COAL STRIKE SURE.
BUT NO HARDSH|PS
Officials Say Storage and Nom
union Production Will Care
For Needs.
BY HARRY WARD.
By International News Service.

While high government officials
believe that a strike of bituminous
coal miners is inevitable, they point
out that such a strike will prove
futile in winning the miners wage
demands.
"A careful survey indicates that
on April /, when the present con-
tract between the miners and oper-
ators expires, there will be close
to 50,000,000 tons of soft coal above
ground, with nonunion mines pro-
ducing about 100000 tons a week.
and with a domestic consumption
of between 100000 and 5000, 900
tons a week, and, therefore, the
efforts of the United Mine Workers
to tie up the country with a strike
will prove unavailing." a high Off
cial declared yesterday.
Secretary of Labor Davis is mark
ing time in sounding out the oper-
ators as to whether they would
agree to a conference with the
miners. 1t is indicated in well-in-
formed quarters that II the pro-
posed conference Is held 1t will
fail in bringing about a settlement.
When the present contract expires,
II is said, the various state groups
of operators will quietly arrange a
new working arrangement with
their men, who will agree to take
cut in wages. Such an arrange.
ment, It was said, will mark the
end of a national agreement be-
tween the operators and miners.

children were forced to work in a
Northeast bakery, the survey was
temporarily delayed by abnormal
conditions due to the signing Of the
A corps Of workers has been in
Washington this week completing
the survey and bringing II up to
date. They have been working
under the direction OF DIR. Hastings
II. Hart, Of the Russell Sage Founda'
ton and president of the American
Prison Association, assisted by DR..
w. II. Slingerland, or Lancaster
Ohio.
The report will show that the
District is far behind the States in
the matter Of laws to safeguard de-
pendent children and that the Board
Of Children's Guardians is crippled
in its work by lack Of adequate APP
preparations from Congress. This
board has under it's care approx.
mately 1000 annually, many OF
whom II is forced to place in homes
and institutions outside OF the
District.
Displaying it's keen interest In
the children's survey, the Monday
Evening Club has made an ar-
preparation OF 5000 to pay the cost
OF putting the report In pamphlet
form to be distributed among mem
bers Of Congress, who will be asked
for more and better children s
legislation, and among social work
ers in the District.
