WARMPR0TESTS
|. ON RAIL STRIKE
Western and Midwestern Leg
isIators DeIuged With Appeals
To Hasten Peace.
BY j. BART CAMPBELL.
International News Service.

Vehement protests against the
people having to pay for the coal and
railroad strikes began to be voiced
today by Republican Senators as
they were deluged with teiegraphic
appeals for relief from car and fuel
shortages and tie-ups.
Senators Capper OF Kansas and
New of Indiana, representing usual.
iy an entirely different Republican
viewpoint, expressed deep concern
over the prospect Of acute suffering
ensuing from even a partial paralysis
Of transportation in the immediate
future,
"It is not the farmers business to
fix the responsibility for the coal
and railroad strikes, Ior to decide
whether either the workmen, or the
railroads and the mine owners are
right" said Senator Capper. chair
man Of the Senate Agricultural
bloc" '...
''The farmer knows the coal strike
-bituminous and anthracite-should
have been settled before this. He
knows the railroad strike should be
settled.
when the great depression fol.
lowing the world war hit the country
the farmer paid. He not only worked
for less wages, If he were a farm
| hand, but he took less profit-in
many instances no profit at all-if
he were farm owner. He IL still
paying, for the profit from farming
Is less and the earnings from farm
| work are lower than in pre-war days.
THE railroad situation is intoler.
able" said Senator New. President
Harding has been extremely patient.
in my opinion, in dealing with both
sides in the hope of bringing them
together by peaceful negotiations. In
view of what has developed since the
President began his efforts to get
the railroad executives and workers
to adjust their differences amicably
am not surprised he feels he must
pursue some other course to avert
the possibility of a national disaster.
Even with the coal strike settled
the country will continue to face the
prospect of empty bins, frigid homes,
and closed factories. Even II coal Is
mined now in large quantities how
can 1t be moved II there is only a
partial suspension OF transportation
due TO. the railroad strike?
"And II there is a prolongation Of
the railroad strike there Is certain
to be increasing difficulty In moving
and supplying coal where 1t is most
needed, or in quantities sufficient to
meet most needs. even II the ground
around the mines is Uttered with
hundreds Of thousands of tons. One
need only recall our war experiences
to realize the gravity of the situation
confronting our people"
"And yet" commented Senator
Borah Of Idaho, chairman of the
Senate Labor Committee. "the ques.
ton of compelling men to work for
starvation wages is still to be
answered"

HOUSEKEEPING
OUT SCHEDULE
Of ACTIVITIES
First Attention centered on
Federal Handling Of
Strike Crisis.
by International News Service.

Republican leaders Of the House,
comprising the legislative steering
committee conferred today over q
work program for the present
House sessions.
A definite plan was not adopted
because of the uncertainty as to
whether President Harding should
consider It necessary to make rec
concentrations for immediate emer.
gency legislation to take care Of
the railroad and coal situation.
President Harding IL expected TO
address a Joint session of the House
and Senate tomorrow. Congress
man Steenerson, Republican, Min
nesota, said today he hoped the
President would ask authority to
take over the roads In order that
coal may be rushed to Lake ports
to supply the Northwest. Congress
man Anderson, Republican, Minne-
sofa, is prepared to tell the House
the plight Of tho Northwest In View
Of q coal famine.
y Congressman F ess,, Republican
Ohio, and other Republican leaders,
are desirous that there shall be no
seizure of the roads at the present
time. They do not think such
action would be polite or afford
relief from the present situation.
These leaders desire as little dis
turbance over the economic situa-
ton In speeches or otherwise rs
possible.

g,iment in favor of early action OH

FUR time, according to the

but every wise shopper knows
that fur time is in August. That
is the month when furs are dis

THIS is an item just for men.

lem--what can I give him? The
first Is a collar case of black
leather, lined with silk and
stamped on the flap-soft DOL

and soft collars do not agree, so
it is much more satisfactory to
provide a separate place for the
soft ones, and what could be
more attractive than a leather
case. The case is long enough

In addition. Secretary Hoover had
urged upon the executives at their morn
ing session. when the text of the Hard
Ing letter was read. that settlement of
the rail- strike was imperative in View OF
the complicating conditions introduced

It became apparent from the very
opening Of today's conference that the
seniority question would be the wedge
which would divide administration and
railway executives.
