Hnllrend stock Ih out of repair. This situation will be ng grnvntrd if the strike lasts. Hut mere serious Is the fuel situation. upon the settlement of the railroad strike. If both were ended It would still be months before the Federal con trol of fuel distribution could be re laxed. AVIth the railroad strike, going en, nothing is te be gained by seeking an pnil nf fne rnnl atrfkA l?.n. tt .t.. mlifts were running full tlme, with the proKnssjve uisintcgrniien or railroad service, It would be Impossible te Bupply ihu vuiiHiry 8 neon ui coal. Fer this reason efforts te end the cenl deadlock have been relaxed by the Ad ministration pending n settlement of the railroad strike. Ne ene here la es pecially hopeful of the joint conference of fctrUers nnd operators which Jehn h. Lewis has cnllcd next Monday in Cleveland. The optimism of the unions is re garded as propaganda te convince the public thnt the mine strikers arc seeking pence. If a conference is refused by the cenl operators or If the cenl operators prove obstinate In the conference, the miners hope te gain favor with the public. With' both strikes continuing a few weeks longer, the recovery of business which hns recently started will be se riously set bnck. It is arguments like this which Mr. Hoeycr will urge upon the railroad executives in New Yerk today. He will nlse urge upon th'em the im portance of thnt fenture of the Pres ident's plnn which calls for the recognl recegnl recognl tlen by both sides of the authority of the Railroad Laber Itenrd. Hitherto both the rnllrends and their empleye have accepted or rejected the Laber Heard's rulings as they snw fit. Legally they nre free te de se, the beard Having no power te enforce its decisions. The weakness which President Hard ing csncclnllv frets In an industrial crisis Is the utter lnck of authority of the Federal Government. He has al luded te it many times, most recently In his letter te Governer Grecsbcck, of Michigan, A few men, whether employers or Inber lenders, can impair the Industrial prospects of the country, involving great less te the public, nnd the Admin istration can de nothing about It. The utmost that public authority In capable of la te guarantce the protection of workers who nre willing te take the place of strikers. This it has done in both coal and railroad strikes, but with out adding te the production of coal e te the operation of trains. An agreement by both railroad exec utives and shepmen te respect the de cisions of the Laber Benrd would be the first step toward establishing the authority of the Government. It would, of course, net bind any ether railroad unions or the railroads in their rela tions te them, but it would open the way te the extension of this principle te the whele rnilrend industry and it would perhaps lead te Its acceptance in the coal Industry. One nlm of the President is te estab lish n public body whose decisions will be accepted by miners nnd mine oper ators. Ne one expects that the princi ple of compulsory arbitration will be fully accepted, but nn effort will be made te establish n great mcasure of authority for beards like the Railroad Laber Denrd. rtf IF short CRers m nussiA Ootlmlntte rcpertn an te cren condition In Husnlft nr contradicted by prominent rhv.
