n. matter for speculation. Mr.. Cradle
declined to comment on that phase of

SOFT-COA[ CHIEFS
MAY ACCEPT OFFER
Approval Of Presidents Arbitra-
ton Proposal Expected
by Tonight
HOLD GENERAL Meeting

Washington. July Il. - Over night
discussions of bituninous coal mine
operators, who have met here to re-
spond to President Harding's offer OF
arbitration as means of settling the
coal strike. developed great diversity
of opinions. 1t appeared likely, how
ever. that there would be In the hands
Of the President before tonight an
acceptance of the arbitration proposal
virtually without condition and that q
majority of the employers would join
in its support.
The operators spent most of the night
meeting in groups representing partic-
ular districts. They proceeded today
to go into general session and to
make an attempt to draw up pro-
posal that would get unanimous SUP
port. On the basis of the separate
meetings 1t was said that Illinois opera.
tors. section of Ohio operators and
delegates from operators associations
! in the Southwest and West generally
favored acceptance.
The Indiana contingent was consid-
erably divided in its view as between
acceptance and rejection, while some
Onto operators and those from Penn
syIvania were definitely averse to ac-
ceptance of the Presidents proposal.
Secretary Hoover discussed the sit.
uation with individuals among the oper-
ators and was understood to have urged
acceptance. He later went to the
White House. Alfred NJ. Ogle, chair.
man of the general operators confer.
ence group. expressed hope that a re-
sponse to the President could be drawn
up which would be acceptable to all the
I ratOr proups roprocoptod
Mr.. Oglc and William Field, repre
senting the Pittsburgh producers, were
called to the White House prior TO the
assemblage of the operators in their gen :.
eral meeting. 1t was understood that
President Harding desired to urge that
operators groups which have been ad. (.
verse to the Government arbitration
proposal reconsider their stand, Sec.
retnry Hoover also participated in the
conference.
There were also indications that in {.
dividual operators in Central Pennsyl.
vania had determined to Join with
groups Of operators in other parts of
) the country who are willing to accent
Government arbitration, even though
the general tenor Of opinion among
PENNSYLVANIA operators was said TO be
in opposition to acceptance.
Secretary Davis would venture no
comment today concerning the attitude
OF the miners representatives in de.

sources that the refusal of the miners
to avail themselves of the Government
offer might not be accepted as final

"There has been some slight .d!sor.

Mr.. Debs said This has been the ex :
tent Of the violence. but Il has been
sufficient to bring TO the strikers what
they fought for in the late World War.
The Federal Government announces
through the Department Of Justice that
II will stand no trihing on the part Of
