DOOR is LEFT OPEN
FOR PEACE AS HARD,
COAL PARLEYS QUIT
fRy Assoclated Pressl

PHILADELPHIA, Aug 23.-With
the hard coal parleys broken up as a
result of the inability of miners and
operators to agree on the arbitration
problem, those anxious for peace in
the anthracite fields today commented
upon the-fac that the door was left
open for future negotiations in the
statement issued jointly by the ne
gotiators. This statement laconic as
those issued upon the conclusion OF
the four previous sessions announced
that the conference was unable to
agree and that it had adjourned to
meet at the call of the secretary upon
request of either side.
The operators today were pointing
to the appeal with which they prefaced
the terms of their first proposals in
which they said that serious short
age of anthracite has been created al
ready and that further idleness would
simply aggravate the situation, and in
the end force the householder to use
other fuel temporarily "to the ulti-
mate detriment of the industry and
those it employees"
Sharp Difference
The abrupt halt in the proceedings
followed the insistence by the operat-
ors on some form of arbitration in the
future during which the miners could
remain at work A sharp difference
of opinion developed as to the length
of contract to be signed. Operators
offered to pay the old wage rates I'M
til next March 81, with arbitration
after that date Miners demanded the
old rate until March 81 of 1924
Statements issued by Samuel D.
Warmer, president of the Lehigh
Coal and Navigation company, for the
operators, and by John L. Lewis, presi-
dent of the United Mine Workers,
made it clear that the chief obstacle
to agreement was arbitration, which
the miners refused unequivocally to
consider.
Balk at Arbitration
Mr. Warmer maintained that the
miners baked even at recommendtory
arbitration subject to acceptance or
rejection by either side within 10 days
after the arbitration boards recon-
mendations were submitted.
Mr.. Lewis statement in setting
forth the miners objection to arbi
tration in any form said that the con
cilliation board proposed by the oper
ators was similar TO the United States
Railroad Labor board which had fur
nished an Objectionable example BY
its laundering failure as an agency tc
function with proper regard for the
workers rights"
"The miners have declined to pur
chase peace at such cost"
