Clynes, laborite and former fogd con- troller, was rejected, 405 to 5. and the government resolution was unani- mously adopted.

TAFT SAYS COAL STRIKE IS UNLAWFUL CONSPIRACY Malden, Mass., Oct.. 30.—Former President William H. Taft. speaking tonight at a political rally declared that the bituminous coal miners in calling a strike were ‘engaged in an unlawful conspiracy” anl that con- gress had full power “to condemn such a cruel conspiracy ag an offense.” “In an ordinary strike,” he said, “it.- cidental anneyance to the public, which is negligible, does not render the strike illegal. But when enor- mous combinations oferworking men deliberately enter upon a countrywide plan to take the country by the throat and _compel the country to compel the employers in. that particular field of industry to, yield to the demands of the men, they are engaged in an un- luwful conspiracy. The sacredness of their individual right to labor on such Iabor as-they choose and to leaye their employment_ when they will does not protect or justify them in such a con- spiracy. “That is the kind of conspiracy the bituminous coal miners propose to be- n on the first day of November.
