SEEUTTLE CHANCE
Of MINERS PEACE
Resumption of Conference
Today Finds Both Sides
Standing Firm.

Miners and operators, called here
by Secretary Wilson In nm effort to
settle the coal strike ordered for
November I, still were wide apart
today.
After n two-hour conference Sec
Rotary Wilson shifted his program
by adJourninx the miners group
until this afternoon and holding q
separate meeting with the opera
tors. He proposed to meet the
miners later and then cali in the
operators again.
There was little hope of averting
of bituminous coal miners set for No
vember l when representatives of the
miners and operators resumed today
their joint conference with Secretary
of Labor Wilson.
While union leaders and operators
were frankly doubtful of the success
Of conciliation efforts. they readily
agreed to Mr.. Wilson's request to
meet again today after failure yester-
day to reach an agreement.
Both Sides Firm.
Both sides stood firm overnight. the
demands. while operators reiterated
that it would be impossible to enter
into negotiations in the face of the
strike order. which the union an
nounced would not be withdrawn.
Secretary Wilson still believed there
was a way out Of the trouble and gov
eminent officials deferred considera-
ton of other plans for settling the
strike until the result of his efforts
became known. Should these fail 1t
was said the government might step
in and force continued operation of
the mines SO as to give the public an
May Report to Senators.
There were reports after the meet
ing got under way that Secretary Will
son would attempt to hold representa-
tives of the miners and operators here
to appear before the Senate commit
tee Investigating the coal situation
in event of the conference 1aileo TO
settle the strike.
Some of the miners were reluctant
about attending the meeting. in view
, of the statement yesterday by John l..
Lewis, president of the United Mine
workers of America, that he did not
see the necessity of adjOurning over
until today in face of the stone-wall
attitude Of the operators. Secretary
Wilson insisted. however. that the
task was not hopeless.
Lewis declined to comment today,
saying: See Wilson; he is the man
of mystery in the proceeding"
The cause of the great consuming
public, those who. for lack of fuel
and transportation, would suffer
most heavily in the event of pro-
/ longed strike, was laid before the
meeting by Secretary Wilson imme-
diately after 1T was called to order.
The Secretary said he gave full
weight to the statement of the oper-
a1ors regarding contracts, the i'm
! nortance of resembling the strike or
der, and the withdrawal Of demands

gave weight to the statement OF the
