j. s. ACTION IN
COAL STRIKE IS
HOPE Of MINERS
Fuel Famine In Four Weeks
With Nonunion Men Out,
Predicts Official.
By EDWIN CARTY RANCK,
international News service.

NEW YORK. April 1o.-The con-
tinued waikout Of non-union miners
and the presence in Indianapolis of
Attorney General Dausherty led to
the optimistic belief today among
OF the United Mine
Workers of America that develop
ments are taking place behind the
scenes which may force the opera
tors 70 meet the striking coal
miners In a joint peace conferences.
President John l.. Lewis, OF the
United Mine Workers OF America,
is In Indianapolis, having left New
York on Saturday.
Phillip Murray, vice president OF
the United Mine Workers, declared
here that he knew, of no plans for
a conference between Attorney Cen
eral Daugherty and Lewis. but ad-
mitted that Developments may have
taken place since Saturday morning.
The operators had depended upon
the production of non-union fields
TO prevent a coal famine and to
help them break the strike. The
non-union fields have a weekly pro
duction of s.b00.000 tons. Their
plans were upset by the unexpected
symapthy. of the strike shown by
the non-organized workers.
Vice President Murray said that
the continuous decrease In opera
tions in non.union fields viii
threaten a coal famine in this
country within four weeks.

PUBLIC BEING MISLED,
SAYS MINE UNION CHIEF

Coal operators are misleading the
public when they declare that strik-
ing miners violated their contracts
and caused the strike, John HessIer,
union leader in the Indiana fields,
testified before the House Labor
Committee today.
Hessler denied the accuracy OF tes-
tinony of Phil II. Penna, who ap-
peared before the committee for the
Indiana operators, that the miners
had made their contracts "yalueless"
and had struck upward of 700 times
in the last year in Indiana, contrary
to contractural agreement.
There are glaring Irregularities
in Penna's statement" Hessler de-
clared. THE Indiana miners are
hostile to any strike contrary to
contracts. Operators violated the
Terre Haute agreement and any
statements to the contrary are mis-
leading"

Enforcement Steps Urged.
The leaks are being stopped. The
concentration of whiskey in a few
places will make IL easier to guard
against fake robberies. More strin-

purposes. The substitution of
