MEXICAN BANDITS
 RELEASE CITIZENS
 HELDFOR RANSOM
Connaly Asks Probe of Situa- ton With Regard to Pow CT of the 0bregon
 Government
By Associated Press

Washington, June 30.-American oil workers in the Tampico fields all had been released by bandits, who held them for ransom, on the face of full information as to what had oc- cured at two camps raided by the maurauders.
 today that the s5 persons held by the raiders at Pecera camp of the IaCorona company were mo longer held" He had previously estimated that half dozen Americans were in this group, and new representations that they be protected were sent to Mexico City by the department
 Censu' shaw was asked for q more detailed report of the most recent in- cldent in the oil fields. It was not known whether the bandits had been bought off or driven off by federal forces. and officials here continued the silence that has characterize their attitude since the report of the capture of A. Bruce Bielaskie.
 BieIasl<ie Connfved
 With regard to the statement made by Mexico City newspapers that Bic laslSie connlved in his own abduction officials had nothing whatever to say. It was pointed out that official information on the Bielaskie inciden nt Was confined to the few brief mes sases sent by Charke Summerlin in Mexico City. There has been no sug- gestion in any of these advices, it v as said, that tended to any sus- picion around the abduction.
 So far as recent events in Mexico may effect the question of American recognition of the Obregon govern. ment, the action today of Represen- tative Connally. democrat of Texas in laying before the House reso- lution proposing joint congressional inquiry into the branches of bandit depredations against Americans may be significant of the impression be- ing gained in Washington from the incidents. There was no discussioi of the resolution, but Mir, Connal, pointed out that If the published re- ports were accurate, they tended tc cast doubt on the ability of the Obre- gon government to maintain order while if they were not true, it was evident that some one was seeking tc injure the standing of that govern ment in the United States.

COAL MEN AWAIT FARLEY ID DEVISE
 MINE SETTLEMENT
Harding Will Describe Issues He Has Called Conference to ConSider-PersuaSion
 to Be Used
By Associated Pre-.

Washington, June 30.-All parties to the bituminous coal strike and to the suspension of work in anthracite regions postponed action in the situa- tion today awaiting the conference tomorrow which President Harding has summoned to devise settlement plans.
 Of the 50 men who will attend the conference here, half are miners union officials and three speak for the general committee of anthracite oper- ators. The delegates of the bitumin- ous employers still were unseiected tonight. However, A. NJ. Ogle. presl dent of the Coal association, to whoH the responsibility for making up bi- luminous representation was dele gated by President Harding, an- nounced that an adequate and open minded group would be present.
 high government official reiter- ated today that 1t was the adminis- trations purpose to let the partici- pants attempt to work out a settle ment in the conference. If progress Is not made. some other course may be adopted by President Harding aud his advisers but It was declared to- day the sovernment's efforts will be based on persuasion and not on com pulsion.
 President Harding in an address, 1t was said, will describe issues he has called them to discuss.
 Meet Difficulties
 Delay in naming the bitumlnous operators group was attributed today to difficulties in getting the widely scattered producing territories rep resented on short notice. There was no discussion forthcoming from eitaer the miners union officers or the coal operators who are here upon the controversial issues which have tied up union fields to indicate any weak ening on either side A general ex- pectation that the government would have suggestions to make to the con- ference in case the participants found 1t impossible to devise 8 work re- sumption plan existed in informed circles. but 1t was also evident that officials copcerned would mai1taiH silence on this until events forced a decision.
 Secretaries Hoover and Davis are expectedto sit in the gathering which will not be public.

 That work Is carried out by the "Big Four" brotherhoods, whose international presidents issued orders yesterday that their members should continue to carry out their usual duties despite any action of other em- ployes.

