the coar controversy. The present
contract, which is to run until the
end Of the war, or until April 1, 1920,
was made with the sanction OF the
fuel administration, government
agency. This was pointed out spe-
officially by President Wilson IN his
warming to the miners Saturday as
indicating the government considered
the proposed strike unlawful.
The food control law also gives the
government opportunity to take
hand in the strike through its provi-
sions making 1t Illegal to interfere
with production and allowing the
government to take over mine to
insure continued production.
Even without this law, officials
here point out that the supreme
courts broad definition OF war pow
ers would give the government plen-
ty of latitude for action. In passing
on various war laws, the supreme
court declared that the government
had the power to do almost anything
in the interest of the nations exist
ence.
When the two sides Of the coal
controversy finally get together to
discuss matters, it is expected that
government officials will not allow
negotiations to drag. The miners, IN
previously refusing to call Off their
strike, say that prolonging OF nego-
tiations was the aim of the operators.
While preparing plans for new
Industrial conference to take up the
industrial situation in its broad as
poets, officials here today believed
that a resembling of the coal strike
would go long way toward quietlng
threats of further trouble 1mmeol-
ately.
