In view of -the statement that has been made by Senator Freélinghuy- sen of New Jersey wheréin he e pregses the fear that a secret a rar&nnent had been entered into be- tween the attorney general and the heads of the miners’ union which will result in the plundering of the Amer- ican public, and the statement by the coal cperators to the effect that they have. not accepted the proposition which the government has been pro- claiming as a great victory, it would appear that it was time that the proper amount of enlightenment was provided that it may be possible for those who are bound to be involved to know the facts. The attorney- general in denying that the operators were not informed of the arrangement entered into with the miners points out that the opera- tors have on every.occasion accepted the propos#l that the matters in dis- pute be submitted to arbitration. That is of course the fact and there is no reason to beMeve but what they still favor that. On the othér hand it Is known that the imihers haye persist- ently refused arbitration and turned a deaf ear on all proposals to that end untit the government went over the head of it¥ agent who had been care- fully considering the public welfare. There can be no one who is not favor- able to the adjustment of such preb- lems in accord with the facts, even despite . the, defiance that has- been shown by..the:. miners .of all right and justice, but when the chairman of the senate committee . investigating the coal situation @eelares that he con- siders the plan agreed npon by the government and minets as an impar- tial one as a means of ending ah un- lawful strike and says that ‘“In any event the public may look for an in- crease in the price of coal or another strike” the sftuation cannot he viewed ®s_a satisfactory one.
