1t was r. Truxtun Hare, one of the
greatest football players ever to enter
tain on the ribbed sward, and DIR. Carl

renewing relations with the big three.
Before the evening was over all of the
twenty four Penn celebrities present

= Operators Views Stated.
Thomas Z. Brewster. chairman Of
the operators scale, committee, issued
a statement last night also before.
President Wilson's statement was made
public. saying: -.
Throughout the negotiations which
ended with the refusal OF the mine
proposal the, operators have been
deeply conscious of their responsible
tiles and sincerely responsive to all ef-
forts and suggestions that might pre-
vent the threatened strike. -
THE miners leaders have said again
and again that nothing could stop a
general strike but unconditional ac-
ceptance of their demands. The opera
tors belfve acceptance, of these de-
mandS would not only wreck the coal
mining industry, but threaten ma
tional breakdown of basic industrial
standards and relationships. In the
face of these demands the operators.
therefore, have consistently stood out
for the recognition of three cardinal
points, the maintenance of which they
consider even more vital to general
public welfare than to the interests of
the operators themselves.
First. the continuation OF coal
production during negotiations.
Second. recognition OF the existing
wage contract and its observance to
it's legal termination.
Third, the operators believe that
the public is vitality Interested in
the production of sufficient coal to
meet its needs at the lowest. pos
sible cost. The miners demand for
a reduction of working. time at the
mines below the standard forty
eight-hour week, now in effect,
would greatly reduce production and
greatly increase the cost, and conse-
quently the price, of coal
up to Friday the operators have
expressed their willingness to nego-
bitrate all the other demands made
by the miners except the three fore
going"
! Referring to President Wilson's
, message to Secretary Wilson yester-
day. saying to both operators and
II Is a uuty tndt Iney owe
society to make an earnest effort to
negotiate these differences and to
keep the mines of our country in opera
! tion, Mr.. Brewster said:
The operators recognized President
wilson's letter as command from
| the chief executive of the nation
This command itself provides as q
main objective for continuous opera
| ton of the mines during negotiations
or arbitration, the first and most i'm
portant point for which the operators
have contended at all times. Under
| the circumstances the operators de-
| cided that there was no proper course
| but to accept the Presidents pro.
posal without reservations and there.
| upon informed the Secretary Of Labor
OF their acceptance.
| THE operators still hold Themselves
| and their properties ready and willing

way which may be evolved as a solu.
