D. C March 9. Secretary of Labor Davis today urged mine operators and the miners' union, in the name of common sense, to get together and save the country from the costly results of a strike. "The government has no desire to interfere unduly," he announced, "but has a duty to safeguard the interests of the people who would be seriously af fected by the suspension of coal mining." Although no immediate responses were received at the secretary's of fice after the statement was issued. . press dispatches immediately reflect d the interest taken in it by repre eentatives of unions and operators in the country's widespread coal fields. Official reports to the department, however, were concerned largely with details concerning the dissen sion in the miners' organization, where Frank Farrington, the Illinois leader, and some other district heads are said to be beginning local nego tiations in defiance of the policy of John L. Lewis, president, and the na tional executive board of the- United Aline Workers of America. Strike Reports Discounted. The department's agents have been assured that the miners' locals in nearly all sections throughout union tfields are "overwhelmingly voting to etrike April 1," but this information has been discounted to a degree, offi cials said, because a strike vote is Quite often taken so that committees assigned to negotiate the issues can act with fullest authority. There was no disposition in offi cial circles today to conceal that Mr. Davis statement which explained again the government's position, was one result of the repeated refusal of Pennsylvania and other mine opera tors in the central competitive field to enter negotiations looking to an other national wage agreement. The union, it was pointed out here, has sought this course from the begin ning and the operators have been un yielding in opposition,! though will ing in some cases to make local or district contracts with the union Statement Is Issued. The statement as issued by the Je partment of labor said. "Secretary Davis is now in direct communication with representatives of the coal operators of the central competitive field. It is his earnest de sire that both miners and operators carry out the spirit and intent of the resolution adopted at the ew York conference of March, 1920, which pro vided for a preliminary conference to meet prior to April 1, 1922, to arrange a time and place for a meeting to take up and consider the making of a new agreement. "The secretary's action is heartily approved by President Harding. None -of the government officials in touch with the threatened coal situation can see any objection to a council table gathering of those directly interested in the bituminous coal inquiry, and particularly in the present situation when it is a part of the last agree ment, and in line with long-time prac tice in the coal industry. Joint meet ings such as those of the anthracite operators and miners called for New York city, March 15, give to each side an opportunity to go into every phase of the disputed factors, and can only result in better understanding. "The course suggested by Secretary Davis is only an expression of the earnest conviction of the public, as Is evidenced by scores of editorials in the leading newspapers of the coun try, that until such meeting is held in accordance with a previous under standing the two sides of the coal situation have not discharged the ob ligations resting upon them. "The government has no desire to Interfere unduly, but not only having the interests of the employers and em ployes in mind, it also has a duty to safeguard the interests of the people who will be seriously affected by the suspension of coal mining. Secretary Davis cannot see why, in the interests of common sense, the two sides to the coal controversy, cannot get together and adjust their differences, and save the country from the costly results of a strike." : Aberdeen Company Inspected.
