President Harding to-
day delivered the Govern
ments final ultimatum to
the W airing coal miners
and operators.
He told them flatly
they would either submit
to arbitration by a COM
mission to be appointed
by the Government, or
else the Government will
step in and seize the
mines to protect the pub
lie.
Under the terms Of the
Presidents ultim IN a tum,
the miners would return
to work Immediately un-
der the old wage scale.
TIME LIMIT TONIGHT.
The President gave the war
ring factions until tonight to
inform him Of their respective
decisions. No answers were
Immediately forthcoming from
either side.
The operators announced
they would caucus at once,
and the miners said they
would caucus later in the af-
ternoon. The Government will
not be represented at either
caucus.
The effect of the Presidents
scheme, if agreed to by both
sides, would be to establish a
month S truce in the strike, or
until August 10, during which
arbitration would be given a
thorough trial. At the end Of
that time, if an agreement
were not reached, new steps
would be, considered.
Plans for Arbitration.
The President proposed that
the Arbitration Commission be
composed of eleven men-three
from the miners, three from the
operators, ard five to be named
by the President himself.
This commission would be
named Immediately to begin its
work.
In his talk to the coal oper-
ators and miners, the President
said:
Presidents Warming.

ference Is deadlOCked, or at the
