To Consider
Coal Strike
British Legislative e
Body Reconvenes in
London; Problems are
Many

London, Oct. 19.-Parliament re-
opened today with the situation
created by the coal strike and the
Irish problem combining to draw
the members to Westminster in
large numbers. The beginning of
the autumn session, which usually
starts with lightly attended
house and the discussion of unim-
chamber crowded in anticipation of
an immediate debate on the coal
strike.
When Premier Lloyd George en-
tered he received an ovation.
The coal strike discussion was
opened by Sir Robert Horne, presi-
dent of the board of trade. He de-
clared the government was open to
every form Of suggestion by which
a peaceful solution of this great
question could be obtained. He ap-
pealed to the house to keep all bit
terness out. of the debate, saying
the problem was to be solved not
by denunciation, but by good will
and common sense.
Sir Robert reviewed the attempts
at a settlement, with the miners
and drew gloomy picture of the
results if the strikeNw were to be con-
tinued. The factories throughout
the country were closing, he said,
each day throwing 10000 addition
al persons out of employment.

"The building permit affair has
nothing to do with the delay in

morning. I'VE are merely holding
up work at the request of Mr..

Mr.. Gile expressed the belief
that, when the residents of south
Salem get together and fully under

no further trouble.
That the portable building, even
if erected, would not be sufficiently
large to accommodate all the chill
dren, is the opinion of Mr.. Bohrn-

at the school, l think four rooms

cording to the permit. will cost ap-
proximately $4,000.
