ent Conditions
SITUATION GROWS SERIOUS
Rv n Staff Correspondent
Washington, June S. Secretary of
Commerce Hoever Is prepared te sub
mit te the Senate Immediately nil the
coal strike facts requested In the 'Walsh
resolution passed yesterday.
Ne Investigation by Government
agencies will be necessary, It was said
today. Se closely have Secretary
Hoevor and hii aides followed the sit
uation that the only time consumed In
retting the facts te the Senate will
be that required te assemble them In
a formal report. This report, when
submitted will show :
First, the present supply of bitumi
nous coal in hand.
Second, the average weekly produc
tion and consumption since the strike
began, and at the prient time.
Third, the amount of coal which ex
pert estimate will be required for all
uses In the United States between new
aid May 1, 1023.
Fourth. The effect of the strike en
coal prices, and the probable effect of
a continuation of the strike beyond
September 1. ,
Fifth. The action taken by the De
partment of Comraerca and ether gov gev
ernmental agencies te terminate the
strike, and the Administration's atti
tude toward it.
Slith. Steps taken te protect the
public against extortionate prices for
coal should the strike continue.
It is well known that the strike sit
uation and Its possible effects arc being
ftewed with increasing seriousness In
official quarters. Information in Secre
tary Hoever's poscsesslen shows
clearly that reserve steckn of coal are
being rapidly reduced, that consumption
even in the summer season Is running
considerably ahead of production, and
that unless operators and miners get
together In the next thirty davs the
country may face a coal shortage next
winter.
MINERS TURN DOWN
APPEAL TO HARDING
New Yerk, June 3. (By A. ,IM
A proposal that President Harding be
asked te appoint a tribunal te settle
the anthracite coal strike, submitted
by the operators yesterday before the
Joint Sub-Committee en Wage Contract
Negotiations, was rejected by the
miners.
Philip Murray, vice president of the
United Mine Workers, declined te state
en what grounds the preposition was
turned down, except te declare It "ob
jectionable." Laber members of the
Joint Sub-Committee announced they
will call a meeting of the Oencral An
thracite Scale Committee at Ha?.leten,
Pa., next Tuesdny te frame a counter
proposal. The Invitation te President Harding
te which the miners refused te subscribe
asked him te "appoint n commission or
tribunal te find a practical method by
which prompt operation of the mines
may be resumed pending its ultimate
decision, and also te seek nnd recom
mend a method by which futnre mis mis
pensiens or striken may be avoided."
'Thus," said S. D. Warrincr. chair
man of the operators' delegation te the
wage conference, "we place ourselves
unreservedly In the hands of the Presi
dent, without strings or qualifications.
We want the mines reopened as seen
M possible."
Called Counter- Proposal
At the miners' headquarters, hew-
the operators proffered solution of
the strike wns looked upon as nothing i
mere than a counter-proposal te that
which strikers' delegates bubmitted two
weeks age, and which the emplevers
refused te sign, namely, that Mr.
Harding empower the federal Trade
Commission and the Interstate Com
merce Commission te begin at once a
complete investigation of the Industry,
from vases te prices of the product.
Although it wns reported that thc
independent operators had mnde ever
tares te the miners for reopening of
the cellieiles en the basis of the nenle
which lapsed April 1, Mr. Wnrriner.

The Defense Plea
Majer Fowler said in opening
the
case for the defense :
"The Constitution of the United
States applies te freedom of the press
and likewise applies te the centribu
tien by citizens of communications te
the press, ise act et Longress can
prohibit such communications unless
libelleus or constituting treason. That
right cannot be taKcn awuy. Te at
tempt te curb these rights constitutes
nn infringement of the Inalienable richt
of the American citizen. Therefore te
the chnrge we plead net guiitv."
The court did net allow this plen,
however, and the trial proceeded.
Majer Nichelson asked permission te
make n statement, and this was nc-
corded him. He said :
"I nlcadcd several days age for a
continuation of this case en two
greunds: First, because I am net iep
resented nt the present time by civilian
counsel, and. secondly, because of the
serious condition of my family, which
requires my presence there. I have
telegraphed numerous times te Gov
ernors Island und te the Secretary of
War. without any response, I have
confidence In Majer lewlcr. I also

WITHHOLDS PAPERS
IN STEEL INQUIRY
Schiff Refuses te Produce Doc
uments Called for by Lock Leck Lock
weed Committee
ASSERTS THEY ARE PRIVATE
New Yerk, June 3. Mortimer It.
Schiff, of Kuhn, Leeb & Ce., today
declined te produce documents relating
te the Ilenubllc-Midvnle-Inlnnd Steel
merger, which the Lockwood Legislative
Committee ordered him te turn ever te
them.
His refusal wns based en a claim that
the papers were private documents
which the committee had no power te
ncqulre.
When Mr. Schiff sought te qualify
this refusal by saying he1 would con
sult counsel about thc advisability of
complying with the request, Samuel
Untermycr, counsel for thc committee,
asked if he would produce thc papers if
directed te de se by the committee
chairman, .
"I won't 'decline, and I won't say
yes," was the reply.
The papers merely dealt with mat
ters' of n private nature earnings of
companies In the proposed merger nnd
such subjects, he snld.
In negotiating the merger, the wit
ness declared, he hnd net conversed
with J. P. Morgan, or made any in
quiries whether the merger would be
agreeable te him or te thc United States
Steel Corporation.
Themas L. Chadbeurnc, counsel for
thc Republic Iren nnd Steel, the Mid
vale and the Inlnnd Steel Companies,
during negotiations looking te their
merger, wns called te appear before the
committee today and explain the details
of thc consolidation.
A subpeenn wns issued for Mr. Chad Chad
beurne yesterday after Mr. Untermycr
had denounced the officials of the three
companies for the mnnncr of the merger
announcement nnd the fnct that they
had net explained the details of the new
company's financing by Kuhn, Leeb &
Ce.
Jehn N. Te'pplng,, chairman of the
beard of thc Repueiic Iren nnd Steel
Company, was called te tnke the stand
again today te tell of n stock bonus ar
rangement with the bankers. Yesterdny
Mr. Untcrrtyer drew from Mr. Topping
the admission that among the unpub
lished detnils of the merger was a deal
with Kuhn, Leeb & Ce. te rnlse $0o, $0e,
000,000 te underwrite the merger nnd
$20,000,000 te mnke a market for th-s
new North American Steel shnrcs.
This ?20.000,000, Mr. Untermycr de
clared, wan te be used for trading in
the market se that when the stock
reached a proper high level the "in
siders could' unload and the outsiders
could lend up."
