GOVERNMENT PLANS TO.
FORCE MINING OF COAL.
crisis Reached in Coal Strike
When Farley Plans Fail
Mines Must Be Operated

Washington. d. C.-President Hard
ng and his cabinet met as a council
# war, determined to force the pro-
luction of coal in the face of the
trike of 100000 miners and the re-
usal OF their leaders and operator
hieftains to submit to arbitration.
BituminOus coal mine operators
we're invited" by President Harding
t the White House Ito return to
our mine properties and resume
operations" after they had replied to
he Presidents tender of arbitration
or settling the national coal strike
With a collective offer TO put their
properties and their. services at the
lisposal of the government lin this
risis."
Speaking as chairman of the group
If operators after the White House
conference. Alfred NJ. Ogle said the
Employers would make the attempt
o resume operations.
Meanwhile, the miners union,
through an adjournment sine die Of
is controlling policy committee,
made certain its refusal to accept
ne arbitration proposal, and many
If its officials Immediately left
Washington.
The bituminous operators were
likewise not a unit in accepting the
government arbitration proposals, but
he President said that "a large ma
ority" of them, by unqualified ac-
;eptance had given him occasion to
express my own and the public's
;ratitude."
Keeping in mind the massacre of
nine guards and non-union miners
It Herrin, Ill, and the fatal battle
between deputies and mine strikers
n West Virginia. the President and
lis cabinet discussed the ADVISABLE.
y of placing Federal troops on guard
1t all mines accepting the invita-
ion to reopen.
The situation is now regarded more
serious than at any time since the
,Oal strike began April
The fear is openly expressed here
hat the Nation faces one of the
greatest industrial wars in its his
ory
The President is planning on CO.
operation between the state and fed
sral military forces to bring about
;oal production County and state
authorities will be asked to give ade-
Iuate protection to mines that at.
empt to reopen with strike breakers
Z state forces cannot maintain order
lt the mines, federal troops will be
lsed
Harding takes the view that the
)vershadowing need OF the country
low is the production Of coal and
hat it must be brought about re-
yardless of how it Will affect either
he operators or the striking miners
Many operators will attempt to
open their mines, as the result Of the
Presidents action, A. NJ Ogle. presi

In an emphatic manner John L

Workers. asserted that virtually none

UNIONS TO CALL
OUT ENGINEERS
Pumpmen and Others to Quit
II Attempt Is Made to Use
Strike Breakers, Is Claim
OFFICIALS ARE INFORMED
Presidents Stand Sends Government
Into Strength Test with Workers
Body-Strike Of Maintenance
Men Would Cause Huge Loss

Washington. d. C.-President Hard
ing's plan to force increased coal pro.
duction despite the strike of 6OO, 900
miners, by attempting to operate un-
ion mines with strike breakers work
ing under troop protection, received a
sharp setback
Officials of the United Mine Work
ers served notice on Government of
ficials handling the coal tieup that
any attempt to send strike breakers
to the closed shop mines will result
in strike of the 10000 union engin.
GERS, pump men and other men now
working to prevent the mines from
filling with water md otherwise de-
teriorating
nationwide strike Of the main.
tenance men would work havoc with
the mines and cause huge loss to the
operators unless their places could
be filled promptly
In all miners strikes. the United
Mine Workers have made a policy to
keep the maintenance men on the Job,
but a high official Of the organiza-
tion stated that the union men would
not be allowed to work alongside of
strikebreakers.
The Government embarked on a mo-
mentous test of strength with the
100000 striking coal miners
In directing the governors Of the
rs coal producing states to protect
the mines of all operators willing to
resume coal production. President
Harding has thrown down the gage OF
battle to the United Mine Workers Of
America, probably the most powerful
single body of organized workers in
the country
Should the Presidents present
plan fail to bring about a large in
crease in coal production within
short time, there will be but one
course open to the Government
seizure and operation of the mines.
In his call upon the % governors,
Harding has in effect ordered the
mobilization or more than 1000 900
armed men on the side Of the public,
it was estimated. First of all, the
governors can call on the local au-
thorities. such as the police and dep
uty sheriffs, to provide protection.
If these forces prove insufficient,
the National guard forces are to be
modified. II the guardsmen prove in
effective, Federal troops will be sent
to their assistance. Should the
trouble be too widespread for control
by these forces, the Government will
induct the National guards of nom
coal producing states into the FEEDER
al service and detail them to duty in
the coal producing states.
The President in his kilograms to
the Governors virtually made an ap
peal to patriotic working men to act
as strikebreakers, assuring them the
full support of the Federal govern
ment. The need for coal makes such
action imperative and Harding is con
fident men will respond

Begin Probe to Place Blame
CONFERENCES ARE PLANNED
Hope to Settle Rail Walkout Through
Meetings With Men and En-
ployers-to Relieve the
Fuel Shortage.

Washington, d. C.-Moves to end
the nationwide coal and rail strikes
are under way in Congress.
A congressional investigation to de-
termine the cause and fix the blame
for the coal strike with the ultimate
purpose Of enacting legislation to pre-
vent further wars in this industry
will be initiated shortly by Senator
Borah.
Senator Cummins and other mem
bers OF the Interstate Commerce
Commission will attempt to bring
about settlement of the rail strike,
through conferences with the execu-
tives and the employees. The first of
these conferences was held here when
Senator'S Cummins, kellogg and Wat
son, Indiana, met leading railroad ex.
ecutives
Meanwhile, the cabinet is planning
measures to relieve the fuel shortage.
Priority orders on coal shipments
has been decided upon. A decision
will be reached soon as to whether
the shipping boards idle vessels are
TO be used to import coal
Senator Borah is expected to intro
duce a measure in the Senate calling
for the creation of an industrial com.
mission to regulate the coal industry.
Neither operators nor miners favor
a federal board. Senator Borah's
demand for such board may hasten
a conference between the two fac.
tions to settle the strike.
Mr.. Borah also desires an investiga-
tion to show the public who is to
blame for the serious coal shortage
confronting the country.
