COAL CAR PRIORITY
EXTENDED 80 DAYS
Affects Shipment East of Mis-
sissippi; Will Relieve Short
age, Operators Say.

Washington, July 14.-Thc Inter
state Commerce Commission handed
down late yesterday afternoon n decision
which, in an amended form, extends
the life of the coal priority order restrict
ing in the territory cast of the Mississippi
River the use of open-top cars to the
transportation of coal for an additional
thirty days from July 81 next.
The commission in issuing the order
said that because of the "lnablnty Of
common carriers properly and compete
~ to serve the pubic in the transporta-
tion of coa., an emergency exists which
requires immediate action.
The representatives of the bituminous
Goa. interests were in session when the
decision WAS made public. and the con
sensus of opinion among the operators
WAS that the new order with the exception
of that part which permits the assignment
of cars for certain specific purposes, l.
good one and will go a long way toward
solving the serious coal problem now facing
the nation.
The new order docs not refer to the
situations IN New England or the North
west, nor does il rule regarding the re
consignment practice which was subject
of so much criticism at the hearings be
lore ttle cpTufnHSSlon INST week. IN u Iftttf
to Daniel Willard, President Of the Bait
more x Ohio Railroad and Chairman of
the Advisory Committee of the Associa
tlon of Railway Executives, Chairman
Clark explains that the commission de-
fers action regarding the Great Lakes or
Northwest situation rs well rs the re-
consignment practice until after the con-
ference In New York tomorrow of the
Railway and Coal Operators Committees,
at which conference the railway officials
ard coal men will Try to find way TO
straighten out the bitumiDous coal tangle
m which the country rs now cnmcshed.
Decision of the Interstate Commerce
Commission was accepted today by mine
operators generally as a step that would
aid materially IN solving the coal trans
portation problem.
The original order would have expired
July 81. Roads must place an embargo
against cunsignees failing to unload open
top cars within "a hours after delivery.
Railroads may assign cars without re-
gard to exlstIng ratings for the mines so

JAPANESE TAKE Up

voters Of the State in the coming Ma
vembcr elections, and there is every in
dication that it will be approved by the
voters Of California.
Whatever the action Ia be taken in
California, there is now no doubt in
Washington that the problem presented
by the influx Of japanese into Cali
fmnia, and by the proposed action IN
California, combine To confront the
American Government with an extremely
difficult and intricate problem, one of
the most important problems that the
United States has to face in the next

cance than the country at large had been

The influx Of japanese into California
and the increase Of Japanese population
there. as n result Of the entry Of Jap
Japancse population through births, is
known by Federal officials TO have de-
veloped n situation in California which
must soon be met fairly and couraReously.
There is now no doubt in welhnformed
quarters here that before another winter

of tho attitude Of the United States
toward the California angle nf the Japan

EXPECT PRESIDENT TO
GIVE STRONG SUPPORT

Washington, July l4-Men in close
touch with the White House assert that
after the conference between the Presi-
dent and Governor Cox it will be made
very plain that there is no real difference
between them over the League Of Nations
project, and that, if Republican leaders
are counting upon the failure of President
Wilson TO give enthusiastic support to the
Democratic national ticket they are
doomed to bitter disappointment
The very morning of Governor Cox S
nomination IT was apparent that the
President and bis closest friends in Wash
ington were greatly pleased. 1t was also
pointed out that the President warmly
approved the speech that Governor Cox
made at the Jackson Day banquet in
Washington, in which he declared that,
inasmuch as the American soldiers In
France had not gone over the top with
reservations, it did not behoove American
politicians at home to take the treaty over
the top with reservations.
