END TO BIG COAL
STRIKE At HAND
FARLEY is AGREED UPON WHICH
MAY RESULT IN A SETTLE
MENT OF DIFFERENCES.
President Wilson Proposes Plan Look
ing to Speedy Termination OF
Strike Situation and Adjustment
of Entire Controversy.

INSTRUMENTATION General Pal
mer announced after midnight Satur-
day that an agreement had been
reached between government officials
and John l.. Lewis, acting president,
and William Green, secretary-treasurer
of the United Mine Workers, under
which proposal for termination OF
the coal strike will be submitted to a
meeting of the executive committee
of the mine workers AT Indianapolis.
The proposal was made by President
Wilson looking to speedy terini-
nation of the strike situation and ad-
justment of the entire controversy.
Attorney General Palmer says. Lewis
and Green will urge acceptance of the
proposal.
The announcement came as COM
plete surprise, as government officials
had not made known the fact that the
union leaders had been called into
conference or that new proposals were
under consideration. The presence of
Lewis and Green in the city was ru'
mored during the day, but could not
be confirmed
The fact that Mr. Palmer talked with
President Wilson in the course Of the
day on the coal situation was known
but no intimation of the nature of the
conference was obtainable either from
Mr.. Palmer, prior to his announce
ment, or at the White House.
When the announcement was made
officials would not comment as to the
nature Of the proposals to be sub
mitted at Indianapolis. The text OF
| the statement, as well as the general
| attitude of government officials, in
| dicated clearly, however, that accept
ance by the miners was anticipated.
The announcement was the more OF
a surprise because of the fact tha
earlier in the night DR.. Garfield, fue
administrator, had declared emphatic
ally there would be no compromise il
the coal strike situation. He added
that while he was in office as fuel ad
ministrator no increase in the price o.
coal to consumers would be permitted
to provide for increased pay for thu
miners. II the IA per cent pay ad
vance suggested by the government
was exceeded, he said, it would hav,
TO be the expense of the mine opera
tors, to be taken from their profits.

Home From Overseas.

Private Willis G. Black, one of sons OF
Mr.. and Mrs oyer Black of this place,
arrived home in Thurmont Thursday OF
last week in the best of health.
Private Black enlisted at Baltimore
December II, 1917 and was sent from
there to various camps throughout the
United States, finally leaving Newport
News March 4th, 1918, for France. He
landed at St. Nazaire, and from there
went to Dion where he remained for
for some time and assisted in the build
ing Aero Fields, etc. From the latter
place his squadron was sent to Clermont
to construct another Aero Field for air
planes and build shelters for them.
This field was only five miles from the
front and was particularly attractive to
German airmen as it was an important
railroad center. 1t was also the closest
to the battlelne for our airman and was
visited by many planes every day. 1t was
while here that Black broke the record
running to cover from Hun bombing
machine. He tells many interesting
regarding his trip abroad.
The vessel which brought him home
left Brest December Goth and landed in
New York January 18th. He received
his discharge at Camp Mills January o..
His brother, Corporal Earle Black is
still doing duty overseas, perhaps in
Germany, as he is attached to the 18th
Division. During his stay in France,
Willis did not see any of the Thurmont
boys.
