Unprecedented Demand Laid
To Abnormal Weather
Conditions.
By InternatIonaI New. Service.


Compelled to begin harvesting
prematurely owing to the abnormal
season, a vast area Of the country Is
in need Of a greater number Of
harvest workers this year than in
any year heretofore, the United
States Employment Service an
nounced yesterday.
The harvest problem, officials
said, has been greatly, complicated
by disparity of wages and the
transportation handicaps. APPROX
mately 10000 men. recruited by the
employment service, already are at
work in the fields.
No crops have been lost because
of the shortage OF labor. II was said.
The wheat harvests in Texas.
Oklahoma. and Kansas have been
virtually finished, while in western
Nebraska harvesting is proceeding
rapidly and will be completed within
q week.
The Dakotas have been making
unusual demands for farm help. and
the farmers Of these States rely al
most entirely upon the employment
service for the required labor.
Special agents have been placed
at Sydney. Neb.; Cheyenne, Wyo.;

The average wage Of the local

With their pocketbooks fattensd
to the extent Of s4oo, 900, the local
strikers are greatly buoyed up, and
with the expense money supplied by

struck they are prepared to con-
tinue the strike indefinitely.

Another attempt to end the
coal strike was in the making here
yesterday afternoon.
Secretary Of Commerce Hoover
conferred at the Capitol with Sem
ators from Indiana, Illinois, Ohio,
and Pennsylvania to review the

tral competitive field.
Those who attended the con-
ference were Senators Mckinley
and Mccormick Of Illinois, New

and Pomerene Of Ohio, and Pep
per Of Pennsylvania.
Hope for Lasting Peace.
1t was the hope Of the coal
State" Senators to agree upon a
plan which would not only end the
present strike, but prevent recur,
renee Of labor disputes throughout
the central field.
In the event a program is finally
decided upon the Senatorial dele,
cation will make recommendations
to President Harding.
The conference was called when
Senator Pepper and Senator Willis
received reports showing the coal
shortage was causing an alarming
situation.
'I asked the Senators from Ohio.

a conference over the coal sitIa.
tion." Pepper said. "I wanted to
get them all around the conference
table to learn what their views
were on a remedy for the present
situation"
Hoover was called to the confer.
ence to give the Governments view.
point on the strike. There was a
possibility the Senators would rec
ommend legislative action by Con.
gress to set up machinery by which
future mine disputes will be settled
before reachin gstrike proportions.
