TO AVERT
STRIKE IN COAL
BELIEVED THAT AGREEMENT
MAY BE REACHED IN An
THRAcITE FIELD BUT NOT
SOON-MAY BE A LONG
SERIES

thracite coal mine owners and work.
ers' committee of eight tonight be-
gan to organize for long series Of
deliberations in an effort to avert a
general strike by amicable settle
ment.
President John L. Lewis Of the
organization Of United
Mine Workers of America, and Sam
uel D. Warmer, chairman Of the
operators policies committee, both
members of the committee Of eight,
were optimistic. They expressed
doubt, however, that a new wage
scale could be drawn in time to pre-
vent suspension Of mining opera
tions in the hard coal field on April
1.
The whole mining industry, from
the digging of the coal in the col
leries to The shipment, distribution
and sale to the consumers, will be
taken into consideration in negotia-
ting the new contract, it was said.
The miners expressed a determi-
nation to "get down to the bottom
of costs and profits" The. owners
were equally emphatical in asserting
that every angle Of the industry
should be gone into, 'Despite the
great divergence of views; with
which we begin negotiations, I be-
lieye the committee intends honestly
30 Try to work out a solution In the
wage problem in the anthracite
was the statement Of Ar.
Lewis.
Neither he nor AR. Warmer,
speaking for the operators, would
predict upon what basis wages OF
the miners would be computed;
whether the demands Of the undyer-
sal adoption Of the eheek-off system
would be considered, or for how
long it was desired that the contem-
plated new contract should extend.
"The labor situation Is constantly
charging" said Mr.. Warriner. "The
cost Of living is going down,
though there is considerable unem-
ployment. Higher wages in the coal
industry are impossible at this time.
The public would have to pay the
increase, and it is not prepared to
do So"
Mr.. Warmer refused to estimate
what portion of a possible cut in
miners wages might be reflected in
reduced prices or coal to the con-
sumer.
With the appointment Of the ar
bitration committee of eight, the 35
representatives Of labor unions who
came here to present their 19 de-
mands to the operators last Wednes-
day departed for their various dis
tricts to await the outcome of the
Work in the mines will continue
they said, until April l., when the
1920 contracts now in force expire.
If, by that date, the committee OF
eight has not agreed upon a new
scale the mines automatically will
suspend operations in accordance
with a recent decision Of the union
wage conference at Shamokin, Pa,
and remain idle until new contract
is signed.

Gompers Assails Injunction.

Philadelphia. - President Samuel
Gompers of the American Federation
of Labor, in Labor day address, said
that the injunction issued against the
railroad shopmen was violation of
the constitution and the laws of the
land. He characterized the action Of
Attorney General Daugherty as "eXer-
cising a power never dreamed of in the

labor chief said the injunction was

Sept. II.
mass of complaints and allega-
tions of conspiracy and attempts to
ruin property and jeOpardize life were
being collected for the use OF Attorney
General Daugherty in support OF MS
application to make the injunction per-
manent. 1t will not be alleged that
the strikers are guilty in most of the
outbreaks of violence reported, but the
government, it was said, will maintain
that actions of the strikers or strike
leaders caused violence.
Extra forces of deputies have been
sworn in by United States Marshal
Robert Il. Levy and are being dis
patched to railroad shops and termin-
ais to watch for acts forbidden by the
order handed down by Federal Judge
Wilkerson. A thousand writs were
prepared in the federal building and
sent to all parts of the country for
service on the labor leaders named In
the injunction. b. NJ. Jewell. head OF
the shopmen, could not be found. John
Scott, secretary of the shopmen, re-
mained ut his desk at the union head
quarters.

said. "This organization never did
sanction or condone violence. But we
are going to carry on the work Of the
organization without fear or tremor,
and don't believe the injunction Is in
intended to restrain us from so doing"
Unions reiterated previous state
ments that If the strike continued the
railways would be paralyzed within
thirty days.

my husband knows that Dick West

must realize there will be plotting and
counter plotting here. He won't be
taken off his guard. But something
terrific might happen if we did man
age to find Jim-and Dick were on

The sound of my own voice made
me shiver. My own words conjured
up a memory of the mad fury in
which Dick West shot NeaI-and had
shot to kill. Better far that we should
lose every cent we had in the world
than that I should expose Jim to the

Yes. Because OF that he realized

ADVICE To The LOVELORN
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

The keynote to success is probably
so simple a thing as finding yourself.
Most of us think if we were only given
our Chance we'd be sure to make
good. We fancy that if we had some
powerful influence working for us
some important parsonage as a friend
we'd at once succeed
This reminds me of the legend of
the mountain of Ali Bahia. The magic
word which caused the cave door of
the 40 thieves to open of itself was
open Sesame" Now sesame is a
grain, and when one who wanted to
go into the cave forgot the password
he cried "Open Wheat Open Ryel
Open Barley" But the door did not
respond to any but the right word.
The trouble with those of US who
wait for someone else to open the
door to success is that we do not take
the trouble to learn the way to make
it open for us. The greater difficulty
is that no true success can come I'M
less it be through opening the door
of our own personalities. No one
can make much of life unless he
makes the most of himself and uses
his@own fulfi1lment and completion.
In the last analysis we have always
to do things for ourselves. No love,
however great and sympathetic and
und can see US through
crisis and difficulty. Our problems
are ours and we must solve them.
Sometimes we think we have more.
to bear than we can endure. But
there is a great and wonderful truth
in the words, Whom God Ioveth, He
chasteneth.'' It isn't the spoiled, pam
pered child who Is equipped to meet
life. It is the chastened Individual
who has learned how to live through
troubles bravely borne and problems
wisely met, who has a shining armor
against anything that may befan.
Some of us need the "open Sesame"
of faith. some require deeds.some need
struggle, some need understanding
but whatever each of US requires to
through meeting the problems Of ev-
cry day.
Even those of us who have no tai
ent,'' no outstanding gift. have riches
in our own natures as great as the IA
b1ed treasure OF the cave OF Ali Bahia.
I sometimes think the old Arabian
Nights story Is a parable wnlcn means
just this-that in ourselves is the
greatest treasure conceivable and that
all we need to do is to find the "open
sesame" which will admit us to that
treasure store.
Within ourselves we will find all the
potentialities and powers needed for
development. When we open our ma
lures to the sun of fine living and use
our powers we have found the magic
way to success and growth and the
deep satisfaction of fine constructive
living
