Senate Committee

WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.-Ths writ
ing of "a mere report" by The Senate
committee Investigating West Virginia
coal mine disorders will avail nothing
IN the direction Of a settlement of the
long standing controversy, Winthrop D.
Lane, New York newspaper correspond
ent and magazine writer, declared TO-
day in testimony before the committee
He was called by the committee to give
his views after an inquiry which he
had conducted into conditions of yio-

Replying to questions by Chairman

quire the exercise of craftsmanship

the trouble, but he did not enter into
a detailed explanation Of this method
for bringing the miners and their en-
ployees together.
Mr.. Lanes testimony came in the
course of day of frank discussion of
the situation by H. c. Ogden, publisher
OF "The Wheeling News and Intel

west Virginia operator running union

west Virginia state administration for
failure to put through legislation

alleged abuses of the mine guard sys-

Roads Will
Seek Wage
Cut Demands


Board, pointing out that conditions now
existing before the board should re-
move any immediate occasion for strife,
This memorandum was submitted to
the railroad executives here, but was
not brought before the railroad
brothedhoods until yesterday. when Ben
w. Hooper conferred with union
leaders.
The resolution then says: eve inter
pret the foregoing memorandum to
mean number of important things to
the membership of our organizations.
Among these things we mention:
First, it is evident that the board
has adopted a policy under which it
sideration to any application affecting
tho wages OF transportation employees
for considerable length of time.
Second, that it does not propose to
take any action on wage applications
affecting any class Of employees until
it is definitely known what working
conditions apply.
Third, that the train and engine
service employees will be given full
consideration In view of the hazard,
responsibilities and other conditions
peculiar to their employment"
The resolution then notes the
crowded condition Of the Labor Board
docket and the failure of the carriers
and their employees to organize volun-
tary adjustment boards, whose work
would prevent numerous cases coming
up TO the board.
1--WE construe this to mean that the
Labor Board will lend It's support to
the organizations in their efforts to
induce the carriers to speedily organize
such adjustment boards" the resolu-
tion said.
Continuing, the resolution said: at
has become apparent that the powers
in control of che railways have SO ar
ranged conditions as to shift the bur
den and expense of a strike to the
shoulders of the people.
with this information before us we
feel that solemn obligation rests
upon US to forego the full satisfaction
Of our demands rather than to cause
loss and suffering to the people by
carrying on strike, tho expense and
hardships of which would fall upon
the people instead of upon the rail
roads.
"As a result Of the activities Of these
organizations since July, the public is
assured reduction In freight and pas

until President Harding got busy. He
told the board the railroad strike prob

the President, 1t is said, will not know
the answer. But persons close to tho
!Administratson hold to the wew tho
President will favor uniting the board
and the Interstate Commerce Commits
handle future railroad problems.
Against Abolishing Board
Inc Administration, it is understood,
has little sympathy with a movement
that is under way to abolish the board
and throw the whole question of wages
and working conditions back to the
roads and employees. Radical thought
among employers and labor favors this
course.
President Samuel Gompers Of the
American Federation Of Labor declared
to-day in favor of abolishing the board.
He charged that the board did not
avert the strike; that it almost caused
the strike. He seems to think the union
chiefs and the roads would have bean
able to get together If left alone.
Congress is not likely to listen to
those who want to go to extremes, The
purpose Of the Esch Cumm'ns act was
to give the roads and employees a fair
deal and at the same time insure unin
terrupted transportation. Apparently
the. Administration and Republican
leaders in Congress want to take such
steps now as are necessary to prevent
another threat such as the country has
just experienced
There has been some talk of putting
penalty In tho anti-strike clause Of
the act, but this appears now to be un-
necessary. Whether the Labor Board
continues as ct present or is Joined
sion, the government is In O position to
enforce decisions without gcvere pen-
atty clause such as Senator Cummins
proposed two years ago.

"1n the face Of general unemploy-

hclent points to warrant calling off the

not be reduced further for at least an

that which will be given today at the

Two two-reeIers will be given as a
part of the regular program. One is

the other is spot CASH" a Hal
Roach comedy. The Pathe Review
will also be presented. Then as a
special added attraction in the after
noon, Charlie Chaplin will be seen in
The Champion" a reissue feature.
This is given especially for the
youngsters and will be shown i'm
mediately following the regular pro-
gram. Older folks may, of course,
stay for the picture if they wish.
The amazing versatility of Sessue
Hayakawa has never had greater
scope for expression than in BLACK
Roses"
AS Yoda, an humble gardener on a
millionaire's estate, who is falsely
accused and imprisoned for his mas
ter's murder and then disguised as a
Chinese prince. seeks vengeance on
his enemies, Hayakawa runs the
gamut of human emotions. BY the
magic of his art. the character be-
comes a living, pulsating being who
dominates the entire production.
This photodrama, which is the
third in a series Of super specials
being made by Hayakawa for Rob-
ertson- Cole, was written especially
for the star by E. Richard Schayer.

Miss Marlowe, who act only each all
tentative year, opened their season

feeling certain that the great inter-
est throughout Maine would be suf-

eminent co-stars.
Four Shakespearean dramas will
be acted by Mr.. Sothern and Miss

presented on Monday night and at
