COAL STRIKE TAKES IT'S COURSE

COAL STRIKE TAKES IT'S COURSE
Despite the fact that Congress has
had a committee investigating the coal
strike, and that in addition the De-
partment Of justice is busy with prose-
cutions in relation to the industrial up
heaval, there is an apparent DISPOSE
ton in the National Capital to let the
coal strike take it's course. AS there
is neither coal shortage nor cold
weather to aggravate the situation,
the public interest in the strike is not
acute outside of the regions in which
the mines are located. Some stimu-
lus has been given to the suggestion
that labor and arbitration boards be
set up by the Government, but in Con-
gress where measures along these
lines are pending, there appears to be
al inertia that promises very little for
the immediate success Of any such
legislative methods. eva cchful wait

policy with reference to the coal

Mayor Hylan of New York, told the

courts were accustomed to refuse the
common rights claimed by the COM
mon people. Mayor Hylan's IMAM

There does not seem to be the least
likelihood that Congress will disturb
existing conditions Of jurisdiction in
the Federal and State courts: and
there is no likelihood that the propos-
ais of the Bacharach bill. which
caused the hearings, will be accepted.
The matter is interesting principally
because the agitation Of estate rights

strikes-they show up every year.

HOOPER SAYS SENIORITY
MIGHT NEVER COME UP
fndorses Harding's NeU Plan
as Safe and Sane.

CHICAGO. Aug. s.--The President in his
latest proposition to the railways and
the striking shopmen has found the
safe and sane position Of fairness and
conservatism" Ben Hooper. chairman OF
the railway labor board. announced to-
day.
On many railroads. he said. the plan
can be carried out without inconveni-
ence. More than $4,000 shopmen had
been laid Off before the strike, the state
ment added. ana with the increased
work now available so many men will
be needed that ION very large number
OF roads, in my Judgment, the question
OF seniority woui1 never arise" he con-
tinued.
'-rhe Presidents proposition Is fair
and practical It would conserve the
law. would sacrifice the rights of neither
party and would save the country from
theAfurther III effects of the strike. II
was to be anticipated that there would
be some objections to II on both sides.
but such objections are not insuperable.
The concurrent condemnation OF OPP
posite extremes raises a suspicion that
the President must have found the safe
and sane position of fairness and con-
| scrvatlsm.'
