HOPE FOR ENDING NATIONAL MINERS
 STRIKE VAN|SHES
Indiana and Illinois Operators Refuse to Enter Cleveland Coal Conference-Some
 Leaders Still Confident
By Associated Press

Cleveland, August S.-Expecta- tions of a settlement of the soft coal strike on a national scale vanished tonight among union officials and operators here for joint confer ence on peace plans with the receipt of reports of the failure of Indiana and Illinois operators associations to agree to join the conference.
 The hope. however was held out that settlement affecting scattering mines In Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania and possibly West Vir- ginia may result from the conference which reconvenes tomorrow.
 President John l.. Lewis of the miners announced that the confer ence would reasBemble to open ne- gotiations. The question, however, of whether the miners would be will ing to make d wage agreement with the operators now here was unde- cided and indications were that a decision would be deferred until after the afternoon meeting tomor row with the operators, most of whom own mines in ohio. A few op- orators also are here from Pennsyl vania, Indiana and Illinois.
 Unions Undecided
 While the number of operators here was increased today. no off cial poll had been taken of the coal output controlled by them and In it's absence the union had deferred de- cision on whether to proceed with a partial peace program.
 Confidence, however, was express ed by some operators and union leaders, that the number of operators willing to make settlement was sufficient to insiss a break In the strike. Some West Virginia opera tors were expected to join in the con- ference.
 The Indiana operators refused to join the conference and the Illinois operators committee adjourned until tomorrow without announcing a de- cision. No word had come from oper- ators in trans Mississippi soft coal fields. but their attendance was re- garded as doubtful. Mr Lewis de- clined to comment on the action in Indiana and Illinois. Only informal meetings among both the miners and the operators marked the day and participants said no decision had been reached affecting the strike.

HARDING REQUESTS LEADERS T0 KEEP
 HOUSE IN SESSION
Failing Early Settlement of Strikes, Executive May Ask Congress to Act-0f-
 fer to Be Rejected
By Associated Press

Washington, August 8.-President Harding has asked congressional leaders, in view of the menacing in- dustrial situation arising from coal and rail strikes to hold the House, now in recess, continuously in session, along with the Senate, after the House reconvenes next Tuesday.
 The prospect was that falling early settlement of the labor con- troversy. the administration might call for legislative action to enable the government to cope with condi- tions.
 Meanwhile. leaders of union trans portation organizations began to gather here for conference to de- termine the response to be made to President Harding's latest offer of a settlement basis for the shop mems strike and to determine. ac- cording to statements. what joint or cooperative action labor forces shall take in case the offer ia re- jected.
 Ask Rejection
 B. M. Jewell, chairman of the of- ficers of the striking unions. de- clared he had received hundreds of telegrams today from shopmen's To- calls telling us to reject the Presi- dents offer and not single one asking its acceptance"
 Separate conferences between cs- resentatives of it's striking shopmen broke up finally today when the men declared only national settle ment could be accepted. even though the railroad conceded seniority rights. Fairfax Harrison. president of the road. in a general notice to all of it's employees said that the company considered 1t had more than fulfilled its obligations to Its striking employees" and that its duty was now for unimpaired transpor- tation service, this we will per- form" he declared.
 Authorize Control
 Suggestions were advanced that Congress might be asked to author ize resumption of federal control over the railroad systems should President Harding find it impossible to terminate the strike satisfac- torily with the further possibility that directed general amending the transportation act might be sought to make railroad labor board de- cisions in wage matters binding.
 There was also a proposal in some quarters that Jurisdiction might be given the board by law

Washington. August s.--The shop crafts committee of the Southern Railway system and the Mobile and Ohio railroad meeting with railroad officials here today advised those officers that they will not make any adjustment of the strike with the Southern or the Mobile and Ohio as the strike Is national. and must be settled nationally.
 Failure to reach an agreement was announced after a conference of shop craft leaders and officials today.
 The conference was asked by Vice President Miller of the Southern week ago. The road announced it's willingness to settle with the men on the basis of the Presidents first proposal. which was rejected by the railroad executives meeting in New York. The conference originally

PO|NCARE' PLAN D|SAPPROVED BY
 GREAT BRITAIN
Delegates of England and Italy Feel French Premier'S Proposal Involves En-
 barrassing Position
By Associated Press

London, August S.--The proposal made by Premier Poincare of France for control of Germany's finances in return for moratorium for Ger many. seems not to have found favor with British and Italian financial ex- perts, mainly because they foresee that the plan would involve the allies in embarrassing political entangle- ments which would not be justified by what might be gained financially.
 This developed today during dis cussion of the Poincare plan by the financial experts when there were several animated tilts.
 There was no meeting today of the conference proper, the time having been devoted to consideration of the French proposal by the committee of experts. They will reassemble to- morrow. when they hope to be able to draft their report for submission to the conference in the afternoon.
 New Points Examined
 Among new points examined today were the possibility of establishing customs barriers on the eastern boundary of Germany occupied territory, whether it would be prac- tical to tax everything entering or leaving the Ruhr, the question of seizure of state-owned mines, forests and domains on the left bank of the Rhine. and also whether the 26 per cent of customs duties provided for in the agreement of May, 1921. which now goes to the allied treasuries. could, instead, be paid to the repara- tons commission. thus forming part of the separations fund.
 The Belgians today strongly sup ported the French viewpoint in op- position to the British. while the Itai- ians leaned toward the British posi- tion. which appears to be that it may easily be possible to resort to meas ures of such stringency as to defeat the object in view, while running the risk of ultimately disorganizing Ger many's economic life.
