OPERATORS COAL PLAN REPLY TO-DAY iners’ Answer dar ciehayed Until i * Saturday at Earliest, Proba- | bly Longer. OBJECTIONS BY BOTH. .President Believes Arbitration Will Bring Peace; Public Must Not Suffer. WASHINGTON, July 12.—While Ro reply from either the bituminous Operators or miners’ unton officials ‘was looked for at the White House before the end of the week, the anthracite operators were understood to be prepared to respond to-day to President Harding's proposals for ur- bitration to end the suspension of work in the unionized coul mining “areas. Previous proposals for arbi 2 tration at the hands of the President by the anthracite employers afforded {the only indication of the probable ature of their reply. Several inconclusive sessions of the ‘bituminous operators now here re- sulted in an ‘adjournment of further meetings until Sunday, after W. M. , Ogle, Chairman of the operators’ j “group, and President of the National ( »oal Association, and a delegated ‘Gummittee of the operators had con- ferred with President Harding on va- *rious phases of his arbitration ‘proposal brought up in the operators’ conferences.

PARIS, July 12 (Associated Press). —Germany to-day handed the Repara- tion Commission here a note request - ing an immediate moratorium for all the remaining payments for 1922, in- cluding that due July 15. Germany further requests that the moratorium be extended for the cash payments provided for 1928 and 1924, under the shedule of May 5, 1921. The one concludes with an expres- sion of hope that a decision for such a settlement will be favorable to the resumption of the loan negotiations, as unless assistance is received from @ foreign loan the depreciation of the mark, it is declared, will progress rapidly to the complete dissolution of the financial, economic and social life of Germany. The note asks for an immediate decision on the application in order to avoid what it declares may soon become a catastrophe, It points out that the recent develop- ments in Germany—the fall of the rate of exchange for the mark—which began upon the adjournment of the negotiations with the International Loan Committee, would perhaps be- come irremediable unless a speedy settlement were reached. The note stated that the 32,000,000 wold marks due on Saturday were available, if the commission insisted upon this payment, but recommended that it also be waived. A majority of the Reparation Com- mission members are understood to favor granting the moratorium, but M.

Corporation Counsel O’Brien an- nounced to-day that the committee appointed by the Mayor to invest!- gate the subway fire had decided to forward immediately a communica- tion to Chairman McAneny of the ‘Transit Commission demanding an open and public investigation of the fire, and that the committee had also sent a communication to Frank Hed ley, General Manager of the Inter- borough, demanding that changes be made immediately in subway car equipment. These changes call for a method of isolating every car from the current of the third rail; that the compart ment containing the automatic contro! for the emergency lighting should be independent of all other compart ments; the elimination of pyrene ex- tingulshers and other extinguishers Hberating toxic gases and the in- stallation of a box containing sand with which electrical fire may be ex- tinguished.

Mr. O'Brien said this was desired so that the responsibility for the fire may be fixed and that the present conditions in the subway be ascer- tained. Mr. O'Brien declared that the recommendation by no means em- braced all of the demands which wil! be made by the city as a result of the investigation made by city of ficlals, It is intended, he said, to supplement these demands now made by further detailed demands covering the various matters of proper insula- tion, ventilation, return of full crews. adequate means for properly cutting off the power from affected section of the third rail, immediate construction of additional emergency exits and other changes.
