"The governments plan may sound
rather harsh." said high official to-
day "but this Is a harsh situation.

"PeriI to the Public"
"A coal strike of the proportions con-
templated would endanger the health
and life ofSall the people. The miners
have said they would not arbitrate, but
would strike. The government says
that is a crime, and must be prevented

What are the provisions OF wartime
legislation under which the men who
participate in the strike might be pros
ecuted? There are several, but the
principal provisions are contained In
the food and fuel act.
Strong Penalty Provided.

For violation of this section there is
a fine not exceeding $4,000 or impris-
onment not exceeding two years, or
both. There are other sections Of this
law providing for further protection of
the distribution Of supplies and also
giving government authority to take
over the mines. but under the section
quoted it Is held by the administration
to be unlawful for the miners to strike
and thus restrict the production and
supply of coal.
Prepare to Guard Workers.
| The government Is preparing to give
complete protection to miners who re-
main at work or who may be induced
to replace strikers, by policing alfmin-
ing districts with federal troops. Sec
retary Baker and officers OF the army
have been working out details for this
for several days. Troops and equip

These men face the task Of direct
ing more than 400, 900 members OF
xhe union in the first strike ever
called in the bituminous region and
the first coal strike since the big
anthracite strike In 1902. The pres
sure Of the governments order
against the strike was being felt,
but officials were puzzled as to
means which they might use to
meet the demands OF the admini-
stration. 1t was pointed out that
the scale committee in convention
at Philadelphia acted in accordance
with the instructions Of the nation
al convention which met at Cleve-
land. Whether the executive coun-
ell, which has interim powers be-
tween conventions. might attempt
to override ths decision OF the

bylaws revealed that leaders have
power to call off the strike or order

Hope was expressed in official quar-
ters that the strike set for Saturday
would be postponed ii not called off.
Announcement that John L. Lewis had
summoned members OF the full scale
committee to meet the international
executive board at Indianapolis to-
morrow was accepted as an indication
that President Wilson's demand to the
miners organization not to plunge the
country into Industrial chaos might be
needed.
In full belief that officials Of the in-
ternational body who ordered the strike
have power to stop it, government Of
ficials awaited the next step which
must come from the miners. Reports
from the central coal fields indicated
that not all Of the mining army would
quit work. Steps to be taken by the
government to deal with the strike II
II takes place will be considered to-
day by the cabinet. Meanwhile the

T,po Weeks May Be Needed
to Finish Setting Up Plane.

Men labored yesterday moving the
hull Of the transatlantic seaplane NC-4
from a motor truck to the sheep mead
ows Of Central Park, where It will be on
exhibition for a week after It Is assem-
bled. Ensign c. J. oConpor. who was
In charge Of the base crew for the trans
atlantic fi,ers at Halifax. and Is at pres
ent in charge Of assembling the NC-4.
said ten days or perhaps two weeks
would be necessary for setting up the
plane.
The NC-4 will be set UP in a space
roped or on the meadows, opposite Six
ty-r!nth street. Many persons gathered
outside the Enclosure or sat on the grass
yesterday watching the men sent from
the mine layer Aroostook and the Rock
away naval air station hauling the ship
from the truck TO the ground.
None OF tho workmen seemed to think
the seaplane would be assembled this
week. One OF the planes Is torn and
has to be fixed: nuts and other small
parts are missing.
The exhibition will be In charge OF
Lieut.. David A Mount. aid for aviation
at the Third Naval District. Forty men
from the receiving ship at Bay Ridge
will guard the seaplane while II Is on ex-
hibiton, after which It will be taken
apart and sent to the Smithsonian In
