Presidet Harding and Secretary Of
Labor Davis will ask the coal operators
and miners to agree to a joint confer
ence before April l to frame q new
wage scale in the hope of averting the
nation wide coal strike now threatened
for that date, it was learned at the
White House today.
1t was indicated that the President
would not personally call the confer
ence but would urge that one be held
in accordance with the provisions of
the national agreement between the op-
orators and miners affected by former
President Wilson in settling the big
coal strike of 1919-20.
In this connection it was stated that
the department of justice has rendered
an opinion that the injunction Of Fed
eral Judge Anderson of Indianapolis
restraining conferences between the op-
orators and miners does not apply to
such q conference as would be called
under the national agreement.
President Lewis recently called such
a conference, but 50 far the operators
have refused to join in it, claiming
they are prohibited by the Anderson in
junction.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The first
public detection from the ranks Of the
prO-bonus senators came today when
Moses, New Hampshire, republican, an
nounced on the floor of the Senate his

His speech came as surprise, but
it was said to be the forerunner of
other breaks from the pro-bonus ranks.
Senator Ernest, Kentucky, was report
ed going over to the opposition camp.
The full membership, taken unaware
by the subcommittee 8 action, post
pOned vote of acceptance Of the no

Two posses, one headed by Sheriff J.
j. Keaton of Marin county and the
other composed of prison guards under
Captain Myron Clark today were
searching trains and auto stages and
combing the Marin county hills for

made by tying coats together. The
escape was made during services in
the prison chapel and was not noted
until 10 p. M. when {; final check Of
prisoners revealed their absence.
The three who escaped were:
Richard Palmer, serving five years
for hotel robbery in San Francisco.
Frank Claussen, serving ten years
for forgery from Alameda county.
w. R. Knowles, serving five years
from San Francisco for passing bad
checks.
Herbert Nelson, serving seven years
for auto thefts at Marysville, was the
man captured
Prison authorities expressed tho be-
lief today that all three missing men
would be caught, the difficulty of max
ing good an escape, particularly in the
present wet, uncertain weather, being
too great.

NOT LIKELY
TO PASS
BY CARL ID. GROAT
tied Press Staff CorrespOndt

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24-By vote
of five to three the Republican sub
committee of the House ways and
means committee today voted against
n sales tax as a means Of raising the
soldier bonus.
The subcommittee members decided
to report the outcome of their voting
to the full Republican membership lat
er today and it was held likely the full
group would concur.
Pro-sales tax men said the matter
probably will have to go back to Pres
ident Harding.
Representative Houghton, New York,
an expert on insurance, suggested to
the committee n scheme whereby SER
vice men would obtain unemployment
sickness and old age insurance-but
without cash. This met considerable
favor within the committee, but it was
stated that no definite alternative OF
compromise is ready for the full Repub-
lican membership.
Fordney, in keeping with his pledge
to the farm bloc leaders, appeared
against the sales tax. The only prO-tax
men were Longworth, Watson and
Bacharach.
Representative Frear, farm bloc man
was understood to have told colleagues
that his group was so opposed to the
sales tax that it could not pass.
Definite efforts to kill the sales tax
as a revenue raiser for the soldier bon
us were expected today from Chairman
FOrdney of the ways and means com
mittee.
Equally as definite efforts to retain
it as the only feasible means of get
ting early and adequate cash were
to be made in the sub committee by
Representative LOngwOrth, influential
member and confidante of President
Harding and others.
Fordney had pledged himself, accord
ing to Leader Dickinson of the House
farm bloc" to come out against the
sales tax in committee" and for an
authorization to President Harding to
raise funds in these three ways.
disposal of old army supplies.
2-Sale of any available securities
(kind not specified but referring only
to expected British bonds.)
3---Use of any available funds in the
treasury, meaning at least theoretical
ly the application of savings from army
navy and other budget cuts to payment

Season

Montgomery. October 2o.-(Specisi)
The demand for shrimp now being
canned on the Mobile coast is far
greater than the supply and there are
enough orders in hand now to keep
the canning plants busy throughout

who returned today from Mobile,
where he attended meeting of
shrimp packers of the Mobile coast.
Prospects for the shrimp and oyster
industry are better now than ever
before. Seven plants are now In OPP
Grafton at Bayou la Batre, Coden ana
Mobile. Two have been started since
last season.
One company reported that 1t had
received an order for the expectation
of 10000 cases of shrimp to London
but would be forced to cancel the
order because of Its inability to care
for It's regular trade and furnish this
order in addition.
AN inventory is now being taken
of tho machinery and equipment used
in the shrimp and oyster canning in
dustry on Mobiles coast and of the
money invested in tho Industry" said
Mr.. Quinn, up to this no detailed
information Is obtainable on the de-
velopment OF the industry. ] believe
the canning of sea food will show
progress during the next few years
which cannot now be conceived by
man and the department of conser-
