COAL CONFERENCE
MEETS TOMORROW
Davis Will Make Conci|iatory
Attempt, Despite Absence
of Some Operators.

The conference of operators and
mine union officials called by Secre-
tary of Labor Davis to meet here to
discuss the coal suspension in the
Northern fields will be held tomor-
row despite refusal Of many leading
operators to attend.
Returning to his office today after
a week end absence, the Labor Sec
retary, who proposed the conference
at the suggestion of the union lead
ers, went over the replies to his call
and announced that the meeting
would not be abandoned.
While principal operators of Ohio,
PENNSYLVANIA and northern West Vir.
ginia declined to accept invitations to
the conference, all Of the union off,
cials addressed were said to have ac-
cepted, along with some individual
coal operators in the territory affected
by the suspension.
Secretary Davis undertook to pre-
pare a statement Of the reasons which
had led to the call and which will be
read to the meeting. The Govern
ment's position, it was understood,
will be clearly outlined. Prior to it's
presentation he refused to amplify his
statement in calling the conference,
and refused likewise to comment upon
the refusal of the more important
mine operators to participate.
