SAY LABOR WILL PRESERVE RIGHT.
 T0 GALL STRIKES
Republican A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON Oct. 25-Organized labor intends to preserve the right to strike, officials of the American Fed eration of Labor said today in warn ing that passage in the congress of the anti-strike legislation proposed in the pending railroad bill would result in an immediate waIkout all over the country.
 William Johnston, of the Interna- tional Association of Machinists. sec- ond largest union affiliated with the federation, said direct action might be resorted to if all other means of advancing the interests of the union failed. He referred. particularly to what he termed the efforts of em- ployers to shut out unions by binding their workers with individual con- tracts. MT. Johnston announced that with the passage of the anti-strike legislation. he would order immedi- ately a vote on strike of the 350,000 members of his association and pre- dicted that the heads of the other 112 international unions in the American Federation of Labor would take sim liar action.
 It was said today that this legis- lation was one of the principal reasons why the heads of the unions in the federation were to be summoned here for a conference in the near future.
 Officials of the fobr railroad brother hoods conferred today with Samuel Gompers, president and other officers of the federation.
 Present at the conference also were representatives of the following farm CTS organizations:
 The National Board of Farm Organ izations, the Federation of Milk Pro- ducers, the American Society of Equity and the National Farmers Union. MT. Gompers issued the following statement at the conclusion of the meeting:
 General discussion ensued regarding the legislation pending in congress inimical to the rights and interests of industrial and agricultural workers
 Tt was decided that the call for the conference determined upon by the executive council of the American Fed eration of Labor. should be jointly is- sued by the executive council of tho American Federation of Labor and the railroad brotherhoods.
 Tt was decided that the conference should take place in Washington, Sat urday, December 13.
 "The representatives of the farm. CTS organizations although in entir' sympathy with the purposes, stated that they had no authority from thei organization to join in the call for tht conference, but that their convention: which would be held within a montf from now would be glad to receiv, invitations upon which to act and SC. feet delegates for the December I conference"

Wilson Reviews Situation


 The presidents statement was issued tonight after his cabinet had gone over the entire situation with Secre- tary Wilson of the labor department, whose efforts to bring miners and op- orators together in negotiations had failed. The cabinet, with only Secre tary Lansing detained at his home by illness, meeting first in the morning and then tonight. Rear Admiral Gray son, the presidents personal physician, was summoned to the evening session. Apparently he agreed to the submis- sion of the matter to his patient for afterwards the cabinet meeting broke up and the presidents statement was issued.
 The president reviewed the steps leading up to the strike call, including the Cleveland convention of the United Mine Workers of America one month ago, at which the demands for a 3U hour week and a 60 per cent increase in wages were formulated. The war in itself, the president asserted, was still fact, peace negotiations still in suspense and troops still being trans ported. Because of these factors and the added considerable victims of the strikes would be among the rich and poor of the nation, the president said the proposed walkout could only be considered as unlawful, and as the nations executive entrusted the en- forcement of the law, he would use the means at his disposal to prevent any stoppage of work
 Ready to Aid in Settlement
 The services of the government as a mediator, offered yesterday by the president through Secretary Wilson, but not accepted, were again held out, the president declaring that he held himself in readiness at the request of either or both sides to appoint com mission to investigate the situation to effect an orderly settlement of dis l puted questions with due recognition l of the rights of the miners, the oper- ators and the public
 There was no direct intimation of what steps the cabinet had discussed to prevent stoppage of work until the presidents solemn warning to the miners to rescind the strike order fail of result. It was regarded as signi- l ficant however, that attention was drawn in white house circles to the statements made by Secretary Baker in a recent address in Cleveland when Baker announced that department commanders had been directed to fur nish troops at the request of govern ors without referring the matter to Washington. Major General Wood in the central department, has already exercised that same authority in the steel strike situation.

 Local authorities are anticipating serious trouble tomorrow when the shifts change at the United Alloy Stee corporations plants, and they feal the humor of the strikers may have been aggravated by the mobilization O state troops.

WILSON'S VIEWS ON
 PROPOSED STRIKE Of Soft Coal Miners
rRepubIIcan A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25-President Wilson issued a formal statement to- night with the approval of the full membership of his cabinet declaring the projected strike of bituminous coal miners under present circumstances mot only unjustifiable, it is unlawful
 The Official Statement
 The presidents statement follows:
 On September 23 1919, the conven- tion of the United Mine Workers of America, at Cleveland, Ohio, adopted a proposal declaring that all contracts in the bituminous field shall be de- clared as having automatically expired November 1, 1919, and making various demands including a sixty per cent in- crease in wages and the adoption of a six hour work day and a five day week, and providing that, in the event a satisfactory agreement should not be secured for the central competitive field before Nov. 1, 1919. the national officials should be authorized to call general strike of all bituminous mines and mine workers throughout the United States effective Nov. 1, 1919
 Pursuant to these instructions, the officers of the organization have is- sued a call to make the strike effec- tive November 1. This is one of the gravest steps every proposed in this country affecting the economic vel fare and the domestic comfort and health of the people. It is proposed to abrogate an agreement as to wages which was made with the sanction of the United States fuel administration and which was to run during the con tinuance of the war. but not beyond April l, 1920. This strike is proposed at a time when the government is making the most earnest effort to re- duce the cost of living and has ap. pealed with success to other classes oi workers to postpone similar disputes until a reasonable opportunity has beer 1 afforded for dealing with the cost o1 living. It is recognized that the strike would practically shut off the country's supply of it's principal fuel at time when interference with that supply is calculated to create disastrous fue | famine. All interests would be af. | fected by a strike of this character and it's victims would be not the ricf only but the poor and the needy as i well-those least able to provide il 1 advance fuel supply for domestic use
 It would involve the shutting down O | countless industries and the throw. | ing out of employment a large number
 of the workers of the country, | would involve stopping the operation | of railroads, electric light and gas l plants, stret railroad lines and other | public utilities and the shipping to anC from this country thus preventing us | giving aid to the allied countries witt l Continued On Page Two)
