numbers and are quartered in hotels
and with private families.
Many OF them are the families of

if IL were possible for them to get
through. many other women and chill
dren from the mining villages would
make their way to st. Adams until their
home region had become normal

also was ont of commission. he said.
When traffic was suspended three To-
comotives. a string of freight cars and
a complete passenger train were in the
vicinity Of the mining towns where the
men were congregating.
Many stories are heard here from the
people who have come from the mining
country regarding the situation there
when they left. They tell OF the con-
slant arrival of bands OF men from
many parts OF southern and central
West Virginia, all of them armed. II
Is also related that all work in the re-
eion has been abandoned, while bust
ness IL at q standstill.

President Harding should summon
operators and miners in West Virginia
to a conference as the best means OF
restoring order. James Lord. president
of the Mining Department of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor. said to-day.
II am convinced" he added. that IL
President Harding would request the
mine owners and the miners to confer
the parties so invited would consider the
summons equal to an order and would
come together.
"Once a conference was opened II
could not be closed without progress
toward agreement or without abatement
of some of the most grievous evils that
have driven men desperate In Mngo.
"The mine operators Of Mingo to-day
are in the position of defying a Govern
ment order. They have refused to APP
ply the United States Coal Commission
award of 1920, and that refusal is the
cause Of the strike out OF which the
present deplorable situation grew.
THE Government had duty to per-
form In view of the attitude or the op-
orators toward the Federal award.
AN impartial investigation by the
Government is timely. The situation is
one of common concern to the whole
country. The district can be pacified
on the surface but 1t can never be
brought into true cooperation and good
citizenship as a harmonious part OF the
State and country until Justice is done
on the basis OF finding OF fact.
President Harding has an opportu-
nifty to perform constructive, helpful
and just service by bringing together
the opposing forces in West Virginia"
