a fraction over 50 feet second"

SFNATE AND HOUSE CONSIDER { STRIKES
c.nator FreIinghuysen Declares 0' Striking Frenzy Must Be Halt ed-Demands of Miners Char scterized @ as 'sInordinate."

Washington, Oct. 2l-Settiement or ..a controversy between bituminous m .;,eys and operators without strike m within the range of possibility" peoresentative Sanders, Republican, Indiana, declared in speech in the uo,,se today. His district is in the a.nter of the Indiana coal field.
 aFor over quarter of a century," ss;d Representative Sanders, the Irnited Mine Workers of America hove bv means of collective bargain mo with the operators, made ami eable agreements for the production of coal. fair and beneficial alike to the operators, the miners and the public. The machinery for adjusting disputes, including the present one, is still in- tact In the past they have bargained and comprised and used good supply of common sense on both sides"
 Replying to the Indiana member, Representative Blanton, Democrat, Texas. asserted that great loss in production of coal would result from granting of the miners demands, and that loss of production in industry generally added to the cost of living burden.
 Nearly dozen senators joined in the strike discussion in the Senate and most of them expressed the opin- ion that while the miners demands were submitted only to the operators in the central competitive region in Pennsylvania and the middle west, the strike would be nationwide.
 Senator Ponerene, Democrat, Ohio, said that heretofore the question of a strike had been decided by vote of the workers, but that in this case the Cleveland convention of miners dele gates decided it.
 Senator Frelinghuysen, chairman of the Senate committee Investigating the coal strike, started the discussion by denouncing trade unionism under its present leadership as "new au- tocracy" tending towards Bolshevism.
 This view apparently was reflected by John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America, who stated when the conference recessed for luncheon that he saw no reason to change his original position that the strike would become effective unless all of the union demands were met.
 The New Jersey senator said the demands of the miners, half of them aliens, were "inordinate" and could not be granted as they would result Tn decreased production and an in- crease in price to the consumer of from $2 to $2.5O a ton.
