Administration oficials based their
hopes for q resumption of negotia-
tons on the possibility that the oper-
ators and miners, brought directly
before the public In their fight when
Secretary Of Labor Wilson. on his
own responsibility. asked for q meet
ing Of the fun wage committees Of
men and employers. could get to-
gether on the basis Of more money
and a compromise on the question Of
hours.
Mr.. Lewis, discussing reports that
naturalization Of mines might be-
come an issue. said:
Naturalization Of mines, though
approved by our recent convention, Is
a side issue. 1t Is a legislative mat
ter. 1t will not be brought into the
present situation"
Chairman Brewster, of the opera
tors scale committee. replied to q
previous charge of the miners that
the operators were profiteering. He
denied the charge, and declared the
miners were trying to cloud the issue
and divert public attention, adopt
ing tactics often pursued by those
unable to support their contention

said the Federal Trade Commission

are raising rices at present. taking
advantage Of public fear of a strike.
To the operators charges that the
miners plan to break contracts, Lewis
replied that this claim was totally
unfounded and had mo basis in fact. I.
The agreement. he said. was to run
until the ending of the war or until
March 81. The war ''in substance

A proposal for a Senatorial in
vestigation of Newberry's right to
his seat was dropped. Newberry
has held his seat since the begin

precedent is that a member of Con-
gress can take his seat upon pre-

challenged by some other member.
The unseating OF Newberry and
the seating of Ford in the Senate
would give each party forty-eight
Senators, providing Ford cast his

Previous attempts to inquire into
the Newberry case were halted

Employer Opposition.


II is against this particular section
that the employers opposition is
strongest. One of the compromises
tentatively reached yesterday was
directed primarily to removing the
objection of the employers without
making a change so Objectionable to
labor that the labor group would re-
fuse to accept it,
So 1t was tentatively agreed that
the resolution read that in collec-
tive bargaining the wage-earners
be represented "by representatives
chosen by a majority of their own
number" Thus it is expected to
remove the fears of the employers
that the granting of the right to
bargain collectively would be equiv
alent to surrendering directly to or
ganized labor.
Under the changed wording. the
vote of a majority of the wage
earners in a plant or industry would
determine who their representatives
would be. and IL nonunion men were in
the majority, then representatives
other than those of organized labor
might be chosen. 1t was also held
that this wording would give the
employers the opportunity to press
upon their employees the advantage
of company or plant unions. if they
so desired.
second Compromise.
II also was advanced in support
of the changed wording that the
labor group could hardly refuse to
accept the amendment because the
resolution in its changed form
maintains the principle for which
the unions have been contending.
namely. the right OF the individual
to choose his own representatives
in industrial disputes.
The second important compromise
reached yesterday was a proposal
to extend the classification of wage
earners. so that it would be broader
and more inclusive of workmen,
whether union Of nonunion. The
original resolution grants the
right of wage-earners to organize
in trade and labor unions" Agree

STREET CAR SETTLEMENT
APPEARS NOT PROMISING

No chance for a settlement OF the
street car situation in East Chicago IS in
sight unless the street car company is
willing to concede something TO the city.
1t is not known definitely what attitude
the company will take today when they
appear before the East Chicago board Of
works but the members of the board are
expecting the same attitude ast last
week.
If this same attitude is in evidence
the discussion will be short and the
hearing will be postponed to some future
date Just how long the company will
continue TO appear before the East Chi
cago board before taking some further
action TO force the issue is not known.
As long as the situation continues as
II is the board is not anxious 10 taAe

issue will therefore necessarily come
from the street car company. If they

ures tend 10 show the company Will not
allow matters to run along much longer
