evidence of a fundamental change
in your attitude toward your COM
rades in the service

Ian incident and was convinced that
no racial reasons were behind the
action of young Olmstead and his

The dividing line was drawn
straight through Congress as forces
were mustered last night for the leg

the fate of the soldier bonus.
On one side were arrayed the forces
desirous of immediate action. led by
Senator McCumber, Republican. chair
man of the Senate Finance Commit
tee. They are determined to force
the bonus before the Senate some
time the early part of next week.
On the other were aligned the ad-
ministration men-those who demand
that the tariff bill he given prefer
ence over the bonus and that the
bonus he Immediately delayed until
the tariff is disposed of. They were
following out the commands of Presi-
dent Harding who expressed his sem
timents to the Senate yesterday
through Senator Lodge.
VIII Meet Monday.
A meeting of Republican Senators
will be held at 10 o'clock Monday
morning at which an attempt will be
made to settle the differences.
Lodge conferred with the President
after his return from Massachusetts,
where he has been conducting his
primary campaign. The President Is
understood to have urged the neces-
sity for action on the tariff. To bring
the bonus up in the Senate at this
time would be "unwise" he is quoted
as having said to the Senator.
Upon his return to the Capitol
Lodge is sad to have expressed the
Presidents desires to those on the
Republican side of the chamber, ex-
pressing the hope that so-called I'm
surgents' would desist in their at
tempts to get the bonus bill before the
Senate at the earliest possible
moment.

Senate early next week suggesting
that the Senate Immediately give
consideration to his bonus measure.

strong group made up of some Re-
publicans and about half the Demo-
Gratis who believe the bonus should
be passed Immediately.
Underwood Backs Harding.
On the opposing side. however.
beside the administration men are
some Democrats led by Senator
Underwood. who apparently sides
with Harding in this issue. These
believe-with the President-that
the bonus should be put off until
after the tariff or postponed until
the next session of Congress when
the people will have had an oppor-
tunity to express their desires on

COAL RETAILERS

Operate to Protect the
Public Interest"

The coal'retailers have made their
peace with Secretary Hoover ard
have shown a full desire to coop
eratefto protect the public the best
we all can in a difficult situation"
Therefore, after period OF sus-
pense in which il seemed Secretary
Hoover's moral agreement" plan
would collapse, yesterdays confer
ence with Roderick stephens. chair
man of the board Of directors OF
the National Retail Coal Merchants
Association, in collaboration with
Representatives of the National Coal
Assoclation-the operators group.
has -''planed out all difficulties"
However, the arranEement which
Secretary Hoover now feels Will
work out successfully during the
strike emergency is not intended 10
prevail beyond such time as the
strike may be settled.
No strike settlement.
And whatever we do now" said
Mr.. Hoover. I'VE need never hope
for a settlement Of the coal strike
for a long range, permanent settle
ment until definite provision Is
made to cope with the intermittancy
of the coal industry. In mines
where there is full annual employ
ment the wages are high. But in
mines where employment is only
for part time the wages are below
the standard for obtaining the me-
cessities of life.
I'm the fields where a price basis
has not yet been established (only
Is to 20 per cent Of the total ton
mage being produced). I earnestly
request that each operator immedi-
ately reduce his selling basis for
spot coal to the Garfield price, in
cluding the standard selling ex-
'pense. plus such additions for in
creased costs as can be justified in
his Individual case. This plan, IL
adhered to. should result in a re-
duction of prices in several districts
of Pennsylvania and Western Ken
tucky."
Benefits for Consumer.
Furthermore. 1t was agreed that
operators who have had a regular.
established retail clientele, whom
they have supplied upon special
terms of deliveries and prices even
without contract should continue to
do so; but this st rtement also Inn
plies that such retailers give such
benefits to their customers, and fur
ther that such retailers can be ex-
pected to give assurance that they
will continue their connection with
the operator in the future"
