1t probably can be taken for grant
ed that the better disposition of the
railroad strikers in this respect has
been the cause of the presidents eag-
erness to bring them back to rela-
tions with their employers under fa-
yorable circumstances.
Government Rule Is Point
In the eyes of the government, ths
authority of the government is, quite
naturally, the first an desesntial
thing. Wherever the authority of the
government is recognized and assent
ed to, any strike of issue can be set
tied by judicial or arbitrative process.
Once the principle of the supremacy
of the government is assented to, the
rest follows
Necessarily therefore, whatever
group, whether among the strikers or
the owners, refuses to recognize this
first principle is in a position regard
ing which all the government can do is
to use every agency at its command
to establish its authority.
The situation all along of the coal
strikers has been rather ugly. Their
leaders have refused to submit them
selves to the authority of the govern
ment arbitration and so far have stood
pat in that position. 1t may be fairly
questioned to what extent this atti
tude reflects the real wishes of the
striking men themselves. There are

FEAR ENGLISH NOTE
ON WAR DEBTS MAY
AROUSE RESENTMENT

LONDON, Aug. 2.-The bulk of the
criticism directed at the British gov
ernment5s note to the allies concern
ing its war debts is adverse, though
based on varying grounds. 1t is con-
ceded that the document framed by the
Earl of Balfour is mastery in its lucid
ness. suavity and logic, but here unan-
unity ends.
Foremost among the causes of dis
sent is the fear that the note will be
regarded across the Atlantic as be-
ing addressed to America, rather than
this view lis taken, its probable effect
is estimated also solely in respect to
the impression it is likely to make
there.
The Times, which understands that
the policy of the note embodies was
adopted against the view of the Brit
ish treasury and authorized financial
representatives. fears that the pros
pect of settlement is not improved
by the note.
See Distinct Threat.
The Morning Post says: Behind its
logic and appeal to abstract justice, is
distinct threat to the United States.
The orderly American will
see in it merely an attempt by Great
Britain to escape her debt and place
upon America a burden which Ameri-
ca is unwilling to bear.
eve deeply deplore the note. We
ought to have expressed to America
our unconditional readiness to repay
the debt, and at the same tiRe to
have notified the allies we were pre-
pared to offer them If not complete
remission, at least very generous re-
ductions"
The Westminster Gazette empha-
sized the intimate connection of Amer.
ica's attitude with the whole problem
IF America does not cancel our
bond. we shall pay" it says. "But
there is no sense in pretending we dc
not wish her to cancel our bond. The
practical question. therefore, is how
best to persuade her to take that
step"

ALL POSSIBILITY OF
FRENCH CONSENT To
MORATORIUM is GONE
(By Associated Press)

PARIS, Aug. 2.-The British note on
the inter-allied debt question has re-
moved all possibility of France con-
senting to a moratorium for Germany
in the view of official circles ex-
pressed here today.
It was pointed out in these circles
that the Balfour note, which was a
disappointment to the French govern
ment, probably would have the effect
Of eliminating all consideration of a
general European agreement regard
ing reparatIons and the allied debts.
One reservation to this pessimistic
view was that the Balfour communi.
cation might be a diplomatic move to
place Prime Minister Lloyd George in
the most unfavorable position possible
for Mondays meeting in London of
the allied representatives and that it
might be followed by other British
proposals concerning the allied debts
and reparations.
LONDON, Aug. 2.-Italy has ar.
ranged to be represented in the allied
conference, to meet in London next
month, which is expected to take up
the reparations question with primary
consideration of the subject of mora
torium for Germany 1t was officially
stated this afternoon that Foreign
Minister Schanzer will arrive here
Monday.

HAVE UNTIL AUG. q
TO DECIDE WHETHER
TO BUILD HOSPITAL
Py r.. G. TILToN

Members of the board Of county
commissioners have three meetings
in which to complete estimates for the
1923 budget before it is taken up by
the county council about Aug. %. At
one of these meetings, the board will
determine whether the county is to
go ahead with the construction of a
tuberculosis hospital at Smithfield, on
the site given for that purpose, or
whether the county is to turn the
gift back to the donors, David and
India Esteb.
The county commissioners meet on
Saturday of each week. The regular
monthly meeting at which bills are
allowed, is held on the first Monday
of each month. The exact date on
which they may take up the Smithfield
proposal is not known, but it could
be any one of three dates, Aug. 5, IL,
or 10, as all these fall prior to the
date on which the budget must be
made up and presented to the county
council.
Since the year 1917, when the farm
was taken over by the county with the
understanding that it was to be used
for this purpose, the county has ex-
pended approximately $4,000 in prep
arations for hospital. The county
operated the farm in the meantime
taking the income into the county
treasury.
Also offered Bonds
In addition to the farm, which at
the time it was taken over, was valued
at $4,000, Mr.. and Mrs. Esteb offered
the county $4,000 in bonds, provived
work would be started at once on the
erection of some buildings at Smith
field. The gift was made subject TO
the proposal that the county raise an
additional $4,000.
Although the county council made
this appropriation, no action has ever
| been taken by the commissioners to
/ make it effective by a tax levy. Thus
it is merely paper appropriation
! ready to be put into effect whenever
| the county commissioners decide tc
| include it in the budget.
The state law provides that the
| county council must have the budget
ready for approval by Sept s. The
| budget must be made up and adver
tised 10 days prior to this date.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2.-There is a
marked difference between the rail
road strikers and the coal strikers
which goes to the heart of the one
thing which is now and always has
been treated by President Harding as
the most important element in the
situation. namely. the authority of the
government of the United States. In
this respect, the railroad strikers
have been much closer, from the ad-
ministrations point of view and all
other points. of view, to what is a
sound and proper position than the
coal strikers have been.
The facts show the railroad strik-
ers as holding themselves amenable
to the government, while the coal
strikers are not. The railroad strik-
ers-while it is true that by the act
of striking they ignored a government
institution, in the shape of the rail
road labor board-have since receded
from that position. have virtually ac-
knowledged defeat, and have shown
themselves willing to again bring
themselves within the jurisdiction OF
the governments railway labor board
and to abide by its decisions.
The coal strikers, on the other hand
have refused to submit themselves to
the jurisdiction of the arbitration com.
mission, which President Harding pro
posed in their case. 1t is true that
there is some difference between the
Railway Labor board, which the rail
road strikers have shown a disposi
tion to submit to, and President Hard
ing's proposed arbitration commission
to adjust the coal strike. The differ
ence is that the railway labor board II
