STRIKE CALLED

Union Mine Workers In Hard Aud
Soft Coal Mines Ordered
Out April 1st.
SAFEGUARD PROPERTY
All Union Mine Workers in Hard
and Soft Coal Mines to Stop Work
the Last of Month-60O,OO
Men Affected,

indianapolis. Ind-Suspension of
work by all union coal miners at mid
night. March 81 was ordered by Off
GERS of the United Mine Workers of
America. the call being the first ever
issued for both bituminous and anthra-
cite workers to walk out simultane-
ously. Six hundred thousand men will
be directly affected by the order, it
was estimated officially.
The suspension, the order provided.
will continue until stopped by union
officials.
The order. which was sent to the
1900 local unions. directed the miners
to give the operators their fullest CO.
operation in the protection of mine
property and counseled against vio-
lence and violations of the law. In
addition to affecting all union miners
in the United States. the order also
directed approximately $3.50 union
men in western Canada to join in the
walkout. but did not apply to $4,000
miners in Nova Scotia.
Vote Heavy for Strike.
Never before in the history of the
country has Il suspension or strike
order called for cessation of work by
all union miners in the United States.
In the past, wage contracts in the
bituminOus and anthracite fields have
not expired at the same time but Il
complete tieup in union fields was
considered during the great anthracite
strike in 1902 A sympathetic strike
by the bituminous miners at that time
was rejected by the unions convention,
it being argued that the soft coal
workers were bound by a contract.
The issuance of the coal with the
recent strike vote of soft coal miners
not completely tabulated, but it was
said officially that the work Of the
unions board of tellers had progressed
to such a point as to show every field
voting overwhelming in favor of Il
suspension. Indications were that
nine-tenths of the miners favored the
walkOut.

New Republic Emblem Blessed at
Marlborough Hall at St. Pat
rick's Day Celebration.
union JACK IS MISSING
De Valera in Speech Says Day Was
Saddest For Five Years; Declares
That Fight for Freedom Of
ireland Will Continue.

Dublin-The celebration of St. Pat
rick's day throughout southwest Ire
land were marked by several features
denoting the change in the status of
Ireland. The trooping of the Union
Jack at Dublin castle, which since
1900 had been an impressive cere-
mony of the name day of Ireland,s
patron saint, for the first time was
omitted.
Instead there was trooping and
the blessing of the republican tri.
color at Marlborough hall, which was
transferred some time ago by the
Crown forces to the Irish Republican
army.
There We're present at the cere-
mony many members of the Irish gen
eral headquarters staff, including
Richard Mulahy, minister of defense
and Owen O'Duffy, chief of staff. of
the Irish Republican army. The
greatest of enthusiasm prevailed.
The singing of the Soldiers Song'
during the ceremony was feature.
The chief meetings in the country
were at Waterford where Eamon De
Valera spoke, and at Skibbereen,
where Michael Collins was the chief
attraction. Mr.. Collins was accorded
an enthusiastic reception, the crowd
being swelled by contingents coming
on special trains from Bantry, Dun.
manway and Bandon.
The speech of Mr.. Collins was de.
voted to a comparison of today with
last st. Patricks day, when he said
the enemy was hammering us his
hardest and the hangman was so busy
that few of US expected to see an
other St. Patrick's day." What the
people certainly had not expected to
see, Mr.. Collins added, was "our
friends, the auxiliaries, black and tans
and British soldiers, sailing away, and
civilian or semi-civilian occupants of
Dublin CASTLE"
Mr.. De Valera in his Waterford
speech declared it was "the saddest
ST. Patrick's day for five years." AT.
ter the Waterford meeting he went
to Carrick-on-Suir, where a detach-
ment of the Tipperary brigade of the
Irish Republican army acted as a
guard of honor He was accorded a
warm reception.
"If the treaty is accepted" Mr.. De
Valera declared, "the fight for free.
dom will continue, and the Irish peo-
pie, instead of fighting foreign SOL
diers will have to fight Irish soldiers
of an Irish government set up by
Irishmen."

BONUS DELAY SEEN
Amendment in Senate for Bond
Issue or Sale Tax Predicted.
Majority Committee Estimates Bonus
Would Cost $4,osa,71e,35o For
Its Various Options.

Washington-Although the house IS
to pass the soldiers bonus bill soon,
the bonus is by no means assured.
This became evident when on the
heels of the opposition from the presi.
dent and Secretary of the Treasury
A. w. Mellon to the house measure,
there came evidence that the senate
probably would not accept the bill as
it comes from the house.
The soldiers bonus will cost a total
of $4,03S,719,35O for it's various op.
tions, according to estimates made in
the ways and means committee major.
ity report to the house.
Fifty signers Necessary.
Fifty signatures would be necessary
for the calling of the conference. The
action taken by the conference would
not be binding on the members when
the measure came up for considera.
tion on the floor.
Several former service men, mem.
bers of the house, have signed the pc.
tition and in addition other members
who have been counselling delay in
taking up the bonus bill have attached
their signatures.
A petition for conference of repub
lican house members for next Monday
night, to consider the compromise sol
diers' bonus bill, was put in circula,
ton by Representative Lineberger ol
California, former service man, and
received number of signatures with
in a short time
Long delay in the senate finance
committee is declared to be certain
ty and postponement of all bonus leg
islation a possibility as result of the
senate attitude. One administration
leader asserts that if final action is
not postponed, the senate finance com
mittee will insist on amending the
bill to provide either for a bond issue
to finance the bill or a sales tax
which was advocated by President
! Harding.
Senate to Hold Up Bonus Bill.
When the bonus bill reaches the
senate it will find the finance commit
tee still struggling with the long de
layed tariff bill. How much Longer
the committee will struggle with the
tariff no one predicts.
| Every calculation that has beer
made by administration leaders as tt
when the bill would be reported t.
the senate has been miscalculatiol
and Of late some pessimistically in
clined senators have been saying tina
even tariff revision may not come un
til after the congressional election.

A two-thirds majority will be neces.
