Warning that the fed eral government would tolerate no use of violence to prevent coal production during the threatened coal strike wns ssued Thursday by Attorney General Dougherty. Washington. Labor will drain Its treasuries and fight to the last ditch to protect and provide relief for the 600,000 ooal miners scheduled to walk out April 1, if that is found necessary, James Lord, head of the American Federation of Labor mining department, predicted here Thursday. Union labor considers the present coal situation one of the roost important industrial battles In Its history. Lord, in an exclusive Interview with the United Press, charged : Wall street is financing tha strike and wants It. The uncompromising attitude of the operators reveals their decision to flrce a suspension of work. The whole matter Is an operators' conspiracy to raise coal prices and hoodwink the public. Cleveland A possible serious break In the ranks of the United Mine Work ers threatened to disrupt the organ ization as the members of the mine here for policy committee gathered their opening sessions. The commit tee of 116 members was called to formulate plans for conducting the mine tieup, scheduled to start at mid night March 31. Possibility of a split was seen by union leaders In the threat of Frank Farrlngton, president of the Illinois district, that he and his followers would Insist upon single state wage negotiations with operators, strongly opposed by International officers of the miners. Privately it was stated In some that Farrington's demands quarters ore based largely on questions of internal union policy. The Illinois lead er assailed Lewis personally for what was termed "premature" calling of the strike. Farrlngton believed this order should have been withheld. Nevertheless, Farrington's proposed stand is not regarded lightly because of the large following he controls, the Illinois district being tha largest In tha union.

What would happen to It there was regarded as problematical, but house proponents proposed to use every effort to prevent It from being shelved, as was the original bonus measure. Iu a long debate which preceded the final vote in the house, some speakers predicted that the senate would kill the bill, while others apparently were as to the chances not of its passage in Its present form, whatever its ultimate fate, it appeared fairly certain that the bill would slum her for quite a wlille at the other end of the Capitol, where already the cal endar is congested with treaties and annual supply bills with the perman ent tariff bill yet to be reported. There were those who believed that the senate finance committee, to which the bill would be referred in the nat ural course, would make Sharp chunges iu it. Some administration, officers were known to look to the senate to pass a measure providing means for financing the bonus, but they were a t prepared to predict whether the means would be taxes or the use of foreign honds. President Harding has been represented as looking wl'h favor on the financing of the legislation with refunded .foreign bonds provided they were in hand before the bill was pass-ad. While the measure was In the making by the house ways and means committee, the executive, according to some members of that committee, suggested a delay of 90 days In the belief that the treasury would then be In possession of some of the British bonds. There was some discussion In the house Thursday as to whether the president would approve the bill In its present form, with a conflict In the Kepresentatlv opinions expressed. Lonsworth, Republican, Ohio, said tint while he would not presume to speak for the executive, he had reason to be lieve that Mr. Harding would sign th house measure If It reached him with out change. On the other hand, Itep- resentatlve Snyder, Itepuhilcan, New York, who an Id he had talked with Mr. Harding last week, declared he would be "exceedingly surprised" If the exe cutive signed !L FAILING TO TAKE STAND AGAINST ACTS IN ULSTER Companies of Nation Weather Yean of Industrial Depression; Outlook for Early Resumption of Work Is Much Brighter Anonymous Body Warns That Alleged Tactics Followed in Belfast Will Be Pursued on Free Chicago. The copper mining In dustry found 1021 fraught with difficulties, but conditions have improved In the lust few months nnd still better times He ahead, according to Si mon Guggenheim, president of the American Smelting & Refining company, who, on Monday Issued his annual report to the stockholders. "One main factor iu the year's poor showing Is the extremely small pro duction of copper, nine and tin," Mr. Guggenheim says. "Hence the smelt ing and refining of these metals haw never reached so depressed a stage. 'Whatever else may be said of 1921 it at least seems to have marked the turning point toward recovery from the extreme depression In the nonfer- rous metal Industry which followed the war. The first part of the year was especially unprofitable, but every quarter showed Improvement over the preceding one. This . was especially true of each of the last two quarters. "There are many signs of Improve ment for the current year's business. The worst of the period of readjustment Is now behind us, the large copper mines will probably start In operation at no very distant date, which will give tonnage for our copper smelt ers and refineries; already one of our zinc smelters has resumed operations political conditions in Mexico are better than they have been at any time since 1913 ; our properties and organizations continue In excellent oondltion ; earnings have improved, and there Is good reason to believe that a condition of progress toward normal will, continue until the full pre-wa-r earnings are again made." The earnings record for 1921 attests the difficulties of last year. Total Income from sales of metals amount ed to $130310,592. a decrease of from 1920. After all expenses, Interest and taxes, there was a balance of $1,591,908, compared with Belfast.

"On and after March 29," adds the notice, "lor every Catholic man, woman, boy, girl or child murdored or maltreated, so also shall the same quantity of iielpers of the systematic murder of our fellow Catholics meet the same fate."

The convention of Irish republican army members, which had been forbidden by the Dall Klreann cabinet, ended its lengthy session lata Sunday night without exciting any out ward demonstration. The provisional free state government nmde no attempt to Interfere with Hie proceedings and has not definitely stated it will take any action, although it Is generally supposed that those who attended will be treated as having separated themselves from tha rest of the army and their names may possibly be stricken from Ui army rolls. The action of the convention In unanimously adoptiug a resolution to affirming the delegates' allegance to the Irish republic met with strong supporters of the free state. The Irish Independent said : 'Many times in the past have or peole become divided in a crisis, when unity was essential. Monday we witness the same unedifying, deplorable spectacle. Disunion has been forced on the country. The resolution-passeconvention by the sectional amounts to repudiation of the Dall Klreann, yet Eanion de Valera insisted that the Dall ia the supreme authority in Ireland. 'In all democratically governed countries, including republics like Frnnc and America, the army is strictly subject to tlie control of civil authority or the government for the time being.
