POINTS OUT DANGER
OF NEW COAL STRIKE
Delegates to American Mining Con-
gress Hear of Danger Coming
Next Spring.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire)

Milwaukee, Wis The American
public, faced with the termination of
the United Mine Workers contracts
in the bituminous fields next April /,
must bear a hand now and make sure
the representatives of the public in
official position do not "befog or run
away from the issue, but meet it
squarely and vigorously" was the adj
vice presented in an address by J. G.
Brydon, president of the National
Coal association, before the general
sessions of the twenty sixth annual
convention of the American Mining
Congress here today. From the stand
point of the public, Mr.. Brydon de-
clared there is but one clear prin-
cipal which must sooner or later be
recognized if the artificial power of
combination in labor relations is TO
continue to be permitted. This, he
said, carries recognition that his
power assumes certain limitations,
viz, it ''shall not beat the public over
the head with the bludgeon of nation
wide strike; it must in the event
of failure to agree by negotiation
be willing to submit differences

arbitration.
According to Mr.. Brydon, there
must be arraigne9 system of con-
tractual relationship in which respon-
Fsibility for observance of contracts
will be enforced and recurring crisis
in the industrial life of the nation
| eliminated.
Mr.. Brydon cited half dozen
problems of the bitmuinous coal in
dustry and in each case traced the
troubles connected Herewith directly
to labor These problems he listed
as: increase in coal prices, car short
ages, efficiency in mining, over
development of mines and over supply
Of miners, and irregularity Of opera
ton.
