n Me of our great strikes-that Of
" the bituminuus miners-was set

and after a fashion. The agreement
reached at Cleveland by the miners
officials and operators representing
perhaps GO,O0O,O0O tons annual pre-
duction means there will be enough
ter though conservation and ration
ing probably will be necessary. But
the old wage scales and working con-
ditlons are to continue in effect until
March 81, 1923, which means the high
prices for coal that have prevailed
for several years will be maintained
by the dealers, if they can do it, and
also that next April the disputes and
probably the strike will begin all over
again. To be sure, the agreement
provides for the creation of machinery
to avert further strikes and to bring
some order into the chaotic coal in.
dustry, but the public must not count
too much on this.
Both the miners and the operators
claim to have won a victory at
Cleveland, the former because their
wages and work conditions are un-
changed, and the latter because the
miners signed agreements with indi.
vidual operators and also because the
tribunals to be set up solve the issues
revolving around the question Of ar
.bitration. which the miners oppose.
The agreements were with opera.
tors of all the bituminous states ex-
cept Illinois and Indiana, but the pros
poets for resumption of mining in
those two states also was excellent.
Already the coal profiteers are get
ting in their work. Senator Borah
Of Idaho called this to the attention
of the federal fuel committee and an
nounced his intention of seeking legls-
lation to check them. At the same
time Fuel Distributor Spencer asked
the railroads to refrain from compeH.
tive bidding for coal, the result Of
which had been to force the price
above the limit set by Secretary Hoov-
er. It was stated in Washington that
President Harding would ask congress
to pass legislation giving the federal
fuel committee legal powers to con.
troll the distribution and regulate the
price of coal as safeguard against
hardship and profiteering. 1t squite

does come to the rescue, the settle,

st. Paul-With states of the north
west forced to rely on the federal
government for coal, governors Of five
states took steps to insure coal sup
ply before the famine becomes acute,
-and to prevent profiteering, by propos-
ing that the federal government take
over the mines and railroads "if ne
cessary," and that cars be furnished
only those charging reasonable prices
The meeting was attended by Gov
ernors J.. A. o. Preus, who called It;
]. ]. Blaine, Wis; r. A. Nestos, N. D.;
and w. H. McMasters, s. D.; and
Charles Webseer, Iowa fuel admins
TRAITOR Delegates from the coal and
dock companies, rail shippers and rep.
resentatives Of civic associations also
attended.
Gov. Preus said: "The government
must operate the roads in this emer-
gency. The railroads have failed tt.
haul coal to Lake Erie ports. They
are more interested in the settlement
of their strike than in supplying coal
to nonproducing coal states. / sug-
gested that If they are not able to give
this territory the coal it needed then
let congress give the president power
to take over these railroads.
$1,500,000 was stolen from the peo-
pie two years ago. TINS robbery must
not be repeated: Mr.. Bowen has in.
formation that some operators already
are charging far in excess of the
Hoover price.
Mr.. Bowen showed that:
Minnesota is 100000 tons short in
bituminous coal supply.
Receipts at the head Of the lakes
this season up to July 81, amounted
to only 16.25l tons Of anthracite coal
as compared with 100000 to 10000 for
the same period In former years.
"The bituminous coal receipts at the
head of the lakes this season up to
July 81, were only 100000 tons, where.
as the supply for this period in 1921
was 5,455,000 tons.
Gov. Nestos, Of N. d., declared that
Ignite coal would help weather the
shortage. Gov. Blaine Of Wis, de.
manded government safeguards and
assurance that Wisconsin would get
