The government will establish the
"illegality' of the strike of coal miners,
without in any way impairing the gem
eral right to strike as the general
right to strike is not an issue in any
sense whatever in the present situation -
it was declared in a statement tonight,
after q conference in the office of At
torney General Palmer, at which he dis
cussed the situation with Secretary Will
son, Director General Hines, Secretary
Tumulty and Assistant Attorneys Cen
erals Ames and Garvan.
The statement, which it is said fully
represents the attitude of the govern
ment declared that the impending coal
strike was ordered in a manner, for a
purpose and with necessary effect,
which, taken together, put it outside the
pale of the law"
One decision of the government con-
ference on coal late today was to recon
mend to the president the re-establish-
ment of maximum prices on coal which
prevailed when the fuel administration
went out of existence. These prices are
considerably lower than the prices now
prevailing.
DR.. H A. Garfield, former fuel ad-
ministrator. made the announcement as
to resumption of price control. He de-
clared that his recommendations, which
will 60 to the president tomorrow, will
deal only with the question of prices anC
would not be concerned with the alloca-
tion Of fuel or the zoning system Of

ADDS To BRITISH
BURDEN IS HOWL
AS for Russia, Churchill
Says That Adventure
Is Nearing End.

London, Oct. o9-Interest on the first
day Of the great finance debate in the
house Of commons was in the speeches
Of Austen Chamberlain, chancellor of
he excheauer. and Winston Churchill,
Secretary Of war.
The ministers and Mr. Bonar Law.
the government leader. referred in terms
of regret to the delay of the United
States in accepting mandate for
Turkey, as adding to the government S
responsibilities and difficulties the
heaviest of its burdens.
Chamberlain made it quite clear that
the government had no intention OF re,
ferring to levy on capital, advocated
by William c. Adamson in behalf OF the
labor party, but was inclined to examine
into the possibility of a levy on war
profits.
Churcbills speech was mainly recital
of figures justifying army expenditure:
Owing to the reduction IN the size OF
the army occupying Germany, he expects
that only 100000 pounds sterling will
be received from Germany. He an
nounced final contribution to General
Denikine, anti-bolshevik leader In south
Russia, of approximately lo.ooo.uou
pounds sterling, which will be dispatched
during the winter.
1--WE are approaching the end of our
entanglements in Russia, Mr.. Churehi!l
declared.
Mr.. Chamberlain asserted that it was
not within the power of the British
government to remedy the Turkish situa-
ton, which was an international af-
fair Everybody knew a settlement was
being delayed, pending decision by the
United States whether she would under
take her part of the white mans burden,
and the execution of the tutelage OF
Turkey under the league of nations.
