fcation ceremonies here today, urged
the country TO summon its forces to
solve the problems of reconstruction
lie devoted the greater part OF his
address to a discussion OF domestic
Issues. but called first for "a return

that is the fundamental American
basis and before domestic problems
can be solved. he added, there must
be return from the voluntary au-
tocracy,' established in the emer-
gcncy OF war to n government as
exercised under the doctrine of the
separation OF powers.

was expressed in a joint statement
Issued tonight by Mr.. Palmer and
Charles S. Allen, secretary of the
Wholesale Coal Trade Association of
New York.
'AttorneyGencral Palmer" the
statement said. has asked this com
mittcc to consier the feasibility of
naming a fair margin of profit for
producers and dealers in bituminous
coal. 1t is not the intention of the
department TO fix prices, but merely
TO ascertain maximum margin of
reasonable profit beyond which prose
cutions under tho Lever law act will
be commenced.
1nstructs Attorney TO Prosecute.
"It is expected that the committee
will advise the Attorriey-G on

Vice. to instruct the United States

that this action on the part of De-

hoped that IL may result in 6. decline

term!ncd that protitcering shall cease.

Mr.. Allen said that the committee's
price will undoubtedly be materia!
lower than the present market price
of soft coal. The committee hoped
he added. that the chief effect will be
to secure larger percentage of de-
livcries under contracts now held by
the large consumers and a CONSEQUENT
reduction in the amount of free soft
coal.

was suggested to President Wilson
today by the commission OF the In

has just completed an investigation
OF the steel strike of last summer.

TO pass, renewal of the conflict in
this industry seems Inevitable" said
the commissions letter to the prcsi-
dent. The conviction has grown
upon this commission that 1t should
not fail to recommend practical
suggestion for peace in industry
drifting toward unrestricted war

The suggestion is made that the
proposed special commission go for
