NORTHWESTERN ARRIVED IN SEATTLE THIS MORNING

Practically all of the herring that was unloaded today is to be shipped to New York, where a heavy demand for the product is reported.

Industrial Leaders Claiming Plants De Closed Unless Rail
 Strike Settled Soon

CHICAGO, July 25. - The two big strikes which continue to feature the countrys news were kept before the public today by an announcement credited to the leaders of several great industries that unless a speedy settlement of the controversy was eff fected, the closing of the industrial plants, might soon be expected The resultant effect will be widespread un- employment, a crippling of all public utility service, and the possibility of food and fuel rationing under national control Most of the big steel plants will be closed during August. In New York it is openly asserted that indus trial coal is not obtainable at any price. In Chicago the prices of bitu- minous fuel are raising. In the mean time despite an expectant nation, President Harding remains silent re- garding the rail strike The wish may be father to the thought, but there is a strong belief that definite action by the administration to end the rail strike may be expected within the week

FIRE SITUATION STILL CRITICAL
 IN WASHINGTON

OLYMPIA, July 25.-The forest fire situation throughout Washington is still critical according to an annunce- ment today made by State Forester Fred E. Pape. He stated that the most serious of the new blazes were raging in Grays Harbor County, where two large fires were threaten ing to get out of hand. Another bad conflagration started two days ago in Stevens County and despite des- perate efforts of the fire fighters has not yet been controlled. The wealth CT conditions have improved slight ly. The hot sultry weather has pass ed, and has been succeeded by dis tinctly cool winds. However rain is what is needed to quench the blazes. and nothing else will effectually re- move the danger. There has been no real rain in this state for more than two months. At present every sec tion of the state is partly burning as far as the timber is concerned

NEW MOVE BY RAILROADS

NEW YORK, July 25. - It was learned today that the Eastern rail roads are planning to use the ma chine shops and facilities of the ship yards to repair their locomotives and rolling stock during the shopmen's strike. It is reliably reported that the companies have already let some con tracts to the shipbuilding companies. and survey of the yards is being made to determine the extent of their facilities. Some of the strike leaders today declared that the shipyard work CTS would not allow themselves to be used as strikebreakers, but spokesmen for the rail companies are confident that the men are willing to. do the work, as the yards are quiet at pres ent and work scarce.

HOOVER TAKES
 MINERS SIDEIN
 CONTROVERSY

WASHINGTON, July 24-Coal min CTS are paid cheaply for their labor, considering the hazards of their work and other factors, government off cials are convinced, after a study of the miners side of the controversy with the operators.
 The human element in coal produc- tion at last is recognized by the gov ernment as the chief thing to be weighed in coal strike settlements.
 One of the chief spok for the administration in coal problems Secretary Hoover-declared emphati. cally that permanent settlement of coal strike troubles, present or future, can only be possible by removing from coal production the ever-present dan. ger of intermittency.
 As long as the industry is so con, stituted that coal mines are allowed to stagger along, working two or three days a week and keeping men em- ployed only part of the time, strikes are inevitable.
 This element of "intermittency," MT. Hoover is convinced, has led to much ofthe trouble which now con- fronts the country by tie-up of most of the soft coal mines. In other words the coal mine laborer is worthy of his hire and should be assured reasonable wage and reasonable periods of em- ployment.
 Besides doing the most undesirable

GOVERNMENT SILENCE BROKEN

WASHINGTON, July 25. The White House broke it's silence suffi- ciently today to say that in regard to the rail strike. the Railroad Labor Board was the agency created by law for handling questions such as are at issue between railway companies and the striking shopment. The admins tration can take no other stand than to uphold the law. Therefore, the Labor Board remains the only agency through which the government can or will deal with the strike situation. President Harding is in constant con- tact with the board and is being daily advised of all developments.

form of labor, the miner works at the whim of a system which may or may not so manipulate the production strings-and in turn production prices that the average worker gambles on the size of his pay envelope from week to week.
 Government records now show that the coal miner receives a lower annual wage than workers in most other in- dustries. It is the time out of work that puts crimp in his wallet and leaves him owing the grocer and the landlord If he has family his risks are even greater There is lacking that assurance which ultimately must be given the miner, of reasonable cer- tainty of length of employment.
 Just how the element of intermit- tent employment can best be over come is not yet clearly indicated. Some suggestions have been made that the operators themselves must take the lead and reform their own industry. If they do not, say some government observers, the govern ment may in the end be forced to take a hand and attempt a solution of what is now regarded on all sides as a major problem, along with the rail road problem.

MOVE IS SIGNIFICANT

CHICAGO, July 25. - Preparations for the formation of new unions of shop workers by forty Eastern rail- roads were begun yesterday by L. F. LOree, Eastern Regional chairman of the Association of Railway Executives. This is the most significant move in recent strike developments as it is now apparent that the strike cannot be peaceable settled The formation of the new union is the answer of the roads to the demands of the strikers for restoration of seniority rights.
