NEGOTIATIONS ON COAL

WASHINGTON ID. Ill. Aug. p -Suf-
fiCicnt stocks of hard coal arc IN stor-
age t0 supply the normal requirements
for more than four months. according
to 4 survey made hy the government
department since the controversy be-
tween enc anthracite miners and the
operators reached stage where dis
continuance Of production seemed the
only possible outcome.
ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. 22-Ne-
gotiations for a new wage contract
IN the anthracite industry ended alb
ruptly yesterday. leaving unrelieved
the prospect of a suspension of hard
coal mining September 1.
Miners union officials. who walk
cd out Of the joint meetings. said
the efforts toward a peaceable ad-
iustment Of the conflict on the part
Of the industry itself had terminal
ed because the operators were un-
willing to concede any part of the
demand for increased wages made
by the men. The operators assert
that the breaking poin. was the un-
willingness Of the union to submit
its demands to the tests Of arbitra-
ton.
Both sides, however, assented 10
the submission Of report on the
situation to the United States coal
commission through James A. Cor
man, secretary Of the Joint confer
ence.
Neither group looked for any pre-
vention Of a protractcd industrial
struggle in the anthracite region
after September BY any other
means than government interven-
ton, though S. ID. Warmer, chair
man Of the operators policy COM
mittce, declared he never lost
hope for peace.
