DEMOCRAT SENATOR
BOLTS PARTY IN
VOTE ON VETO
One Democratic Senator Bolts His
Party Leaders and Most Anything
Ii Now Expected In Last Days
Of the General Assembly.

Frankfort, KY, March IA. - When
Senator Walter G. Dycus, Democrat
from Marshall county, rose at his seat
Monday, during the voting on the at
tempt to override Governor Morrow's
veto Of the Watkins blind and Hitter
ate voter bill, and began an explana-
ton. few Of the persons present knew
that he was going to vote with the Re-
publicans against the effort, but he
did. As a consequence, tho ballot
stood 10 to IS, falling one short Of the
constitutional majority required to
upset an executive disapproval. While
Senator W. A. Perry. Democratic
floor leader, WAS able to rescue the
bill, and hold is UP for possible future
passage, It is certainly dead unless
Senator Dycus should be persuaded to
change his mind.
Two years ago. when the Senate was
divided as It now is, twenty Demo-
Gratis and eighteen Republicans, one
Democrat, Senator Burton. Of Grant
county. began voting with the Repub-
licans, and as a consequence they OBJ
tained control OF the legislature. The
loss Of Senator Dycus. with the divi-
sion the same. not only defeats the IL
,iterate voter measure. but It also en-
dangers the much more essenuai
statewids registration bill. the veto OF
which by the governor is expected to-
day.
The detection OF Senator Dycus also
greatly complicates the situation win
respect to the Moss-Meyers $b0.Ooo.ooo
road bond submission bill. action on
which WAS looked for today. due to the
decision of the Democrats. In party
caucus, to bring the bill up for consid-
GRAFTON. Passage OF this bill had been
expected, but the injection into the
senate of a party break means that
ANYTHING is now possible, and 1t may
mean that the Democrats will decide
to nut this measure on the shelf.

COUNTRY. Y.WlDE COAL
STRIKE SEEMS NOW
ALMOST CERTAIN
Operators Stand Firm in Their Re.
fusal to Meet Union Workers Rep.
reseentati'es Despite Efforts of
Secretary Of Labor.

Washington, March 14.--Little hope
of averting strike in the unionized
bituminous coal fields April was
held out today in those official circles
which are most concerned with the re-
peated Government attempts to bring
about an adjustment of wage agree
ment differences.
Mine operators, it was declared,
were continuing in their refusal to
enter conference with the United
Mine Workers looking to the creation
of a new wage contract for the CEN
tral competitive field, notwithstand-
ing representations made to them by
James ]. Davis, secretary of Labor,
who holds that existing contracts re-
duire them at least to enter negotia-
lions regardless Of whether such ne
gotiat:ons are carried to completion.
The United Mine Workers of Amer
lea, the general union organization,
was declared to be entirely willing to
enter conference, although insisting
on the maintenance of existing wage
scales, which were adopted in 1920.
The employers are demanding a re-
ductions, amounting to 20 per cent
or more.
1t was indicated in official circles
today that the Government would go
no further at present, but await the
development Of the threatened strike.
The degree of possible Government
Intervention later. 1t was said by q
high official would be determined by
the degree to which the strike If it de-
veloped. might affect adversely the
public welfare.
Statistics assembled for the Labor
Department indicate that 65,OOO,000
tons of coal are now in storage, ap-
rroximately ten weeks" supply for
the entire country, that this amount is
rapidly being augmented, and that
nonunion production is tending to in
crease.
Local agreements between the un-
ion and operators are also expected to
go into effect on or before April 1,
which would insure maintenance of
further operations.

Yates was twirling his pistol about
his finger by means of the trigger
