Canada Wants U. s.
 To Supply Box Cars

MONTREAL, Nov 11-Prompt ship ment of 2,5OO Canadian Pacific box cars from the United States to relieve the Canadian shortage is being sought by the dominion government. Refer ring to a Washington announcement that the large number of Canadian cars in the United States was due to the coal strike. the Canadian railway war board asserted today that since the first of the year the average num- Der of Canadian cars in the United States was 45,06T, while the number of United States cars in Canada was 19,925
 The board charges that notwith standing repeated assurances by the United States railroad administration that Canadian cars would be sent home, the movement has been entire ly inadequate.

COAL STRIKE ENDED NEXT STEP OF GOVERNMENT WILL BE TOWARD NEGOT 4 NE W
 WAGE AGREEMENT FOR MINERS
Fresdent Wilson Sends Request Workers and Operators of Every Mine in Country to Meet in Washington Friday to Negotiate Basis of Settement
 Both Said to Have Accepted Proposal;
 Labor Secretary to Preside

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11-Having forced the miners to call off the coal strike, the government set out today to help them negotiate a new wage agreement.
 On the heels of the announcement that federal Judge Anderson at In- dianapolis had approved the order promulgated by the United Mine Workers of America, resembling the strike, Secretary Wilson invited rep resentatives of the miners and opera tors from all the fields involved in the walkout to meet here Friday flor the purpose of negotiating a basis of settlement" The miners accepted.
 MT. Wilson was unofficially ad- vised tonight that the operators would comply with his request. The secretary was assured by operators aRd miners that they would endeavor faithfully to frame wage scale that would send the 425,0O0 miners back to work willingly and at once.
 Thomas T. Brewster, head of the operators association of the central competitive field, who arrived today from St. Louis to take hand in the situation, made public tonight a tele- gram to John l., Lewis, acting presi- dent of the minters' organization, urging prompt resumption of nego- tiations." The massage sent, it was explained, before Secretary Wilson had put his invitation on the wires. made no reference to the labor sec retary as mediator. Brewster sug gested negotiation of "a contract to be in force upon the termination of the contract now in effect without saying when or how this would be determined.
 The secretary of labor will take up his work exactly as II was laid aside two weeks ago, except that no strike threat will hang over the conference. Instead of there being present in the representatives of miners and operators only from the central

TO BE NON-POL|T|CAL
 ORGANIZATION
Convention Votes to Amend Constitution So As to Bar Candidates From Holding
 Office in the Organization

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Nov. H. The first convention of the American Legion today started pronouncement of its policies by adopting a resolu- tion declaring the organization to be "non-political" and demanding the deportation of Victor L. Berger of Milwaukee as "a disloyaI citizen"
 Endorsement of universal military training with small standing army in time of peace was voted enthusi- astically tonight by the Legion con vention. It was recommended that a national citizen army be under local control and administration, subject to general national regulations.
 A stormy session began late today after the Legion had observed Arm istice Day by a parade which ended with presentation of decorations to members of the 151st artillery, com posed largely of Twin City men, at the parade grounds.
 Other important decisions reached today included the selection of In- dianapolis as permanent national headquarters of the Legion and Cleveland as the convention city for 1920 Washington and San Francisco contested with these two, respective ly, and lost by narrow margins.
 Holders of public office or candi- dates are barred from office in the Legion by the amendment to the adopted late today de claring that the Legion will take no part in politics.
 A minority report permitting poli- tical officers to be officers of the Legion was defeated by an over whelming viva voce vote, but the roll call vote on the adoption of the 'non-political" resolution showed a majority of about 100 of the 6S4 votes.
