Will Be Named TO Han
die Situation

program will begin To function within
AS hours.
Secretary Hoover, in making this
announcement to-day, said that rati-
fcation OF the emergency plan for dis
tribntion and restriction Of the un-
fair prices By the operators associa-
tion was expected within AZ hours but
II cooperation was withheld in any
district, the government would pro-
eeed to appoint the necessary local
committees.
The emergency coal control plan. Mr..
Hoover stated, was intended to apply
to all coal produced. whether In the
non union or union fields, and it was
indicated that service orders BY the
Interstate commerce commission pro-
siding priorities in the ALLEGATION Of
coal cars, might be expected almost
immediately Az regards the coal
strike itself, Mr.. Hoover declared the
government had exhausted every
means toward settlement, that ii
had offered arbitration which had been
rejected and that the matter to be
taken care Of now was the distribution
of coal ais produced.
He emphasized the intention Of the
government to prevent the advance Of
coal prices and declared that under the
emergency program. no freight cars
would be allocated to those who tried
sto rob the public Sharp advances
in prices have been reported to the

tiles. he said, reaching as high as
$3.50 ton in western Kentucky.
Possible enactment Of new legisla-
tion in connection with the govern
ment's emergency coal control program
was indicated by Mr.. Hoover. He de-
clared that no legislation was neces
sary to institute the plan, but inti-
mated that should its operation be re-
qnired for any considerable length of
time. legislation might be necessary
to defray the expenses Of the organi-|
zation.

tee, ii was believed at the commerce

in the drafting Of the governments
plan, which would comprise Secretary
Hoover as chairman, b. Esterline Of the

THE ELECTION

The result of the election last Tues

The Republican landslide of two
years ago has meant little to us. The
people in general were not satisfied
At the conclusion of the landslide two
years ago we said that if the Republi
cans really desired to carry out the
principles that gave their party its
birth, there could be no excuse for
not doing so with Republican presi
dent and both branches of Congress
overwhelmingly Republican.
But the Republicans didn't "desire. u
The people wanted a change from
Democratic rule and they got it. The
Republicans have not lived up to the
expectations of the people, they did
not return conditions to normalcy as
the people expected they would, and
they Stunned many things that they
could have "put over" And so the
people desired a change, even though
it was from bad to worse, right in
the middle of the stream they
"sWapped horses" The result of
which remains to be seen. So.

ample Of the extent of injury that

crowded in the night that passen-
gers were forced to lie down in the
aisles, women holding their babies in
their arms. Other passengers, por-
ters and. the conductors walked over
them. The white coach in the inn
mediate rear was only half full.
At Hamlet, N. c., the dead woman
was put on the train. Some Of the
riders in the overcrowded coach
were permitted to go into the bag
gage car with the corpse. They
sat on It, as did the husband, hold
ing in his arms seven months-
baby. johnson was forced to ride
into Raleigh in that manner.
