Alsace and other notahles and was
eheered BY thousands of the populace

premier went by.
This is one of the greatest days of

Aisatian dialect, which the premier does
not understand. but their resounding
kisses on his weather beaten cheeks
needed no interpreter.

NPER5 SEEKS
BAS|SFOR PEACE
AGAIN At MINES
A, F. L. Head Urges US.
Withdraw Injunction
as Opening Move.
SAYS He IS CERTAIN
WALKOUT CAN Be ENDED

Washington, Nov. 4.-WithdraWal of
the injunction obtained by the govern
ment will open the way for settlement
of the coal strike. Samuel Gompers, pres
sdent of the American Federation of La
Dor, declared in statement tonight
Charging that the injunction was a
gross wrong and a grave blunder. Mr..
Gompers said if it We're vacated and
the miners and operators were brought
into further conference by the depart
ment of labor, he had IAN abiding faith
that mutually honorable adjustment
could be negotiated and affected. where
by the coal strike can be brought to an
end
Fewer Days Means More.
Mr.. Gompers statement was issued
after his return here from New York
ana IN response TO numerous requests
Tor an expression as to chances of
bringing the strike to speedy end. In
1t he said that, for several years the
miners have not had more than a half
years work, their working days average
from LOO to $50 days per wear inter
mitted by day and By weeks employ
ment and then unemployment. II the
miners were permitted By the operators
10 work full time, the supply Of coal
thus mined would soon force anRH the
price Of coal on the market and this the
operators are determined not to permit.
The miners case might be better stated
BY their demanding at least five DAYS of
slx-hours per week. which is really more
than they are permitted to work at the
present time.
Says Court Ban Hampers Peace.
When, in 1914. the miners received
an Increase of 20 cents per ton. the OPP
orators raised the selling price s. per
ton.
The injunction secured by the attor-
ney general could not prevent the strike,
for it was issued after the strike notice
had already gone forth. The Injunction
was not only grave wrong. but Il gross
blunder. 1t practically takes away the
constructive influence of the officers of
the organization and indeed bars them
from attempting TO end the strike IN
stead of conservative leadership pre-.
vailing. it places the whole movement III
the hands of local men. who may vie
with each other and be at variance with
