Industrial Life Ebbs.

i'AeSS''ot @ii0 ASbos
LONDON. Oct. Is. With coal
mining stopped entirely by the strike
of one million miners, Great Britain's
industrial life ebbed today.
Mills and factories Immediately felt
the pinch. Many announced shut
downs today. Labor and labor party
meetings were scheduled for this
week. Strike votes in numerous
unions were expected to follow those
sessions.
Most important of the labor meet
ings will be that of executives of the
triple alliance-the miners, railway
and transport workers.
Controlling more than three mil
lion men, the triple alliance was ex.
pected to exert powerful influence
either toward settlement Of the coal
strike or the precipitation OF further
trouble.
Railways will continue to operate
on full schedule until the latter part
of the week. Even then, it was be-
lieyed, there will be no drastic cut
in service. Suburban and PASSENGER
service will be the last to go. The
strike leaders said they had ample

over a long period of idleness.
Although newspapers commented
in an optimistic way on the peaceful
ness of the strike and hoped vaguely
for something to turn up to bring
about mediation, there appeared no
substantial basis for those hopes.
Miners leaders and government Of
ficials appeared equally opposed to
initiating a settlement. The conven-
ing of parliament tomorrow was
looked to by some as providing the
means Of mediation, but no announce
ment was made by either side that
the subject would be presented.
Miners leaders made last minute
appeals to the men today to stand
firm, admitting the fight would be
hard, but assuring them of success

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-Pres
dent Wilson today asked Senate
Harding, republican presidentis
nominee, If he said in his speech
Green Castle, Indiana, Saturday, ths
he had been informally approached
by spokesman OF France, who aske
that America lead the way in formin
an association of nations.
The presidents inquiry was col
tanned in a letter given out today
the white house.
The letter follows:
My Dear Sir:
In the New York Times, Of
yesterday, Sunday. October IL,
1920, / find dispatch dated st.
Louis, October 16, which purports
to report recent public utterances
of yours. In it occurs the follow
ing:
'Replying to criticism Of his
proposal for an association Of
nations, he said in rear plat
form speech at Green Castle, In
diana, that he already had been
approached informally by a rep
resentative Of France, who asked
that the United States lead the
way to world fraternity"
l write to ask If this is a cor
rect quotation and if you really
said what is there accredited to
you. need not point out to you
the grave and extraordinary in
ferences to be drawn from such
a statement, namely, that the
government of France which is a
member of the league of nations,
approached private citizens 'of a
nation which is not member OF
the league with a request that
the United States lead the way to
a world fraternity The depart
ment OF state has always found
the government of France most
honorably mindful of it's inter
national obligations and pune
tfliously careful to observe all the
proprieties of International inter-
course. I hesitate, therefore, to
draw the inference to which |
have referred unless I am assured
by you that you actually made
this statement.
Very truly yours,

ing replied that he was correctl
quoted, there might be another lette
or statement based upon Harding
