PRESIDENT HARDING TAKES HAND IN COAL STRIKE ‘Washington, June ~28. — Invitations went out from the White House today asking the leaders of the,striking miners and the representatives of the employing coal operators in both the bitumonious and anthracite flelds of the United States to meet President Harding Satur- day, “to devise methods upon which ne- gotiations for the settlement of the coal strike can be intitiated.” The communications made evident that careful and complete discussions with spokesmen on both sides of the in- dustrial struggle had preceded the meet- ing call, and prompt and ready accept- ances are expected immediatcly. John L. Lewls, chief of the United Mine Workers, who remained in the city after a personsl interview with the president, accepted at once in behalf of the union. The wording of the presicent’s message was Interpreted as demonstrating the de- sire of the administration to hold = the meeting about the controversies which have deadlocked the unionized section of the industry since April 1. Official, but informal comment emphasized it was the { Intention that the conference should he held merely to discuss ways and means for a settlement and not to take un the miners’ demands for contlnuance ot war- time wage scales, nor the operators’ de- mand in the bituminous fleld for separate district wage agreements supplanting the semi-national wage contracts that save heertofore been made. It was fully ex- Dected, however, that when the meeting assembled, the president of his cabinet members who have participated in the preliminary efforts would have a program for continuation of the settlement attempt to present to the assemblage. There was no hint, however, as to the line such a program might follow. & Secretary of Labor Davls, who has conducted the negotiations with the union for the government, announced the ac- tion contemplated after a prolonged con- ference today with the president, and of- ficlal coples of the invitations were given out later. Alfred M. Ogle, president of the National Coal association, was avked to notify the association’s subordinate operators’ organizations to name repre- sentatives for the meeting, while S. D. Warriner, of the Anthracite Operators committee, was invited to represent an- thracite operators with the undersanding. that an additional anthracite spokesman should participate.

No further word has come from Consul Shaw at Tampico or from any other official or unofficial source since the consular despatch of Monday, saying that lives of the forty Americans and - §250,000 n destruzijble property were held as security on forty-eight hours' notice for a payment of 15,000 Desos.

Direc- tions to. the embassy in Mexico City and to the consul to insist on adequate pro- tection for American rights went forward at once. So far as known late today no further word had come from any quarter .to disclose what developed® on Tuesday morning when the time limit expired. The Washington government today still withheld any step that might lead the way to demands that the Mexican governmen protect he Americans in jeo- pardy. The attityde at the state de- partment was the reports now available, serious as the situation appeared to be on the face of Consul Shaw's message, did not justify as yet despatch of war- ships to Mexicar waters or any &imilar step, Nothing has yet come to hand in- dicating that the Obregon government is not dealing with the Gorozave coup In 2 way to safeguard American lives and property. There is one point in which the mes- sage of Consul Shaw does not check up with what was previously understood in official circles here to be the situation in the Tampico region. The consul's message said there were no Mexican federal forces in the vicinity of the Aguarda camp of the Cortez Oil com- pany whege the raid and capture took place. Other reports indicate that there are at least 2,500 Mexican federal troops in the Tamplco region. Tntil recently there were & approxi- ‘mately - 15,000" Mexican federals’ in ths Tampico district.

This afternoon Mr. Bielaski with his party, was reported to be proceeding by train to Mexico - City. It is expected he will arrive here some- time tonight. According to the meagre information reaching the capital, the re- lease of Mr. Blelaski was without inci- dent. With the Bielaski kidnapping apparent- Iy entering its final phase, attention now is being centered on the Tampico ofl region, where forty Americans are being held for ransom by the rebel general Gorozave. Confirmation of reports that Gorozave had captured the Americans reached here this afternoon in a private message from Tampico. The message said money for the ransom of the Amer- icans was being forwarded to Gorozave from Tampico. The despatch did not des- ignate by whom the money was being despatched.

One exception was in the case of car- penters, ‘according, to information here, who were cut four cents an hour, of aroroximately §9 a month by the Penn- sylvania order, compared with the cut of one cént an ‘hour, or $2.04 monthly ordered ‘by. the labor board. The labor board cut bridge and building and track foremen $6.36 monthly and the. Penn- sylvania took $5 monthly off the form- er and left the track foremen unchang- ed, it was said. The five cent hourly cut for sectiom men and laborers ordered by the la- bor board was applied by the Pennsy vania, according to the brotherhood in- formant; shop crafts men on the line were cut seven cents an hour, compar- ed with the seven to nine cent schedule applied by the board. it was added, and assistant foremen were cut three cent§ hourly by the Pennsylvania adjustment, compared with five cents in the labor board order.
