COAL NEGOTIATIONS
#iH STRIKE A SNAG

Clevsland, O., Aug. Il = The
joint negotiations of the opera
tors and union labor leaders here
today designed to settle the soft
coal strike struck a snag at the
morning session. The operators
withdrew for a separate caucus at
which it is understood they dis
cussed what provision should be
made in the new wage agreement
for future negotiations between
operators and miners. This is
the chief question at issue today.
No concrete plan was offered by
the operators at the committee
meeting. Frank harrington, III
inois miners president, who yes
terday served notice he would not
regard any contract made here as
a foursstate agreement, rejoined
the committee today.

ONLY Mile OF
CONCRETE is DOWN
People Asking Why Lexington
Pike Contractors have Only
One Crew on Work

Although the Carey-Reed Co.,
Lexington contractors, have been
at work on the reconstruction of
the Lexington pike under state
and federal aid for almost five
months, only little over mile
has so far been completed, leav-
ing six miles yet to go before the
contract is fulfilled by the first
day of September. The contract
was made with the State High
way Commission. The work was
begun about May 1st. Good pro-
gress has been made this week.
Concrete has been spread to the
overhead bridge and the crew
have returned to the place where
they started working toward
Richmond ard at present are
working toward Lexington. All
materials that were coming to the
company by way of the railroad
have been cut off. All that is
being used on the road at prese
is being brought down the river
to Clay's Ferry and from there 10
the machines by truck. The worl,
going on at a fair rate but NJ
as fast as most people expected.
This has caused quite a bit of dis
cussion. Most of it is said to
hinge around the question why
the construction company has ncs
had TWO shifts OF men working.
out toward Lexington and the
other toward Richmond from the
place where the work started
which is about a mile from the
city limits of Richmond.
County officials Say that the
lnile of road that has been COM
p,eted will be in use about the
first of September. There is dirt
% the depth of two or three inch
es spread over the completed part
at present which vii be removed
August 18th so, that by Septem-
Der 1st the road may be ready for
use.

Rail HEADS AGREE
TO HARDING PLAN
With Modification That They
Take Back Only Shopraen
That Are Needed

New York, Aug. 12.-Execu-
tive heads of 148 American. rail-
ways last night conditionally act
cepted President Harding's sec
ond proposal for settlement of
the railroad shop strike.
This unofficial announcement
was made shortly after 7 o'clock
following a prolonged conference
which was surrounded by secre-
cy. Officially it was merely
stated that a committee repre-
senting virtually all railroads
would wait on President Harding
Saturday afternoon with the
program drafted by a committee
appointed by the Association of
Railway Executives and approx
ed by the body as a whole.
Conditions which went into the
acceptance, according to official
sources were:
FrSt--That the President s
request that the strikers be taken
back should be Interpreted that
as many strikers should be re
hired as should be needed by the
roads to bring their shop forces
to normal.
Second-That such strikers
should be taken back euncondi-
tionally and that the railroad
labor board later should deter
mine whether they were to re-
gain their seniority privileges.
President Harding had sug-
gested that all strikers be given
back their old jobs and that the
question of seniority be left to
the railroad labor board.
The position taken by the ex
ecutives was one they under
stood was neither antagonist:c
to the Presidents proposal or to
the stand they took a week age
Tuesday in saying that they
would have to stand by their
guarantees to their old employees
who had remained loyal and to
the new men employed in place
Of the strikers.

SH|PBU|L DING IS DECREASING
 BUT STILL HIGH
Boat Tonnage Being Under Construction Higher Than
 in Pre-War Days.

PORTLAND, Maine, Jan. 20.-The gross tonnage of ships produced in Maine shipyards during 1921 de- creased 38,000 tons as compared with the output for the preceding year. Statistics show that slightly over %, ,000 tons went down the ways last year, while in 1920 63.000 tons were sent over. While the figures show a large falling off from the peak of the industry, reached in 1913, when 116,000 gross tons were pro- duced, the output is 15,000 tons above that of the average pre-war produc- tion. Further declines are anticipat- ed this year.
 At Bath the shipbuilding center of the state, to which a majority of the 1921 production is credited, no work is said to be in sight except gov errment contract for five steel light ships.
 Several yards in Maine have be come involved in financial difficul ties and many others have ceased building because of lack of demand and the cost of operation. Although work has been stopped at most of the plants in the state, the builders claim the industry could be revived in a short time if it were necessary.
