Before Rail Labor Board.

SOUTHERN OHIO MINES
DECLINE LEWIS'S OFFER
Do Not Favor Interstate Ac-
tion on Basic Wage.

COLUMBUS, Aug. 2.-Afirming an oral
statement of a few days ago, w. d. Nc
Kinney, secretary of the Southern Ohio
Coal Exchange, to-day said the organi-
zation formally has decided not to ac-
cept the invitation of John l.. Lewis,
president of the United Mine Workers,
for a conference OF central competitive
field operators and union officials at
Cleveland Monday, called to negotiate
settlement of the coal strike.
The declination sent to Lewis reit-
Grated the southern Ohio operators
stand that they do not believe in inter-
state action to negotiate a basic wage
agreement.
"Operators and miners in States and
districts should meet and solve their own
problems" Mr.. Mckinney wrote to the
union chief.
"The welfare of the employees of
southern Ohio mines, as we'll as the
operators and the communities in which
they live. must be given first hand con-
stderation, which can only be given at a
meeting Of the operators and representa-
tives OF the United Mine Workers Of
Southern Ohio in a district conference.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. John l.. Lewis,
international president of the United
Mine Workers, to-day received replies
from coal operators in response to his
invitation to the mine owners to meet
the mine workers in Joint wage confer
ence at Cleveland next Monday. he ue-
clined to make any OF the teiegrams
public. but said he would review the re-
plies when he had heard from all the
coal interests invited 10 the conference
The miners chief will remain here until
probably Friday before leaving for
Cleveland
The New York herald., 1922-08-03

United States, During the last five
years the average working time of ths
mines has been 200 days, leaving al
average of 100 idle days per year. With
allowance for interest on investment
labor and supply costs on idle days
taxes, insurance and depreciation, it Is
figured there Is more than $120. 100000
lost on invested capital per year. on
the basis of 81 per day wage the loss
to the bituminous miners Is estimated
at close TO s280,000,000.
One big result SO far as the general
consuming public is concerned, Is that
excess of mines in operation, the number
OF idle days and idle miners in all the
mines, compel the fixing of coal prices
on the basis of the least economic
mines.
The problem that will confront the
Administration when the strike Is settled
is how to limit coal production to suf-
ficient number OF mines of high product
ivity and low operating costs and how
to adjust the industry to a drastic re-
duction OF the number Of men employed.
While there are hundreds of factors to
the problem, these are the two outstand-
ing evils that must be rooted out be-
fore there is peace in the industry ana
supply to the public at reasonable cost
assured.

REFUSES VACATION
AND GETS ARRESTED
u. s. Worker Accused in
Theft of Guns.

William III. Smith, who opens mer-
chandise at the United States Appraisers
Warehouse, Washington and Christopher
streets. recently declined to accept his
vacation because, he declared. the Gov
ernment needed his services. Special
Agents James Lynch and George Barron
of the staff OF William III. Williams. at
the Custom House, had been trailing
Smith and suspected that he had other
reasons for remaining on the job. They
learned that a large number OF i'm
ported automatic pistols had disappeared
from packages consigned 10 importers
here and that pistols OF this sort were
the special weapons % local gunmen,
chiefly members OF the Hudson Busters
and the Gopher Gang.
On Tuesday night special agents arr
rested Smith M he was leaving the
Appraisers Warehouse. They say they
found on him six automatlcs valued at
sSa and that Smith confessed the theft.
II Is said that about $4,000 worth OF
automatic pistols have been stolen In
recent months while passing through the
stores for appraisal

worried by the coal situation in view
OF the fact that 1t has contracted for

Members of the New York Towhoat
Exchange communicated with Herbert
Hoover regarding their being placed on
the priority list for the coal shipments

ceive careful consideration. 1t also is
believed that the American Steamship

Washington, ID. c., Aug. 2.
Whatever SUCCESS attends the efforts
now under way to solve the national coal
problem growing out OF the long strike
OF the union miners, the Harding Ad-
minlstration is convinced that any set
tlement must be purely temporary which
does not overhaul the entire basis of coal
production in America.
1t has become a commonplace In Ad-
ministration circles that the root of the
evil in the coal industry, the cause
which operates to make strikes 'recur-
rent shortages and threatened famnes
Is the complete absence of economy. both
as regards labor and coal resources.
Estimates that receive Confirmation
from the figures compiled by the bureau
Of labor statistics of the Department of
Labor indicate that the combined yearly
loss to labor and capital in the coal
industry due to idle days and the opera
ton OF uneeonomic mines amounts to
something like $40e,000.000.
This does not take into account the
loss that accrues to the general public
from the fact that 100000 mine en-
pioyees are idle for 10 days year.

Railways to Get Fuel Under
Direction of the Federal
Distributor.
TRAFFIC SHOWS INCREASE
Three Coal Carrying Roads
Consider Modifying Freight
Embargo.
Docior Dispatch to THE New YORK HERALD.
New York Herald bur eau,
Washington, ID. c., Aug. 2.


New York Herald Bur eau,
es Washington, ID. c., Aug. 2.
Detailed plans for coal distribution
under direction of the Federal. Govern
ment during the existing emergency
were announced to-day, following their
approval by Secretary of Commerce
Hoover.
The organization provides for the
ultimate distribution of all coal pro-
duced under Federal Government to
the States and by each State to its
consumers Until the organization is
in full swing and absolute priority
needs are shown, coal operators and
shippers will keep up their normal de-
livery and usual business, but it is an
nounced that the priority orders from
Washington will gradually absorb all
production and there will be no coal
left for delivery through regular chan
nels.
All railway coal will be supplied on
orders from Federal Coal Distributor
Spencer in Washington.
A conference will be held in Washing
ton tomorrow between officials of the
three Southern coal carrying roads serv-
ing non-union coal mines, which declared
an embargo on general freight, and
members of the Interstate Commerce
Commission to review the situation and
to plan for partial lifting OF the en-
hargoes. The railroads affected are the
l'haGanaatxa Norfolk
Western and the Louisville and Nash
vile.
Traffic conditions on these roads has
greatly improved under the embargo
orders and it is expected that they can
soon begin the control of general freight.
This action will restore traffic to a
nearly normal basis.
