Six alarms summoned fremen
from all over the city to check the
flames which. famed by a brisk

started when burnedout fuse sent

public Ledger seryieeD

Government intervention in the
coal situation beyond the steps thus
far taken by the Interstate Com
merce Commission appears to be
imminent. The developments of the
past few days have been of a ma
ture which may force President Will
son and his executive aides to act.
The increasing seriousness of the
mine strike in Illinois and Indiana,
the continuance of exorbitant prices
for bituminous coal and failure to
relieve the railroad congestion calls
for government action. Two devel-
opments yesterday indicative of the
apprehension on the part of the
President and his advisors were:
President Studying situation.
The President called for and re-
ceived from William B. Wilson,
Secretary of Labor. i report on
the mine strike. Secretary Wilson's
views were transmitted to the
White House without comment and
are being studied by the President
II is understood that Secretary
Wilson. who was not in accord with
the finding of the BitUminous Coal
Commission. recommends that the
award which is now under fire from
miners in Illinois and Indiana
should be reopened.
