SENATORSDEPLAY
LITTLE FAVOR FOR
NORRIS FARM BILL
Z
Lodge Declares Measure
Would Hurt Finances
OF Nation.

The administrators weight was
thrown against the Norris farm ex-
port bill pending in the Senate yes
terday when Senator Lodge. the
Presidents spokesman. urged its de-
feat as a menace to the nations
economic structure.
Enactment of the measure, which
would create a Federal corporation
capitalized at 500. 900, 900. with th2
additional power TO float a bond is
sue OF $1,000. 900. 900. TO finance the
sale of surplus American farm prod
ucts abroad. would be absolutely
destructible" to the credit Of the
country, the Senator declared.
Eject on Bonds.
Its immediate effect, he predict
ed, would be to hurt the value of
Liberty bonds
III the bonds of this corpora
tion were thrown on the market now
with the guaranty OF the govern
ment. with the exemptions proposed
in the bill and at a rate of interest
Of per cent. we will say. or 5Iz d.
which has been proposed for rural
credits" Senator Lodge declared. 1t
would almost destroy our Liberty
bonds.
Can Place Bonds.
81 have heard it argued that these
bonds could not be placed. but un-
der the language of this bill the
corporation can make a bond that
can be placed. and placed to the
great detriment Of the entire credit
Of the country. 1t is an extraordi-
nary power to give"
Criticism also was expressed by
the Senator of the provisions Of the
bill giving the export corporation
power to fix preferential rates on
the domestic transportation of agri-
cultural products. BY this power.
he declared. the corporation would
be able to stihe competition and
could arrest and fix a price that
would paraIyze business"

'MINCO OPERATORS
! SAY COMPETITORS
PLOTTED TROUBLE
Charge Effort to Raise
Costs to Higher.
Levels. ,

Charges that mine owners of IL
linois, Indiana, Ohio and Western
Pennsylvania conspired with the
miners to unionlze the West Vir-
ginia coal fields and destroy their
competitive advantage" were mad.
by counsel for the operators yester-
day at the Senate inquiry of the
Mingo mine war.
Thomas l.. Lewis, secretary Of the
New River Coal Operators Associa-
ton. witness for the operators, went
into the history of the United Mine
Workers of America and their ef-
forts to unionize the West Virginia
coal fields. beginning in 1897.
Explains First Effort.
The strike in 1902 to force recog-
milton of the union in the West Vir-
fiinia fields cost the union S3SO,0Oo
in benefits for its members, the
witness declared. Lewis said a
large part of this money was OBJ
tanned from operators in the CEN
tral competitive field.
This money. he explained, was OBJ
tained through "a check off sys-
tenn" The union officials, he said,
forced the operators TO hold out a
portion of the wages of the miners
to pay their union dues.
Counsel for the operators read
into the record a report Of a con-
ference between union officials and
operators of the central competi-
tive coal field at which an agree
ment was entered into.
Raise Production Cost.
According to this agreement the
operators raised wages and short
ened working hours, with the under
standing that the miners were to
unionize the West Virginia and
Kentucky fields in order to increase
their cost OF production.
Belcher. representing the oper-
atOrs. read from debates of the
miners convention at Indianapolis
in 1912. at which the constitution
was changed, to show the interpre-
tation of the full social value of
the fruits of our labor" He in
sisted that IL was accepted to mean
all the miners create and that the
operations have no interest in their
business
Brings Laugh From Miners.
This statement brought a laugh
from the miners side OF the COM
mittee table. Members Of the COM
mittee expressed impatience with
the procedure of going into ancient
history"
Il merely want to show that a
conspiracy was entered into and
the steps taken by both parties to
1t to carry ii out" declared Belcher.
I'm also going to show that in 1912
the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea left the trade union movement
and that it became socialistic and
anarchistic. That policy obtains to-
day.
Reads From Reports.
Belcher read extracts from
miners convention at which high
oficials urged the miners to Garry
on guerilla warfare" in the West
virginia coal fields.
5. B. Montgomery, counsel for the
miners. objected to the reading Of
the documents. He said that "aiI OF
those meetings were open TO the
public and the press and the reports
are all in the Congressional library" -"
