OPERATORS, MINERS LOOK TO COOLIDGE WASHINGTON, Aug. 22 — Governors of the principal anthracite consuming states were requested today by Federal Fuel Distribution Walleigh to send representatives to a conference in New York on August 28 to discuss and formulate plans for the distribution of bituminous coal and coke for domestic use in the event of the strike in the anthracite fields on September 1. WASHINGTON, Aug. 22 — The United States government will not intervene directly in the coal situation for at least 30 hours. This commission was made this afternoon by John Hays Hammond, chairman of the coal commission, after conferences participated in by President Coolidge. The commission has decided so hold in obeyance at least until tomorrow the report it is drafting in which the blame will be fixed for the temporary collapse of the Atlantic City mine negotiation work. This course was determined soon in the hope that the operators and miners would get together amicably. By JACK CARBURY (N.I.S. Steel Corporation) ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. Aug. 22 — The next move in the deal-bound dispute of anthracite operators and miners must come from Washington. John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers Union, and Samuel D. Warriner, spokesman for the operators made this ruling early today. The warring groups—Lewis and his alides, quartered at the Ambassador Hotel, and Warriors and the operators at the Hunter Tragmore—marked time this morning. We did not break off the conference—the miners did Warriner said Coal Commission, for a reopening of the meeting. "The miners will not ask a re-opening," Hatty asserted Lewis. Warriner would not say. Lewis and Warriner disagree as to what actually brought the break. "It was a question of wages," Warriner said. "Lewis said. 'His mind was made up—there was no sense in going on.'" "Arbitration—the operators' plea that wages, the check-off and all other demands made by the miners be submitted to arbitration, the miners refused, that's the true story of the break-off," Warriner said. Lewis comment on this statement was that the miners have local confidence in arbitration. He added he did not know when the miners would leave Atlantic City. In spite of the apparent seriousness of the situation, the operators believe a settlement is certain. The leaders of the miners do not expect a strike. They do not expect for one thing, that President Coolidge will permit a strike to take place. If a strike does occur, however, they are prepared, they see, to meet it. They give the impression they have the unrest confidence in scoring a victory for the men. COMMISSION DRAFTS REPORT WASHINGTON, Aug. 22 — While the U.S. Coal Commission was drafting a report today to let the public know who is responsible for the failure of the anthracite operators and miners to enter into a new wage agreement, official assurances came from the White House that the country was going to be supplied with all the fuel that is needed after Sept. 1, whether or not there was a strike in the hard coal fields. President Coolidge is determined that there will be no suffering from lack of fuel. The government today put the finishing touches on its plans to flood the anthracite consuming regions with bituminous coal, coke and other substitutes. We declared at the White House. ASKS $10,000 FOR YOU Damages of $1 a suit filed today The next must be the deadlocked dispute of anthracite operators and miners more come from Washington. John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, and Samuel D. Warriner, spokesman for the operators, made this point early today. The wrrring groups—Lewis and his aides, quartered at the Ambassador Hotel, and Warriner and the operator—made this point early today. "We did not break off the conference—the miners did," Warriner said when shown International News Service reports from Washington quoting John Hays Hammond, chairman of the U.S. Coal Commission, as saying: "It is up to the miners and operators now." "We're not going to ask that the conference be resumed," Lewis said. James A. Gorman, neutral secretary of the joint conference and representative of the coal commission at the deadlocked conference, verified that neither side had, up to 11:30 o'clock this morning, asked him to call the meeting into session again. The conference wrecked on the question of wages. The miners had demanded 20% increase for contract miners and an increase of $2 a day for day laborers. The operators refused this demand and offered arbitration, which the minors spurned. A strike Sept. 1 was the only alternative. Lewis indicated, and in a formal statement he promised the operators the "thrashing of their lives". Under the motion of adjournment either side may make application to James A. Gorman, secretary of the joint conference, acting for the U.S. SANTA ANA ART GLASS WORKS (Wholesale and Retail) EXPERT WORKERS IN ART-LEADED AND PRISM GLASS PLATE GLASS WIND WINGS THE NEW ORAL New supplying company Capacity THE ORANGE & T EXPERT WORKERS IN ART-LEADED AND PRISM GLASS PLATE GLASS WIND WINGS MIRRORS WINDOW GLASS Estimates Given on Jobs of Any Size "The Only Beveling Shop in Orange County" WOXE 391-W 1204 E. 4th St. SANTA ANA A Product Is As Good as the Manufacturers' Reputation Behind It.
