Harding Hears
Workers' Side of
Railway Strike
Sucre of Ffforttt to Remedy
Condition in Doubt I'ntil
After Mdintenauce of
Wav Merlins.
Washington. July 16 (Uy A. P.)
J'rfaidriH Heeding personally in
irmiied in the railroad sinkc itua
linn, but (lie ui'cn oi hi ctlorH
i') remedy' foiiditi'ms. now admitted
ly government olliciaU to be serious,
Hill r ilium undetermined until early
urxt uerk when the officer of the
I'nited brotherhood of Maintenance
"f Way Fuipluvei and Shop La
Ixirrra inrtt in Detroit.
The irridrnt for two hour dis
cussed the strike situation with E. F
lirable, chief of the maintenance of
way riiiloyi organization, who
came to Waihingtuii from Chicago
for the conference, and with Fred
I.. Fcick, executive representative oi
the tame organization.
The results of this conference, as
announced in a White House state
ment, were that the president re
ceived for the first time direct in
formation is to the workers' ride of
the controversy and was afforded
for the first time an opportunity to
present direct to a recognized rep
resentative of the employes the po
sition of the government.
Conference Called.
Another result, announced after
the conference by Mr. Grabte, con
sists of a call for a meeting the first
of next week in Detroit of the grand
officers of the maintenance of way
brotherhood to decide on a policy,
presumably on whether that organi
zation shall continue to withhold the
authorized strike order or. whether it
shall allow its members to join the
striking shopcraft workers.
As indicating the growing serious
, ness of the strike situation, Post
master General Work announced the
inauguration of motor truck trans
portation of mail in Indiana.
Before leaving for Detroit after
announcing the call for a meeting of
nis organization s otticers, Mr. Ora
ble had this, to say as to his confer
ence with the president:
"Our primary reason for seeing the
presment was to impress upon him
the necessity of calling a cojiicrence
between Mr. Jewell and the railroad
executives, in order to stop the spread
of the strike. We feel that this is
the only way to ease the situation,
and l believe it will be efiective.
Situation Acfl'te.
"The situatio.il has become acute
all over the country and we laid be
fore the president a lot of facts, many
of which he said had never come to
his attention. This was the first di
rect protest we have made to Mr.
Harding with the exception of a visit
I made to him three months ago to
discuss the cutting of wages. The
president censured us for not coming
sooner and laying these facts befoie
him."
The chief executive did not indi
cate whether such a conference as
that suggested would be called, Mr.
Grable said. The labor - chieftain
said the president pointed to the re
peated policy of the administration,
that, is a governmental body, the
derisions of the railroad labor board
would be supported by the govern
ment to the limit and that any
change in the law as laid down by
the board was up to cougress.
Mr. Grable expressed dissatisfac
tion that President Harding had not
earlier directed the labor board to
ward, an agreement between the em
ployes and the 'railroads.

Wife of British Admiral Is
Robbed of $10,000 Brooch
Beautiful Bauble of Lady
Deatty Stolen During Func

Marshall Field.
(' rli bl mt.
London, July lo. A senator
over whiih London society has been
buzzing for the last 24 hour and
whiih has eluded the most strenu
ous effort to keep it secret, came
to light when it was announced that
Lady Heatlv. the wife of the British
admiral and formerly Ethel Field of
Chicago, was robbed of a brooch
worth SIO.OM Thursday night.
The beautiful bauble was stolen or
picked up ome time between 10
Thursday night and 3 Friday morn
ing while Lady Ik-atty was attending
a ball given liy Mrs. Marshall Field
at Mall House in honor of Miss
Gwendolyn Field.
There were about 350 guests, in
cluding the prince of Wales, the
duke of York, Lord Louis Mount
batten, who it to be married on
Tuesday, and others, all well known
socially or members of the most ex
clusive set, including a score or more
of Americans.
Officers Combing City.
Two hundred of the most skillful
Scotland Yard detectives, besides
private detectives employed by Tyler
& Co, who Insured Lady Beatty's
jewelry, are scouring the haunts of
crooks in London, hopeful of ob
taining the brooch.
Mall house, the official residence
of Admiral Beatty, was loaned to
Mrs. Marshall Field on the occasion
of presenting Miss Gwendolyn.
Prior to the affair. Lady Beatty
gave a dinner at Hanover i-Odge,
Regent s park.
Lady Beatty drove to the ball with
the Prince of Wales, riding in the
prince's limousine. She wore a whl's
satin brocade dress with Vend
lace embroideries. Just above the
waist belt she wore a fastening a
pearl and diamond cluster brooch.
On entering her limousine with
the admiral at 3 in the morning,
Lady . Beatty discovered that her
brooch was missing. Immediately
she notified the Scotland Yard men
who are detailed to such occasions

