Arbitration scheme to end coal strike proposed by operators
Washington and Philadelphia dispatches describe operators agreeing to form a presidentially appointed commission to settle disputes with coal workers. The panel includes an army or navy engineer, a non affiliated mining engineer, a U.S. district court judge, a sociologist, and a mining expert. Miners would return to work as the commission schedules, and non union men would face no interference. Reports from Washington and New York outline Morgan Baer and others traveling to discuss the plan, with Secretary Root and Cortelyou preparing a press statement. Governor Odell of New York expresses optimism a settlement is near.
