TRIDAY, JULY 21, 1922. THE OREGON . DAILY JOU RNAL, PORTLAND, OREGON. SENATORS VISIT iimiTr unnor L I1UU0L ifim ON STRIKE SiTUATON - By. DnM Lawrtm ; .Copynht. 1922. by The Journal) Washington, July 21. United States , senators are getting restless and anx ious over the industrial situation. Sev eral them flocked to the White Hobm today to find out if legislation could cure the trouble and bring peace. Others told Mr. Harding that if there was going to be any allocating of coal they wanted to Imow about it Senator Lodge, Republican leader, said for instance, that he hoped to see. that New England. -would get Us share. The- situation has reached a point where the effect of continued indus trial warfare may be felt in the politi cal campaign. The department of commerce issued a significant state ment saying that the rising tide of business recuperation was being ar rested by the rail and coal strikes. The Republican party has much to lose this fall if conditions approaching their campaign pledges are not rea lized by the rank and file. SEE TROUBLE AHEAD Many ofihe Republican leaders , know how close the connection is be tween industrial peace and political - success next autumn. Senator James Watson of Indiana came to the White House with Senator Cummins and the net effect of their visit was a de termination to reason with the rail executives and see if they wouldn't waive the single obstacle that stands in the way of agreement, namely, a restoration of seniority rights to the men who return. The word "has gone out that the Northwestern roads are ready to settle and that many of the Southern roads . would do likewise. The Eastern ex ecutives ire unyielding. Will they put the Republican party in a hole by pro longing the strike beyond the point of political safety? There always has been an affinity between the railroads and the Repub licans here and the latter now are try 1 ing to see whether their influence counts for a-nything. . HABDI5G WAITING Scarcity of coal for next winter is making senators apprehensive. If the house of representatives were in ses sion there would be incessant pilgrim ages from the capitol to the White House of house members. As it is the senate reflects the general Uneasiness which is felt throughout the country over the industrial situation. The president is listening to what the senators tell him, but as for ra tioning of coal that is somewhat pre mature. Senator Kellogg didn't seem to think much coal would be mined un less the strike was settled at once. The White House is waiting to see what effect the invitation to the operators to resume operations will have on the amount of coal mined. Several days may elapse before an other move is made. WOULD SEIZE MIXES Some senators, like Pomerene of Ohio, are inclined touhink the federal government could seize the coal mines and operate them until the emergency is past. -Other constitutional lawyers doubt it, There it no question, how ever, that " the states can sise ' the mines and with the aid of the federal government arrange- for regulation of interstate shipments. ' These moves are largely academic as yet, for until definite figures are available on coal production in the i next : 10 days no arasuc course wiu be adopted. The rail situation gives better prom ise of a settlement. - Pressure by in dividual senators on t astern rail ex ecutives undoubtedly would be fol lowed by persuasive arguments from quarters influential with the railroads just as soon as the danger of a con tinued tie-up Is fully realised. FEAB BBIAXVOWH While the executives protest condi tions are fairly good, officials here do not share that, optimism and rather fear a general breakdown of the trans portation system of the country un less peace is f peedlly obtained. The decision bf the circuit court of appeals in Chicago upholding the rights of the United States labor board, was welcomed here as a step forward and one which would probably make roads like the Pennsylvania see the necessity of obeying the United States labor board lest the confidence of the railway employe in the board's power be adversely affected. More legislation at this time U un likely. The settlement, when it does come, will be along the line of making the present legislation respected. The transportation act provided that ad justment boards be set -up in various regions. The railroads have by one move or another delayed the establishment of the boards. 'Dilatory moves have caused a loss of faith. On top of this the railway employes have flouted the power of the labor board to ' ad just wages when the main purpose of the transportation act was to have an impartial tribunal to fix wages. The solution lies in making the de cisions of the labor board respected and officials here are not yet ready to believe this impossible. 'Plane Forced to Land; No One Is Hurt Wires Denby Washington, July 21. (I. N. S.) "Airplane made forced landing. No one hurt." That was the reply today of Secre tary of the Navy Denby to the dte patch of Acting Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt inquiring for details of th accident over the great wall of China, in which Denby was reported to have barely escaped serious injury. Denby'B cable, sent yesterday from Tien Tsln, added that details of the accident had been cabled to Secretary of State Hughes by Jacob Gould Schurmaiv.
