| Illumination or condensation:
THE carriers have carefully con-
sidered the tentative suggestion you
have made today.
"The use by you in this suggestion
of the term "reinstated" goes to the
root of the differences between us.
"You have repeatedly explained to
our committee that this means an
acknowledgment on the part of the
carriers that the men returning to
work under your proposition above
quoted will be senior to the new men
employed since July 1, 1922, and
in the service TO the extent that the
returning strikers were senior on
June 80, 1922.
LAS this acknowledgment would
doubtless control the decision OF the
Labor Board on dispute submitted
under your second paragraph as TO
seniority and oblige II TO render
decision against the old men who re-
mained and the new men who enter
ed the service, we cannot accept It,"
Regrettable as the continuance OF
the strike is, the attitude of the ex-
ecutives is the only one they could
take in fairness to their given prom
ise and to the men who stuck 10
their jobs and helped to keep the
railroads running. They stand be-
fore their employees and before the

The Carriers 'AnslUer
(From the New York Herald.)

The railroad executives refusal to
settle the shopmen's strike on the
terms proposed by the brotherhoods
was to be expected. They had
pledged their word that the men who
stayed at work or took the place of
strikers should have permanent Jobs
and seniority rights. The peace plan
submitted by the brotherhoods call
ed for the violation of that pledge,
for the first paragraph of the plan
read as follows:
"All men to be reinstated in the
position of the class they originally
held on June 80, 1922, and as many
Of such men as possible are to be put

been on strike to(be put to work or

next, except such men as have been
proven guilty of destruction of rail-
road property or convicted of crime;
ordinary cases of assault and bat
terry the result of personal encounter
are to be disregarded."
The second paragraph of the plan
proposed that in the event of dis
putes over the relative standing"
Of employees the matter should be
referred TO the United States Rail-
road Labor Board.

Editorial Opinion
MEANWHILE, NO HARD COAL

Il -'iis4hAN w wv thshah1 NO~ss@
From the New York Herald.
The passage of a bill creating a
commission to find the facts about
the coal industry is assured. Wheth-
er It be Representative Winslow's
measure or Senator Borah's is a mat
ter less important than getting at
the facts.
Once armed with knowledge of all
the mines, the cost of production at
each and the condition OF wages and
living among the miners, the Gov
ernment will be in a position TO han
die the coal question as It should be
handled.
This country will never see a
steadysupply of coal at honest prices.
steady employment for the right
number of fairly paid men and
steady. reasonable profits for the
mine owners until the mines of this
country are considered as one unit
instead of several thousand units.
We shall not see the last of stik-
ing and shivering until the coal
mines are consolidated into a few re-
gional groups with standardized pro-
duction and prices; groups privately
owned but publicly controlled.
ANY investigation which does not
lead to a reconstruction of the coal
business on efficient lines will be a
mere picking at the surface of a
grave problem.
There can be no legislation that
will force men to work, but there
can and should be legislation which
will so reorganlze the coal industry
that strikes will disappear and the
public be rid of its annual fear
OF course no commission can fill
the empty anthracite bins of today.
To a great degree the country, in
the words of President Harding TO
Congress last week, lis at the mercy
of the United Mine Workers. Those
United Mine Workers, as they are
reflected in the acts of their chief,
John L. Lewis, are showing neither
mercy nor justice.
The reason that the anthracite
miners are not working again is that
Lewis has rejected every fair pro-
posal. The operators Offered a con-
tract running until next April at the
old scale. They offered to leave to
the Anthracite Board of Cancellation
the determination OF wages after
that; and the Board of Cancellation
is made up of three miners and three
operators.
Not for Lewisl He haughtily rel
fused anything less than contract
running at the high wages until
April 1, 1924. No arbitration for him
he IS the sole arbiter.
So New York, which hasn't enough !
hard coal in its cellars to. keep 1t
warm one winter day. knows where
he blame lies, just as the whole ap-
country knows.

BY HARRY B. HUNT

WASHINGTON,-A combination
of three of the largest industrial in
terests in America TO develop the
power resources of the st. Lawrence
river, has been given such impetus
by the fuel transportation crisis that
Immediate steps to harness approxi-
mately 100000 horsepower Of
new hydro-electric energy for New
York and the New England states
are believed certain.
The interests behind the proposed
development, as known in Washing
ton where negotiations for the nee
essary power permits have been un-
der way, are:
The General Electric Company.
The Aluminium Company Of
America.
The Du Points.
Applications for permits, however.
are made in the names of the Louis
vile Power Corporation and the St.

Following the completion Of the
project It is intended to merge the
two concerns under the name OF The

trio plants and transmission lines.
About eight years would be requir-
ed for the work.

These interests already control a
considerable part of the power de-
veloped at Niagara Falls. The new
plan provides for increased install
lations there to bring the total avail
able for use in the United States up
to the limit possible under present
treaties with Canada-51S, 900
horsepower. This would make about
100000 horsepower from Niagara
available for diversion to New York.
1t is estimated that the st. Law
renee project. as proposed, will de-
velop about 5000 kilowatts.
The cost of the Niagara power,
delivered at Paterson, n. j., is esti-
mated at 81 mills per kilowatt hour.
Power from the st. Lawrence
plants, delivered at Utica and Sche-
nectady. would cost at those points |
about 4.6 per kilowatt hour. From !

centers.
What this power would mean now
in relieving the situation resulting
from non-production of coal and de-
lays in transportation is indicated by
the estimate that this st. Lawrence
power. delivered in New, England,
would displace 2,234,000 tons of coal
yearly.
The 100000 kilowatts of Niagara
power in New York would mean a
saving Of 100000 tons of coal in
New York power plants.
In addition, there would be a saw
ing of several hundred thousand
tons of coal consumed by the rail-
roads in carrying this fuel to New
England and New York. and nearly
S,500,000 tons of shipping would
be freed for other commercial uses
Railroads Now Considering
liberalization of Lines
Pinch of fuel and freight condi-
tions and the coal shortage have
caused also a number of railways to
consider seriously future electrifca-
ton of their lines.
No general electriflcatioD of east
ern railways is likely, Federal Power
Commission experts believe, al
though short lines may be profitably
electrified near a few of the larger
cities.
On certain lines in the West, how
ever, early electrification now seems
certain. Among the roads seriously
taking up the problems are:
The Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul.
The Union Pacific.
The Santa Fe.
The Great Northern.
The Denver & Rio Grande.
The c., NJ. e st. P. is now oper-
