President Determined TO Keep
Basic Industries Moving,
HOPE WALxOUT is AvERTED
II Is Said Certain Fuel viii BE Pro-
vided Even II Government Super
vision of Mines Is Necessary

New Smyrna, Fla. The adj
ministration has decided that the
railroads and essential industries shall
be kept going if coal miners strike on
April |,
President Harding and his cabinet,
according to members of the party
here, have evolved definite pro-
gram of executive action in event the
threatened walkout occurs.
In the frs. place, Of course, 1t Is
the hope Of the administration that
the strike will be averted. If it oc-I
ours, however, 1t now may be regard
ed as certain that fuel will be pro-
vided, even II government supervisionl
of mines Is necessary.
The president Is accompanied on this
trip by Attorney General Daugherty,
who will be an active figure In the
strike emergency. Secretary OF War
Weeks already has been In consulta-
ton with the president.
The government, while urging a
wage conference, does not have any
means Of enforcing such conferences
If the conference plan collapses, .asl
seems probable, the government IL pre-
pared to propose arbitration through a
commission which the president will
appoint This commission will be-
made up of one or more operators, tol
be nominated by the producing inter
ests, and o. or more miners, to be
named by Il union. The ehairmanl
Is to be named by the president Vs.
Should thu strike actually take
place, the administration win consid-
en- court action to restrain the men
| from quitting. IT Is realized by the
cabinet, according to high authority
however, tina this would not in itself
keep the mines working The men
could not be forced to work. but strike
benefit funds could be tied up, handi-
Gaping officers of the union
Beyond this, the administration has
not looked. 1t can be stated upon
highest authority that II strike
comes he president Will have cabinet
advice to assume sufficient control Of
the coal mining industry to assure the
country a coal supply.
The first consideration would be the
operation Of the railroads They must
not be paralyzed. After the railroads,
the needs of householders Will be con-
sidered, and thereafter the needs OF
essential Industries.

LIQUOR TREATIES URGED
Haynes Advocates Them to Put an
End to Smuggling.

Washington - Negotiation Of I'll
quor treaties" with Great p.itain
and Cuba, as aids in putting an end
to rum smuggling into this country,
was said by hiGkeFiternal revenue Of
fcials to have been advocated by Pro-
hlDition Commissioner Haynes.
Treaties were desired, Is was ex-
planned, to handle the Canadian border
situation and to better control exports
of liquor from Cuba, the Bahamas and
Bermuda to this country
Prohibition officials also have under
discussion proposal for declaring
rum-runnng vessels to be pirates,
through negotiation with foreign ma
tions looking to the cancellation Of
the registry of such ships.
Many of the larger liquor ships car
rying Illicit cargoes Of alcohol, 1t was
said, anchor just outside the limit Of
customs jurisdiction and send the car
go ashore in small boats. The war on
these craft is being successfully wax
ed, officials assert, but the cargo YES
sells are beyond the reach of the law.
If they sailed without proper registry
they would be branded as pirates, out
side the law, and the lawful prize of
every navy in the world.
