TO ESTABLISH ILLEGALITY
Nv Associated Press

Washington, October 29.-The gov
eminent will establish the Illegally"
of the strike of coal miners without
in any way impairing the general right
to strike" as the general right to
strike is not in issue in any sense what
ever in the present situation" it was
declared in a statement issued tonight
after a conference in the office of At
torney General Palmer at which he
discussed the situation with Secretary
Wilson, Director General Hines Secre-
tary Tumulty and Assistant Attorney
Generals Ames and Garvan.
The statement which y was SAID
fully represents the attitude of the
government, declared that the impend-
ing coal strike "was ordered in a man
ner for a purpose and with necessary
effect, which taken together, put 1t
outside the pale of the law
The government will act in the strike
under the provisions of the Lever food
control act enacted as war measure
but still in force.
The position of the government in the
impending coal strike was announced
tonight by Attorney General Palmer as
follows:
There can be no doubt that the
government has the power in the pub
lie interest, under the law, to deal with
the projected strike of the bituminous
coal miners, without infringing upon
the recognized right of men in any
line of industry to work when they
please and quit work when they please
GOVERNMENTS POSITION
The illegality of this strike can and
will be established without in any
way iinparing the general right tc
strike, and the general right to strike is
not in issue in any sense whatever In
the present situation. This is true be-
cause the circumstances differentiate
| this case from the case of any other
strike that has even taken place in the
| country. 1t does not follow that every
| strike is lawful merely because the
right to strike is recognized to exist
| Every case must stand upon its own
bottom and be governed by its own
facts Therefore when the president
| said in his statement last Saturday tha'
| such a strike in such circumstances
| is not only unjustifiable but unlawful
reference was had only to the condi-
| tions in the impending situation.
| THE proposed strike was ordered
! in a manner, for purpose and with
| a necessary effect which taken to-
| gether put it outside the pale of the
| law. After the war began, the produc-
! ton of fuel was regarded as one Oh
| the subjects of such peculiar puoEc
importance as to justify special stat
utory enactpent.
| .-The fuel administration was created
| to SUPERVISE the subject and matters
| of wages as well as prices were con-
| sidered and sanctioned by the fuel al

ANTI-SAL0ON SESSIONS HERE.

Proposed legislation to insure en-
forcement of prohibition laws is to be
a prominent feature in the discussions
at the nineteenth national convention
of the Anti-Saloon League Of Amer

nounced that little consideration
probably will be given to the oues-
ton of repeal by Congress of war
time prohibition laws. as league lead
ers do not believe Congress will seri-
ously consider such action.
The convention probably will give
much attention to the various activi
ties having to do with plans for car
rying out the provisions of the ma
tionwide prohibition law throughout
the country after January Is next
