FULL OF ADVICE. HARDING AWAITS COURSTOF ACTION Cabinet Meeting May Plan Future Strike Policy of Administration. RECEIVERSHIP IS COSTLY- \ ______ Expense of Railroads During War Recalled by Plan of Court Action. By ROBERT J. BEXDER United Xetca Staff Correspondent. WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.—Accelerated importation of foreign coal to care for the eastern seaboard; diversion of eastern coal to hard-pressed middle and northwestern States; cooperation of industries not vitally needing coal—and a period of probation for coal operators and rail executives. This, in a word, is the counsel given President Harding by those operators, rail executives. Industrial leaders and some members of his official family, who are willing—and anxious—to let the two great national strikes go through to a finish fight. Harding conferred with Chairman Tasker of the shipping board, and terics with Secretary Hoover. Thursday. preparatory to launching a full discassioa of the strike situation before his Cabinet Friday. Official Hint of Action The only other development was an official hint of another possible course of "drastic action” implied in the assertion of a high official that the President had emergency authority to place both railroads and mines under a Federal receivership, get the men back to work on new contracts and later turn the properties back after the emergency had passed. The cost of such a venture, however, •would be tremendous, as evidenced by the great sums the Government has been compelled to pay back to the roads, growing out of Federal operation during the war. Conviction of Advisers It is the growing conviction of Harding’s senatorial advisors, that he will permit both situations to "simmer along” for some days to see whether coal can be produced and the railroads can be efficienly operated under the strike conditions. Meantime, officials supporting the President’s course, in hesitating to take "drastic action” repeatedly suggested. declare: 1. That the United States Government is the poorest equipped of any government in the world for handling any emergency save that of war. 2. That any drastic action—including the priority coal shipping plan authorized by the Interstate Commerce Commission —that the Government might undertake without further empowering legislation from Congress, would hang on a "dangerously slender legal thread.’* COAL ACTION DELAYED Governors Decide t-o Wait Result of Cleveland Conference. After several hours of deliberation on the coal situation. Governors McCray, Groesbeck of Michigan and Davis of Ohio, and Lieutenant Governor Thurston Ballard of Kentucky and other visiting State officials decided to postpone definite action until after the conference of operators and miners in Cleveland next Monday. If this interstate conferences fails to produce satisfactory results, a meeting of Governors of all coal mining States will be held In Columbus, Ohio.
