 When the coal situation comes be- | fore the cabinet tomorrow, sharp diff <, ference of opinion between some members is expected. Representatives of the operators have made the claim

 ever they asked in order to get them back to work.
 Other cabinet members. it was said,
 feared the effect of big dage ad- vance might have on the efforts of the government to reduce the cost of liv-

 would strengthen the demands of rail-
 road employees and ,other workers for
 more pay, and in many ways disturb
 the industrial situation, according to
 one view.

7'ashincton. Nov. 24.-settlement of

Washington. Nov. 24-Settlement of the contrevcrsy over new wage agfearnent in the biruminous coal in 6ostg tonight awaited action by President Wilson's cabinet.
 Fuel Administrator Garfield, speak i.-S to the joint wage scale comm ttsea os4 operators and miners, announced ffve principles which have governed Sim and. his associates. but different fs.serpre iaSioIlss were placed upon it's SS~ioas p-5visiors by the workers and ufiIle opusrs at informal discussions kst-f the meeting.
 D-, Gasiield called the miners and operators together after lengthy eonfereace wish Attorney General Iszlrler. Director General Hines and Assistant Attorney General .Ames.
 At The meeting of the cabinet to- morrow definite decision of policy regarding all phases of the strike sit uatloa ls expected, and if the cabinet ia n disagreement the whole question may be put before the president.
 Owing to the disagreement which Lad arisen as to the amount of the increase in the cost of living. and cansequertly the percent of wage ad- vance 10 meet higher living cost. great significance was attached to Dr. Gar fields declaration that "the average to.ai increase in pay over the 1913 base. which was the base considered in 1s1T, should not exceed the present increase in the cost of living over the same base" C.
 It is also to be considered that the cost ot living will fall rather than rise during the next few years" he added
 
 Operators construed this statement as in conflict with the contention of Secre.Rry Wilson that miners should be given a 3i percent wage advance tn equalize the margin between pres eni wages and 79 percent rise in liv- ing cos. since 1914.
 Pointing out that war time coa prices were fixed for, the purpose .ot stimulatlfig production, Dr. Garfield declared that the public would not now pay the increase over norma profits allowed during the war. His further statement that any wage in drease' should he born by the opera tors Or tJe public or both was gen. eT71lly taken to mean that part of the advance sinust come out of the ex- rass r-gits of the mining eornpa anies
 The five principles announced by b1. Garfield were.
