However, if Navy were to lose to

everything else to keep its record clear,
while Yale, still undefeated and united

take the long end of the score.
Despite the fact it Is believed gener-

The most notable accomplishment of

1t is hardly to be expected that West

powerful an eleven as that which repre-

25 COAL PLANS
To Be MERGED
IN ONE CODE
BituminouS Chiefs Flock Here
To Session; Unions Insist
On Right to Organize

Bituminous coal operators from
every section of the United
States converged upon the Ma
tional Capital today for hearings
on code of fair competition to
govern their badly demoralized
industry.
The hearings will begin before
the National Recovery Administra-
ton tomorrow.
Although Is different codes
have been submitted, all of them
probably will be merged into a
single basic set of rules. This
point will not be decided until
the hearings are completed.
Two Main Issues Offered
Two main issues of a highly
controversial nature, along with
numerous smaller issues, will be
debated.
The first deals with unioniza.
ton of the Northern and Appa-
lachian fields, embracing rich
producing areas in Pennsylvania.
Ohio, Northern West Virginia,
Eastern Kentucky and Tennessee.
The second deals with price
fixing.
Two major groups of operators,
the Northern Coal Control Asso-
citation and the Smokeless and Ap-
palachian Coal Association, have
submitted a joint code which in
effect, would outlaw regularly con-
stituted mine unions in favor Of
company unions.
Lewis Cites Recovery
John L. Lewis, president Of the
United Mine Workers of America,
declared:
"The language of the National
Recovery Act absolutely guar
antees the right of labor to Or
ganiZe and join labor Organiza-
tiOns of their own choosing.
Any restrictions upon this right
would be contrary to the act
itself. The trend in all the coal
fields will be toward uniOniza-
tiOn."

the life of Wilhelm Volk, a Com

a police sergeant.
The execution was in line with

tinue with this form of capital
punishment or revive the guillotine

The execution was carried out
in traditional fashion. Volk was
attended by somber eXecutionerS,
attired in ceremonial dress. His

TROUBLE
WATCHED BY
ROOSEVELT
WeIIes Told to Offer "Good
Offices" Intervention Not
Yet Contemplated

HYDE PARK, N. Y, Aug. 8
G.N.S0.-President Roosevelt
looked toward Cuba with anxious
eyes today, but does not at present
contemplate armed Intervention.
On the other hand, it was made
plain, he does not mean this ma
ton will tolerate violence in the
island beyond certain limits.
Mr.. Roosevelt is disposed to let
Cuba work out its own salvation
if it is possible, but he did not go
far from a telephone today. He
was in constant touch with Wash
ington, and has directed Under
secretary of State Phillips to ad-
wise him of every change in the
situation.
WelIes To Offer Services
Sumner Welles, American am
baSsador at Havana, has been
directed to proffer the good Of
fices of this country in bringing
about settlement of the serious
trouble, but was told that further
than that he must not now go.
His job, it was made clear, was
to serve as a sort of informal
mediator, and do what he could,
acting in this status to bring
peace.
The Cuban situation almost
completely overshadowed a con-
ference the President scheduled
today with Profs. George Warren,
of Cornell, and James H. Rodgers,
of Yale, and James Warburg. who
was this Governments monetary
expert at the London Economic
Conference. There was some doubt
whether this would be held, in
in view of the Executives anxiety
over conditions in Cuba. It was
originally slated for Monday but
was postponed.
Reports Not Encouraging
There were a number of tele-
phone calls between here and the
State Department late last night,
it was learned, concerning the
Cuban situation. 1t was under
stood the reports flowing into the
temporary White House have not,
thus far, been encouraging.
It was pointed out that the
President was reluctant to inter-
fere in any way in political quar-
rels in Cuba, in view Of the fact
that the United States has just
started a campaign of trade ex-
pansion in South and Latin
American countries, but should the
Cuban situation become more
critical it was believed the Ameri-
can attitude might be changed.

LAND SUITS

Three condemnation cases which

The cases involve condemnation
of land for the extension of

Ogelthorpe Streets, the widening

sion of Tewkesbury Place.
In recommending dismissal of
the cases, Melvin C. Hazen, Dis

purchase of the land are not
available and that it is unfair to
property owners involved to con-
tinue the proceedings.

Riot Torn Fayette County
Agrees to Peace and Other
Regions Will Follow Lead

UNIONTOWN, Pa, Aug. 8 GIN.
SO.-Striking miners in Fayette
county today voted unanimously
in executive session to return to
work tomorrow morning.
The vote came after a two
hour closed meeting here at
which Edward F.. McGrady, assist
ant to National Recovery Admin
istrator Hugh S. Johnson, prom
ised the men President Roosevelt
intended to stand behind the
workers Of the country.
May End Strike
Action by the Fayette county
strikers is expected to break the
strike not only in the rich Con-
nellsville coke field but also in
adjoining counties where many
workers also have refused to re-
turn to the pits despite Presi-
dent Roosevelt's peace settlement
announcement, effective Monday.
Representatives of 81 local unions
were at the meeting.
The vote this morning affects
approximately 10000 miners in
Fayette county. In addition,
more than 10000 other miners
in Washington, Greene, Allie
gheny and Westmoreland counties
probably will follow the Fayette
unions lead.
Peace in Other Areas
In practically every county ex-
cept riot-torn Fayette and in ad-
joining Washington county, the
walkout previously had appeared
definitely broken.
Between 10000 and $4,000
miners in the northern and east
ern fields returned to work in
full force yesterday morning in
accordance with President Roose-
velt's strife settlement.
During the day, a number Of
mines in Washington and West
moreland counties began opera
tions, adding 5000 to 1000 more
men to the payrolls. All major
tippleS in Washington county,
however, remained idle.

raisers and others who desire to
cooperate with Mr.. Wallace are

There is no doubt about the &C

"They can do this, first, by

them in cases where they can
do so.
Second, by joining the Home
