WASHINGTON, July 1S-In the name
of the common welfare, and the para
mount need of the American people for
the production and transportation of a
fuel supply President Harding tonight
through kilograms called upon the gov
ernors of twenty-eight coal states to fur
nish protection and safe guards to men
and employers willing to resume work in
the industry notwithstanding the mine
workers strike. To the efforts OF the
states in this direction, he said, "the fed
eral government pledges to give every as
sistance at it's command"
Suspects Conspiracy.
Behind the kilograms there loomed the
definite indication of government decis-
ion to obtain resumption of transporta-
tion and mining, both hampered today by
labor walkouts which high officials con-
slider interconnected and associated.
Replying to a question late today, At

Naturally there's relationship be-
tween the railroad and coal situations.

ers strike would be continued. Earlier

dispatched. Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of Labor, pre-
dicted in a statement that President Har-
ding's invitation to the operators to re-
sumo operations would result in no ap-
preciable increase in production. He add
ed that when half million men are ag-
grieved is a poor time indeed for the roll

President Harding in his kilograms ex-
planned in detail the negotiations and
conferences with union officers and mine
operators and the offer of existing wage
scales to the striking miners, all of which
had ended, he said. in failure to reach
a voluntary adjustment, and left no re-
course but to invite the mine operators
to return to their mines and resume op-
erations. For this last endeavor, he ask

a scale never before contemplated" The
Florida senator added that in his opin' l,
IL would at this time 'be a mistake ana
most unfortunate for the country to en-
act them into laws.
Selling of shipping boards vessels on
long time payments and government IN
surance for American ship operators was
recommended by Senator Fletcher.
Analyzing the pending bill Senator
Fletcher said it proposed to loan money

government could itself obtain. He also
thought that the Standard Oil, the United
states steel Corporation, United Fruit
and other great corporations maintain
ing fleets of vessels. would come under
the bill, escape all taxes on their shipping
property.
The bill, Senator Fletcher continued,
also would give the shipping board the
mower of life or death over any shipping
company or vessel owner, the privilege
OF rewarding favorites to an unlimited
extent and Of running those not liked, OF
building up ports and destroying them,
