OF MINERS, CLAIMS
BY JOHN l.. LEWIS
International President

There is no occasion for seri-
Gus fear of labor trouble in the

an agreement as to wages and
conditions of employment that
will be fair and just to all par
ties, including the public, and
which will give to the mine
workers that degree of justice
and fair treatment to which
they are entitled.
The miners will do their part
toward effecting such an agree
ment. l trust the operators Will
take the same broad view of the
matter.
But the miners will take no
backward step.

TURKS WILL SEEK NEW C0NF FERENCE 0N EAST DISPUTE
Treaty of Lausanne Rejected by Assembly, Allies Open Negotions Among
 Themselves
tcontinued from Page One,

Angora had instructed the govern ment to undertake fresh peace nego- tiations with the allies for the pur- pose of having the Lausanne treaty conform with the national pact has struck note of discouragement among the British diplomatists in London who fear that negotiations based upon what they term the inor- dinate demands of the national pact would prove futile. These officials now anticipate further tedious con- ferences.
 While Great Britain is taking every measure of prudence toward military and naval defense in the zone of the straits in the event of failure to reach a final agreement, 1t is believed that military coercion will not be neces- sary. Officials here consider that the Angora governments rejection of the treaty is intended more than any thing as a gesture of Turkeys in- transigeance for home consumption.
 While Lord Curzon, the foreign sec- retary, has repeatedly declared that the Lausanne document represents
  terms, it is believed in quarters fa- milar with the exigencies of Near East situation and with Great Brit aims pressing economic need of retir- ing from Constantinople, that the allies are prepared to accept req sonable compromise on disputed points.
 The majority of the British people, staggering under the great burden of taxation engendered by the war, are generally conceded to be unal- terably opposed to further costly op- erations in the near east. Moreover the government realizes the Kemal- ists have 250.000 we'll equipped and disciplined troops ready for instant action. which the combined forces of Great Britain, France and italy in the area of straits total less than 25.000.
