COAL DISTRIBUTION PLAN

Washington. Sept. 5. Development
of n plan whereby "the voice of the
public mny be henrd" In conflicts be
tween employer and empleye, such ns
In the coal situation, wns declared to
day by Secretory Hoever te be "one of
the most vitnl Issues before us."
In a formal statement discussing this
phase of the industrial problem, Mr.
Hoever snld:
"There Is one fundamental lessen
that the public should nb'serb from -the
coal situation, and this lessen can be
derived without discussion of the rights
nnd wrongs of the demands of cither
mine workers or mine operators, or
the incidents tit negotiation In their
settlement. That Is, a four months
suspension of production in the coal
industry, while primarily n eenlllct be
tween employer and employ", brings the
public in ns the lnrgest sufferer.
"The public is the victim of indefinite
less,; unemployment extends from It net
only of the workers in the lnuuniry,
but te hundreds of thousands eutclde
of It; great damnge Is done te com
merce nnd industry ; public health is
jeopardized and a vast wnve of crime
and defiance or the low nes ensued.
Public Has Ne Voice
"Yet the public has no voice In the
negotiations and ennnet express Itself
either .as te the right or wrong of the
matter. The demands of either side
mny be just or unjust, but the largest
sufferer concerned has no representa
tion in the discussion.
"The working out of a plan under
which the public n.ny hnve a rightful
voice in alii of justice and in its own
protection is one of the most vital is
sues before us."
Discussion of means of anthracite
distribution probably wil be taken up
nt a conference here tomorrow, Mr.
Hoever Indicnted.
Iteprcsentntlves of the anthracite op
erators and the Pennsylvania Stnte Fuel
Commission, he snid. are being nsked
te meet with Mr. Spencer, Federal fuel
distributor, nnd ills orgniilntien te
werb out the plnus for handling hard
ion I distribution.
Priorities already in effect under the
Interstate Commerce Commissions'
service order, he stated, give house
holders preference in the shipment of
anthracite, and the main problem new
wus the question of rapid distribution
of hnrd coal as production is resumed.
Seme experts. Mr. Hoever declared,
think that anthracite production will
net nppreach normal in less thnft a
month, but in his opinion he nsserted
anthracite product le will get minder
wa "very quickly."

President Harding. The production of

dicted. ' j
ScnnterIteed said there undoubtedly
would be some radical opposition te the
settlement proposal, but he was certain
It would be approved by n wide mar
gin. Durinc Ills talk with the Prcs-l.tn..,

Wnshlnglnii. Sept. 4. - If Jurlira
Jnmes Wllkersen. of the Federal Dlsi
trict Courts nt Chicago, holds thnt th
temporary restraining order against the
striking railroad shepmen should b
made perninnent. the case will be fought
through the Supreme Court nnd n test
mnde of just whnt the rights of labor
are under the law.
The henrlng before Judge Wllkersen
en the order issued upon the petition of
Attorney General Dougherty will bi
held September 11 and the legal battle
will begin then.
The American Federation of Laber
whose executive council will meet here
Suturday. will Ce the full length n
having the question surrounding the In
junction tested out In the courts.
Officials of the American Federation
of Laber already arc declaring that
that organization will go the limit in
protecting the constitution rights of
the shepmen ns well ns of labor in
general.
While no official statement of thu
plans of the orgnnlzntleti has been given
out. it is the understanding here that
counsel for the federation xvlll bnck
up the shepmen in making the fight be
fore Judge Wllkersen te prevent the re
straining order being made permanent.
If the (.eveiifment Is upheld, how
ever this will be only the bcglnninr
f the legal struggle.
Clayten Act Involved
It Is the understanding thnt the shop shep
men and the federation will in part base'
their case against the preposition of
making the restraining order permanent
en section L'O of the Clayten Act. Able
lawyers in Congress admit thnt it is by
no means n certainty under this section
whether the Government is entitled te
obtain nn injunction ns sweeping n that
for which Attorney General Daugbertr
hns asked.
A secret poll is being made among or
ganized labor lenders throughout the
country en the question of n general
strike, ns a weapon of last resort. If
nil ether means made by luber full te
defeat the terms of the injunction
granted by Judge Wllkersen.
