ANTHRACITE SETTLEMENT
EXPECTED in FEW DAYS
Pepper Believes Settlement
Will Be Reached Without
Federal Intervention
(By United Press)

Washington, Aug. 28-Confidence
of settlement of the anthracite coal
strike within few days was express
ed by official spokesman in the
white house today shortly after the
return Of President Harding from a
weekend cruise with his "strike
cabinet" la IT,.
Because of this new optimism
there was a strong under current of
opposition in congress to seizure Of
the mines and railroads at the pres
ent time. The impression prevailing
is that action on legislation empow-
ering the executive to take over the
anthracite mines and some rail lines
would be delayed.
It was pointed out that President
Harding stated last week the legssla-
ton would not be pushed as settle
ment of the anthracite strike was
probable early this week.
