HARDING FAILS
IN FIRST MOVE
TOWARD PEACE
Miners of Soft-Coal and
Operators Will Not
Modify Positions
LEWIS GAINS NOTHING
Impending Soft Coal Shortage Causes
Next Step to be Awaited Eagerly
President is Busy.

Washington, June 27.-With the
coal supply dwindling so fast that it
is a matter of only few weeks be-
fore the shortage will be acute, the
Harding Administrations plans for
quick settlement of the soft-coal
strike apparently are in collapse to-
day.
That is the condition of affairs, fol-
lowing statements by both operators
and miners, in which they stood firm
" to the positions taken before the
strike was called. The taking of those
positions resulted in the deadlock and
the strike. The deadlock is unbrOken
and the end of the strike is not in
sight.
Standing in the White House yes
terday afternoon, John L. Lewis,
president of the United Mine Work
ers of America, who had just had lun-
cheon with President Harding and
Secretary of Labor Davis, reiterated
that the miners will not go into any
conference with the operators unless
the conference be representative of
the cnkyal competitive field or ma
tional IN scope
At the Department of Labor Sec
retary Davis stated that communlca-
tions had been received from the
operators to the effect that they will
not go into any conference with the
miners except on a sectional or State
basis. That demand is the exact op-
posite of the demand of the miners
with respect to conferences. The in
sistcnce of the operators is undoubt-
edly a severe disappointment to the
Administration.
The Administration took the posi-
ton before the strike that the opera
tors should go into the sort of con-
ference demanded by the miners. In
the last week or two there mas been
hope in the Administration that the
operators would change their posi-
ton. and, it is understood, some Justl-
fication for the hope. But negotiations
within the ranks Of the operators re-
suited in determination TO adhere TO
their stand.
President Lewis was called to the
White House with Secretary Davis
for the purpose of attempting to
soften his position, it is believed, after
the attitude of the operators had be-
come known. 1t was not stated either
by the White House or Mr.. Lewis
that such was the purpose, but that
is believed to be the fact in well-in-
formed labor circles. And in a state
ment made to the reporters at the
White House Mr.. Lewis said he had
told the President that it was futile to
tly to use sectional or State con-
ferences to effect settlement.

CABINET MAY
GET A SHAKE
Up VERY SOON
Brown ReOrganizing Plan
Expected to Raise Row
When Made Public
WALLACE MAY RETIRE
of the Plan Will be
Made This Week-FOrestry May be
Transferred to Interior

Washington June 27.-President
Harding is expected to announce the
Brown plan for reorganizing the Gov
ernment executive departments before
he leaves for Marion Friday. When
he does, those who claim to have an
intimation of what Walter +. Brown
will recommend, say that the lid to
the long brewing Cabinet row will
blow off.
The most outstanding differences
within the Harding Cabinet since VIII
Hays resigned have been those be-
tween Henry c. Wallace, Secretary Of
Agriculture. and Albert B. Fall, Sec
retary of the Interior. 1t is the pre-
vailing impression in Washington
that Wallace has lost out with the
President in his fight to retain the
United States Forestry Service and
that the Brown report with the Presi-
dents backing will recommend its
transfer to Mr.. Falls department.
It is even suggested that the reor-
ganizers will propose that Dir. Wal
lace give up the Bureau of Markets
and the Bureau Of Public Roads, two
of the highly important sections of his
department. If that be the program,
those who know the Secretary have
no hesitation in predicting nc will
hand in his resignation.
Secretary Wallace'S relations with
the Harding official family, it is gen
orally known, have been none too cor
dial Of recent months. Most frequent
" il has been he who has been Of the
minority at the Cabinet meetings. The
occasion last winter at the farm con-
ference when President Harding &c
parted from the text of his prepared
remarks to denounce the Farm
Bloc" and Secretary Wallace later D
the dav arose and defended the
"bloc" has been near to repetition
more than once.
In the Cabinet meetings recently
the rumpus occasionsd by Secretary
Falls lease of the Teapot Dome Oil
Reserve in Wyoming is understood to
have been discussed. Secretary Wal
lace. according to the story, objected
emphatically and openly and as usua!
he was alone.
A few weeks ago it was expected
that in case Of a showdown. which
must come sooner or later on the For
estry Service controversy, the Presi-
dent would be found siding withWal-
lace. That belief appears now to have
been founded on the ominous rumble
that the Forestry Service suggestion
brought from the rural districts rath-
err than any personal leaning of Mr..
Harding. The Presidents recent in
dorsement Of Mr.. Fall and the an
nounccment that he had full conf
dence in whatever his Secretary Of
Interior did has served at least 10
change that belief.

ACCIDENT Was
UNAVOIDABLE
SAYS JURY
Investigation of Death of w.
E. Fitzgerald Made

An unavoidable accident was the
opinion of the coroner's jury sum-
moned by DR.. T. NJ. Jones which met

while riding bicycle Saturday norm
ing near the union railway station,
received fatal injuries when his ma
chine and an army motor truck from
Camp Humphreys driven by William
Norman, Company A. marine trans
port corps, came together.
The jury heard the testimony of
fifteen persons before rendering its
verdict. According to Norman he was
going mp the hill leading to the union
station, and Fitzgerald was coming
down the hill. Fitzgerald, he said,
seemed to come faster and faster,
and in order to prevent collision he
swerved the big truck into the hedge
nearby. However, he stated that F'itZ-
gerald ran right in front of his ma
chine striking the radiator. Norman
declared that at the time he was
cllying his machine at the rate of
about twelve miles an hour. Norman
also testified that in making the turn
of the road he held out his hand TO
indicate that he was going to make
The turn.
Andy Mullen, who was on the seat
beside Norman, practically corrobo-
rated the testimony Of the driver of
the truck.
There was a governor on the truck
and the machine would not go faster
than eighteen miles ali hour accord
ing to Patrick Crowley.
DR.. 5. B. Moore told the jury the
lad suffered greatly from shock and
in addition to sustaining compound
fracture Of the leg also received alb
dominal injuries.

From pocket to pocket he went, nerv-

happy smile on his familiar face died
and a cold, angry look came in its
place.
"Well, Pm little old and not as
strong as | used to be, but can lick
the fellow that took that flask out

man. "You cannot get that sort of
liquor every day."
Uncle Joe talked to empty seats,
