HOOVER CALLS MEETING
TO CHECK COST Of FUEL
Summons Owners to Capital, White
House and Justice Department
May Take Hand

MISUNDERSTANDING Hoover an
nounced Wednesday the calling Of a
conference of coal operators to devise
measures for the protection Of con-
sumers from the tendency of coal
prices to rise at the mine in certain
districts, which he declared would be
checked. No date has vet been defin-
itely set for the conference hut it is
expected to be held within the next few
days.
Mr.. Hoover requested the American
Railway association and the public
utilities association to create buying
committees to handle their purchases
of coal and announced his intention of
asking other large consuming indus
tries to take similar measures in order
to stop building against each other
and against the general consumer.
"At the present time" he said. 1.-THE
price Of coal has risen unduly in GER
tain districts while in other districts
there is An insufficiency of orders to
employ the mines full time. There are
very large stocks of coal in the country
In the possession Of consumers and the
problem is one Of coordination and CO.
operation"
From the White House also there
came word Of the governments inten-
ton to take hand in the situation
arising from the advance in the price
Of coal at the mine in some districts.
Attorney General Daugherty like
wise indicated that department of JUS
tice reports showed advances Of 80 per
cent in coal prices at the mines in some
districts.

Waikout Of Miners; One Killed
In Utah Fight

Washington.-Reports on bitumin.
Gus coal production indicate current
output of 4.5OO,OO0 tons week the
geological survey reported Monday,
adding that this was a total greater
than at any time since the miners
walked out on April 1. In all the
uniOniZed districts in the country an.
thracite production during the week
ending May Is remained practically
nil the report said. The surveys re.
port indicated that lack of marked de-
mand continued the principal factor in
holding down production. Estimating
that consumption of bituminous coal
now was around eight million tons a
week, the survey said three and half
million tons were being taken week
from the surplus socks put in storage
by consumers in anticipation of the
strike. For the week ending May 6,
complete coal production figures show
an output Of 4.161 600 tons of bi,umin.
Gus. and 5000 tons Of anthracite.
Approximately 100000 tons of coal
are held in railroad cars around the
mines. awaiting buyers, the survey
found.
The greatest increase in operations
during the last week was noted in Ken.

H|GA COURT DECLARES
CHILD LABOR LAW v0|D
Chief Justice Taft's Decision Says Act
Attempts to Regulate an Ex-
elusive State Function

Washington.-The child labor law
has been declared unconstitutional by
the supreme court.
The law. enacted in 1919, was intend
ed to regulate the employment of chill
dren in any mill, cannery. workshop,
factory or manufacturing establish
ment under the age Of IA or in any
mine under 16 years, by imposing an
excise tax Of 10 per cent upon the an
nual profits of those employing such
labor. 1t was attacked on the ground
that it attempted to regulate and ex-
elusive state function, in violation Of
the federal constitution and the tenth
amendment and was defended as a
mere excise tax levy by congress under
its broad power Of taxation conferred
by the federal constitution.
The law was attacked in the SUI
preme court by three cases from North
Carolina, appealed by the government.
Two Of these, the Atherton Mill and
that by John ]. George and others,
were dismissed on technicalities, but
the case brought by the Dre3el Furni.
ture company was found in proper
form and it was in that the law was
declared invalid.
The opinion was delivered by Chief
Justice Taft with no dissent announced.

new OUTBREAK N LiBOR
WAR seen IN CA|CAG0
Large Chicago Apartment House b.
stroyed by Fire Following
Bomb Explosion

Chicago.-Open defiance Of the ef.
forts Of the police to check an out
break Of labor warfare which has ter
rorized the city for the last two months
was seen Wednesday night in a spec.
tacular fire which partially destroyed
an apartment building under construc-
ton at III Sheridan Road in the heart
Of wealthy residence district.
Starting Just before dark at several
points on the first floor the flames
spread rapidly through the $4,000
structure and practically all the fire
fighting apparatus in the northern Sec
ton Of the city was called out before
1t was brought under control with half
the building in ruins.
The entire Rogers Park police force
was used to keep hack the crowds,
estimated at more than 5000 persons.
Workmen employed on the structure
were working under the Lands wage
award and the police declared that the
fire was but another step in a cam
paign Of terrorism directed against the
award which was made by former Fed
eral Judge X. NJ. Landis. sitting as
mediator in wage dispute between
the building trades workers and con-
tractors. The award was accepted BY
the contractors. but has been actively
opposed by several Of the unions which
were dissatisfied with it's terms.
The fire recalled threatening letters
received last week by assistant states
attorneys warning them that II the
'hig three" labor leaders. Fred Nader,
"Big Tim" Murphy and Cornelius
"Con" Shea were not released, fires
would he started in buildings being
erected throughout the city. The let
ters set the time limit for the release
of the three at last Saturday.
Investigation Of the fire showed that
1t had been started in several places
and had been preceded by the ex.
plosion Of a bomb.
Two new arrests were made during
the day following reports that a con-
fession duplicating several persons had
been made by John Miller. owner Of
the death car from which the police
men were shot.
Miller, according to States Attorney
Grove, has revealed to the police the
entire procedure of labor terrorism,
telling Of orders for bombings and slug
gings carried out by strong-arm mer-
cenaries who received their orders
from three of the leaders now under
arrest.
The same mercenaries. 1t was said,
had been used to intimidate both union
men and contractors, their leaders col.
Letting tribute from both sides while
posing as labor leaders. It also was
charged that they had engineered rob-
berries, the proceeds to be used to
finance the reign of gun and bomb ter.
-r0rism which eliminated in the assass-
ination of the two policemen.

.AxC0M DISPUTE MEET
OPENED BY HUGHES
Chile and Peru viii Attempt settle
msnt Of 4o-Ysar Controversy
Over Treaty

WashingtOn.-1n an atmosphere Of
renewed hOpefulness the plenipoten.
tiaries Of Chile and Peru met Monday
in the Hall Of Americas to attempt %.
luton of the difficulties that have es-
tranged their governments for more
than generation.
Convened in Washington at the in
vitation of President Harding, the con-
ference was opened with an address
Of welcome by Secretary Hughes, de-
livered in the presence Of a notable
gathering of government officials and
diplomats from every part of the
world. Response was made for Chile
by Luis Izuierdo and for Peru by Mel
iton Porras and then the two delega-
tons retired for private consultation in
their new effort to apply the "Confer-
ence plan Of diplomacy to interna tional
relationship of the Western Hemis.
pheres."
Although the seriousness of. the prob.
lem is everywhere realized. there was
feeling here that the delegates would
come together under conditions notably
suspicious. Both governments ap.
preached the negotiations in a spirit
of amity regarded in diplomatic circles
as so unusual as to give much promise
of a settlement.
AT the same time, among the dele
gates themselves, and among officials
who have intimate knowledge of the
40-year controversy over the treaty Of
Ancon. there has been apparent ten
dency to warn against overconfidence.
Quick results are not expected and
there are some who believe that in the
end the outstanding issues must be left
to arbitration.
1t now is considered improbable that
the United States will in any way be
represented In the negotiations unless
arbitration becomes necessary and both
delegations agree to appeal directly to
President Harding.
