One operator prepared rough draft
ofsa lettsr to Prssident Wilson. The
letter suggested that the negotiations
be dropped and that the president ms-
date the controversy between oper-
Gtors and the public and increase in
production costs that might accrue
from future wage increase.
BREWER Dl8eATlsFlED.
President Brewster tonight said
Secretary Wilson's figures for a Al
per cent compromise were based on
false premise.
The 81 per cent proposal would give
the miners rate OF 11S per cent in
excess of their 1914 scale, Brewster
charged, and the day workers an in
crease of 1S1 per cent over the 1914
rate.
According to Wilson's statement. the
increase in the cost of living since 1914
has been 78.S per cent to the miners.
On the basis Of the Wilson compu-
tations, this increase is just met by
bis proposal for a 81 per cent increase.
Wilson used average prices Of food,
clothing. housing, fuel and light, fur
niture and miscellaneous items in
three mining towns in estimating the
AliSA oo''O III tAsS Sout VI AiNAH6 " AIAlIl-
ers since 1914. The three towns Sc
lected were Brazil, Ind, Danville, ILL.,,
and Pana, Ill. No account Is taken
of the fact that miners now are re-
ceiving their house rent and their coal
for domestic use at the 1914 prices
said Brewster
Furthermore, Secretary Wilson
based his figures on miners wages on
the scales paid by pick miners in 1914
in the Pittsburgh and Hooking Valley
fields. This is clearly set forth in the
secretary's statement. But so per
cent Of the coal mined in the central
competitive field is got out with ma
chimes. not by the pick process. Con-
sequently, the pick work no longer Is
II basis for wage scales. This, there
fore is not a fair basis from which to
figure.
"The operators offer Of Is cents more
g. ton for machine miners and a 20
Ter cent increase approximately 81
q day. for day workers, exactly COW
ers the increased cost Of living since
1914, assuming that this increase has
been 1913 per cent as the secretary's
figures show. In Pennsylvania, for in
stance. the operators offer would give
the miners 90 per cent above the 1914
scale. and in Ohio the new scale would
be 81 per cent above the 1914 figure
and in Indiana and Illinois, 81 pei
cent"

Garfield today was not in evidence.

FAITH BROKEN
BY GOVERNMENT
In Speech at Mass Meeting
Labor Leader Says Union
Labor Treated STABILITY in
Miners Strike.

Washington, Nov. e. - Assurance
that the Lever act would not be used
to prevent strikes was given by high
administration officials, senators and
members of congress at the time the
measure was before congress. Samuel
Federation of Labor declared at la
Dor mass meeting here tonight.
Gompers quoted from an deliberately
prepared brief, claiming that the gov
eminent broke faith with union labor
when it used the Lever act as the
er0und for an Injunction to order
striking coal miners back to work.
Labor withdrew opposition to the
bill when It was assured nothing in
the measure would interfere with the
right to strike, Gompers said.
GIVEN ASSURANCES.
"The assurances of the president Of
Labor Wilson, Attorney General Greg
cry, the council of national defense,
Food Administrator Hoover, Represen-
native Lever and others were accepted
al conclusive" Gompers said.
'aThey had all been corroborated in
senate speeches by Senator Husting,
Senator Chamberlin Hollis and others.
Labor ceased to insist that the bill
ehouid be amended and worked whole
heartcdly for the passage of the mea-
sure. Not a doubt existed that the
assurances of the government Offici-
iais would be carried OUT
Attorney General Palmer recently
informed Senator Thomas. Colorado,
that he found no correspondence in the
files of the department of Justice to
Indicate that the government had
promised to exempt labor from the eff
feet of the law. Former Attorney Gen.
eral Gregory was also recently quoted
us denying he made such a promise
" hen the bill was before congress.
Gompers tonight declared that Just
before the bill was passed, then Attor-
rey General Gregory said that he
would write the district attorneys not
10 construe section four as interior
tng in any way with the normal activ-
tiles OF labor"
Senator Hastings statement later
in the senate also clinches the fact
that the president of the United States
was quoted correctly when the claim
vas made that he had endorsed the
statement of Attorney General Greg
r.y,' Gompers said.
Gompers quoted the following state
Snent by Husting.. made during the
senate debate: -a
Il can say that the secretary of labor
tdvfscd me that this was the opinion
OF the administrator and the depart
ment OF Justice. He did not give 81

OIL WOULD BE ENOUGH TO SUPPLY
 PRESENT SHORTAGE

Paris, Dec. 31.-fBy the Associa- ted Press.) The great oil stocks at present stored at Baku in trans Caucasia,) would relieve the worlds shortage of oil, were means of trans portation available"
 Dr. Harry Pratt Judsoal, president Of the University of Chicago and head of the American commission for relief in Persia, made this state ment today, having just returned from an extended trip through Per. sia, the Caucausus and Southern Russia.
 'These stocks," he continued, "are so great, being an accumulation of two or three years, that the wells are unable to work at their full capacity owing to lack of storing and tanking facilities"
 Dr. Judson explained that the principal outlet for the products of the Baku oil fields was up the Vol ga river through Russia, but that Bolsheviki anarchy had prevented shipping for the last two years; hence the congestion. One tank line between Baku and Batoum has been cpelating since the armi5tice and shipments have been made to Odes- sa, Crimea and the Dardanelles, while oil has been pumped to Bat oum across the Caucasus. But lack of tank steamers at Batoum is mak' ing the progress slow.

"NO Accommodation Between Old Balance Of Power and Universal Concert of Mind and Wi.l.'

London, Dec. 31.--Citing passages from Presidents Manchester speech, which it says, 'illustrate his con scousness that the establishment of permanent peace is not matter of rule and compasses of a task which can be carried out to per lection finally by the joint wisdom of tle conference" the Daily Tele graph instances parts of Premier Clamenceau's speech as indicating "sCme of those difficulties Nn the way of complete agreement which are present in Mir. Wilson's mind as also in the minds of French and British statesmen"
 But the Telegraph is of the opin- ion that other parts of Clemenceau's speech show equally plainly as un- deriving community of convictions upon the larger matter.
 The Daily Mail considers that an understanding Between the United States, France and Great Britain has been reached through President Will sons conversations, and expresses gratitude for the coming of the President to Europe and says that his presence has created a strong

moral force besides unison of friendship.
 The Daily Mail, commenting edl- torially on the speeches of President Wilson and Premier Ciemenceau. re- marks that they strike different notes and says that this is only what expected. The newspaper is of the opinion that reaching an agreement is bound to be long and difficult; otherwise President Wilson would not have broken precedents to come to Europe.
 Abiding to indications in the speeches of M Pichon, the French foreign minister, and the resigna ton of the Italian minister, Signor Bissoiati, that the danger of National ambitions is Aooming ilarger than the abstract principles of Justice, the Daily News. declares:
 There can abe no accommodation between the old balance of power order, which Clemenceau is reluc- tant to forsake, and the Universal concert of mind and will. to which President Wilson summons the world. The conference must be su- preme, or it will provoke war in stead of ending it. It must meet not to satisfy claims, but to establish justice. On no ott@" tt'c.'l.ls can the world be. saved from ihe unspeaka- ble curse of permanent militarism.
