HAVE NEW PLAN
To STOP WARS
Would Abolish, Mine Guard Sys-
tenn, but Agree to Leave Z
.Non-union Men Alone.
by HARRY l.. ROGERS.
International News Service.

Representatives Of the United Mine
Workers today are optimistic OF Sc
curing Administration support for a
plan calculated TO settle for all time
the differences between miners and
operators, which on numerous occa-
sions have resulted In open warfare
in West Virginia. s,r. ..'ta
This plan Is SO simple. according
to the miners representatives. that
there is every reason 10 believe 1t
will recommend itself not only to
the Senate investigating committee
soon to open hearings in West Vir-
and Secretary of War Weeks.
Aside from the natural Interest
which the President has in seeing
normal conditions restored in the
State. the Administration has plainly
indicated that 1t does not intend to
keep Federal troops there indefin.
itely, and Is equally opposed to the
idea of being appealed to for assist
ance every time the situation be-
comes alarming. r-.
60 The new plan contempIates laying
aside recriminations for transgressions
alleged to have been committed by
both sides in the past. The operators
would agree to the principle of collec-
ttNS tuCn OF
their employees as desire to become
members Of the union.
On their part. the miners would
agree to give any sort Of reasonable
guarantees that no attempt would be
made TO tntfmidate non-union miners
who do not care to join the ,organiza
ton.
The third provision Of the plan, in
the opinion of the miners representa-
tives. goes to the very root Of the
whole trouble in West Virginia. II
provides that the operators agree to
abandon the policy Of paying salaries
Of deputy sheriffs and OF employing
mine guards.
A State national guard would prob
ably not be Objectionable to the min
ers. provided II were organized under
Federal supervision, though they are
frankly skeptical Of a State militia or.
ganized on any other basis.
The last provision Of the plan In for
the appointment Of a permanent arbi.
traitor. to be named preferably by the
Chief Justice of the United States.
This arbitrator should decide any con.
troversies which might arise as to al
legged violations of the agreement.
The plan will be submitted to the
Kenyon investigating committee when
It resumes its hearings in West vn-
sinia. ......--t .e- ~, ap-9s,. .- ,----

bill is completed. 1t is not anticipated
that Senator Penrose Of Pennsyl-
vania and other Republican Senators
backing the Administration's tax
program will accept the Smoot bill as
q substitute for their own.
Smoot Is likely then likely to offer
his bill in the Senate after the
Mellon-Penrose bill Is reported. Such
q move by him would probably bring
the sales tax issue to direct test
That a fight over the sales tax in the
Senate is inevitable Is the opinion
OF Senators on both sides. -
At present Administration influ.
ences are working against the Smoot
plan. But powerful business inter
ests are reported TO be bringing con
siderable pressure in its support. ana

The Administration bill Penrose and
his Republican associates will submit

lead to long and tempestous debate.

realized.
