COAL CONTROL
TO BE LIFTED.
Removal Of u. S. Price Re-
striction Necessary to
End Labor Dispute.
MINE WAGES TO RISE
Demands Under Present
Tariffs Would Bankrupt
Operators, Claim.
MINE WAGES TO RISE

PRONUNCIATION of an executive or
der lifting government control of
coal prices Is predicted by opera
tors and labor leaders who have
kept in close touch with the coal
situation as the next step by the
President in his effort to adjust the
differences which today have un-
HtabiliZed the entire industry.
An end to government restric-
tions is believed to be a necessity II
either OF the reports suggested by
the coal commission Is to be made
the basis of final settlement. 1t
Is the intention of the government
to see that the operators absorb
as much as they are able of any ad-
vance in wages that may result, but
evidence introduced before the
commission has convinced its mem
bers and government officials that
the coal industry cannot go beyond
q certain point without verging on
bankruptcy.
VIII Submit Reports.
At the same time the President.
1t Is said, will place before a joint
conference of the operators and mi
ners the two reports submitted by
his coal commission of three with
the injunction that he expects the
two factions to reach an agreement
on the divergent views expressed
in the two documents.
There exists today a series of
complications which lave not served
to make easy the task leading up
to a settlement, and which have
resulted in frequent conferences on
the situation between A. Mitchell
Palmer. Attorney General; Walker
ID. Hines, formerly Director General
of Railroads, and the White House.
Among these difficulties are:
The improbability that the oper-
ators and miners will be able on
this occasion to find a. meeting place
for their divergent views.
The direct bearing which the Ip-
dianapolis indictments will have on
the coal situation.
The threat of strike on April
! which is hinted at by the men,
bers of the United Mine Workers
of America.
Same Old Differences.
The majority and minority re-
ports of the Coal Commission sub
mitted respectively by Henry n.
Robinson and Rembrandt PeaIe, and
John p. White contain virtually the
same differences which caused the
split between the employers and the
workers here last Thanksgiving
Day.
The majority report says a 2J per
cent wage advance should be suf-
ficient and that the working day
should not be shortened. The mi
rority view, emanating from the
representative of labor, advocates
an increase of 35 per cent and in
sists that there must be a shorter
working day.
The indianapolis cases will have
a direct bearing on the situation
If. aS it has been rumored. a basis
of the case brought by the govern
ment is the use of the check-off
system. 1t is understood the con-
tent:on of the government is that
it is coercion to force men to be-
long to the union and therefore un-
lawful.

Unitarianism, Defined as
Fu6llment Of Religion.
Defended by Pastor q
ALI Souls Church.

Unitarianism was defined as sths
fuifilmept OF religion" blythe Rev.
DR.. Ulysses q. B. Pierce. pastor Ct
All Souls Church. in sermon ON
why lam. an American" at the
Knickerbocker Theater. yesterday
morning.
Yesterday was the first time All
Souls Church has held services out
side Of the historic church at Four
teenth and L streets. which was
built in 1921, and which IL now be-
Ing razed. Regular church services
will be held at the Knickerbocker
Theater until the completion Of the
new edihce. at Sixteenth and Har-
ward streets.
DR.. Pierce based his faith on the
sixteenth verse of the twenty fourth
chapter Of Acts: Herein do ex-
ercise myself to have always the
conscience void of offense toward
God and toward men," He referred
to Christ as THE Genius in the
providence of God, born 1000 years
ago., and explainedAthat Unitarian
ism, while embodying a different
conception of the teachings Of the
Bible, was not antagonistic toward
other denominations. I'm the wor-
ship of the God of our fathers, all
people In the pursuit Of the spirit
OF religion are entitled to choose
their own way. The Unitarians do
not attempt to disturb them, since
| they believe the aims of all denomi-
nations are in search of the same
spiritual goal" he stated.
DR.. Pierce deprecated the at
tacks that have been made upon
Cnitarianism, and asserted that the
opinions of many people were due
TO misconceptions of the Unitarian
Church. Referring to the attitude
of other denominations, he said:
Those who look upon the Unitarian
Church as being composed of wicked
Bolshevists of religion. attempting
to destroy Christian standards, are
only in the kindergarten stage of
religious development. Unitarian
ism stands for the fulfillment of
| religion, and is utterly opposed to
the destruction or weakening of it"

POLAND DENIES

Polish officials in Washington

go Bolshevit. Reports from Berlin

In their denial of this, Polish Of

lasted only thirty-six hours.
The strikers included electricians
and railroad men. While the strike
ilasted, transportation in and about
Poland's capital was considerably
tied up.
Polish officials here report that
Russian and Polish representatives
are still engaged in peace parleys
at Warsaw. However, they declare
Poland cannot safely make any per-
imanent decisions. until the confused
allied policy toward Russian Boil
shevism is clarified.

make peace, we will do our best

soldiers on the Russian front. il

and morale are said to be In some
measure affected by the extreme cold
weather and a serious lack of shoes.
Admittedly, Poiand's position has
been made graver than ever by
the present red revolt in Germany.
German NBolshevism and Russian
have to turn Poland into a bloody
sea before they could really join
hands.
Should Poland run red. the food

event, the possibility of its trick

Fashion Comedies
Comfort for Men
In Clothes StuEes

New York. March 21.-Clothing
designers. who will meet here to-
morrow night, have decided TO give
unimportant man the styles he
wants for at least a year.
The czars of fashion decreed there
shall be no more one and two-but-
ton coats. The American man pre-
fers three, they think. and that is
what the law will dictate. A nat
ural fitting coat will take the place
of the narrow. skin-tight shape and
II will be a little longer than the
enc worn nowadays by followers OF
style.
Slash Pockets Doomed.
The narrow sleeves will be re-
tanned, and the 1O-inch slit in he
back will be the thing. There Will
he no slash pockets and in both the
vest and the coat there will be a
slight curve-something classy. the
designers say.
In trousers there will be almost
no change. They'll be narrow with
cuffs.
Moreover, there will be little
change IN evening ufess anu the
cutaway garb so popular at the
National Capital. For those who
wish to be very modish, the de-
signers plan to approve a sport sack
coat, which, with its wide belt ani
back with. two knife pleats, has the
stamp of being correctly blase.
.Megaphone" Suit Taboo.
Subdued colors will be the order
of the day and he that wears a
"megaphone" suit will be quite
outside"
To the wearer of the spring top
coat, much has been granted IL
will be shapely in front with a full
box back and no vent. There will
be patch pockets of circular style
and the general run will be in light
colors.
