BY MARK SULLIVAN.

Washington. Sept. 3.-In Washing
ton the closest students Of the coal
situation during the last week were at
no time cheered by those develop.
ments which pointed toward merely
averting an immediate coal scarcity.
That course left the fundamental
problem undiminished in its serious
ness and made no progress toward
permanent solution.
Those most familiar with the coal
situation say there is one solution
through which the miners could get
higher returns for their work, the
public could get cheaper coal, and
the owners get undiminished profits.
That solution would be a control over
the whole industry. either by volun-
tary understanding between opera
otrs and miners. or through federal
supervision, through control the
miners without being paid materially
higher wages per day would get a
larger income per year. The loss
through periodic stoppages Is de-
scribed as one OF the greatest indus
trial wastages in America. This and
many other economies could be ppre-
vented by a closer consolidation of the
industry and a greater coordination
with seasonal needs and marketing.
Arbitration One Way.
To establish this Kind OF consoli-
dation of the industry. either through
government supervision or through
voluntary cooperation on the part
OF all the elements in the industry,
would be one cure. The other Is OF
establish the principle that arbltra-
tion is the one peaceful means which
civilization has discovered for the
cure and prevention OF disputes; and
to insist through government action
that whenever a dispute arises, both
sides shall submit It to arbitration

Fate of Americans
in Japan Will Be
Given by Consuls
State Department Orders OF
ficials at Nearby Asiatic
Points to Proceed to
Quake Zone.
BY Universal Service.


Washington. Sept. 3.-The State
department today issued orders to
consular officials at nearby Asiatic
points to proceed at once TO Japan
10 ascertain the fate OF Americans
in the devastated regions there.
This action was taken because OF
the continued failure OF the depart
ment TO re-establish communications
with the American embassy at Toxic
or with consulates elsewhere in
Japan.
Department officials admit that
the failure of all efforts to get into
communication with any Of It's dip
lomatic representatives in Japan is
ominous.
Word Momentarily Expected
The f1rst duty OF all American Of
ficials surviving the disaster would
be to get in touch with the United
States government in any available
manner. II was stated. In situations
where all lines OF communication are
destroyed IL would be the duty OF
living survivors TO make their way
to the nearest point outside Of the
region affected and report IRON
there.
1t IL assumed that this Is being
done. and word from some Japanese
point is expected by the department
momentarily.
Japanese Ambassador Masano Han
Ihara called at the state department
this afternoon and conferred al some
length with Acting Secretary Phil
lips on the situation. No direct re
ports had been received by the am
hassador from the stricken district
but all advices from outside points

and agree In advance to abide by the
result.
One other principle. more insecure,
but nevertheless weighty. was at
tempted in turning the matter over
to the state government of Pennsyl-
vania The principle, called broadly,
is that the governments of the various
states OF the union must take op
more responsibilities and that the
tendency to dump everything on the
federal government at Washington
must be slowed down.
Pennsylvania Own Problem.
Stated more narrowly, and as ap-
plying to the present case, IL is a
fact that the power to deal with the
coal situation rests more largely in
the government of Pennsylvania than
in the federal government at Wash
ington. 1t is only by stretching the
constitution that the government at
Washington can take effective charge
OF the anthracite mining industry.
But industry is all within "A state. 1t
Is not in interstate commerce and
can only be construed as such through
over.emphasizing the relation of coal
mining to transportation.
The only direct authority OF the
federal government lies in the coal
commission which was established by
congress. That commission went the
limit OF the powers granted to 1t by
congress and It was only thereafter
that the question was turned over to
