STRIKE SEEN BY LEWIS

something unforeseen intervened, the
miners would consider themselves
out of employment on September I.
1t seemed generally agreed by rep
resentatives of both sides that only
government Intervention could avert
tie-up of the mines.
Today's break came when the oper-
ators definitely refused to grant the
wage increase demanded by ttS
miners. Notice of the break was inn
mediately sent to the United States
Coal Commission al Washington. The
commission had induced the parties
to renew wage negotiations after a
series of conferences In New York

FRENCH RUHR NOTE

MAY SAVE ENTENTE

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associs ted Press. .-.-.
PARIS, August 21.-The French
governments reply to the recent note
of Marquis Curzon. the British for
eign secretary. on the reparations
situation, was handed to the British
embassy at O'Clock today.
The feeling in French official cir
cles is that this note, dictated by
Premier Poincare. will prevent a rup-
ture of the entente. Considerable con-
fidence is expressed that the British
cabinet will find it conciliatory and
see in 1t a basis for continued dis
cussion of the Ruhr occupation and
the reparation problem generally.
There is no concealment of the fact
that the reply is largely conversa-
tional, that Premier Poincare is un-
yielding on the outstanding features
of the situation and that 1t is not
expected Prime Minister Baldwin will
find the reply conclusive.
1t is considered almost certain. how
ever, that he will regard 1t as zen
couraging, and will withhold any
plans for separate action toward
Germany until the points in dispute
are further elucidated.
The French reply takes up fifty
pages Of a yellow book. which will
be issued tomorrow, together with a
summary in both English and French.

LONDON. August 21.-If there is
any interest in the expected receipt in
London of Premier Poincare's latest
addition to a long series of notes on
reparation and the Ruhr, it exists out

few months as prime minister. He
remains in retirement in the country.
However he will Come to London tomor-
row. Wednesday,. to read the French
note, expected: to reach London tonight.
Whether Premier Poincare's message
is couched in friendly or most abusive
terms arouses little or no excitement.
His exposition of views is considered
merely the fag end of fruitless debate.
Want Definite Proposals.
The few diplomats who are remain
ing in London during the holiday sea-
son declare that Poincare intends for
his note to create an atmosphere of
good will. but unless he makes some
startling concessions he will fall short
of his objective. The British govern
ment wants to see in his note a de-
