The American Federation of Labor today stepped definitely Into the dis- pute between the Brotherhood of Lo- comotive Engineers and the United Mine Workers of America regarding operation of the brotherhood’s coal mines along the Coal River, in West Virginia, the scene for mc of a peculiar tangle, in whic e labor organization, as an employer, Was allied against the other, representing employes. President Green of the fed- eration announced appointment of & committee of three, consisting of Se retary nk - Morrison and Vice Presidents van and James P. Noonan Grand Chief Warren brotherhood. Incidentally, this marks the first attack of the current problems facing President Green in his new office. action is pursuant to a resolu- on adopted at the El Paso conven- tion of the F on last Fall, w declared th al River co leries, operating Virginia and Kentucky, had discharged mem- bers of the mine workers “for exer- cising their constitutional rights of affiliating with the union of their craft.” Stone of the in West Settlement Sought. The convention went on record as | believing the company was following in general the pollcies of the non- union operators of West Virginia. and authorized the executive council to be instructed “to exercise its good offices to secure a settlement.” The executive council in turn dele- gated President Gompers to take up this question, but the death of Gom- pers prevented him from meeting with Grand Chief Stone. This au- thority descended to Mr. Green, the former eecretary-treasurer of the mine workers, which was one of the parties at interest, and Mr. Green has elected to step out of the ticklish po- sition by authorizing this commlttee of three to act as his agent While no definite date for the meeting between the committee and Mr. Stone has been announced, it was stated today that all possible haste in opening the negotiations is de- sired.

By the Associated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, January 15.—A. Mitchell Palmer, former alien prop- erty custodian, probably will be call- ed by the defense as a witness in the Hackfeld sugar suit on trial here, in which former stockholders in the once powerful German SuUgar com- panies in Hawail are seeking an ac- counting on the ground that property worth $17,500,000 was seized during the war and sold for $7,500,000. The announcement was made during yester- day afternoon’s session in Superior Court by Attoreny Oscar Sutro, chief defense counsel. Ald Also to Be Called. Walter Denegre, naval radio cen- sor in Honolulu during tHe war, and Bradley Palmer, an associate of A Mitchell Palmer as alien property custodian, also will be called, defense counsel intimated While holding firm to his conten- tion that his sole object in recom- mended to Palmer the ‘‘unscram- bling” of the reorganization of J. F. Hackfeld, Ltd., was to effect a re- organization “along purely American lines,” H. F. Trent, president of the Trent Company, Ltd., admitted that 37,600 of the 40,000 shar were in the hands of persons whose Ameri- canism was unquestioned at the tjme he made his suggestion to Palmer. Trent refused to admit that the ob- vious course was to have furthered the sale of the remaining shares held by enemy allens, as proposed by W. F. Dillingham, W. F. Frear .and clates identified’ with the “Dillingham reorganization.” R Gude’s Flowers always appreciated—flowers 1212 F.—Advertisement. are telegraph.