Ultimatum to Strikers
(Continued From Pate One.)
sued men have returned to work in
larger numbers, the statement said,
and added that the policy of the
carriers to protect the seniority and
other rights of men who remain at
work has had a beneficial effect. I he
executives, the statement said, will
accept any modifications of its de
cisions that the labor board makes
after hearings. "They cannot, how
ever, agree to any conference with
representatives of strikers, the
statement continued, "because the
very purpose for which such con
ference is sought by representatives
of strikers, as avowed by B. M.
Jewell, is to procure a settlement
contrary to ' the decisions of the
board, and for the railroads to agree
to this would be to undermine the
dignity and influence of the board,
just as the unions are trying to do
by this strike.
"The facts ' show clearly," the
statement concludes, "that the ex
ecutives of the railways have shown
willingness to do everything that is
reasonable to end the strike, while
Mr. Jewell has indicated that only
by the railways surrendering to his
demands and disregarding the de
cisions of the labor board can it be
ended. This leaves) responsibility
for continuance of the strikes solely
upon the leaders of the strikers."
Agreement Reached.
St. Paul, July 16. Only the re
fusal of easter.n railroads to reinstate
striking shopcrafts workers with their
full seniority rights is preventing a
settlement of the strike, as far as
the northwest roads are concerned,
declared R. A. Henning, general
chairman of the federated shopcrafts
of the northwest, in a statement.
Mr. Henning said an agreement
virtually had been concluded with the
northwest roads to return to work
pending adjustment of certain dis
puted points, including wages, but
that there could be no settlement ex
cept on a national basis.
"The raeji in this district will stick
to the finish," said Mr. Henning.
Guards Protect Mails.
New York, July 16. Final reports
of sabotage on railroads in the New
York district caused federal authori
ties to deputize 200 guards for the
mails, and prepare to arm 1,000 oth
ers. United States marshals in New
York and northern New Jersey were
authorized by Attorney General
Daugherty to "go as far as neces
sary" in keeping interstate traffic
dear. Reports of attempts to dam
age locomotives on the Lackawanna
and instances where whole freight
trains were held up by slashed air
brake connections, suprred govern
ment officials to recruit deputies for
strategic points on all of the 1 1 mail
carrying lines entering tf-e city.
Deputies were instructed: "Re
member, you are not supposed to
protect railroad property all along
the lines. Your job, is to see that
United States mail and interstate
trains are not interfered with."
Official statements covering the
two weeks of strike were issued by
the New York Central. Pennsyl
vania, Lackawanna and New Haven
roads. Each set forth the roads were
handling more traffic than during
the same period last year and were
maintaining service without delay to
passengers, mail or freight.
Alleged Check Artist
Lodged in Bluffs 'Jail
Roy Doffner, 22, was arrested at
Dedham. Ia., and lodged in the
county jail at Council Bluffs yester
day on the charge of passing a worth-!
less check for $30 to Al Bernstein,
proprietor of a Bluffs garage, who
made a long country drive with Doff
ner and received the check in pay
ment for his services. The youth
admitted passing the bad paper and
told the county attorney th-t he has;
no money to redeem it. He was re

to look after royalty and other titled
guests.
The sleuths- privately identified ail
the guests still present but about 100
had already left Mall House.
When detectives learned of the
theft they suggested that search be
made of everybody present. Horri
fied at the suggestion, Lady Beatty
pointed out that the prince oi Wales
the duke of York and scores of
other nobles were present. She in
sisted it was impossible to take such
drastic measures and stated she pre
ferred to lose her jewelry. , .
It wa decided that it would not
be possible to search the other
guests if the nobility was exempted
through fear of scandal and indig
nant protests from official circles.

