Railways Report Increase
in Soft Coal Production

Washington, Aug. 2.-(By A. P.)
-Bituminous production began in
creasing again this week and, accord
ing to figures compiled by the rail-
roads, 14,768 cars were loaded with
coal at the mines Monday, the latest
day for which output has been re-
ported. This compares with an
average of about 1900 cars per day
produced last week and with a high
point of approximately 1900 cars,
which has only been attained on one
April 1.
Mondays output in tons, it was
estimated, was above 100000 and If
maintained through the week would
give a total bituminous production of
approximately 100000 tons, or
about half of the normal consump-
tion.

President Harding's settlement pro-
posal, which railway executives

Tuesday.
The union men have been debating
the question two days. From the
outset it has been predicted they
would approve the White House

ers would return to work with senior
ity and pension rights unimpaired. :.
The refusal of the carriers to fall
in line, it was pointed out. makes it
possible for the union chiefs to argue
that full responsibility for continue

executives.
More than 100 union leaders,
headed by B. M. Jewell, chief OF the
shopcrafts, have participated in the
Sheridan Plaza hotel sessions. Wed

Omaha Strikers
Urge President to
Take Over Roads
Resolution Drafted Here Tele
graphed to National Execu-
tive-Opening Of Mines
Also Asked.

Omaha rail strikers appealed to
President Harding yesterday to take
oyer the roads and run them for serv-
ice and not for profits only" in a
telegraph dispatch to him sent yes
terday afternoon.
The appeal to the president is in
the form of a resolution unanimously
passed by the Omaha local shopcraft
federation. America is no place
for czars and cmperors; railway
owners must be stopped in their pre-
datory career or chaos will reign be-
fore the snow falls" reads a part of
the resolution.
The Message.
The message follows:
."We hereby resolve that we be-
lieve the workers have the right to,
and are entitled to, fair days wages;
our right to freedom must be recog-
nized and railroad ownership shall
not be considered superior to the
government or allowed to dictate the
governments policy.
"Put up the sword of military pro-
lection! Close the jail doors which
were opened by federal Injunction for
the reception of honest workers who
ask but Justice. Take over the roads
and run them for service and not for
profits only.
7 "Open the Mines"
open the mines and let the ma
tion live in peace and prosperity
America is no place for czars and
emperors! Railway owners must be
stopped in their predatory career or
chaos will reign before snow falls.
DO it now."
The resolution is signed by H. E..
Gates and J. B. Watley, president
and secretary, respectively, of the
federated shopcrafts.
Railroad officials in Omaha were
pleased with the refusal Of the ex-
ecutives to agree to reinstate strik-
ing shopmen with seniority rights
unimpared. Men to take the place of
strikers are being hired in larger
numbers each day, according to rail
officers, who predicted a general
break in union ranks if negotiations
for settlement are stopped.
One prominent union man de-
clared yesterday that many of the
strikers did not consider the senior
ity. issue seriously.

Secretary OF commerce a0oveTs
the presidents closest adviser in the
strike situation, held . long confer.
cnce with Mr.. Harding. following
his return from New York where he
addressed the rail executives At the
opening Of their meeting Tuesday.
Upon leaving the White Houes Mr..
Hoover refused to discuss the strike
situation other than to say that
everything was up to the president
Allow Situation to Ddift.
Secretary of War Weeks also con-
ferred with the president. He ex-
pressed the view that no immediate
move would be made and that the
administration would be inclined to
allow the situation to drift for few
days.
It was generally believed that Mr..
Harding would make reply to both
The executives and the strikers with
in the next day or two and that he
would take advantage Of the occa-
sion to point out that the full re-
sponsibility for continuation Of the
strike rests upon the executives.
In some quarters it was predicted
he would invite the strikers to 60
back to work at once and leave the
seniority question to be settled by
the railroad labor board. Under
this plan the men would demand
their old status and when this was
denied them they could carry the
case to the labor board. the author
ity Of which both sides have now
agreed to recognize.
Plan Regarded Unlikely.
This plan, however, was declared
to be unlikely by senator's who took
part in the writing of the Cummins-
Esch law. They took the view that
the labor board could not properly as
sumo jurisdiction over the seniority
question unless both sides asked it to.
The opinion among competent OBJ
servers was that the administration
would simply mark time and give the
railroads an opportunity to prove that
they could operate effectively without
the services of the striking shopmen.
Roads which are not able to operate
effectively, particularly coal, carriers
reaching into the producing btu
ninous fields, may be taken over and
operated by the federal government
pending the settlement of the strike.

An interesting "inside" story Of
how the presidents peace plan failed
is going the rounds in Washington.
1t was asserted on excellent author
ity that the plan which the White
House announced yesterday and
which the executives so promptly re-
jected, is not the same one which Mr..
Harding tentatively proposed to T.
Dewitt Cuyler at the White House
on Thursday. The presidents orig
inal proposal, it was said, contained
five points-the one he made public
Tuesday contained only three. Just
what notifications were made could
not be learned, but they were belived
to have related to the seniority ques-
ton and that they were important

with evident relish testimony before the Fall committee which was un- friendly to Mexico and which was en- tirely satisfactory to the organized oil interests. As matter of fact, the oil interests can be injured but little by an exposition now of what they were doing from a year to a year and a half ago. The Hearst publications could not have been in ignorance of the character of the National Asso- station for the Protection of American Rights in Mexico at the time when that organization was most bitterly engaged in propaganda and intrigue, because sufficient information was available to them, as to all other pub Gcations, to indicate specifically what was that character.
 Furthermore, in addition to the in formation which was made available about this particular organization, the Pan-American Federation of Labor subsequently made public protest against intrigue against Mexico which was being carried on in the border states of the United States.
 What MT Hearst is saying now is interesting and 1t is to be hoped that all possible information not yet ob- tanned Will De secured ana made pup lie, but however important that may be, the paramount issue at the pres ent moment. is the issue of recogni- ton of the legally-established and well-conducted government of the Mexican republic. By all of the stand ards of government in the diplomatic recognition of one nation by another, Mexico IS entitled to recognition as an act Of justice. Absolutely the only persons who can conceivably derive advantage from the continued with holding of recognition are certain American bankers who hope to drive a better bargain with Mexico by ere ating in Mexico the impression that they have some influence in deter mining the matter of recognition. For everyone else, whether Mexican or American, the advantage lies in grant ing immediate recognition.
 The paramount reason, however, why recognition should be granted is that the Mexican government has comported itself i'll manner which justihes recognition and the Mexican government IS a government which holds its power as the result Of the democratically expressed mandate of the people.
