Harding Policy On
Strike Given AS
"Hands OFF,

$50 far as President Harding
is concerned, all Government ne
gotiations for ending the rail-
road strike are off," it was de-
clared here today by Senator
James E. Watson (Rep.) Of In
diana, after he had spent nearly
an hour in conference with the
President at the White House.
"The President feels he has
gone as far as he can," said
Watson.
Senator Watson said this in
no way affected the direct ne
gotiations between strike lead
ers and railway executives, now
being considered by the union
representatives.
There is also reason to be-
lieve, Senator Watson said, that
>three-fourths Of the railway
executives of the country favor
adjustment of the strike by
mutual agreement.
While President Harding has
abandoned his personal efforts
to bring the tie-up to an end,
the Administration, nevertheless,
looks with favor and will en-
courage every effort at bring
ing about a settlement by d.
rect negotiations, Senator Wat

COAL MEN K j kLUX

ALLPR|CES n { GROES
Hoover, With Agreements
Broken, Will Ask Congress
For Mandatory Scale.
BY international News Service.

Virtually all the producing coal
operators in the country have
broken away from the "fair price,
agreement they made some weeks
ago and are now getting prices
for their coal far in excess Of the
erstwhile fair price scale. .. 4.
This fact was officially 4 ad-
mitted today by Secretary OF
Commerce Hoover, who said 1t will
be necessary for Congress to en-
act legislation to prevent rampant
profiteering.
Price Jumps In Week.
The fair price scale agreed upon
between Hoover and the operators
was $3.50 ton at the mines. At the
time this scale was made coal in
some places was selling for $2.10 a
ton, and there was considerable criti-
cism Of the scale on the part Of Con.
gress.
With steady leaps, prices have
risen during the last weeks to where
coal is now selling for virtually
whatever the market will pay. It
was admitted today by coal experts.
In general the price has ranged be.
tween $6 and $3.50 a ton in recent
sales, although in some districts the
operators have demanded and re-
ceived as high as $13.
Hoover said 1t would also be neces.
sary to enact Federal legislation to
enforce the will of the President g
fuel committee in the distribution OF
coal now being mined. This com
mittee will function even after the
strikes in the bituminous and an
thracite fields are settled, but those
who are engaged in the distribution
work are finding they will need
drastic enforcement legislation In
carrying out their plans for allocat'
ing coal.
1t was understood no recommends.
tions have yet been made for the
legislation contemplated by Hoover,
Fear For Reserve Stocks.
Members Of the Presidents fuel
distribution committee said today
the price situation was becoming
more complicated since railroads
and public utilities, fearing their
reserve stocks would be exhausted
are going into the market and
bidding against each other for coal
In some districts. the mine owners
are said to have been willing tc
sell to the company offering the
most money, thereby rendering
Secretary Hoover's fair price
scale" Of no consequence.
To relieve the situation on rail
roads running southwest out oi
st. Louis, orders have been issued
to supply them with Alabama coal

New Peace Effort
Launched Today BY
Brotherhood Unions
BY GEORGE II. HOLMES,
International News Service.

Another thrust toward peace in
the critical railroad strike is being
made today, while Congress reassem-
bles in Washington, and President
Harding is meeting with his Cabinet
for a thorough discussion as to how
meet the most critical industrial
situation the country has faced in
years.
The peace move is being en-.
gineered by the leaders Of the four
railway brotherhoods, with the sane
ton of the President. 1t aims at
sounding OUT those railroad presi.
dents who are sympathetic toward
President Harding's original pro-
posai of unimpair"d seniority rights
for striking shopcraft workers to
ascertain IL there has been any
since the executives so summarily re-
jected the proposal in New York two
weeks ago.
Hope OF Success Is Slim.
Hope for peace is admittedly a for.
lorn one. The brotherhood chiefs
do not believe a sufficient number Of
executives are willing to yield on the
seniority issue to make peace pos
sible, but they agreed to poll the
country anyway.
Grabbing at strawsr' was the
pessimistic description one union
leader applied to It. His opinion was
generally shared by other union
leaders and by Cabinet officers az
well.
Efforts are being made today to
persuade union leaders to call off the
strikes on those roads that are will
ing to comply with the "unimpaired
seniority" proposal put forth by the
White House two weeks ago.
The union leaders assert they can.
not consent to II, as II would mean
break In the solidarity of labor, and
would result practically in their help
ing to break, their own strike. They
assert the roads that gained relief
would help the "die.hard" roads with
repaired equipment.
Crisis Believed at Hand.
That the twin rail and coal strikes
have actually reached the stage Of
constituting an industrial crisis and
real national peril was generally
conceded today by every shade OF
otfic al opinion in Washington.
Cabinet members took with them
to the White House reports from
all parts Of the country telling Of
suspended train operations, factories
closing down for want OF fuel or
transportation. sporadic spreading OF
the strike to all classes OF railroad
labor. and occasional outbursts Of
violence.

1t is my belief the :wo hackers
who were recently engaged by two
Chinese down on the Avenu" to
drive them around the speedway,
and who later drove them over

out to walk back, could throw
some light on the death CT Nc
Bride. 1t appears to me that the
same thing would have happened
to the Chinese had they offered
any resistance.

or three blocks where the hack
ers were hailed by the Cinnamon.

premeditated and committed by

JACOB MILwIT.
Mcbride attended a convention
at Atlantic City, N. J., and made
friends with bad actor who
learned he had money and followed
him here and coaxed him to take d
ride and drink and then robbed and
killed him. THOMAS BURKE.
1t is hardly reasonable to think
a District resident killed Mcbride,
because he was not here long
enough to make friends, and give
him credit as an intelligent busi-
ness man not to have told people
his personal affairs.
/ think he was shadowed by
someone from his home and think
the police should find IL anybody
was missing from his home town.
G. II. PRITCHARD.
Solution Of the mysterious MUIR
der of Barney A. Mcbride ap-
parently hangs on the establish
ment of the identity Of the man
who was last seen with him at the
Elks' Club.
Robbery undoubtedly was the
sole motive. Theft Of McBride's
valuable diamond ring, his watch
and large amount of money
plainly points to this.
Had more than one man been i'm
plicated they would not have left
McBride's body in a culvert at the
edge of a heavy travelled road.
McBride's murder apparently
was not premeditated. 1t probably
was the original intention Of the
slayer to rob him without killing
him. When the robbery was first
attempted he put up q vigorous
fight, forcing the murderer to
strike him to subdue him. After
hacking the man the robber con-
cluded his escape appeared et.sier
