COAL
NOT TO ADVANCE
AGREEMENT REACHED AT
WASHINGTON CONFERENCE.
SECRETARY HOOVER MAKES
ANNOUNCEMENT AS TO STOCK
NOW ABOVE GROUND. :,

Washington, June 15.-.AgTee-
ment with representatives of the
National Coal association. and the
National Retail Coal Merchants
association upon a plan for pre-
venting advance of bituminous coal
prices during the strike was an
nounced tonight by Secretary
Hoover at a conference at the COM
mission commerce department. An
thracite coal operators, Mr.. Hoover
stated, have agreed not 10 advance
prices of stock now held above
ground above the levels Of the past
week, which he added, were lower
than at the bginning Of the strike.
Bituminous operators in fields
where a price basis has not yet been
established, Mr.. Hoover said, will
be Earnestly requesteR' to reduce
selling expenses for spot coal to the
Garfield price including the stand
ard selling expense, plus "sueh ad-
ditions for increased costs as were
justified in each individual case."
'The completely Of local condi-
tions," he said, sdue to the strike
and the entrance Of many SNOW
bird mines make the estimate OF
maximum prices very difficult in
many districts. This plan, If adhered
to, should result IN q reduction Of
prices in several districts of Penn
sylvania and west Kentucky. / have
some assurances that this basis will
be accepted for Pennsylvania, and
/ hope west Kentucky will also fall
into line" ".'. ....
Persistent misstatement or mis-
understanding Of elements inside
and outside the coal industry, Mr..
Hoover asserted, has given rise to
the impression in some quarters
that the maximum Of $3.50 ton
for spot coal, established with oper-
ators Of 80 per cent Of the produc-
ng fields, constituted minimum
prices and offered opportunity for
occasional advantage being taken.

GROUND COVERED
IN CONSTITUTION
IRISH FREE STATE INSTRUMENT
UP TO DATE.-PLACES RELA-
TIONS BETWEEN GREAT BRIT
IAN AND IRELAND ON DOMIN.
ION BASIS.

London, June 15.-The draft of
the new Irish constitution made pub
lie tonight on the eve Of the Irish
elections gives, as the document itself
states, force of law to the Anglo
Irish treaty and expressly declares
that any provisions of the constitu-
ton or any amendment thereto or any
law enacted under the constitution,
which is in any respect repugnant to
the treaty, shall be void and inopera-
tive.
The constitution thus embodies
connection with the British crown as
already established in the treaty, and
generally places the relations be-
tween Ireland and the empire on the
same basis as Canada and the other
dominions.
The constitution requires every
member Of the Free State parliament
to subscribe faith and allegiance to
the constitution and swear to be
faithful to the king in virtue Of the
common citizenship Of Ireland and
Great Britain and Ireland's member
ship in the British commonwealth of
nations. The document contains 20
articles and is considered an up to
date instrument, not only granting
female suffrage, proportional repre-
sentatien and referendum to the
,eople, but also empowering the peo-
pie themselves to initiate legislation.
It gives to the chamber great power
with respect to money bills, without
control from the senate, thus dupii-
eating the position as between the
British house of commons and the
house of lords.
1t exempts the Free State from ac-
tive participation in war without the
consent of parliament, except in the
case of actual invasion, and gives the
Irish supreme court the fullest
powers, only stipulating for the right
of citizens to appeal to the king in
council against the supreme courts