HARDING ID BACK RAILROAD BOARD
 IN ITS DECISION
Tribunal Is Really Government Talking When It Issues Decrees, Spokesman
 For President
By Associated Press

Washington, June 30.-The admin istration speaking today through the White House on the eve of the called strike of 400,00 union railroad shop workers, declared it's determina- tion to stand squarely behind the railroad labor board. It is because of the decisions of the board that the shop crafts men have decided to strike at 10 a. m. tomorrow.
 The administration view set forth ia general language as forcible as the spokesman could command. was that the labor board Is the one agency of the government dealing with disputes between the roads and their employees and therefore it's de- crees must and would be backed up by the government.
 Hoard Is Government
 The labor board "is, the govern ment when 1t speaks" was the way the spokesman summed up the ad- ninistration view. adding that this view held whether the boards de- cisions drew the protest of labor or ganizations because they involve cuts in wages or whether they were pro- tested by the railroads because they required the arrangements to desist ir contracting out repair work to private shops. The decisions of the board, the administration further was asserted to hold, are by the dele- gated authority of Congress and in a field definitely marked by law.
 The administration pronounce ment was made just few minutes after there occurred in Chicago what Chairman Hooper of the labor board dc clared to be flouting of a gov ernment body by B. M, Jewell, head or the railroad department of the American Federation of Labor, namely, the refusal of Mir. Jewell and some of his colleagues to answer a summons of the board. Whether the administration view went so far as take further action therefore was a question left open for the time be- ing. The general belief, however. was that as the transportaticn act clothed the lshai board witA no powers to enforce it's decision there were no steps left for the govern- ment to take at this stage except to maintain It's stand behind the board 8 decisions.
 Officials Concerned
 Generally speaking officials ap- pcsred more concerned over the flouting of the boards authority than they were over the shopmen's g walk ~out.
 Officials for several weeks have watched the gathering storm clouds in railroad labor quarters but as 1t grew more and more apparent that the strike would be held to the shop crafts with possibly the maintain ence of way and some other workers joining but with the train operating forces remaining out of the strike a feeling of relief has been expressed.
 The strike at the outset at least will not stop the operation of trains and that. in the view of the adminis- trative officials of the government. Is the important point. Leaders in Congress seem to take the same view and except in one or two instances there has been no move to Inter- vene

1 Y NCH BILL GETS FAVORABLE REPORT
 FROM COMMITTEE
Vote Is 8 to 6 in Favor of Dyer Law, Though Constitu- tionaIity of Measure
 Is Questioned
By Assoclated Press

Washington, June 30. = The Dyer anti-lynching bill, providing for ini- position of penalties by the federal
 government for mob action. was re- portd favorably with amendments to- day by the Senate judiciary committee
 by a vote of to 6.
 Eight republicans. Chairman Nelson. Minneseta; Dillingham;. Vermont: Brandesee. Connecticut; Cummins. Iowa: Colt, Rhode Island; Sterling. South Dakota; Erinst, Kentucky and Shortrldge. California. voted in favor of the bill. One republican. Senator
 Borah of Idaho. and five democrats. cuibsrson. Texas; overman. North carolina; Reed, Missouri. Shields, Tennessee and Walsh. Montana, were recorded In opposition Senators Ashurst, democrat Arizona. and Nor ris. republican, Nebraska. did not vote.
 The vote today ended long com
 mittee fight over the bill which was passed last January by the House and which has been urged by negro and other organizations. Opponents of the measure have declared 1t an unconstitutional interference with
 state rights.
 Few Changes Made Comparatively few changes were
 made In the original House bill and
 were said to be designed to meet the
 constitutional objections. A sub committee of the Senate committee
 recently recommended defeat of the bill on the ground that it violated the constitution. Some senators vot- ing today for a favorable report were said to hold doubts regarding it's constitutionality but thought the bill
 should be enacted and put to the su- preme court
 The bill declares that If states fall neglect or refuse to maintain protec- ton of life they shall be deemed to have denied the constitutional guar
 antees and the federal authorities will have power to act by indictment of state officers or members of a mob and trial in the federal courts The measure requires reasonable efforts by state officers to maintain order and protect prisoners, and the.r failure would subject them to im- prisonment for five years and fine
 of 5000. Members of mobs in which 8 prisoner Is put to death would be
 subject to conviction for conspiracy with Imprisonment for five years tc be provided. Counties in which fatal mob disc rders occur would be liable to the family of the victim under a forfeit of sio.ooo.
 Amendments adopted by the Senate cc cmmittee require failure of the stat. officers to protect mob victims musi
