HARDING TO PASS
ON COAL CONTROL
Senator Borah Will Seek
Presidents View on U. S.
Mine Operation.
BILL CALLS FOR PROBE
But Committee Delays Action on
Measure Pending Word
From Executive.

President Harding will be asked his
opinion by Senator Borah, chairman
of the committee on education and
labor. of the Borah bill TO create a
coal commission to investigate the
coal industry and report to Congress
whether it Is advisable to establish
government control or naturalization
of mines. Senator Borah hopes to
confer With the President today.
The determination to consult the
President regarding the bill was
reached at a meeting of the commit
tee on education and labor today.
Consensus of opinion was that Sena-
tor Borah should obtain the Presi-
dents views and give them to the
other members of the committee at a
meeting to be held tomorrow:
it would be inadvisable to take any
action on the Borah bill until after
they had learned the President s
views. They are particularly anxious
not to do anything at this time which
could in any way interfere with the
Of the existing strike.
Doubt as to the constitutional right
of Congress to authorize a federal in
of the coal industry touch
ing intrastate rights was expressed
by some of the members of the COM
mittee as well as Senator Pepper of
who talked with Sena-
tor Borah prior to the committee
ever, by Senator Borah, that his bill
can be amended so as not to trans
gress the provisions of the Constitu-
ton.

MR.. HAYNES EXPLAINS LAW
Believes New York Report Of Wa
tered Liquor Fictitious.

The sole object of the PRONUNCIATION
of the new Treasury regulation for
bidding importation of liquor was TO
make effective the terms Of the
Wnlis-Campbell act dealing with
liquor importation, Prohibition Com
missioner Haynes explained today.
The regulations, Commissioner
Haynes said. have been in the process
of formation for several months. but
several considerations such as excep-
tions being made to enable the i'm
portation of certain classes of sacra
mental wines delayed their promulga-
ton until the recent date. 1t is well
known, he contended, that rules and
regulations are necessary to MAKE
operative an act of Congress of this
kind and hence the new import rules
had to be promulgated under the
Willis-Campbcll law.
Mr.. Haynes denied reports that the
regulations were issued to thwart
tions had resulted in liquor ware
houses which had been filled with
imported wines and whistles now
being filled with barrels of water.
The commissioner added that there
never was a time when there were
of the activities of enormous bootleg
rings and there never was time
when liquor conditions were better.
The commissioner pointed out that
the Willis Campbell measure, which
was enacted last November. specifical-
ly provides for an embargo on the
, importation of liquor until the supply
within the country shall no longer
be sufficient to meet the current non
beverage needs

STATE PLANS OPERATION.
Indiana Mines May Be Taken Over.
Says Gov. McCray.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, July 81
Gov. Warren T. McCray announced
last night that the state of Indiana
was arranging to take over and
operate sufficient mines to supply
IEdiana's necessities" The announce
ment was made in a telegram to John
Hessler. president of the Indiana
Miners. who is in Philadelphia in an
endeavor to arrange q settlement of

President Hessler had wired Gov.
McCray that the union officials were
contemplating call for an Interstate
conference. and urged him to use his
influence with the Indiana operators.
The governor promised his "unqual-
ihed support to the movement" and
added that ''in the meantime my
preparation for coal production will
proceed as rapidly as possible"

Presidential influence will settle
the rail strike within the next for
ty,eight hours.
Conferences between President
Harding and T. Dewitt Cuyler'
chairman Of the Association OF
Railway Executives. on the one
hand. and with B. NJ. Jewell and
representatives of the shop crafts
unions. on the other, have pro-
ceeded to the point where accept
ance of a formula for a settlement
cannot long be delayed.
Briefly. the President wants the
men to go back to work and the
railroads to take them back with
the understanding that rehearings
will be given on matters already
in dispute before the United States
Railroad Labor Board and with
the further agreement that the
seniority rights problem will BE
left for future determination.
Seniority Issue to Board.
In other words. the process
would be this: The workmen would
return to work and ask that their
seniority rights be restored. Ma
turally the railroads, to be con-
sistent. would refuse to grant the
request. This would Immediately
become a dispute within the mean
ing of the transportation act and
the Labor Board would get juris-
diction over the matter.
If the Labor Board subsequently
should decide that the seniority
question had arisen after the pres
ent strike began and was not real
ly an issue before that, and if the
board should grant the restoration
of seniority rights without max
ing the decision a precedent for
future cases. all of which would
have to stand on their own bot
toms, the railroads would be bound
to accept the findings of the Labor
Board.
To Bring Roads Into Line.

cisions of the board haven't been
respected in the past by the rail-

roads. but there is every reason
to believe that President Harding
will make an effort to enhance
the prestige of the board by secur-
ing even at this late date obedi-
ence to the boards decisions on
the part Of the railroads.
Mr.. Harding has tried to maneu-
yer the situation without attempt
ing to influence the Labor Boards
actions. but occasions for guild
ance have arisen. which have
direct bearing on the settlement
of the rail strike, and the Presi-
dent is using his powers of per-
suasion to bring about a compro-
mise which will ostensibly be the
action of the Labor Board. but real
ly the policy of the administration.
Mr.. Cuyler. who represents the
14S rail executives who operate
Americas railroads. has job on
his hands trying to reconcile the
various viewpoints Of eastern and
western roads. but the impression
after he left the White House was
that the situation had reached
point where Mr.. Cuyler's leader
ship was essential to settlement.
Then the Coal Strike.
AS for the coal strike. the Pres
ident feels that he will have bet
ter chance to tackle that situation,
possibly with a new conference be-
tween miners and operators. ii the
rail strike is brought to a peaceful
end. John L. Lewis published
statement that he is ready for a
Joint conference" is regarded as
significant. for he did not limit the
conference to specific sections or
require that all operators be rep
resented He made no limitations.
The administration finds itself
more or less fatigued from pre-
vious efforts to do something
through a conference with miners
and operators, but the situation has
grown acute since the disputants
were on the White House carpet,
and the belief prevails that a
change of attitude and a compro-
missing disposition now may be ap-
parent where no symptoms of rec
onciliation were visible week
ago. Altogether the two strike
situations look as If they might be
settled by executive pressure very
soon.

NEW YORK, July 27.-The embargo
