DISTRIBUTION
Of COAL PLAN
IS ANNOUNCED
Plan to Establish District
Committees in Fields to
Represent Federal Body

WASHINGTON, Aug. q Govern.
ment plans for distribution of coal
during the existing emergency were
announced tonight by Fuel Distribute
or Spencer after conference with Sec
retary Hoover and the central COM
mittee appointed by President Hard
ing. The federal organization in
Washington, he said, will cover the
among the railways, federal institu-
tions and states while the governors
of the states will bandle local supply.
Pending completion of the federal
organization, Mr.. Spencer said the in
termediate stages will ensue- first,
the continuation of their normal busi-
ness by the operators, then priority
buyers under the interstate commerce
commission service order No. % will
gradually encroach upon operators
business and finally, coal orders, plac-
ed through the federal fuel distribu-
tor will absorb the entire output of
the mines.
Provision has been made for the es-
tablishment of district committees to
represent the federal distribution ad
ministration in the producing field
with special arrangements for supply
ing the Great Lakes section. Detail
ed instructions were drawn up today
for the states which included the fix
ing of the responsibility for the pay
ment of all coal shipped into a state
upon the governors committee.
District committees sat up in the
coal fields are to consist of naval
officer, representing the federal dis
tributor. a representative of the inter-
state commerce commission, a repre-
sentative of the railroads, and a rep
resentative of the coal operators. Dis
tribution or coal for railroads is grad
ually to be concentrated into the
hands of the railway coal committee
composed of coal buyers from the diff
ferent railway groups.
State fuel committees are to report
at once the consumption of coal in
their territory by utilities household
users and industries together with a
list Of THOSE who should receive prior
tiles.
Governors committees were made
entirely responsible for the preven.
tion of profiteering and extortion in
the sale and distribution. of coal with
in their states and will distribute coal
made available to them according to
their Judgment.

HOPING To SET
FINAL DATE On
TARIFF DEBATE
Leaders on Both Sides Seek
ing Consent Agreement
on Final Vote

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-An unani
nous consent agreement tomorrow in
the senate for final vote on the ad
ministration tariff bill on either Aug
ust II or 19 was hoped for tonight by
both Republican and Democratic lead
ers.
Objection by single senator would
upset the carefully laid plans, but
leaders on both sides said they knew
of no senator who was unwilling that
there should be a speedy ending to a
controversy that has engaged the sen
ate practically continuously since
April 90
The first move for an agreement
for a final vote came from the Demo
cratic side, Senator Simmons of North
Carolina, after a conference with 9TH
er minority leaders proposing August
19 as the date. Action on this propo-
sition was deferred at the request of
the Republicans and after the senate
adjourned, majority and minority lead
ers went into conference. Just what
transpired at this session is not al
together clear but spokesmen for each
side were agreed that Senator Sim
mons would renew his original propo-
sition upon the convening of the SEN
ate at noon tomorrow, and that the
Republicans would put forward a coun
ter proposal for vote on August II.
Under the agreement submitted to
the senate by Senator Simmons, there
would be a final vote on remaining
committee amendments to the bill on
August IL. This was approved by the
conference, it was said by some of
those attending. Mr. Simmons pro-
posed that after that date. debate
should be limited to the tariff itself
with the time equally divided between
the two sides. Republican leaders
proposed that debate be confined
strictly to the bill and amendments
beginning tomorrow, but this detail
presumably would be settled on the
senate floor.
The conferees apparently were
agreed that the unanimous consent
agreement would not operate to pre-
vent Senator Gooding of Idaho, chair
man of the Republican agricultural
tariff bloc from offering his proposed
resolution for an investigation of the
interest, if any, of all senators in tar
iff duties voted into the bill. Such a
resolution could be introduced, how
ever, only by unanimous consent and
some Republicans indicated that this
probably would be difficult to obtain.

THE president has seen your letter

oughly gone into the case, with which
is dealing through a detachment of

Peace Suggestions

CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-(By the Asso-

peace proposals submitted by Presi-

leaders of the striking railway shop
men who, however, gave their inter-
pretations of each of the three sug-
gestions.

but commit ourselves to carry out the
terms, of settlement in utmost good
faith and in aid of the general well
fare" said the message of acceptance
which was sent to President Harding
tonight. 'If these proposals fail TO
bring about the results which you de-
sire the responsibility of failure will
not rest on representatives of the or
ganized employees"
On the proposal to restore unim-
paired seniority rights to the strikers,
which was rejected by railway execu-
tives, at a meeting yesterday in New
York, the message declared:
Tt would certainly be a wholesale
injustice of unparalleled extent if hun
dreds of thousands of experienced men
who have given four TO forty years
service and whose value to the trans
portation industry is proportioned TO
the length of their service, should be
placed in a position of inferiority to
limited number of men who have
been employed as substitutes for these
experincd railroad workers"
Replying to the presidents sugges-
tion that railroads and workmen agree
to abide by decisions of the railroad
labor board, the reply said the shop
men had always taken the position
that so long as they continued to rem
der service, they should abide by the
rules and working conditions and ac-
ept the wages agreed upon by proper
or determined by the la
Dor board after hearing of a dis
pute.
