HARDING AND CONGRESS IN
CLOSE COOPERATION ABOUT
ESSENTIALS SAYS MONDELL!

gard to the military establishment is
much more nearly in harmony with
theaction which has been taken by
the House than it is with the attitude
of the majority of the newspapers
and newspaper writer's who have as
sumeG to know and to promulgate
his views"
After Mr.. Mondcll had read his state
ment to the House. Representative
Garrett, Tennessee. the Democratic
leader, declared that he was convinced
that certain newspapers do not mis-
represent the attitude Of the piesi-
dent"
IF there is not a sharp difference OF
gross on the army bill as passed yes
terday by the House. then there must
be a sharp difference of opinion be-
tween the president and the secretary
Of war" Mr.. Garrett said. "If the
president and Congress are not az odds
on the naval program. then there is
4 distressing difference Of opinion,
sufficient to break up cabinet meet
inp between the president and the Sec
rotary of the navy"
The president told you that II you
wanted to pass bonus bill you should
provide sales tax" Mr.. Garrett de-
clared. addressing his remarks to Re-
punbilcan members. What became of
that proposition? Wasn't there diff
ference of opinion on that point be-
tween Congress and the PRESIDENT
After rcmarking that the president
had vainly appealed TO the Republican
Congress to speed up action on the
tariff. Mr. Garrett asked: Whats be-
come of the tariff bill. anyway"
Representative Garner. Democrat.
Texas, declared it was Significant that
the president had let 1t he known that
during the coming campaign he would
not go out and defend Congress"

"would have removed any stigma of
bad faith"
There may be faults on both
sides of this bituminous dispute" he
declared. "but the side that openly
repudiates it's written and signed OBJ
legations has crippled its case before
the bar of public opinion"
The agreement rcpudiated, the
statement explained, was that con-
tanned in the wage contract between
operators and miners in the central
competitive fields. including Illinois,
Indiana, Ohio and western Pennsyl-
vania. which has constituted the
basic wage contract for all other coal
fields in former years.
Further complications in the coal
industry, Mr.. Davis continued, were
due to the existence OF over produc-
ton, amounting to fully 80 percent
over development in the bituminous
fields" One result of this, it was
pointed out, was to leave available in
storage new stocks Of coal estimated
at ten million tons for anthracite
and 65.O00.000 tons for bituminous.
This means that railroads, public
utilities, manufacturing INDUSTRIES
and retail dealers will have OH hand
Saturday nearly two months supply"
Mr.. Davis concluded. 1.-The operators
state that production from non-union
mines will meet at least so percent
of the normal needs OF the country.
"""s AS the strike in the bitumip-
Gus industry is inevitable the indus
| try is squarely on trial before the
public. At this stage it is simply an
economic dispute in which the chief
sufferers will be the miners and the,
| operators themselves. The admin
! istration will watch the developments
and be ready to safeguard the public
welfare whenever it is menaced."
! ANY rise in prices. he said, should
be reported to Washington at once
| for action by the attorney general"

British government will submit to
! parliament a vote, not exceeding
G 100000 for the ministry of labor
in northern Ireland to be expended
exclusively in relief work, one third
for the benefit of Catholics and two
thirds for Protestants. The northern
signatories agree to use every effort
to secure the restoration of the ex-
PEELED workmen and wherever this
proves impracticable owing to trade
depression they will be afforded en-
ployment on relief work.
Tenth: The two governments
will ask parliament for grant, not
exceeding 100000 for relief work in
northern Ireland.
Tenth: The two governments
can, in cases agreed upon between
the signatories, arrange for the re-
lease of political prisoners in prison
for offenses committed before the
date hereof No offenses commit
ted after March 81 shall be open to
consideration.
Eleventh: The two governments
unite in appealing to all concerned
to refrain from lnflammatory
speeches and to exercise restraint IN
the interests of peace.
The agreement was signed on be-
half of the provisional government
by Michael Collins. canon j. Dug
gan and Arthur Griffith, for the
northern government by Sir James
Craig, the marquis of Londonderry
and L.. A. Archdale and for the i'm
perial government by Winston
Churchill. Sir g-Worthingtor-
Evans and Sir Hamer Greenwood.
The fact that the representatives
of the Dublin, Belfast and Imperial
governments set their signatures to
such an agreement is regarded in
political circles as the most signifi-
cant and weighty happening since
the Irish treaty was signed.
The morning sitting was by the
small conference. In the after
noon the full conference assembled
and discussed the situation for two
hours. This evening there was an
other gathering for the final drafting
| of the agreement and its signature.
! At the conclusion of the conference.
Sir Hamer Greenwood. chief secIe-
tary for Ireland came from the room
in which the proceedings had taken
place and said TO the waiting news
paper men:
"A most satisfactory agreement
| has been reached Thank God for
that"
After Mr.. Churchill had read the
| terms of the agreement in the house
of commons this evening. Sir Donald
| MacLean, national liberal. said that
not only the house of commons. but
the whole country and the British
| commonwealth, would rejoice. There
were two points he added. that he
regarded with the greatest nope
First, that the members of the two
beIligerent parties which hitherto
had been in conflict in Ireland had
united in a common effort to main
tain law and order. and Second. that
some effort was to be made for unity
in Ireland. All joined in fervent
PRAYER, he declared. that this might
be the first step toward the founda-
ton Of real and lasting peace.
