ANTHRACITE MINES
TO REMAIN CLOSED
Operators Make No Attempt to
Produce Coal or Import
Workers
HARDING IBID" UNHEEDEO

Spec'di Dispatch 10 Ercnirot Pubic i"i3"r
WILKES. Barre. Pa. July 10.--Hard
coal orera.or will not make any at
tempt to mine coal or import strike
breakers. It is declared. The "invi-
tation" Of President Harding will not
change the situation that has existed in
the anthracite districts since the walk
out on April I.
Union leaders frankly admit that the
first attempt to mine coal will result
in an order that will call the main;a-
nance men from tho work they are now
doing in preventing tho mines fron
flooding and in preserving property.
Operators declare that it would ha
difficult to get skilled labor to proAuc'
enough coal TO make the attempt wort II
whi'e. There is not any likelihood
that the ranks of the union would be
broken by the reopen,ng of the mines
That would mean that labor would have
10 be imported To get 1J5 900 mrn o.
any considerable part Of that number is
gigantic task. and, inasmuch as re-
sumption Of mining would involve tho
calling Of maintenance men from their
job. the risk iS considered too great.
Anthracite operators and miners are
Il unit in one thing. That is that tn"
hituEinous situation must be cleared
before there can be adjustment Of th'
hard coal difference. The market is th'
kcvnote TO the whole situation. Market
prices will he governed 20 large rX-
tent by wage costs and until tho an
thraritr half knows what bituminous
prices will be the hard coal controversy
will remain in status quo.
Pottsvillc. Pa. July 19.--Prcsidont
Uorling's directions to resume coal
mining caused no change in the situa-
ton here today. not stroke of work
being done except at small operations
which are furnishing fuel for local sup.
uly and which the mine workers have
made no efforts to stop.
Anthracite operators decline to dis
ruSs tho question as to whether they will
make an effort in the near future ia
break the strike.
The much needed domestic sizes Of
coal can be mined at strippngs. Of which
there are Il number here. and If an
attempt is made to break the strike it
will probably be at these places.
Shamokin. Pa. July 10. 49, Union
leaders of District o. United Mine
Workers Of America. who have their
hcaduunrtrrs in this citv. insisted today
that the aim Of President Harding to
furnish military protection to the coal
oncrators wishing 10 open their mines
with unskillcd hands means nothing.
They set forth that unskillcd hands
cannot mine coal and that the State
law provides that no miner be allowed
to Cut coal until he passes II state
examination. The law also provides
that it is necessary to work rs II la
brrcr for two years before n person can
take the examination for certificate.

Premier Poincare is regarded in we'll
informed circles in Paris as having
mancuvpred Prime Minister Lloyd

Government will agree to reduce con-
siderably the French debt TO England
and to rcnouncc the British share in
German rcparations.
The British position is presented az
insisting that Germany could not pay
all that is being demanded of her and
that France must agree to less.
The substance of the French reply
has been:
You ask. France to take less: are
YOU willing to accept less yourselves?
You want France to pay her war debts
to you. but not to insist upon payment
Of her claims. collectively authorized
by the Allies against Germany"
Mr.. Lloyd George is described as

French point of view.

EDITOR OF WIDELY READ MAGAZINE
OF BUSINESS MADE BRIEF STOP
IN RAKLINS MONDAY

A. w. Shaw. of Chicago and New
York. accompanied by his two sons
was an overnight visitor in Iiawlins
Monday, en- route to his eastern
home, after a vacation spent in tour
ing Wyoming by automobile. Mr..
Shaw Is a banker. business man and
manufacturer, and is well known
throughout the United States "a the
editor and publisher of System" a
business magazine with an norm
Gus circulation.
He has been staying. among other
places, at the II. F.. Bar ranch.
which Is located in the heart of the
Big Horn mountains. and conducted
by Frank O. Horton. who had pro-
vided his distinguished visitor with
letters of Introduction to w. w.

admonished these gentlemen as fol-
lows. Anything you may do for
Mr.. Shaw will be appreciated by me,
If he wants money, give it to him; if
he gets in jail. get him out"
! Mr.. Shaw and his party departed
for Laramie and Cheyenne Tuesday
morning. In the August number of
System" which is just off the
press, Mr.. Shaw comments editorially
on present and future price levels
in commodities generally as follows,
under the caption about Prices:
Many economists and not a few
business men have ventured a pre-
diction that the first sterilization OF
prices to follow the upsets of the
decade now closing is to be at about
one and one-hah times pre-war levels
That a slow. longtime downward
swing may begin cQncurrently will
but agreement is general hat a
$50 per cent of 1913 prices there
will develop an initial basis fol
actual trading at equitable ex
change values.
This predicted e price leve
will not, of course. materialize over
night. 1t will develop gradually; tn
unexpected may eve arise to turn !
entirely aside. At present there ar
about as many prices above $50 PEE
cent of 1913 prices as there are be
low. Some will gradually recede
others advance. Mechanical develop
ments or other special condition!
may make exceptions of some lines
But it is most encouraging tina
the elimination OF the gradual de
velopment toward a new price leve
is now authoritatively predicted. Fol
the future is bright for our in
dividual businesses with price stabil
~iZation nee more at hand. and n ire.

The first of the week travel was
held up on the divide owing to the
unusual storm which has been rag
ing down the valley and filling the
higher points with snow and the
lower ones with mud. Several cars
were temporarily delayed until they
could obtain chains. 1t seems rather
Queer that anyone would attempt to
cross the continental divide o a
new and unknown road without hav-
ing chains among the rest OF their
equipment. They should know that
the new highway Is not exactly a

should be made for the elements over
head. At this writing the road has
gotten back to splendid shape and
any car or Ford car make the hump
