Operators Statement
A statement was issued today by
A Lisle White, Clarksburg, presI-
dent Of the Northern West Virginia
Coal Operators Association, claim
ing that the United Mine Workers
Of America had sought to mlslead
the public in certain printed ac-
counts. Mr.. Whites statement in
part Is: "The statement is made
that the operators in West Vir-
ginia have shown no intention Of
bringing about a settlement with
the miners and things are coming
to an acute stage"
In his statement Mr.. White re-
views the details Of the two con-
ferences in Baltimore and the
fact that President Keency was
without authority to sign up a
wage scale.
Miners Active
Officials of sub district 4, dis
trict II, at Fairmont say that the
tonnage produced in Northern
West Virginia is very low AMI
some of this is being turned out
by mines that never worked on
the closed shop basis. The whole
production in the northern tier OF
the state would hardly be equi+
yaient TO the total output OF one
or two large mines worked on full
time! 1t is said.
Several miners mass meetings
are scheduled to be held In the
Fairmont region today. Nick Aiel-
10. president, and James McCleary.

ers' mass meeting at Carolina this

right to pass along such a protest,
which II is claimed could be made
only by either Premier Facta as
president Of the conference by the
inviting powers without the little
entente and Portugal, which Joined
tho group at the last moment.
There is therefore strong current
among the Germans in favor OF an

PARIS, April 19.-The repara-
tons commission Is to be asked to
consider whether the Russo err
man Treaty signed at Rapallo on
Sunday. violates the Treaty Of Yer
sailles in respect to the German
owned property in Russia This
property, under the Versailles pact
Is pledged to the commission for
payment OF reparations.
The French government will
await the action OF the commission
before taking up the question OF
ficially with the Allies. 1t Is held
however, In official circles here
that there is q distinct violation
of the Versailles treaty, and It Is
declared that whatever action the
Genoa Conference may take, the
allied powers cannot tolerate the
pact.
The resources Of the ALLIES
against the pact is the same as
that against other violations OF the
peaGA treaty, and the present case
Is regarded only as adding one
moro to the. other causes OF action
on the German question which the
allies will take up Immediately
after tho Genoa Conference.
Premier Poincare is reported tC
have taken the initiative in an In.
vitation TO the allied governments
to consult with view to making
a joint protest to Germany against

wild, striking the wall behind Engel
but the third hit the manufactures
below the heart and went through his
body TO the right side.
The noise of the shots, accertuated
by the narrow hallway, caused a panic
among the 200 women employed in the
shops on this floor, and in the excite
ment Karp escaped. Detectives sent
