COAL STRIKE

Philadelphia, Aug. 26.-Hope Tor
early settlement Of the anthracite sus-
pension has been revived.
After a conference last night with
John L. Lewis, President of the United
Mine Workers. Senator George Whar.
ton Pepper, Pennsylvania, declared
that "no insurmountable difficulties
exist in the path of anthracite peace"
Indications that the joint conference
which ended abruptly last Tuesday
may be resumed in the near future, is
found in reports that Secretary OF
Labor Davis and Hymel Davies, chief
conciliator Of the Bureau of Labor,
nrobably win bold conference with
Lewis some time today.
The conference between Senator
Pepper and Lewis lasted nearly three
hours. Others present included Phil
lip Murray, international vice-presl-
dent Of the mine workers and VIM.

ers.

anthracite industry, and the various
settlements thai have been effected

in obtaining the miners viewpoint on
them and particularly in the present
situation. With this knowledge ! will

with the operators"
Senator Pepper said he did noe
know when he would see Samuel d.
Warriner, spokesman for the opera
tors. but thought it would probably be
Monday. Warriner is out of the city
at the present time.
Samuel Gompers, president Of the
American Federation or Labor, ar
rived here late yesterday He went
to the Bellevue Stratford hotel, where
Lewis has established headquarters.
Gompers said ne did not come here
to advise Lewis. but 10 assist him If
possible. He said the matter was en-
tirely in the hands of Lewis and his
assistants. After a conference with
Lewis Gompers said he strongly sup
ported the miners chief in his actions

Cummins and Attorney General
Daugherty held long conference with
the president at the White House last
evening. Cummins said they mapped
out seizure plans, to be made effective
whenever it was felt the emergency
had developed. Another conference
will be held today.
Administration officials have not
given up their efforts to bring about
settlement of both strikes. Secretary
of Labor Davis and Senator Pepper,
of Pennsylvania, are representing
the president in another effort to bring
the warning factions together.
Pepper now is in Philadelphia with
word from the president to the leaders
: thc United Mine Workers and the
representatives of the anthracite OPP
orators.
The miners are adamant on their re-
fusal TO submit their differences to ar
bitration. They fec that the strike
is won, and that the hard coal pro-
duction. 30.000.000 tons behind, the op-
orators will be forced TO settle.
In the railroad strike the attitude
of the shop workers leaders and the
"dis-hards" among the railroad exc
cutives indicates determination to
fight it out to finish.
Meanwhile, the senate is centerlng
It's activities on strike legislation.
Under special agreement, suggested
bv Senator McCumber, the bonus was
temporarily laid aside. to pave the
way for immediate disposition OF the
Borah and Cummins coal bills.
Borah's bill, providing for COM
mission to investigate the coal indus
try. was to be considered first.
Cummins' bill, creating a Federal
Fuel Distribution agency, and grant
ing additional powers to the Interstate
Commerce Commission to tissue orders
for priorities, embargoes and other
suitable measures for the equitable
distribution Of coal" during the pres
ent emergency was before the Inter
state Commerce committee for action.
1t was believed the bill would be re-
ported to the senate early in the after
noon.

Washington. Aug. 26.-Plans for
federal operation of the anthracite
mines and railroads that fail to func-
ton, have been completed by Presi-
dent Harding and his advisers. 1t was
made known today as the anthracite
and railroad strikes appeared hope
lessly deadlocked.
A final report will be made to bring
about peace in the hard coal fields. If
this fails Senator Cummins. after a
conference with the President, said he
would introduce a measure next week
calling for federal operation of the
mines.
Seizure of the railroads is not con-
templated until the managements have
been given full opportunity to demon
strate their ability to maintain salts
factory service.
If the lines show signs Of breaking
down. Cummins said another measure
for seizure of the roads will be placed
before congress.
1t is not the intention of the govern
ment 10 make a nationwide seizure OF
the roads at one time, although. The
bill giving the president the power to
take over the lines may vest him with
blanket authority to operate the entire
transportation system at one time,
Cummins made it known.
The moves for the enactment or
legislation empowering the president
% seize both the anthracite mines and
the railroads grew out Of sort Of a
panicky fear that suddenly arose in
the Senate and House over the critical
industrial situation.
The anthracite strike has cut off the
coal supply of the great industrial
states of the east and New England,
threatening actual suffering this win
ter. while it seems improbable that the
railroads will be able to move the rec

Advocates of the bonus will dispute
only two names on this list. They are
those of Senators Pomerene and Smith,
both of whose votes are claimed by
the American Legion for the bonus
bill. However. the most recent and
most reliable information makes 1t
appear that both will vote against the
measure and there is also the addition
of Senator Reed. of Pennsylvania, who
has already announced he is opposed
to the mOnuS.
But the poll reveals that in any
event the vote will be very close. One
or two votes either way might de-
termine the result, and if Senators
listed above should diSappoint the oo-
ponents of the bonus and vote for the
measure. there is a chance that 1t
could be passed over the veto.
Despite the fact that more than ten
or twelve Senator's have had it direct
from the President that he will veto
the bonus. there are still those like
McCun,ber. of North Davota. and Cur
tis. of Kansas, who confidently believe
the President viii weaken at the last
minute and sign the hill because OF the
comparatively overwhelming majority
bv which it will pass the Senate and
nv which it has already passed the
