to avert, if possible, the taking over
the mines and seizure of the railroads
is not yet seriously contemplated 1t
may be stated that Fords viewpoint
on the situation has also reached
Harding from many quarters.
AS stated in these dispatches, the
legislation contemplated to empower
the President to operate the anthra-
cite mines and railroads in event q
crisis dictates, was sanctioned by him
primarily as a preparedness measure
because Congress is on the verge of
quitting and he lacked these emer-
gency powers.
In the second place Congress was
showing signs Of a panic and the de-
mand for seizure needed control.
But within the last few days the
congressional panic has taken turn
the other way. The political and eco
nomic consequences of the Govern
ment's seizure either the anthracite
mines or the rails or both have been
such as to give pause to the legisla-
tors.
Fords blast, certain to catch the
ear of the people generally. will make
for further care by the House and
Senate in the matter of precipitous
action on any seizure legislation.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2s.-An un-

legislation empowering President
Harding to seize anthracite mines and
certain coal carrying railroads ap-
peared in Congress today.
This may cause the President to
change his plan Of asking such leg1s-

1t also became apparent that other
strike legislation. including the bill
to create a Federal commission to in

so that it may ban profiteer coal from
interstate commerce, faces stiff re-

the controversy can be reached also
may be a factor in delaying seizure

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-Henry
Ford, through announcement that his
plant will close Sept. 16 because Of
coal6Bhortage, and deliveries on Ford
materials will not be accepted after
that date until further notice. has in
jected a new and sinlficant element
into the industrial situation growing
out of the mine and rail strikes.
The situation now embodies three
tremendous forces:
/. The so-called big money" or
wall Street" interests, admittedly
out for finish fight in the coal and
rail industries to beat union labor.
2. The organized labor movement
accepting the challenge and ready to
fight to preserve their unions.
8. The great Ford interests. which.
with all of their ramifcations, con-
stitute the most powerful independ-
ent financial and labor force In the
country, declaring that business can
not go on with the other two forces
fighting as they are.
Significance of Movement
The significance of Ford's move,
Ford is an out-and-out enemy of the
so-called money barons" of the East,
and at the same time runs his busi-
ness with no recognition of labor
unions, is this:
Despite the two great strikes, the
dismal forecasts of Government Off
cials in Washington, and the fact that
coal stocks are virtually exhausted
and transportation is only about fifty
per cent of normal, the stock market
and other business barometers largely
in the control of eastern financiers,
have been buoyant. Big steel COM
panies. led by the United States Steel
Corporation, foundation Of the open
shop movment, have increased wages,
hailed as a forerunner of boom days.
Statements by financial leaders have
persistently reflected optimism-with
the result that the stock market has
been "good times" market.

"a finish fight" A conspiracy to
unload the railroad systems on the
Government at the railroads own
price and also "mulct the people
through excessive coal prices" Presi-
sdent Gompers of the A. f. OF L. and
other labor leaders have frequently
made the same charge.
Now Ford. by inference, serves an
ultimatum on both the railroads and
the operators that they must termi-

ever the closing of his great industry.
and it's effect on industries more or
less dependent upon him, may be.

JACKSON, Cal. Aug. 2s.-Fate Of

and cave-in on the 2,s00-foot level of
the Argonaut gold mine here, re-
manned precarious today.
A volunteer Red Cross crew, headed
by Superintendent Downing Of the
\ mine, had been underground to check
the number and identity of the men
entombed and arranging first aid.
The cave-in, which was reported
just after the midnight shift entered
the mine, closed the main workings
for a distance of about 500 feet.
All communication with the en-
tombed men was broken off.
Indications were that either tunnel
ing in from one Of the open shafts Of
the mine or digging a way through
the 500 feet of debris We're the only
possible means of effecting rescue.
Although the mine officials refused
to make any statement, it was known
they doubted seriously the chances of
bringing the entombed miners out
alive.
Reports were received that the i'm
prisoned miners had reached the 200
foot level where they found good air.
