WASHINGTON, Oct. ls.-There

Secretary of Labor Wilson, at whose
invitation the scale committees of the
minors and operators will meet with
him here Tuesday, declined to comment
on the negotiations, and continued to
hope that he won be able to bring
about peace. Official Washington held
to the view, however, that the strike
was inevitable. The meeting will be
behind closed doors.
In statement to-day denying
charges by the United Mine Workers
that the operators "are taking ad-

chairman of the operators association,
declared the miners were trying to

Sugar Situation TO Be
" Worse, Says DR.. Taylor
Senate Committee Is Told That
Making Of Soft Drinks Is One
Reason for Present Scarcity

WASHINGTON, Oct lS.-No relief
from the present sugar situation is in
sight and the probabilities are that
conditions will become worse the Sen
ate Agriculture Committee was told to-
day by DIR. Alonzo Taylor, of the De-
partment of Agriculture
Consumption has increased about t8
Per cent, compared with last year, DR..
Taylor said, due largely to Increased
manufacture of candy and soft drinks
TO satisfy demand resulting from pro
hlbitlon. Other causes given by the
Wltne 5 were rebound from wartime
repression and extravaganza due TO
present prosperity.
DR.. Taylor told the committee the
price OF sugar had nothing to do with
consumption in the United S ates, as
the peop'e were engaged in an "orgie of
spending" and were not trying to econ
omzc.
There is an increased demand for
sugar in Europe, he said, and If this
country is to get sufficient supplies it
will have to bid against Europe, with d
resulting advance in prices.
George A. zabriskie president of the
United States Sugar Equalization
Board, and William A. Glasgow. the
boards attorney, told the committee
that retention of the licensing provis-
ion in the bin continuing the board in
operation during 1920 was ''absolutely
Imperative" if the board was to func-
tion successfully.
