sudden and dramatic change In the coal
situation. two things appear to stand
out.
First. that the President OF the United
States. operating quietly behind the
scenes, has finally brought the strike 20
a head. and practically on the terms he
proposed In his settlement plan which
both sides rejected In the Washington
conference last month.
Second. that the situation came to
head In q conference held last Sunday
In the Fort Pitt Hotel. Pittsburgh. be-
tween President A. NJ Ogle OF the Ma
tionai Coal Association and John NJ
Lewis OF the United Mine Workers of
America. representing the coal opera
tors and the mine workers OF the coun-
try.
News OF sudden break In the ranks
OF those coal operators who had opposed
an Interstate conference led to the tenn
porary adjournment to-day OF the con-
ference
The break took place In Indiana and
Illinois. Mine union chiefs and coal OPP
orators attending the opening OF the con-
ference received assurances that most

States would have their delegates in

The conference formally opened In

twenty minutes later on the announce
ment OF President John l.. Lewis OF the
United Mine Workers that more oper-
ators were expecting TO attend and
should be given time to get here. The
conference will be resumed Mt to-mor-

The main purpose Of the meeting In TO
draw up a basic wage scale for the
bituminous mining industry and by 80

Every operator and miner present to-
day seemed to be confident scale would
be completed Friday or Saturday.
The meeting will have two other pur-
poses, which are:
First---Taeaching a understanding that
scale conferences are TO commence IN

agreement. In order to prevent another
coal strike next year.

The figures to which Mr.. Dowd re-

statement by the labor bureau:
There was on July % surplus OF

The latter meeting was called to take
up the question OF use of alleged bad
equipment endangering the safety OF
railway operatives but the call says:
However, 1t is now apparent that no
constructive measure TO end the strike
is being proposed" and the railroad
unions should unite on d solution.
1t Is significant the statement that
no constructive measure was proposed

sented his own personal point of view.
Mr.. Loree presided at the regular Mon
day meeting OF the New York group OF
railway executives at 80 Nassau street.
After the meeting he said:

railway executives on August they
took the position squarely that the

decision. and the compliance by both
with the decision rendered.

1T would seem clearly that this re-
quest demands a complete surrender OF
the position of the railroad presidents
as stated last Tuesday"
The local strike committee said II
was difficult to see how the railroad
presidents possibly could refuse Presi-
dent Harding's second offer, but de-
clined to make further comment until

ferring with Mr.. Harding.
Although none OF the executives ex-
cept Mr. Loree would be quoted on the
Presidents proposal. 1t is known that
several of them believe the seniority
question may safely be left to the labor
board. Throughout the strike Mr..
Loree has insisted that seniority rights
must not be restored to the strikers un-
der any circumstances. When Presi-
dent Harding's first peace proposal was
rejected a week ago. Mr.. Loree alone
refused to approve the resolution. be-
cause 1T wasn't strong enough"
II the seniority decision Is left 70 the

II will be decided in their favor because

President Harding to-day presented
to the railway executives and the rep
resentatives of the striking railroad
shop unions a new proposal for settle
ment of the railroad strike which is
menacing the country. The President
called on the strikers 10 return to
work and upon the executives to give
them work.
President Harding proposed that as
both sides to the controversy had
agreed to the first two Of his pro-
posals of July 81, thereby pledgins
themselves to recognize the validity OF
all decisions by the Railroad Labor
Board and TO carry them out in good
faith under the law, therefore the one
disputed point In article three on
seniority be referred to the board and
adjusted by that body. He suggested
that would be a fair adjustment.
Representatives of the striking men
here take the position that the pro-
posal Is an uncalled for attempt to
break the strike. They say that II the
Presidents proposal of July 81 for
restoration by the roads Of seniority as
condition for going back TO work was
just and fair, then it is still just and
fair and the men should not be asked
to surrender because the executives
had turned down what the President
considered a just proposal
B. NJ. Jewell. head OF the shop
crafts, declared President Hardings
latest settlement plan was "a most
uncalled for attempt to help the rail-
roads break the strike; nobody ought
to get the idea the shop federation
will accept"
Dispatches from Chicago late to
night stated that the railroad labor
board was willing to act on the
seniority issue between the roads ano
the striking shopmen. The boar.
went on record by adopting a reeolu-
ton to this effect.
