In this |message he dwelt entirely upon the critical situation result- ing from the coal and rail strikes. “Immediate provision for a temporary national coal agen- cy, with needed capital to purchase, sell and distribute on which is carried in interstate shipment” was asked by the president as a means of safeguarding the public’s inte he declared, sence ultimately would bring might not be needed, but would “be /4 basis of settlement. the instrumentality of guarding the Such an agency, Immediately after the ‘ public’s interest where private con-|joint session the executives aelence is insensible to need.” Harding also asked authority to create @ coal commission to investi- to reveal all sweeping authority phases. Need for such a searching in- vestigation is imperative, Hard- ing said, if another coal strike next April is to be avoided. No such immediate remedy for the ralirond situation was suggested by He declared the railroad |labor board should have power to enforce its decrees against both capl- jtal and labor, but no revision of the jlaw right now was askeg “Buch action would not be helpful |in the present threatened paralysis of transportation,” he said. “There %s extsting law by which to settle the prevailing disputes. There are statutes for- bidding conspiracy hindering in- terstate commerce and laws as- suring highest possible safety in railway service. It is my pur pose to invoke these laws, civil and criminal, against all offend- ers alike.” Emphatic disapproval was voiced against an apparent move to destroy labor unions. He declared it was in the public interest to preserve and profit by the good in labor unions. However, the president bitterly de nounced the butchery at Herrin, IL, and “other outbreaks of violence” in connection with the coal strike. “The simple but significant truth is that, except for such coal as comes from the districts worked by non-organized miners, the coal industry is at the mercy of the United Mine Work- he said, after asking speedy enactment of a law em- powering the government to deal with situations like the Herrin trouble “for better protection of aliens and for the enforcement of their treaty rights.” “My renewal of this recommenda tion,” said Harding, “is impelled by itiable sense of federal impotence to deal with the shocking-crime at Herrin, Ils. which so recently shanred and horrified the country. In that butchery of human beings, wrought in madness, it is alleged that two aliens were murdered. This act adds to the outraged sense of Amer- fcan justice and humiliation which lies in the federal governnrent’s lack Construction work on the W. Spo/of authority to punish that unuter- bridge will begin tmmedi ately a8 a result of tho settiement, | of able crime.” Turning to the coal situation, the president said “The simple but significant truth is that, except for such coal as comes from the districts worked by non-or- mercy of the United Mine Workers.” A reorganization in the coal indus: try is necessary, the executive said, asserting that there are 200,000 more miners In the fields than are neces. sary to produce in continuous em- | ployment the needed coal.
