LITTLE CHANCE ID
 SETTLE COAL STRIKE
Only Proposal by Administration 
 Is Likely to Aid

Washington, July 3-Only a possi- ble proposal by the administration appeared today 10 offer any prospect for break in the deadlock faced by soft coal mine operators and officials of the miners union on meeting for their third joint session of the con- ference called here by President Harding to devise means of settling the coal strike
 Following the formal votes at their second meeting yesterday by which each side rejected the proposal of the other as to the basis for negotiation of new wage scales, and later separ- ate meetings of the two groups at which was said to have held firm to the position taken there had been no indication today of what suggestions the government might have to offer as a means of progress in the nego- tiations.
 Secretaries Hoover and Davis. who attended yesterdays session announc- ed in a joint statement that the op- orators first voted down the miners proposal for central competitive field wage conference and the latter immediately after recorded their op- position to the operators proposal for independent wage conferences in each district.
 In arguments against the central competitive field wage negotiations the operators were said to have main- tained that they resulted in the fix ing of national wage scales by Illinois, Ohio, Indiana and western Pennsyl- vania without regard to difference of living costs, mining conditions and transportation facilities in outlying competing districts The miners through John L. Lewis. president of the United Mine Workers, were said to have countered with the assertion that operators in outlying districts could not and would not settle until they knew what wage conditions their competitors might obtain
