Hope is Based on Negotiations

ANOTHER MEETING TO-DAY
Belief Prevails That Lloyd
Lloyd Georges Proposal is for
Increased Pay and Output.
fsy Associated Press.l

London, Oct 24.-Premier LLOYD
George, cabinet members and represen-
tatives of the striking coal miners
conferred for three hours today. After
the miners delegates had departed the
cabinet members continued in session
with Mr.. Lloyd George. Frank Hodges,
on leaving with the other representa-
tives of the miners, said the discus
sions would be continued.
After the meeting with the govern
ment leaders, the miners executive
body went into conference which lasted
until 4;30 p. m. and then adjourned
until tomorrow afternoon The con-
ventioa with Mr.. Lloyd George and the
other members of the government will
be resumed
Hope seemed to prevail that there
would be a settlement of the coal
strike as result of the renewal of
the direct negotiations between the
miners and the government.
Meanwhile neither side has disclosed
the mature of these negotiations, but,
according to unofficial reports, Premier
Lloyd George suggested some formula
that would satisfy the government
that if a two shillings advance were
granted it would be accompanied by an
increased output.

COMPERS GIVES
LEAGUE VIEWS
Labor Provision of Covenant is
Characterized as Document
for Humanity.
tsy Associated Press.l

Washington, Oct. 24.-Replying to a
question from William Michaels, OF
Tulsa, Okla, labor leader, as to what
effect the League of Nations as adj
vocated by the American Federation
of Labor would have on the laboring
people of this country, Samuel Com
pers, president of the federation, to-
night wired that the labor provisions
of the covenant constitute labor's bill
of rights and is document for hu-
manity.'
After pointing out that the fedora
tion at it's 1919 convention had unan-
imously voted an endorsement of the
league, and quoting in full the pream-
BILE and nine points of the covenants
labor section, Mr. Gompers urged
American workers should support the
league because it's provisions would
confer lasting benefits upon the wage
earners of the world, and is a great
effort to forward those measures that
make for the Improvement of the stan
dards and health of the people in all
signatory nations"
Mr.. Gompers' statement was sup
plemented by a statement from the
federation's non partisan political
campaign committee further ex-
pressing what was termed the view
point of labor.
All opponents Of the league, the
statement declared. could be classed
either as extreme reactionaries or ex-
treme radicals. The former, it said. OPP
posed the league because the covenant
provides the best check on reaction,
while radicals take the ground that it
means a stiffening against change.
This position of the radicals, the
statement asserted, is a viciously false
one. as the league facilitates and en-
courages evolutionary development
and progress and provides the best
possible check against turbulent and
unhealthy upheaval of destructive
character.
