SEARLES POINTS , OUT DANGER OF HARDUCS MOVE Editor of Miners' Journal Discusses Methods of Getting Coal. OFFERS COUNTER PROPOSAL Chief Executive Is Said to Have Played Into Hands of Anti-Unionists. By ELI.IS SKARLES. Editor United Mine Workers Journal. (Written for tha United News.) WASHINGTON. July 19.—President Harding' has directed the coal operators. whose mines are idle because of the strike of miners, to go hack home and put their mines in operation. This means, of course, that' he advises them to use strikebreakers for that purpose. Therefore, it would appear that the President has definitely allied his Administration with the union-busting employers who are waging a ferocious campaign for the destruction of labor unions in this country. Effort Against Unionism k Among the coal operators to whom Rie gave that advice are found tnose who have been carrying on this destructive effort against trade unionism. Many of them openly boast that they propose either to destroy the miners’ union or cripple it so badly that it cannot function. They pro--s<ose to do this by breaking this strike, if possible, and changing their mines from union to mon-union. Whether President Harding realizes it or not, his instructions to them to return to their homes and operate their mines gives them the very’ encouragement and support that they have been hoping for. They now feel that the Administration is backing them In their fight for the destruction of the union. Os Serious Import to Unions This is a matter of serious import to the entire trade union movement in this country. It makes the miners’ fight the fight of every labor union in the land, for If these union-busting employers were to succeed in their attempt to wipe out the United Mine Workers of America, they would find it an easy task to kill off any and all other unions against which they might feel disposed to direct their batteries. They are employing sound military tactics in striking the line of their adversary at its strongest point, for if they can break the line at that point they can smash the rest of the line with ease. There is a better way to settle this strike, but President Harding apparently has not seen fit to adopt it. This retter plan would be fair to all parties oncerned, the miners, the operator's and the public. And it may well be added that this better plan Is the one that will yet have to be adopted. Should Call In Both Sides Instead of aligning the Administration with the union-busting employers in their campaign for destruction of the miners’ union, the President should call in the operators and the miners, seat them around a table and then say to them: “This thing has gone far enough. It has got to stop right now. I shall expect and I command you men to sit around this table and adjust your differences and reach an agreement that will produce coal. Don’t tell me you will not. The Government says you shall. ” ( Such a conference would result in a perfectly peaceful, orderly settlement. These men would thrash out their differences and. at the end of the conference, everybody would be satisfied and the public would get coal. PLAN ‘BLOCK PARTY’ War Mothers Announce Fete to Be Held July 27 and 28. An announcement has been made of plans for the “block party” to be given by the Indianapolis chapter of American war Mothers, July 27 and 28, in the block between Michigan and St. Clair Sts., on Jefferson Ave. a Music for the dance will be furFnished by Loew’s State orchestra. At the opposite end of the street there will be an old-fashioned fiddle dance for the grown folk. A contest will be held and a prize given to the best oldfashioned fiddler. A concert will be given by the Ft. Harrison Band. There will be a fortune teller and a fish pond. One of the most interesting features will be an old-style country store, such as in the old days, which handled everything from plowshares to poke bonnets. Mrs. A. M.

WHA T THE GOVERNORS SA Y TO HARDING COAL DECLARATION
Governor McCray, Indiana—lndiana will cooperate in every way with the Federal authorities to reopen the mines. The situation is acute. State institutions, public utilities and other agencies in which the people are directly and personally interested are about out of coal, and serious results will follow if coal is not made available without delay. It has now reached a point when the interests of the public must be taken into consideration, and to this end the forces of Indiana will unite with those of the Federal Government.

How to Handle Flowers r. oV. # . § \ ° ° ° °° 6 °°\ •s ra 5 j
By DAN BEARD. National Scout Commissioner. All girls love flowers, especially the dainty, fragile kind that so often lose their importance and much of their individuality when massed tight together or when t placed with other varieties of blossoms. But we really must have these. notwithstanding, and this is the way we can overcome the crowding difficulty. Os heavy stiff cardboard, preferably a soft green In BEARD. color, cut a circular piece large enough to extend all around, and beyond the edges of the glass bowl or vase used for the flowers. Punch holes through the center of the cardboard, Fig. 1, then place it over the top of the bowl of water and insert the blossom stems through the perforated ! card board cover. This will hold the flowers separated allowing each full value. Fig. 2 shows pink clover blossoms arranged In this manner. The bouquet is only partially made, in order to show exactly how to manage the placing of the flowers. Often bottlee and jelly glasses from the grocery make fine substitutes for regular flower vases, as they come In a great variety, all, slender widemouthed, low and so on.

Observe the quiet modesty of the bathb.g gown (gown is the word) of 1875: Full length coat buttoned round the neck, baggy ankle-length trousers, and hat and slippers.

Ohio has adequate means to suppress violence and to enforce and cause all iaws to be observed and obeyed, and the State, as circumstances and conditions require, has used and wilt use such means, adopt such measures and employ such force, civil and military, as may be necessary to effectively preserve order.

center of a low glass bowl gives another kind of bouqeut holder. Fig. 3. Use tall glass bottles for such flowers as the iris, Fig. 4, and with the blossoms have some blades of the green foliage. If possible It is a good plan to always select the style of bouquet holder with regard to the kind of flowers you intend to use. Glass receptables are far preferable to china, for glass shows the sterns as well as the blossoms. Tomorrow: The Possibilities in a Woodpile.

sumed Maine will soon face a real j crisis. Governor Oliver H. Shoup, ColoI ra<lo—The production from the coal J mines of Colorado for the month of ! June was 190,000 tons greater than for j 1921. and I know of no reason why | this favorable condition may not conI tinue. Governor Proul, Pennsylvania i Without taking sides in the contro- ; versy between the coal operators and | miners, we must recognize that a j great public emergency exists and i that a greater one is in prospect. If | active mining is not quickly resumed I widespread unemployment in all industries will soon result The rewards of agriculture will again be dimlni ished and hardships and real sufferi ing will be frit all over the land Such i conditions, affecting the whole people, make the points of controversy between the miners and their men seem trifling In comparison, and I am heartily in accord with the efforts of the President In his endeavor to bring about a speedy settlement As I assured the President yesterday everything will be done by the State of Pennsylvania to uphold his hands In his plans and purposes. It is our duty to do all we can to avert a dangerous crisis which may bring much trouble and perhaps renl disaster in the Republican, and we shall make every effort to protect all in their rights in Pennsylvania. Running Right Along Governor Henry J. Allen, Kansas— In Kansas many of our mines have been running ever since the ooal strike occurred. Today more than two hundred deep shafts are operating and we are producing over 50 per oent of the normal output of coal for the Kansas district and have been for a good many weeks. Every man who desires to work is guaranteed under the industrial court the protection of the State. The sheriff and the county peace officers have no difficulty in enforcing this law and giving protection to these workers. Formerly It was necessary to have troops in the district, but now all trouble has subsided. Alexander Howat, president of the district Federation, together with several of his assistants are now serving a year’s sentence in the county jail of Crawford County for violation of the industrial court ac , The opening of all the other mines in this district will not create any necessity for Federal protection, since the industrial court act guarantees every man who wants to work in an essential Industry the right to work and protects him in that right.

Most of them believe at this time publio sentiment opposes it They fear it would be costly to their political interests to advocate cancellation while the entire country is complaining about high cost of government, high taxes and high cost of living. Cancellation ists argue that practically every cent of the eleven billions loaned the allies by the United States went to licking Germany. Practically all the allies Cialm to be “broke.” Great Britain could pay if she could collect $8,700,000,900 from France, Italy, Russia, Belgium and the others.