THE OMAHA BEE: MONDAY, JULY 17. 1922.
Miners Rcjeet
Harding's Plan
for Arbitration
IVum Official! Notify Presi
dent of Refusal of Proposal
to End Strike Await Re
ply of Operator.
Washington, July 16, I It v A. P.)
Coal mine workers, whose walkout
. in the anthracite region and strike in
; the unionized bituminous lit'Uls has
: crippled the nation's coal production
! since April 1. Ilatly refused, through
i t lie oflicrrs' and committeemen of
: their union, to submit their griev-
; mice to arbitration under terms sug
'Bested bv President Harding.
They notified the president of their
: de termination, received a response
j mentioning the responsibility they
had assumed, and adjourned the ses
, sion of their central controlling com
niittec, holding its members in the
i citv, however, until Monday.
Only a White House statement, to
the effect that nothing would be done
until Monday, when the bituminous
employers are expected to respond to
the same arbitration proposal, was
available to indicate the government's
future policy. Anthracite operators
have formally accepted the presi
dent's plan, but bituminous employ.
ers are known to be divided. It was
intimated that at least one section
of them would, in addition to accept
ing conditionally the arbitration pro
nosals. tender their mines to the gov
ernment for operation, control or
other disposition.
Expected to Refuse.
One group in Pennsylvania is ex
pected to refuse the arbitration pro
posal and to continue to operate
mines, notwithstanding the strike,
while the Ohio, Illinois and Indiana
operators are still discussing their
olans.
The last general meeting of the
employers in the bituminous industry
will be held here Sunday evening.
Saturday's proceedings of the
policy committee of the United Mine
Workers of America with liv odd
union spokesmen attending, went
forward like clockwork on the pfl
laid down bv lohn L. Lewis, presi
dent of the union, and other nationat
officers and plainly forecast on the
previous day.
Recounting the history of his ne
gotiations with the government and
the employers ajid expressing his dis
satisfaction with the terms of the
arbitration offer. Mr. Lewis, in ex
ecutive session, offered a lengthy let
ter of refusal of the arbitration and
moved its adoot'on.
Delegate after delegate, behind the
closed doors of the executive session,
cave his views and Tames L. Lord,
vice president of the American Feder
ation of Labor, in cnarge 01 nie
mining division of the cetitral body,
sat with them. lhe vote ui tne end
for the adoption of the latter was
unanimous.
A committee then took the letter
to the White House and saw the pres
ident briefly.
The scale committee of the union
for the anthracite miners, at an earlier
meeting, refused to accept the ar
bitration offer, but joined with the
general policy committee de'ibera-
tions.
For substantial reasons, the rep
resentatives of the United Mine
Workers are compelled to withheld
their acceptance of the arbitiatipn
proposals submitted by you," the let
ter to the president said.
"The mine workers desire to point
out that the coal operators who have
been in attendance at the recent con
ferences assembled by you, and to
whom you have submitted the plan
for arbitration of the coal strike, are
only oartially representative of the
producing interests. Operators rep
resenting nearly SO per cent of the
tonnaee in strike fields where pro
duction is stopped, have not been in
attendance and we have no informa
tion that the orooosed plan of arbi
tration has been submitted to them
by any governmental agency.
Settlement utile.
"We are further advised that these
nterests have no intention of com
ing within the purview of the pro
visions of your plan of adjustment.
Under such circumstances, it is fu
tile to believe any general settlement
can be made. It is manifestly unfair
to attempt to exact from the mine
workers representative committee
men an arbitration plan, while at the
same time powerful operating inter
ests, employing hundreds of thou
sands of men now on strike, are left
free to follow their own selfish im
pulses and escape liability in the
premises. Even' the acceptance of
the plan would by the mine workers
bring about only a partial settle
ment."
This was the crux of the opposition
to arbitration, Mr. Lewis and national
officers, in conference with the pres
ident and cabinet members, having
openly demanded during the past ,
week that semi-unionized fields in
West Virginia, partially producing in
spite of the strike, and former non
union districts in Pennsylvania, par
tially closed down by the strike, as
well as scattered territory in Wash- j
ington state and elsewhere, be forced
by the government to take arbitra
tion. The president has been under
stood to have responded that the
government could not force such a
compliance.

