London, April is. S.-Governmental
authorities were anxious today to re-
open negotiations between the min
ers and the owners OF colleries
throughout the United Kingdom with
the hope OF bringing about perma-
nent settlement of the wage question
which caused the strike of miners on
April l, and came near involving
Great Britain last week in an epochal
industrial crisis. There seemed lit
tie probability, however. that mem
bers of the miners federation OF
Great Britain would take any steps
to meet government officials or mine
owners before next Friday, when rep
resentatives of British miners will
confer on the situation in this city.
In the meantime Great Britain isl
facing a serious coal shortage and ev-
cry effort is being made to eke out
present stocks until some adjustment
of the situation can be made. Begin
ming today, train services were cur
tailed, and steps taken to bring to the
people a realization that the coal
shortage was really serious.
A mass meeting of the members OF
the coal porters' union was held in
Canning Town, suburb of London,
yesterday, and resolutions were adopt
ed stating that in view of the impor-
tation of American and German coal
the union would refuse from tomor-
row to, bunker any full loads, and also
would decline to trans-ship imported
coal. The first decision was taken be-
cause since the beginning of the coal
strike vessels have been bunkered on
ly for outward voyages, taking in for
eign coal for their return ships.
A meeting of the parliamentary Ia
Dor committee and the trades union
congress will be held on Wednesday
and it is believed that at this gather
ing some program may be formulated
| for presentation at next Fridays con-
| ference of miners. The parliament
tary 1atjbrs committee has in the past
been sefviceable as an intermediary
in labor disputes. it's only failure to
| function occurring during the crisis
last week This failure, however. is
understood to have resulted from the
reluctance of some of the most infiu-
entail members of the committee to
do anything which might identify the
! parliamentary arm of the labor move.

prevailing is bringing distress to the
homes of thousands of miners and
those of other employees who are idle

The slowing down of many indus

causing increasing alarm with num-
bers of unemployed registering at the
labor exchanges steadily mounting.
1t is estimated that the Is idle days
in the coal pits have deprived the ma

rious reaction ON various industrial
interests, recovery from which is
daily growing more difficult. There
