troublesome conditions in the mining
industry The second proposal was
said to have been received fayorably
by the employers. but was rejected
by the miners as too complicated D.
indications at the Whit House to-
day were that the President and his
Cabinet at long session had decided
to await developments for while in
both industries before taking drastic
action in the immediate future and
Government seizure Of tho roads and
the mines
The Railroad Labor Board remains
the only agency through which the
Government can ana viii deal with the
strike situation, though the President
is continuing to hold himself in CON
tact with all actions which the board
takes in the matter, it was said AT the
White House
The Administration in the railroad
strike, as in the coal strike contro-
Nersy, II was asserted, intends to pro
ceed in fairness to the interests in,
volved and with the determination to
maintain the dignity and majesty Of
the United states Government. In ac-
cordance with this policy IT believes
that all labor controversies should hc
placed before the Railroad Labor
Board, the sole authority under the
acts OF Congress.
