KANSAS MINERS ARE
ORDERED TO RETURN
President Howat of the Kansas
Coal Miners VIII Disregard
Conventions Order.
az The AssoeIated Pressl

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept. Is
Alexander Howat, president of the
Kansas coal miners, was directed to-
day by the vote Of the convention Of
the United Mine Workers of America
to order strikers at two Kansas mines
back to work, but Immediately after
the conventions decision he declared
he would not carry out the order. NO
announcement was made by the union
officials what steps, if any, would be
taken to enforce the decision. In vot-
ing, the convention had before it Now
ats assertion that he would be ex-
PEELED from the union before he would
obey such an order.
BY its vote, the convention sus-
tanned President John L. Lewis and
other international officials in order
ing the resumption of work, which had
not been obeyed by Howat All OF
the anti administration element was
lined up behind Howat, but the roll
call showed an unofficial majority of
926 for order, the vote being 2,701 to
1,775. Howat's opposition TO the order
was that It would support operators
seeking TO violate contracts with min
ers by imposing new working condi-
tons but President Lewis declared
the. issue was whether the union held
its own men to the fu1hllment Of
their contracts.
Howat's fight with administration
leaders ended for the convention with
the disposition OF the Kansas strike
cases. He expected to leave here
early tomorrow to appear in court at
(L1ltIr71l9l1s on Friday and declared he
would go to jail rather than give the
bond required by the court not to call
any more strikes. The disposition of
the Kansas cases which had been be-
fore the convention since Friday also
cleared the way for more rapid
progress in convention work. but the
end Of the session was not yet in
sight.

il is not the most desirable method OF
bringing hostilities TO an end. it is the
best thing that can be done under the

They hold that it is better 10 bring

questioned today by the Pensacola Jour
nails correspondent
1t is useless TO think now OF dealing
with the Versailles treaty which was
killed by the senate, and we must deal
with the treaty right before us. II is
highly desirable now To take some action
which viii restore trade and commerce
with Germany, and this the separate
peace treaty will do, although it is not
ezzctly what we would like 1t seems
that we cannot lose a great deal now
BY making the separate peace which
grants us every advantage OF the Yer
sailles treaty"
Senator Fletcher said: Il was in favor
at the outset OF ratining the Versailles
treaty as It stood. and later preferred
accepting it with the Lodge amendments.
rather than vote against il, lnd was cp-
posed to separate peace. I believed a
separate peace with Germany an aban-
donment Of our allies almost dishonorable
and unthinkable.
"But now with the Versailles treaty
killed by the senate and the separate
peace treaty having been adopted as .ia
policy of the government. the question
is whether we shan make a separate
treaty or not any at all This treaty APP
pears to protect our interests and belieV-
ing it would be a mistake to defeat it,
