Feeling that neither miners nor op- erators are actually willing at the moment to take a final stand, which would bring about a strike, commis- sion members are said to believe that a waiting policy is likely to find the conferees back in conference of their own acocrd. It also s pointed out that more than a month must elapse before any strike could actually go into effect. Officlally, the commission yesterday withheld any statement. After putting in several hours in executive discussion of the situation, it fook up other por- tions of its task of investigating the industry. While all of the serious po- tentialities of the anthracite break are in the minds of the commission, there is a belief that the temperament of par- ties to the dispute and other factors makes it less likely that a strike will actually eventuate than some obssrvers predict. There are positive intimations, how- ever, that if the break continues the commission will intervene, though its authority under the present law is strictly limited. The first move would be a moderately phrased request for the ieaders in the industry to resume uiscus- slon upon the wage contract. What steps might follow is still to be decided. HOT STATEMENTS ISSUED. Bituminous Operators Draw Fire of Union Leaders. By the Associated Press. ATLANTIC CITY. N. In session here today to draw up recommendations for the United States Coal Commission covering the soft coal industry, the bituminous operators’ special committee sus- pended business to come to the aid of the anthracite operators with a broadside against the check-off, the closed shop and the United Mine Workers of America and its methods, which drew the return fire of the union’s big guns. ¥ The hard coal operators were ab- sent from the city, having withdrawn to let the government take the mext step, after the explosion of wage negotiations with the union delegates yesterday over the closed shop and the check-off. At another hotel the miners were awaiting word from Washington. They did not know the bituminou: operators’ special com- mittee was in the city and the state- ment_hit their headquarters like a bolt from the blue. Say Statement False. rged that the miners' rtion that the check-off was en- ced “to the satisfaction of every- in the bituminous fields was that the system was contrary to the principles of Americanism and »f unfonism; that under it the United Mine Work collected $17,000.000 a year for their war chest: that it paid for the armed invasion of West Vir- ginia ir 1921 by 1 0 men; that it furnished $900,000 in Hlinois “to de- feat justice against the Herrin mur- derers”; that it was illegal and that it created strikes rather than pre- vented them. The operators further condemned the union miners' leaders for re- fusing to accept the operators’ pe- tition that their differences be sub- mitted to arbitration harging their attitude was “directly onnected with this iniquitous (check-off) system.” Lewis Reply ix Warm.

Mr. Lewis proposes to cut off the supply of anthracite coax to the public on the single issue that the operators will not consent to collect forcibly for his organization dues and assessments from every mine worker in the anthracite field. He appeals to the public for justifi- cation of his position on the ground that the check-off is a regular feature of union contracts and has worked to the satisfaction of every- body in the bituminous fields. “No statement could be further from the. truth. The check off has proved so inimical to the steady and peaceful production of bituminous coal that the bituminous _operators special committee has filed a formal request with the United States coal Commission for the complete abolition of the system.

It feeds a fund which every man who commits an act of violence in aid of this organization throughout the country will be at his command to help him escape pun- ishment for his acts.” In his counter-attack, Mr. Lewis said: he statement of the special com- mittee is merely propaganda in be- half of the non-union coal operator: who dominate the National Coal As. sociation, whose policies are formu- lated by non-union coal interests in Pennsylvania, southern West Vir- ginia, Kentueky and Alabama, where many of their mines are manned by convict labor. 5 Hits Operators’ Fund, “Those interested are bitterly op- posed to the principles of collective bargaining and have assessed them- elves huge sumg of money, admitted- 1y in excess of $10,000,000 to fight the United Mine Workers. “Many of their mines are located in communities under conditions sim- flar to the feudal conditions prevail- ing in the medieval age.

