COOLIDGE FEARS
COAL MINE
STRIKE
President Also Has Problem
in Review of Ku KIux Khan
Parade Here
BY GEORGE E. DURNO
international Nerve Service.

SWAMPSCOTT, Mass, July 2
Two problems hover over the
hitherto serene horizon of Pres;-
dent Coolidge's vacation today,
with distinct threat that the
next thirty days may bring devel-
opments of q more or less EN-
barrassing nature to the Admins
tration.
The first has to do with the
possibility of q general strike in
the coal fields; the second bears
upon, the old question of religious
liberty, aggravated Of late by the
revival and growth of the Ku
Kiux Khan.
Strike Looms Grave.
OF greater concern to the Presi-
dent. although not so imminent as
the other. is the attending renewal
OF the biennial fight between coal
operators and miners.
The charge Of John l.. Lewis,
president OF the United Mine
Workers OF America. that industrial
leaders, including John D. Rookie
Teller, jr., and Secretary OF the
Treasury Mellon, are conspiring to
violate the Jacksonville wage agree
ment, and his intimation that a
general strike might be called to
force its observance, is causing Mr..
Coolidge some concern.
A tie-up iii the coal mines would
confront the President with the first
real industrial crisis Of his Admins
tration.
Khan Problem Imminent.
The khan problem is more immi-
nent. Although no invitation &C.
tually has reached the summer
white house here. 1t has been an.
nounced that Mr.. Coolidge would
be asked to address the Khan con-
vention in Washington early in
August and also review their
parade.
1t has been stated through the
press by officials of the khan that
the executive could not we'll refuse
them, because he spoke before the
Holy Name Society last year.
While it already has been indi-
Gated here that should the invita-
ton be received 1t would be de-
clined on the ground that Mr..
Coolidge would not be in Washing
ton at that time. opponents of the
klan-Catholic, Jew and negro-are
literally flooding White Court with
demands that the President not
only publicly refuse to accept, but
that he take steps to prevent the
khan from assembling and parading
in the National Capital.
Scores of letter and petitions have
been received on this subject.
Thus far, however, President
Coolidge has taken no direct action
which would indicate he was un-
duly concerned with either problem
But he Is studying the situation
closely.