May modify the origins! proposal but
will serve to clarify such doubts of

The text of President Hardina'i
communication to coal operator and
union men follows:
To A. M. Ogle, president of the
national coal association:
' To S. D. Warringer, president of
the Anthracite Coal association,
and
Jhon L. Lewis, president of the
L lined Mine Workers of America:
Since 1 tendered to you in a joint
session at the executive offices on
Monday, July 10, certain proposals
for the arbitration of the coal dis
pute and since there have been nu
merous mouiries and several nitor-
ma! conferences in the intervening
time, aimed at clearer understand
ing, I have thought it desirable to
place before you, in writing, such
interpretations on the general pro
posal as I have sought informally
and in vernal statements to convey
These definite interpretations do
jiot in any way modify the original
proposal, but will serve to clarify
such doubts of construction as have
been expressed and leave no possi
bility of misunderstanding.
Three Stages.
The program contemplates three
successive stages as ioiiows;
First. That the mine workers re
turn to work under the same terms
and conditions as those which gov
erned each case on last March 31.
This includes the check-off.
Second: It is the intent that the
temporary arrangements above
shall remain yi force, only during
the shortest period that may be
required for a determination of
terms and conditions of labor for
the period endung March 1, 1923. I
have emphasized this by suggesting
that the wage scale shall de de
termined by August 10, 1922, with
authority in the commission to ex
tend that period by such number
of days as may be required.
Its earliest determination is
very necessary in order that con
tracts and estimates involved in
business transactions may become
settled and it is understood that
all questions of dispute as to con
ditions of labor or any other
points of friction between opera
tors and employes who are parties
to this arrangement shall be de
termined by the commission, and
such settlement shall hold until
the first of March, 1923. These
decisions may also require more
time tha nuntil August 10, and
.therefore the commission is to
have authority to extend the time
for settlement of each or any of
these questions as it finds to be
necessary.
Proposals Not Binding.
Third: That the commission, in
recommending an establishment
for maintenance of industrial peace
in the coal industry, will be expect
ed to bring in such recommenda
tion in time to allow tor their use
in the settlement of relations aft
er the first of March, 1923. They
are to be recommendatory and not
binding.
The president will ask of con
gress as soon as the house is re
convened, in August, for a grant
to the commission of the -necessary
legal powers to make an exhaustive
inquiry into the coal industry in
order to acquire the needed in
formation upon which to formu
late plans to avoid future suspen
sion of production.
In order to clarify what shall
constitute a commitment to the
plan I have proposed let it be
understood that, as to the bitumin
ous fields, the basis of agreement
in national disputes has hitherto
been agreements between the
United Mine Workers with oper
ators in the central competitive
fields. Therefore, the acceptance
of this offer by the United Mine
Workers and by the operators
shall be deemed complete and
binding when United Mine Work
ers and the operators, parties to
the central competitive field agree
ment, which expired on March 31,
have accepted it. The other
bituminous mines, which are now
idle because of strike or suspend
ed operation are expected to ad
here to the plan and comply with
the decisions of the commission,
but their action in no way affects
the validity of the agreement to
the plan.
Effective on Acceptance.
In the anthrocite fields the ac
ceptance of this offer, by the United
Mine Workers on one side and the
anthracite operators on the other,
shall render it effective. It tne
mine workers and operators agree
there shall be a separate commis
sion. It is understood that all decisions
by the commission must be
reached by a majority vote thereof
and all decisions shall be binding
to all parties to the agreement un
til March 1. 1923. (Signed)

on order at it it wanted. He gets
his product onre a rar and hi the
weight of it all on his hands at one
time. Iff needs storage and credit
t a cost that will not rat him up.
And it is true that a banking sys
tem primarily sdapted to arrve lmi
nets and nunuucturiiig, the needs of
which are constant, imperfectly
nerves the farmer, whose needs are
sudden and seasonal.
Hut let lit. fdison express some
of his ideas in epigrammatic form:
"I want to ct the variable out of
money."
"Stability! That's what t want.
There's no Ksin from instability ex
cept for the speculator and what
happens to them? When I had
charge of the Wall street ticker and
indicators in the time of Jay Gould
and" "Black Friday" 1 saw what
happened to them. If one had a
stroke of apoplexy lie might die
rich."
No "Money Power."
"1 don't believe there i any such
thing as a 'money power.' There is
the power of money."
"When a bank sells its credit for
so much per cent, that is not interest.
That's a charge for a certain service.
But when a man puts his wealth in
bonds, ceases to produce anything
and lives abroad on his income
that's interest."
"Why shouldn't a bank make IS
per cent or more? I make more if
I can. A bank takes risks. It has to
gamble. It creates a great volume
of credit, puts its capital and sur
plus behind it and then bets it will
all he paid."
, "When I propose to issue money
against the basic necessaries of life,
up to only half their average value
for a quarter of a century, the finan
cial editor of a New York money
paper says:
"In a Rut."
"Why, that's fiat money.' Well,
billions of money are now issued
against, commercial paper, Liberty
bonds and stock exchange collateral,
impalpable things you can't eat or
wear. What's that? He's in a rut.
"I've been thinking on this sub

"Any man who has been 10 years
in banking is unable to see a new

"You would be surprised to know
how many people are out and out
greenbackers think the government
should just print money as its
wanted. ,
"This gold money is not good
enough. It's a fiction.
' I wouldn t issue money on land.
Land isn't worth anything. It's what
you get 'from land.
Security for Money.
"The .secretary of the treasury
said to me: 'What! Give the govern
ment's credit to the farmers for noth
ing?' I said: 'You're not giving them
anything. This piece of stationery I
ask you to print won't be worth any
thing .until the fanners put their
commodities behind it. When the
government issues money with noth
ing behind it but promises to pay,
then it is issuine its own credit. You
ought to charge well for that.'
'Maybe fiat money would work
all right if you could limit. But you
can't. Money has got to be self-

And, urge each big and little family member to

Kellogg's Corn Flakes are not only delicious
in crispness and flavor, but they're wonderfully
nourishing and refreshing. They give stomachs
a chance to rest in warm weather because they
digest so easily. Eat Kellogg's regularly and get

and see how much better every
