Harding uses moral suasion on coal industry to curb profiteering
Washington May 19 President Harding and the cabinet vowed to apply moral suasion to the coal industry to prevent profiteering during the strike. Attorney General Daugherty said the government has no legal means to stop price rises, while Commerce Secretary Hoover won agreement from 50 operators representing 1,500 non union companies to revive a modified form of the war fuel administration.
