James Lord Tells City Club'
Public Should Inform Self
of Coal Situation.
'speaking to the members of the City
Club at their forum luncheon yester
day. James Lord, director of the min
ing department of the American Fed
eration of Labor, discussed the "Coal
Strike Threat?Labor's Side," and he
declared that if the public suffers
from It, It Is only because the public
refuses to Inform Itself or the condi
tions In the mining Industry.
"The facts are all available Sid
they show conclusively that the '-ne
teason which Is bringing on ih 4
strike Is the refusal of the oper?.tors
to carry out tliolr part of the i?esent
wage agreement, which oall? for a
joint meeting to arrange a n?? agree
ment." lie said. "In spit? of re
peated offers of the unions U> meet
ithe operators for this purpose, up to
this day the operators hav? refufced to
: enter such a meeting. Th a Is the sit
! uatlon and this is the t<;?e for public
opinion to act.
Public Sitting Back.
"For twenty yeara this method of
joint agreement has kept peace "l
the soft coal industry, and now whfle
the public sits back the operators are
'allowed to flout this method?the only
peaceful method?and to tear up the
agreement tliey have made. If the
miners strike, it will be only to en
force this method of collective bar-'
gaining.-*
At larking the operator*' plea for
restoration of interstate competition
as the reason for their refusal. Mr.
Lord said that it was Just such com
petition which reduced operators to
bankruptcy and miners to desperation
III 1S98 and thus led to the first Joint
agreement between miners and own- ?
erg.
Old Attempt Renewed.
The operators' action. Mr. Lord said. |
"was simply an extension of their at
tempt In 1!>1? to take advantage of I
the Lever act to evade the same obll-f
gation to make u new wage agree
ment."
C. C. Calhoun, who presided, an
nounced that the forufn speaker next
week would he George H. fushing.
director of the American Wholesale i
<"'oal Association, who would present I
the operators' side of the question. 1

POLICE PROBING THREAT
AGAINST POLISH LEGATION
Officials of the State Department ]
yesterday afternoon sought the aid of '
the local police In the investigation j
of the letter received by Senator i
Frank L. Willis of Ohio yesterday j
from Cleveland. Ohio, containing a J
threat to bomb the Polish legation in
this city and numerous Polish con
sulates throughout .the country.
Capt. William S. Shelby was told by
a representative of the State Depart
ment that the federal government
wanted only the necessary precau
tions against possible damage to the '
legation at 3147 16tn street taken.
Capt. C. P. M. Lord of the tenth pre
cinct, in which precinct the legation
is located, visited the legation and
saw a representative of the minister.
The representative had heard nothing
of the receipt by Senator Willis of
the threatening letter, and said even
If such a letter had been sent It would
cause him no alarm.
Two policemen were detailed at the
legation throughout the night, but
this morning they reported that noth
ing unusual had occurred. It Is the
intention of Maj. Sullivan, superin
tendent of police, to retain the special
guard at the legation indefinitely.
