was that President Carrsnza was In

the information that the |. W. W. had

throwing the clergy, capitalists and
bourgeoisie, and that the chief Of the

USE OF FUEL STILL UNDER
DRASTIC BAN, PUBLIC TOLD
Back to Normal Soon, is Belief, but
Coal Must Be Conserved Despite
End Of Miners Strike

/ Washington, Dec. II. Expression
of government officials of satisfaction
and relief at the settlement of the ma
nationwide strike of bituninous Goa
miners We're coupled last night witt
warnings to the American people thai
relaxations on the consumption of coal
must not be expected.
| President Wilson, it was said at the
White House last night, will appoint
the three members of the commission
to investigate coal miners wages and
working conditions, as soon as Attor-
ney General Palmer returns from In
dianapolis. There were limitations
that Mr.. Wilson had already made his
selections for appointment.
Fuel Administrator Garfield an
nounced that immediate removal of
regulations on soft coal consumption
was not to be considered
Director General Hines. in a formal
statement, asserted that the disloca-
ton created by the strike could not
be remedied instantly The public, Mr.
Hines said, will be expected to con-
time conserving fuel until normal
conditions are restored. but Just as
soon as practicable restrictions will
be reseinded or modified.
"As a preliminary to bringing back
normal conditions" said the director
general, coal mined will be allowed
to run as billed, except that the tide |
water and export embargo will con-
tinue; orders placed for coal to west |
arn regions from Pocahontas and AL |
egheney regions will be cancelled. but !
coal billed on these orders .,rior to can
collation. will be permitted to go and |
will be expedited so that cars can be
released for mines"

Work Of Commission Will Result in
Increased Price of Coal to Con-
sumers Of the Country

Washington The resigna
ton of DIR. Ii. field, fuel ad
ministrator, is sne hands of Presi
Asnnt< Wilson, git-,.n because he disa
on the priE pie of the Goa
Ase settlement proposal arranged By
.s.he government and the mine workers
union.
DIR. Garfield himself refused last
night to confirm, deny or discuss the
report, but at the White House it was
held that personal letter from him
had been transmitted to the president
yesterday afternoon.
Men close to the fuel administrator
understand that he believes the work
of the commission authorized under
the settlement, to be made up of one
coal mine operator, a coal miner and
third person named to represent the
public, will result in an increase in the
price of coal to the consuming pub
lic Dr. Garfield has been unal-
terably opposed to this form of settle
ment. 1t has been learned on good
authority that he took no part in the
negotiations with the mine workers
union chiefs during the last week and
that though Informed and consulted,
on their Invitation. the terms as finally
accepted contravene his conception of
the main principle involved.
1t was recalled in connection with
the resignation that in suggesting a |
ID per cent wage increase as fair |
for the miners and possible to be |
paid from present profits of mine own
ers, DR. Garfield suggested commits
sion representative of the industry to
review findings, but expressed the con-
victien that such q body should not
have powers to fix prices. His belief
is said to be that with this power
granted, a combination of the employer
and employee in the industry TO mule
he public by price raises is certain to
-esult.
