 z.4<.s. NATIONS IN SESSION

Geneva, Sept. 5.-(By The A. P.)-The second assembly of the league of na- tions began it's sessions today in an at mospAere of optimism and with as much enthusiasm as might reasonably be e1- pected from SC sober 8 body. It was demonstrated at the outset that the pop ular branch of the league was meeting entirely free from prearranged pro- granme.
 The assembly was called to order and heard the opening address of Dr. We'll ington Koo, of China, without having any idea as to who might be selected as permanent pres Sident. Half a dozen candidates had been vaguly mentioned in the past few days, but the real can- vass of possibilities bekan only yesterday with the arrival of the important dele gations.
 The only business transacted in the morning was the election of commit tee on credentials, and it was not un- til the luncheon recess that the delegates could exchange nots as to thir choice of presiding officer. South America came forward with Dr. Gastoa Da Cunha, of Brazil, and pr. Juan lCarlos Blanco Uruguayan minister at Paris, while there was very important movement in favor of H. A. Van KaInbeek, Dutch minister of foreign affairs, who was eventually elected to the presidency,

Charleston, W. va Sept 5-rr1ree or the army airmen who fell in a Martin bomber in Nicholas county, West Vir- ginia Saturday afternoon are dead, one is injured and the fifth of the crew is still missing. according to unofficial in- formation received by telephone today by Major Davenport Johnson, of the air service, on duty here. The spot where the plane was found is rough, hilly country, thickly wooded and it will be hours before information can be had as to the identity of the dead.
 H. B. White, undertaken of Summers vile, to whom the information was tele- phoned by man named Davis. one of a party of twenty searchers, said the three dead and the injured man will have to be carried by hand as there are no roads to the place where the big bomber fell Search is being made for the fifth man. The wrecked airplane was discov- cred by Ben Hughes, a Nicholas coun- ty man, after a two day search partici- pated in by hundreds of residents of | the vicinity in which the tragedy oc- cured, as seT as airplanes sent out 1 from Charleston and army searching parties.
 Hughes reported to Major Johnson by . telephone that he heard faint cries and l groans while searching in a heavily
 wooded and particularly rugged section. Following the direction of the sounds, he said, he came upon the wrecked ma- | chine, the nose of which had buried it. 1 self in the ground in such way that 1 the tail remained high In the airplane l had been upside down.
 l The bodies of three of the victims
 Hughes said, were suspended head | down, in mio-air, held in their cock | pits by footstraps. The fourth body 1 discovered hours later after a careful l search of the charred debris, was | caught in the wreckage.
 Immediately turning his attention to
 the injured man who had managed tc | crawl several yards from the scene ot the disas and was found lying fact downward, Hughes partially revived Corporal Hazelton by giving him | drink of water He then made the sui. | fering f1ier as comfortable as pozsD | and set out for help.

Washington, sert- 5.-ofic:als of the United Mine Workers of America were charxed with responsibility flor the invasion of Logan county and proposed invasion of Mingo county by armed miners" in a statement issued he-e tonight by Harry Olmsted, chairman of the Operators Association of the Will Hanson Field. The statement was de- clared to be in answer to that of Sam uel GompeTs president of the Ameri can Federation of Labor, which MT. olmsted described as "hypocritical and m many instances, false and mis,ead- ing"
 Mine guards and private detectives are not employed by operators in the Williamson Field Mir. Olmsted said. adding that Mir Gompers had "delFber- ately misrepresented conditions that have preceded and surrounded the at temnt at armed invasion" The charge of Mir Gompers that the uprising had been caused by the failure of the ooe-- ators to put into effect the award of the government wage board. was char acterized as another falsehood"
 The mine operators were under no obligation to do SO" the statement said, they having no sort Of connec- 'ioi Witu lue COdl HelQS covered by that award
 Nevertheless. the increases allowed by the United States government were adopted in this field promptly after the amount of increase had been fixed It has never before been alleged that the strike in the Williamson field was dne to wage adjustments or any cause oth- CT than 10 compel recognition of the United Mine Workers organization. Coal s measured rather than weigh ed in this field because it is the easiest and most satisfactory method Of ac- counting between the miners and the employers: The men have never asked to have the system changed. They don't wanr it changed
 'The earnings per day. or week. or month. is the real test. Such a state ment comparing the earnings in the Williamson field with those in the un ionized Kanawha field was submitted to the senatorial investigating commit

aroused by that exposure thar c..ussd the hanawha miners to attempt an in- vasion of the non-union coal fields.
 MT. Gompers makes himself ridicu- 3ous to West Virsinisns when he makes his plea about the miners pro- testing af'ainst lawlessaezs insofar at least as he refers to the United sfins Workers. The miners themselves are generally law abiding Every disorder that has ever occurred in the mining fields of West Virginia has been occz- stoned by the thugs and outlaws of ths United Mine Workers organization wha came into the state to compel the union- ization of these coal fields.
 The invasion of Logan county and the threatened invasion of 9linro coun. ty was not a spontaneous uprisinE II was threatened by the United Afirs Workers organization in e,e William son field as early as April and May 1920.
 Tn the counties of Logan and Min. 70, West Virginia. and Pike county. Ky. having an aggregate area of 1.s3s square miles. and an aggregate ponula- lion of 116,s47 there were not employ. ed as many as 100 peace officers nriot prior to the invasion by the erganizert of the United Mine Workers. They were not needed.
 Not any of these peace officers vers Baldwin-Felts employees but included only regularly chosen deputy sherirs and constaoles and other officers.
 When the United Mine Workers of America was formed in 1s9o it was rec ognized as a lawful organization. and continued as such until 1898. when they entered into conspiracy with the csn- tral competitive field 10 control the bi- luminous coal market of the United l States.
 Since 1912 t has been the policy of ] the United Mine Workers to compel. by
 the use of force in every conceivable way. ali persons engaged in the min
 ing industry to join the union, and t has likewise been Its policy 10 destroy
 all business of non-uaion opersgorS the end of which would mean the sub< jection of the coal industry or ths i United States to such unjust and ur-
 awful demands as It might desire tc put into force"
