1V1 sumed that the Federal government, in
its Indictment Of the mine workers, had

and, because they have not been defiant may
engage in any practice which the emergency
suggests. in the confidence that they Will not

But MIR. Palmer has taken pains TO relieve
the minds of such coal operators OF any false
Impressions delusions on this score. He
has given them notice that the government
has taken sides in the controversy; that
II has expressed no opinion regarding the
merits Of the disputes and. finally. that the
1awbrcaking coal producer looks just as much
like criminal to him as lawbrea king

Early in the present emergency certain OF
the operators let it be known publicly that
they would make attempt to their
mines or to produce coal. They were will
ing for the government to take over their
properties temporarily and assume all re-
sponsibility and all risks involved in mine
operation nj this time. but they were re-
solved to "sit tight in 50 far as their opera
tons were concerned This looked dan
gerously like law violation TO the Attorney
General. IT had all the earmarks of con-
spiracy on the part OF the operators to limit
the production OF coal, and Mr.. Palmer found

operator group OF operators who de-
hDerately conSpired agreed with each

This undisguised warning had an iInme-

produce all the coal they could find miners

y little later. however the president Of

objected to government prices particularly
He wanted the law Of supply and demand to
govern. He wanted TO charge as much for
the available supply of fuel as the market

bonuses to miners, to break the backbone of
the strike. In less than ten typewrittcn
lines the Attorney General made crushing
answer to this coal merchant. He told this
association that the power of the Federal
