this strike in full measure.
As to who is right or wrong
in this industrial controversy
we do not pretend TO say, but
we do know that there ought
TO be some governmental steps
taken to prevent REPETITION of
this wholly unnecessary condi-
ton which future strikes will
surely bring. and perhaps even
worse than this one. Congress
should Immediately take notice
of the conditions and enact
such measures into law as may
protect and safeguard both the
rights of Labor and Capital but
above all. save the innocent
Public from the Incidental loss

Public sentiment will eventu-
ally force such laws and will
do so at an early date if the
strike continues much longer.

MINERS VOTE STRIKE
Nine Tenths of Men for Tie-Up on
April |, Union Leaders Say.
Only Possibility of Peace Lies in
Hope That Government May
Call Conference.

IndianapoliS-The strike vote OF
soft coal miners Was completed by 10.
cal unions scattered throughout the
country and though the exact returns
will not be known for week officials
OF the United Mine Workers OF Amer
lea here believed that nine tenths or
more OF the workers cast their bal
lots for a walkout on April l, unless a
new wage agreement is made in the
meantime
Chances OF getting a wage confer
ence with the operators Of the central
competitive field, comprising western
Pennsylvania, Ohio. Indiana and Hi
nois, seemed remote to the union
chiefs for no change in the attitude Of
operators opposing all interstate con-
ference resulted from the appeal Of
Secretary of Labor Davis for the two
sides getting together.
The only possibility for q confer
ence as viewed by union officials was
for the government calling both op.
orators and miners to Washington,
but no one at union headquarters had
any Information that such call was
contemplated by administration of.
fieials.
What may happen in the Pennsyl-
vania anthracite field depends on the
outcome Of the meeting between union
officials and operators at New York
Wednesday. To the extent only of
having arranged for a Joint conference
is the strike situation in the soft and
hard coal fields different though no
referendum vote was cast by the an
thracite miners. Their convention
however declared for suspension in
event a new wage agreement did not
provide for wage advances. In the
soft coal fields the miners ask the
retention of their present basic wage
scales
