He explained that if the secession in 1861 had been a successful one, “either the stronger part would have subdued the weaker or by agreement the two portions would have coms together.” The condition of neutrality, Mr. Bur- ton said. was originated by President Washington when he declined, over the sentiment of the people, to render assistance to the French Revolution.

Mr. Jones was moved to make these observations to the present writer in the wake of the Senator’s action a day or two ago in reporting favorably from the Senate committee on District af- fairs the joint resolution submitting the constitutional amendment designed to ‘“‘Americanize the Washingtonian." The coast statesman, ranking member of the committee, was a leader in the proceedings which resulted in a sim- flar committee indorsement in a pre- ceding Congress. “The combined civic organizations of ‘Washington,” sald Senator Jones, “plan a vigorous fight at hearings be- fore the Senate judiclary committee next December on behalf of ‘voteless ‘Washington.” They have already pre- sented an unanswerable case to the House judiclary committee. “I understand that they have, inad- dition to these purely congressional efforts, placed their cause before a dis- tinguished list of men and women throughout the country.

MIAMI, Fla.,, February 22.—The Joint conference of miners and opera- tors of the unionized central bitumi- nous field ended today in faflure to reach a new wage agreement 1o re- place the Jacksonville agreement which expires on March 31. Adjournment this morning followed acceptance of the report of a sub- committee which could not reconcile diverse demands by the wage scale committees of miners and operators. The adjournment was sine die. elsewhere and an agreement reached before April 1, union miners aytomati- cally will cease labor in the central bituminous flelds. Three-Day ‘Effort Fails. The subcommittee announced its fallure to agree yesterday after de- liberating for three days the Lewis and Haskins proposals received from | the joint conference late Wednesday. The Haskins proposal, drafted by the wage scale committee of the operators, sought to replace the Jack- sonville agresment with a continuous scale, competitive with the wages paid in the non-union mines of ‘West Virginia. Its effectiveness would have been obtained through a com- mission of miners, operators and medi- ators, the latter to have the final word in all disagreements. W. H. Has- kins, operator, acted as spokesman in presenting the plan. Offered John L.
