President in his view that he had no
authority to act In this matter.
THE President has no more author

by law than any other man in this
country" said Senator Reed. This
Government is one of law.
The thing that interests me is the
continued passing of the buck the

boldly minated that the President
should compel either one side or the
other in this controversy to yield.

of the kind. If force is to be APP
piled, it should be authorized by
statute"
Senator Reed declared that it was
an intolerable condition in great
country where two organizations of
men controlling a great national re-
source can so demean themselves
that because of their quarrel 100 ,000,-
900 people can be made to suffer.
He declared that the Senate and
the House should take the response
bility and enact legislation to deal
with such a situation. He said that a
conspiracy to freeze the people of the
United States ought 10 be made
high crime and misdemeanor.
why don't we do it," demanded
Senator Reed. He said that it was be-
cause of the power of organized CAPT
tai on one hand and labor on the
other.
The resolution was presented short
ly after it was explained at the White
House Friday that the President re-
CARDS the Government as unable to
act in the controversy until Congress
provides legislation permitting inter
vention in industrial disputes.
Congressional interest in the coal sit
uation also is evident in the House,
five of whose members, representing
mining districts of Pennsylvania. con-
ferred yesterday with Secretary Davis
at the Labor Department. They did
not ask for specific Government &C
ton, declaring they doubted the eff
cacy of Federal intervention. a num-
Der of bills and resolutions seeking a
solution of the coal problem are pend

WATCH EFFORTS CLOSELY.

HAZLETON, Pa. January 16 C4).--
Activities of national legislators and
others at Washington in the effort to
find a way to end the anthracite strike
are being watched closely by leaders
of the United Mine Workers, but no
comment is forthcoming from them.
President John l.. Lewis of the
United Mine Workers, who came here
TO attend a meeting of the miners
scale committee on Thursday, was dis
inclined today to make any statement
on the efforts being made at the Ma
tional Capital in the interest of a set
tlement.
Reiteration by the Government thai
there will be no interference at this
time in the strike was a disappoint-
ment to many miners and business
its fifth month. has had very de-
pressing effect on business in the
small communities and the prospect
that the SuSpenion would continue at
least another month made the gloom
deeper than ever.
President Lewis will speak in
WilkeS-Barre tomorrow afternoon and
is expected to answer some of the
criticisms that have been aimed at
him. He will speak in Scranton on
Monday and Tuesday will find him in
Shenandoah at the southern end of
the anthracite fields.
District officers and other leaders
are concentrating energies on relief
work. 1t has been planned to send
representatives to many Eastern
points where anthracite is consumed
in order to encourage the response to
the appeal of the American Fedora
ton of Labor for funds.
The miners will appear before labor
unions, civic bodies and other organ
izations in various cities and explain
the miners side of the strike.

URGES COAL HEARINGS.
Treadway Says Inquiry Should Start
Promptly.

That hearings on the coal problems
as embodied in the recommendations
of President Coolidge to Congress last
year and again this year should be
started promptly by the House COM
mittee on interstate and foreign COM
merce is urged by Representative AL
len Treadway, Republican, of Mass
achusetts, member of the legislative
steering committee, in an open letter
to Chairman James S. Parker of the
commerce committee.
The power that President Coolidge
has twice asked Congress to give him
should at once be placed in his hands,
Mr.. Treadway emphasizes, pointing
out that now is most opportune time
for action, since the Pennsylvania
State Legislature has coal legislation
as one of it's outstanding duties.

tonight. affected an area about a
mile or more square. 1t was pre-
vented from going back into the far
reaches of the workings, they said,
by wide water hole. 1t was pre-
vented from coming outward to the
shaft because the mine. just previous
to the blast. had been thoroughly
Sprlnkled for some distance back.
District Mine Inspector Evan Grif.
fifth of Ciarksburg explained that
usually gas and dust explosions
travel fuse-like throughout the work
ings.
I'm this case the explosion was
localized because of water at the main
entry and farther back in the mine.

Great Britain there is altogether too
much peace since France and Ger
many got together in the persons of
BRAND and Stresemann at the Swiss
village of Thoiry and formed a bloc
which looks bad for John Bull.
AS a result, Great Britain has sud

entente to include Spain ultimately, to
balance up against the Franco-German
rapprochement.
Sir Austin Chamberlain visits and

Soviet Chess Players
Join International of
Chess; Win Berlin Game

MOSCOW, (By MaiD There is
a very large umber of chess players
in the trade unions of the U. S. S. r.
On Dec. 1, 1925. the chess sections of
the trade union clubs had a member
ship of $4,000. The various trade
union chess sections are headed by
the chess section Of the Central Coun-
ell of Trade Unions.
At the end of last year the chess
section received a formal invitation
to Join the Labor Chess international.
On Dec. 3, 1925, the question of affilia-
tion to the Chess International was
officially discussed by the Central
Council Presidium and the basic prin-
ciples of afiiliation were decided upon.
After the visit of the Russian trade
union chess delegation to Germany
(where the Chess international head
quarters are located, and where. it
may be mentioned in passing, the So
Wet chess players won a brilliant vic
tory over the German labor chess
players) a complete understanding
was reached, and the Central Council
Presidium sanctioned the affiliation of
the chess section to the international,
appointing comrades Levman and
Griasnov as representatives Of the
Russian section in the Chess Interna-
tional Bureau.
