WARNS OPERATORS
 AGAINST RAISING PRICE IN ALABAMA
Governor May Call Legisla- ture Into Session to Prevent Possible Exorbitant Prices
 During Winter
By FRED H. GORMLEY Montgomery Bureau, The Age-Heraid, 221-2 First National Bank Building

Montgomery, August 16-(Spe- cial. .)-Coal profiteers in Alabama will be deprived of cars in which to ship their commodity, and if this method fails to maintain fair prices, Governor Kilby has another method which will be effective, according to formal statement issued by the governor Wednesday afternoon.
 Governor Kilby also made public telegrams which he had exchanged with Herbert Hoover, national fuel administrator, and letter warning coal operators that profiteering would mean the elimination of pri- ority rights for coal cars which was sent by Roy R. Cox, state fuel ad- ministrator.
 Governor Ixilby did not say
 what other method he had in
 mind but discussions nt the cnpi-
 toI indicated that the governor
 would call nm extra session of the
 legislature if necessary to pre-
 vent the charging of exorbItant
 
 ter. In telling of the states
 plans for the protection of pur-
 chasers of conI Governor Kilbv
 said thnt if the efforts of the
 public service commission and fuel administrator fail "the remedy of last resort will be np-
 plied-nnd it will he effective" Herbert Hoover made formal cons plaint to the governor that coal op- rof af A Ioh h,t hoA f1 abide by the Garfield fair prices which were established by agree ment. Governor Kilby replied that the Alabama law did not give the state authority 10 control prices at this time, but cars could be withheld from coal operators who did not com- ply with the fair price list.
 Fuel Administrator Cox then wrote letter to S. l.. Yerkes, representa- tive of the coal operators on the dis trict coal committee at Birmingham. advising that the public service com mission proposed to furnish cars first to those operators who are abiding by the Hoover fair price.
 HOover's Telegram
 MT. Hoover's telegram to Governor Kilby follows: Mir. Yerkes, repre- senting the Alabama coal operators. reports to me today that 75 per cent of the coal operators fin the district now decline to abide by their agree ment with me as to prices He fur ther informs me that even with sub stantial raise in price not more than 65 per cent of operators would sub scribe such new agreement. Whole problem of fair prices Is one that pri- marily concerns the people of your state and immediate neighbors. We have sought by appeal to higher in- terests of public and industry to keep different states in line on fair basis of prices founded upon Garfield prices with adjustments to meet changed conditions. "Inasmuch as wage scale in Ala bama had been reduced below Gar field basis operators agreed with me June 1 that 25 cents per ton below Garfield prices would be fair to them and the public and these scales were maintained until recently.

RAIL STRIKE ID BE

 HARRISON ASSERTS
People of South Demand Justice, President of Rail- road Declares Asks Aid
 of Public
Rx Aseocinted Press


 Washington, August 1s.-Fairfax Harrison. president of the Southern railway. in a statement today said that the people all over the south who pay the freight, want justice 6cne--no more, no less--and to that end, now demand that this strike will be fought out.
 He said this was the temper of the south, which territory the South ern serves, as evidence In responses to his statement of Monday In which he declared that if 1t meant war to operate the Southern railway, then let 1t be war now and not later. In that statement he called for aid In filling places of the strikers and said that those who took the places of the strikers would be protected. His statement today follows:
 Want Justice
 Normal transportation will be re- stored when public opinion supports the determination of the striking shopmen to disregard the judgments of the tribunals set up by Congress to do them justice. and agrees that they may write their own pay cheeks then there may be a resumption of work on that basis, but freight rates must be increased. On the other hand the responses received to my public statement on Monday last show that the people all over the south, who pay the freight, want justice done-no more. no less-and to that end now demand that this strike be fought out.
 Tt remains for those who feel that way about it to volunteer their active aid in the shops and round houses during the crisis. The South ern will afford an opportunity to all citizens to assert themselves, ard, under protection to give practical te- feet to their opinions in the present situation"

HARDING ID OFFER PLAN ID CONTROL
 PRICES OF COAL
Will Suggest Legislation Civ ing Authority to Fuel Emer- gency 0rganization-To
 Continue Agreements
By Associated Press

Washington, August 16-Presi- dent Harding in his contemplated statement to Congress on the indus- trial situation will suggest legisla- tion giving the federal fuel emer- gency organization power to control distribution and price of coal to safe guard the country against hardship this winter, according to officials who talked with him today.
 The President was reported as con- sidering seriously recommendations for definite legislation to provide legal powers to supplant the voluntary system of coal control now In op- eration and was understood to have before him a draft of tentative plan of fuel administration prepared by Secretary Hoover. Creation of a federal coal commission also would be recommended it was reported. which would be designed to make a thorough investigation of the na- tional coal industry and suggestion for the permanent solution of labor problems.
 Pending enactment of empowering legislation the central coal distri- button officials, it was indicated, would continue fuel control under voluntary price agreements.
 Agreements to Hold
 Existing fair price agreements made with Mir. Hoover by producing operators were to be in effect dur Ing the strike but meeting of the federal coal commission with the commerce secretary and Fuel Dis- tributor Spencer today to consider the effect of partial settlement of the mine controversy upon price arr arrangements, decided that the agree ments would hold until production was more largely resumed.
 Mir Spencer declared 1t could not yet be assumed that the strike was settled and as operators generally were showing no inclination to with draw their cooperation there would be no change for the moment. Ap- plication of fair price agreements to the union mine fields as they re- sume production, he said, was under consideration. The price situation, he added had improved considerably in -the districts south of the Ohio and Potomac rivers but in the north it was not so good.
 Investigation of charges of prof iteering in coal, however, was ask cd by. Secretary Hoover today by Sen ator Borah. republican. Idaho, in a letter calling for suggestions as to immediate measures to prevent Of excessive price.

TWO ATTEMPTS ARE. MADE ID DYNAMITE. PASSENGER I RAIN
Defective Fuse Saves Many From Death or Injury. Freight Runs Into Dam-
 aged Track

Lives and safety of scores of pas sengers of the south-bound fast passenger train No. of the Louis- vile and Nashville road, were ieo- pardized Tuesday morning when a dynamite cap which had been placed on the tracks exploded and ignited fuse leading to the charge which had been placed beneath the rail, four miles beyond Boyles station, when the train passed over the cap. General Superintendent W. E. Smith of this division of the Louisville and Nashville, declared that defective fuse prevented the dynamite from exploding, and the wrecking of the train, with the probable loss of life and injury to passengers.

 Section crews who were at work near Turkey creek declared that they heard the explosion of the charge. although they paid 1t no particular attention, thinking that fishermen were dynamiting the crock. Distress calls from the whistles of the two engines quickly brought them to the scene. however, and the damage was repaired.
 A closer examination of the
 tracks revealed n second stick of
 dynamite, which had been in-
 tended to wreck the bridge, and
 which fniled to go off in the ex-
 pIosion of the first charge. In
 the event that the bridge had been
 blown up, one of the most serious