Brook- hart of lowa, shouted to a grand- stand full of members of the Iowa Farmer's Union, their wives and chil- dren, assembled on the Fair grounds here for a state picnic of that arder. Making the most of lulls in the Whirr of low flying airplanes, squeal- ing balloons and the shouts of the cold drink peddlers, Senator Brook- hart managed to make heard a re- cital of his experiences and observa- tions during his recent tour of seven- teen European countries. “Tipped Off to Big Business.” Senator Brookhart retraced the his tory of the collapse of agricultural prices in 1920, and reiterated that the reatriction of credit which hit the farmer to the tune of several billions of dollars had been tipped off to most big business interests and that big business did not fail to take advan- tage of the tip. “I know one Iowa congressman who Dbought $2,000 of the loan floated by Armour & Co. on the strength of that up, and he still has it,” Brookhart declared. “The greatest agricultural panic in history followed that fatal meeting of the Federal Reserve Board,” he shouted. “Do you farmers want me {to let the government sit ldly by and see that same thing repeated against you? You have as good a right to the advantages of a government marketing agency which will malke it possible for you to collect the cost af production and a reasonable profit for your crops as the steel trust has to have its profits protected by the government. It was a governmental agency, the board of which met in secret sesslon May 18, 1920, and de- clded to deflate vou, but not to let you know anything about it.” Only Immedinte Remedy.

NIPPON MANDATES UP. GENEVA, July 28.—The league of nations issued the following state- ment this evening: “The league permanent mandates commission proceeded today with the examination " of the report of the Japanese government dealing with the administration of towns in the Pacific under Japanese mandate.

Certainly Tur- key will come in next autumn as the new Lausanne treaty intrusts to the league important administrative func- tions of special interest to Turkey. Today when the rolls are called fifty-two nations have a right to par- ticipate in the dellberations of the league. If there was for a time any danger of a rival association of na- tions being set up, that danger is past. League Gains Strength. Even the Washington conference on armament limitation and far eastern affairs falled to provide any perma- nent macnhinery to keep on consid- ering and checking up on many ques- tions and principles raised by that meeting, and probably the league it- self will some day be found keeping ‘watchful eye on'the problems grow- ling out of the Washington treaties. With practically every nation in the world in the league, and with no danger of a rival institution being created to break down the organiza- tion already formed, the league hat gained momentum and strength. If America comes in, so much the bet- ter, but the nations are finding the league valuable as an international mechanism for the settlement of doz- ens of intricate guestions. The hu- {manitarian and Realth work of the league is making a deep impression on the whole world, and even the 1United States government sent offi- clal representatives to the oplum conference recently conducted under the league auspices. Incidentally, the writer, in examining the minutes of that meeting, came across the fol- lowing statement made in a speech Jby the Right Rev. Bishop Brent, who ‘was President Harding’s appointee to the opium conferenc: | _The league of nations, with whom, through you, we are treating in this matter represents the greatest asso- clation of nations in all history, soi- emnly bound by agreement to think and act in terms of mankind. Although there is an impression in America that the league is dead, it is a fact that the United States government directly and indirectly keeps in touch with league work and Americans have sat on some impor- |tant commissions in" conference by |lh2 league. People in the league think that ultimately America will join. They have heard President Harding say l“no" but they think his volce is that of one political faction and that even he has turned favorably toward the greatest of the league's achleve- ments, namely: the establishment of a permanent court of international Justice. So they feel that in time American sentiment will swing to the league. I Expect United States Ultimately. It may take five or ten years, but what is that in the life of an organ- ization whose members think it will, in_time, become the greatest moral influence for the preservation of peace in all history? Both President Harding and Sec- rotary of State Hughes have wished the league suc for the sake of Europe, but have not belleved it could benefit America. Time alone can tell whether the United States will benefit from the policy of aloofness. \ Certainly the league is no longer thinking in terms of America, but is proceeding confidently on its way to help make the whole world pro- gressively better in the age-long struggle between greed and higher morality. from their swindling company stores, doctors’ fees, blacksmithing, house rent, house coal, tools, fuse, mining supplies, taxes and funds for the maintenance of base ball clubs, etc. “They prevaricate when they state that the United Mine Workers forcibly compel them to contribute to the organi- zation.
