Refreshed by his ten days of rest and
relaxation, President Harding will

day when with members of his party
he boards the special train for the re-
turn journey to Washington. A last

dents program before his departure.

DELAY FIRST SESSION
+ OF MEETING To AVERT
SUSPENSION OF MINES
tBy Associated Press)

NEW YORK, March 1S.-The arbi
tration committee of eight of anthra-
cite coal miners and operators charged
with the task of negotiating a wage
agreement in time to. avert suspen-
sion of the mines April l, today re
duced the margin of safety to 10
days by deciding to delay their first
session until next Tuesday.
President John l.. Lewis, OF the
United Mine Workers, member OF
the committee, announced that the de-
lay was due to desire of labor union
men to consult their organizations and
amass data concerning the wage con-
troversy before opening the confer
ence.
1t is generally agreed that the terms
of a new contract cannot possibly be
drawn and agreed upon within the
ten days.
Negotiations of previous agreements
have required from month to seven
weeks, they point out and 1t is prob
able that the suspension of mines,
slated to take place at the expiration
Of the present contract April 1, will
continue for at least three weeks.
Operators expressed belief that
the new agreement would be drawn
and effective before the consuming
public feel coal shortage as the
supplies on hand would be sufficient
for considerably longer period.
