I us; w &j fi BRUSH COAL MEN READYTOR PARLEY Pramiar in Receptive Frame of , Mind, but Says Settlement Must Be Final RAIL MEN DELAY DECISION Ttjr the Awoclatal Prw , London. Oct. 20. Negotiation which i might settle the strike of Hritiali miners arc believe! to be assured. Government offltfajs and labor leaders who outlined their positions before tho opening sea filofi of Parliament have shown their desire to reaeh an understanding. He Hef is Reneral today that both sides are drawing up proposals. Tremler Lloyd George has definitely declared he Is ready to enter into ne gotiations, but he has laid emphasis on the fact that the government wants a final settlement of the differences which brought about a cessation of work In British mines la-t Saturday. II has stated plans for a tentative wage Increase pending a complete ad justment would not be satisfactory, as that method of meeting the present slt . ttatlon would threaten trouble later. Coal production, he holds, must be aug mented, and he may submit some pro posals which will deal with this phace of the situation The national union of railway men. (he executive of the transport workers and the parliamentary committee of the trades union congress all held meet ings this morning to consider their at titude toward Mie coal strike, but thus far no decisions have been taken. The greatest importance attached to the, na tional union of railwnymcn'o meeting; which was a full delegates' conference with power to declare a sympathetic trlke without referring the matter to th union members. After approximately two hours of dis cussion, James Henry Thomas, general ecretary of the rallwaymen's union, nam tne wnoic situation had been re viewed and adjournment taken until Thursday. The executive of the trans port workers and the trades union com mitted continued their meetings this aft ernoon. Divided on Strike A sharp difference of opinion prevails among the railroad men. some of the del egates having come to the meeting with Instructions from their branches to us every effort to secure a peaceful settle ment, while other delegates were turned with resolutions by their members de manding a sympathetic strike. Mr Thoman personally desires neace. it is declared, but has a strong minority of ! the organization's executive working i against him. The railway clerks of Wales have wired Srvrotnrv Tlmmnu .!,lni HUannroved of tho ln,frrHnno' tw nave received to remain neutral, aud they adopted a resolution tirirlue the lerk to link up with the other unions i In support of the miners, even to tin extent of leaving their work. Tho national council of the Independ ent Labor party adopted a resolution today expressing grave apprehension ver the attitude of the .government to ward the miners, "conveying, ns it does, an aggressive challenge to the whole working class movement." The resolution requests the Labor party to convene a special conference. "The position of the National Union of iRallwaymen this morning was regarded tby officials as particularly difficult, in asmuch as tho miners have not officially appealed for a strike by the railway men in support of the miners' cause. It also is poluted out that the railway delegates realized that anything might happen within a day or two in the way of renewed negotiations and that an im mediate rally, ay strike might not only be premature but unnecessary. The del egates, therefore, decided to delay their decision. One of the strongest rumors relative to a possible settlement comes from the South Wales coal field, whicli has been recognized as the main center of disaffection and extremism. A Cardiff dispatch to the London Times says It is stated there the end of the deadlock may be reached if three or four days. Will Increase, Living One effect of the coal strike will be an increase in the cost of living, owing to the decline in the value of the pound eterllnc and the Increased cost of in ward-bound freights, caused by the diminution of exports, declared Austen Chamberlain, chancellor of the ex chequer, In answering a question in the .House ot rommons tonay.
