SEE BRITISH VICTORY
IN COMMONS VOTE;
DEFEAT ''DIE HARDS'
CBy Associated Press)

LONDON, June N.-Pr1me Minister
Lloyd George and Colonial Secretary
Churchill apparently have turned the
edge of the opposition's trust based
on the Irish policy.
A virtual vote Of confidence was
given by the house Of commons last
night when 1t defeated, 342 to rs, a
motion proposed by the "die hards'
for a reduction in the salary of the
chief secretary for Ireland in disap-
proval of the governments policy and
the failure properly to protect Field
Marshal Wilson
The secretary for the colonies made
it clear in his statement that south
ern Ireland would not be allowed to
coerce Ulster and that the provisional
government in Dublin now must as
sert complete authority, the alterna-
tive being that the imperial govern
ment would resume complete freedom
of action.
Provisional Rule Backed.
The prime minister again outlining
the policy toward Ireland said the
elections had shown that the provis-

behind it and that it now must prove
whether it was fit to govern.
Mr.. Churchill's warning has met
with widespread approval, most of the
newspapers declaring the country will
endorse the line the government has
taken. The exceptions are the Daily
News and the Westminster Gazette
which regret the secretary's threats.
The Gazette says no language could
be less helpful to Arthur Griffith and
Michael Collins in their formida BILE
task of putting the free state govern
ment on a solid basis and continues:
can'st Suspect Faith.
ut will be seized upon by the viol-
ent elements in Irish politics as justi-
fication of their suspicious of British
integrity We have no right
and no reason as yet to suspect the
good faith of the new rulers Of south
ern Ireland; they must be given a
chance. The right policy is to leave
Ireland alone, free from threats or
suggestions that the new constitution
can be snatched away"
The Daily News finds 1t difficult to
believe that Mr. Churchill's pronounce
ment can do anything but harm and
takes the view that bloody anarchy
in Ulster" is the key to the situation.
The Times on the other hand says
that the secretary's solemn declara-
ton will be reached throughout the
length and breadth of Great Britain.
"The moment has come for Collins
to choose between two paths-that of
the treaty, and that of anarchy" the
newspaper asserts. IF he follows the
path of the treaty he may yet secure
peace in Ireland and an honorable for
her among the free nations of the en-
pire.
Field Marshal Wilson's death must
be avenged by the Irishmen them
selves and it were well if they could
begin to make amends straightway."

GOVERNMENT
TO ARRANGE
COAL PARLEY
Harding Feels Difficult Situa-
ton Not Aided by Public
Announcements - United
States May Participate.
STEP is TO BE SECRET
(Ry Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, June 27-Indica-
tion5 were given at the White House
today that the government soon would
be able to give announcements on the
coal strike situation, and that the
step contemplated was to bring the
leaders and operators of mines to-
sether for a discussion of wage diff
ferences. Harding was said to feel
that 'the difficult" and delicate" ne
gotiations between individuals and the
government necessary to bring about
the meeting would not be aided by
public discussion. Operators who
have objected to meeting the miners
in national or semi-national wage
conference and mine union spokes-
men who have been objecting to dis
trict conferences cannot be induced
to yield if they are publicly forced
into concession, in the opinion of the
president. 1t was said today at the
White House discussion, II the govern
ment found it possible to call a con-
ference, a representative of the gov
ernment would attend. Operators
who face in some instances charges
of conspiracy under indictments under
the Antitrust law because of parti-
ings, will not be invited to attend the
conference unless the administration
shares the responsibility with them
by participating in the joint meeting,
it was added.
Union Still Firm
Although John L. Lewis, president
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea, who came here Sunday at the re-
quest of Secretary Davis expected to
remain another day in Washington, he
was said to have no further appoint
ments with officials today.
Announcement that the union had
not altered its position that new
wage scale for the bituminous industry
must be negotiated through national
or semi-national conferences with op-
orators, was made by Mr.. Lewis yes
terday after luncheon conference at
the White House with the president
and Secretary Davis The meeting fol
lowed protracted discussion of the
strike situation between Mr.. Davis and
the miners union president yesterday.
In addition to a general discussion
of problems of the bituminous industry
Mr. Lewis said he explained 20 the
president at the White House confer
ence what he believed to be the fulfil
ity of attmpting settlements by joint
conferences of operators and miners in
individual mining districts, as pro-
posed by the operators, whose refusal
before last April to meet in the wage
scale negotiations of the central com
petitive was the controversial point in
the strike

REMOVAL OF INJURED
PROBLEM At HERRIN;
twelve IN DANGER
rBv Associated Press }

HERRIN, ILL.,, June 27-Removal to
safety from bloody Williamson coun-
ty and the southern Illinois coal fields
of wounded non-union men now In
the hospital is one of the problems in
the wake of last Thursdays mine
massacres.
Twelve wounded survivors of the
forty-seven guards and workers who
were sent on the death march out of
the Lester strip mine, still are in
danger according to information reach
ing state and federal investigators.
Lying on their hospital cots, their
wounds swathed in bandages, some of
the wounded say they sensed danger
and express fear of further violence if
they leave the hospital unprotected.
Herrin's law respecting citizens be-
lieves body of state troops would
solve the problem and dispel any fur
