COOLIDGE PLANS
NO STRIKE ACTION
President Realizes Extent of
Power, But Will Ask Author
ity to Name Commission.
BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG.

President Coolidge has not the
slightest intention of intervening in
the anthracite coal strike nor is he
contempla ting asking Congress when
il next meets to grant the Executive
powers that would permit him To take
drastic action during emergencies that
might arise from a prolonged coal
strike or other strikes.
Mr.. Coolidge. however. will devote
portion of the annual message
he will submit TO Congress next
month to the discussion of coal and
viii recommend that. the Executive
he given authority to appoint spe-
cial commission empowered to deal
with whatever emergency situation
may arise, TO aid conCiliation and
voluntary arbitration, to adjust any
existing or threatened controversy
between employer and the employe
when collective bargaining fails, and
by controlling distribution to prevent
profiteering in coal.
This IS all the President proposes
doing regarding the present coal
strike. And this is all the President
will ask in the matter of coal-strike
legislation.
The Presidents position and inten-
tions were learned today from most
reliable source. There have been ru-
mors recently to the effect that Presi-
dent Coolidge has become so greatly
moved by the pinch being felt in GER
tain Northern and Eastern sections of
the country because of inadequate fuel.
as a result of the strike, that he was
contempls ting stepping in, with the
hope of bringing the operators and
miners together and once more TO
have the anthra cite mines working.

RELIEF FELT HERE
Evening star., 1925-11-05
Has Made Thorough Study

The president mas positively no ShCn
idea. the writer is reliably informed.
He is familiar with the situation. Also
he has made a thorough study of the
dispute between the operators and the
miners, and he is fully aware of the
Federal Governments authority and
the powers, or lack of powers, invest
ed in the Executive to deal draStically
with such a domestic problem as this
coal strike.
No one appreciates the fact any
better than the President himself that
he is powerless and empty handed in
the matter of forcing a settlement be-
tween the disputants. He realizes
this. and he realizes that it would be
folly for him to attempt something
with only a bluff to back him up. 1t
is not the Coolidge manner to do some
thing big merely upon the strength
of loud and spectacular bluster- He
would not try these tactics. even know
ing that he has the public solidly be
hind him.
Acted Last Summer.
1t is pointed out that there is no
further reason why the President
should renew his entreaties to the
operators and miners to get about the
table again and make another effort
to compose their differences. He made
these entreaties last Summer when
the time for the calling of the strike
was drawing near and during the
long -drawn.out negotiations between
representatives of the warning bodies
at Atlantic City last Summer. The
President then reminded the dis
putants frequently of their RESPONSE
bilty to the public and urged them to
consider the public before they agreed
to disagree.
Since then the Presidents position
has been one of silent waiting. He
has been hoping that the two parties
i'm dispute would voluntarily. renew
their negotiations and reach an
amicable agreement. lie has been
stitutes since the closing of the
anthracite mines and has been watch
ing the matter of distribution.
Aside from the questions involved
in the dispute between the anthra-
cite operators and miners, the Presi-
dent has no hesitancy in saying that
he considers the cost of all coal as
being too high. In fact the President
has referred to the costs as being "un-
bearably high" In his opinion the
prices place a great burden on the
domestic and industrial life of the
Nation and the public welfare requires
a reduction in the price of fuel. Also
the President is insistent that the sup
ply of coal should be constant; that
there should be nothing to impair its
distribution. With the enormous de-
posits of coal in existence, failure OF
supply ought not to be tolerated in
the opinion of the President.
The President included a section OF
his first message to Congress after
becoming President in 1923 in which

ACCIDENT AWARDS NOT
EASY MONEY

A honest men who hold to the
ideal Of fair play will applaude the
firm decision of the State Industrial
Accident Commission to limit the fees
which lawyers may demand of claim
ants.
No plea of confidential relations
between lawyer and client can justify
the extortiOn which, the Commission
has learned, has been practiced by
some of those who appeared as coun-
sci. No lawyer who is credit to
his high profession would go as far as
some are said to have gone, even to
the point of demanding and collect
ing one-half of the awards made.
The basis of the Commissions
unanimous decision lies in the prin-
ciple of the law itself under which
the body operates. Most of the per-
sons injured in industrial accidents,
as most of those dependent upon men
and women killed in the course of
employment, are of extremely limited
means. They had long been helpless
in the face of obstacles interposed
against their just claims by powerful
and wealthy corporations. The law
undertook, in the name of all Mary
land, to see that justice should be
done.
Originally, and even now, special
counsel for the claimant is not actu-
ally needed, for the Commission itself
is charged with the duty Of finding
and bringing into the record every
fact favoring the claimant. Lawyers
are not barred, however, and some
times have proved helpful. Wherever
it has been asked, the Commission
has fixed the fee the. lawyer should
receive. In cases taken to court after
an adverse opinion, the Commissions
power ends.
Lawyers Of The "ambuiance-chas-
ing" type, unhappily never quite ex-
tinct, pushed their demands So far
that the Commissioners learned what
was going on. Hereafter they, and
not the lawyer. will decide in every
case what pay he is TO receive for
the service he renders. The attitude
of the commission shows that the
days of easy money in compensation
cases is at an end.-Baltimor Ameri-

"Hoso Far That Little Candle Throaos

Hervey's "Book of Christmas" pub
