 ROAD TOPEACE
 IN COAL MINES
(Lead by United Press)


 Federal investigation of the un- authorized strike of coal miners in Illinois, Indiana and Kansas was full ly under way today. With federal agents gathering information for pos si0le prosecution, officials of mine unions and mine operators started nasty parleys in an attempt to nego- tiate a settlement independency of government intervention.
 In response to a telegram from John l.. Lewis, international presi- dent of the United Mine Workers. Chairman Brewster of the operators committee for the central competitive district, today called a conference of coal mine operators in Illinois, In- diana, Ohio and western Pennsylvania. Carrying out his instructions, opera tors in each of the four states will hold separate conferences and will transmit the decisions reached to Mr. Brewster who declared today he would accept whatever decision is taken by the maority of the operators
 Indiana officers of the United Mine Workers were in session to- day to draft a proposal for presenta- tIon to operators.
 Industrial plants in the middle west today capitulated to the coal shortage, and many of them closed down. Steel mills at Gary, Ind, and in the great Calumet region for the first time since the unauthorized strike was started, laid off patches of workmen and the curtqilment of all operations At Chi cago, coal may be rationed during the period of the emergency. Some plants have hastily added oil burning equip ment and are using that fuel.
 President Wilson today recalled Secretary of Labor w. B. Wilson to Washington to assume direction of measures which the federal govern ment may take The labor secretary has made investigations of the causes of the strike in Illinois. His report will be handed President Wilson with in the next few days, and will de- termine whatever action the president will take. At present, President Will son is holding the entire matter in abeyance until the labor secretary submits his report.
 Mine workers union officials in conference today at Terre Haute or dered all miners in the Indiana field to return to work tomorrow, pending adjustment of their claims. Decision of the unions today virtually ends the unauthorized strike so far as Indiana is concerned

Those who inclined easily place peculiar con-

not locate the plans and proes mentioned in the commits
son specifications for road He said he had been
informed that the proles instead of being file with the
county clerk at the office of the highway commission
He said nobody had been able to tell him. where the office
of the commission was located
The attention of the board of supervisors also call
ed the fact that the license of Warren Bros permitting
the of Warrene and Warrnte bthtic cement in this
county had been filed Because of this contractors
unable bid, unless they had been able to make
private agreement with Warren Bros. allowing them to

When the time for opening of the bids it develop
ed that only bid had been submitted One other was
filed earlier the afternoon but Withdrawn and had
not been filed until three minutes after the time fixed for

contractors had filed bids.
To speak most mildly, the situation a bad bungle

FEW BUSINESS FAILURES

Whatever business may say about the difficulties
they experienced last year. certainly good year for
business They complain about it, but the facts refute
their pessmsm The record of business failures is
trustworthy index than the personal opinion of any
group of men.
When business is bad there many bankruptcies.
When business good there few. Bradstreets report
of the failures for the first months of last shows that
there fewer failures during that time than for
similar period in the last 19 years.
The failures recorded for 1919 numbered only 1926
The approach to this low figure the first 10
months of 1903 when there 1904 failures Moreover
the total liabilities of bankrupt firms last year the
smallest years with the exception of the year 1902
tho business operations generally much larger
scale than they used to be-
This low of failures of course, merely negative
business prosperity But anyone who does not
consider it conclusive easily subsantate by reports
of earnings nearly all lines of business There is little
doubt of what the income will show And there
is nothing indicate fortune this year. provided

leave no room for doubt as to the
result, hence the actin at this time.
