MANY CARS TAMPERED
WITH NEAR COUNTY SEAT

NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. 27:-
Residents of the Lincoln Gardens
section of this place are wrought up
over the fact that practically every
automobile was tampered with and
put out Of commission sometime be-
tween midnight and 9 O'Clock this
morning. The vandalism was discov-
cred by the employees of the Lincoln
Gardens Garage, owned by Capt,
George Caldwell and Joseph Bonner
when they attempted to start three
buses used in the New Brunswick
Perth Amboy line on their first trip.
The employees discovered that The
wires were ripped and spark plug
connections removed, gas lines cut.
Private cars were reouisitioneo to
get the early passengers to their
various directio Is and trains.
As the excitement of some ten
Automobile owners whose cars were
stored in the garage was over a re-
port came that thirty or more cars
parked in the garage of Tony Barza,
of Jersey avenue, met with the same
fate. The in5ruders made the!" way
into the garages by forcing the doors
and windows.
Police investigating the mysterious
action are led TO believe that il was
the intent of the men engaged N
Itampering with the cars to put the
bus service this morning out of ccm-
mission.

BUSMEN ACCUSE PUBLIC SERVICE
OF FRAUD With their PETITIONS
Gov. PinChOt Insists On
Coal Strike Settlement

HARRISBURG. Aug. 81: (By The
Associated Press)-Governor Pin
chot, of Pennsylvania, assembled
leaders of each side in the anthra-
cite controversy around his office
! table today and told them bluntly
that she proposed susre ension of min
Jag September l could not be allowed
The governor said in part:
This controversy between the
miners and the operators of the an
thracite field is not private quarrel.
THE general public is u party to
this con roversy and its rights as
well as The rights of the two other
parties, must be represented and re-
cognized.
1.-The public does not and cannot
see with your eyes and appreciate
with your experience the background
and the details of the presen: con-
troversy. But it knows, the essen
tial facts. l express a truth none
will deny when 1 say that the anth-
racite suing people of the United
States are losing patience, and ask
you to consider that fact with care.
''The public interest demands that
this controversy shall be settled, and
that suspension of mining shall be
avoided. The thing is possible
and it must be done"
Settlement means that neither
side can get everything it would like
to have. Few people do in the
world we live in. But the settle
ment of this dispute is absolutely
necessary for the public safety and
welfare. The public needs and
must have coal. 1 am entirely conf
dent the public is going to have it.
1t is my duty to insure to the public
by every lawful means at my COM
mand, the necessary supply of coal
"I recognize the right of mine
workers to organize for their own
! protection and to fair and decent
aware that the strike is a right
which should not be arbitrarily
abridged or denied. The exercise of
| this right, however, should be made
unnecessary by the use of orderly
and reasonable methods of adjust
| ment.
II recognize the right of mine op-
| orators to a just return on their in
vestment and their managerial abil-
ity.
''As the representative of the peo-
| pie of this commonwealth, am here
| to tell you that these rights are to be
recognized and protected and that
the public right are to be recognize
ed and protected also.
1.-THE Roosevelt platform of 1912
asserted that the public good comes
first. Do not forget that the pub
lie cannot look with indifference
upon unnecessary industrial conflict
over private rights while it suffers In
health, comfort and the very essen
tials of life.
1--WE are at the threshold of win
ter. I call your attention again to
our duty to the public, yours as min
ers and operators, mine as executive
of the only anthracite-producing
state.
"The eleventh hour is upon US
and the crisis has now been reach
ed. We must do in this eleventh
hour what should have been done
before. 1t can be done and must be
done. There is still time. Let us
Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-08-27

use this time in an effective spirit OF
common counsel so that this COM
mon danger may pass, with due re-
gard to the rights of all, and with
due credit and honor to all concern
ed. After the close of the present
session l desire to consult with each
side separately at as great length as
the time available will permit.
IT will meet first with the miners
because they are, to use a legal
phrase, the plaintiffs in this case,
and l suggest to 5 o'clock this af-
ternoon as the time. Tomorrow
morning from 9 to IL l will meet
the operators for a similar confer
ence. Other conferences may be ar
raigned later.
'I propose to treat those confer
ences with each side as wholly con-
fidential. What is said to me by one
side will not be revealed to the other,
either now or later, unless by mutual
agreement. l ask, also, and l desire
especially to impress upon you the
necessity, that each side shall re-
frain until the end of this conference
from making public its position on
any issue here involved, thus afford
ing the largest practicable opportu-
nifty for discussion and agreement.
The urgency of the situation, togeth-
er with the shortness of time avail
able for agreement, justifies this re-
quest"
With the exception of John L.
Lewis, president of the United Mine
Workers, all participants in the At
lantic City negotiations were here
today. Phillip Murray, vice presi-
dent of the union, was here in Mr..
Lewis absence, with the three dis
trict presidents. The four members
of the operators policy committee
were present.
Four of the leaders from each
party to the controversy, men who
! have faced each other a half dozen
times in this years deadlock be-
tween employer and employe in the
{ industry, and whose experience has
been gained in previous years when
similar breaks of negotiations pre-
! cipitated shut downs again gathered
| at Governor Pinchot's summons
They were, however, open in declar-
| ing they came to his meeting prac-
tically incapable of changing the at
| titudes which have brought the con-
flict. So bitter is the difference be-
tween them, that the unions suspen-
sion orders call out even the men
who man the engines, pumps and
maintenance operations in the mines
In previous suspensions, such men
have always been allowed to continue
their work, lest the mines flood and
| cave in during idleness.
