GOVERNMENT WAITS
FULL DEVELOPMENT
OF MINERS STRIKE
Daugherty Considering Pos
sible Legal Steps in Case
of Need.

WASHINGTON, March 21.-Whue
the government has not entirely
abandoned its efforts to get a settle
ment in advance of the coal strike
called for April / particularly in the
bituminous fields. and while the de-
partment Of justice is studying the
possibilities of legal redress in case
danger results to public peace and
welfare. ii was learned Tuesday in
white house and cabinet circles that
no action is contemplated unless the
strike develops.
Sec'y Davis Of the labor depart
ment had no comment to make when
word Of the United Mine Workers
call for suspension of work on April
/, in both the bituminous and an
thracite fields reached Washington.
but Atty. Gen. Daugherty Indicated
he considered that the legal branch
OF the government might take some
steps, particularly in case transpOr-
tation arrangement was occasioned
after the strike was under way.
At the white house the existence OF
a great coal surplus was emphasized
as a most important factor The GOV
ernment's surveys indicated, il was
said, that with production contin-
uing in non-union fields. the surplus
would prevent any shortages in in
dustry and should prevent any inha-
ton Of coal prices.
The governments concern with the
anthracite situation is not so great
because of the disposition there for
amicable relationship between the
mine owners and their union en-
plOyes.
Mr.. Daugherty, reviewing the legal
aspects, and mindful of department
of justice plans 10 defend railroad
operations by injunction against the
threatened strike suspension last Oc-
tober. declared that the coal strike
had not reached a point where his
responsibility began. He desired to
know. he said, whether the govern
ment. capable of preventing disrup-
tion Of railroad traffic by use Of legal
power. could also prevent the same
disruption, if occasioned by a short
age Of coal.
