tion with these appointments.
Another rumor is' that Rev. J. O.
Rowe will go from the . Salisbury dis
trict to the pastorate of Central
church. Mount Airy. The Salisbury
and North Wllkeslioro districts are
the ouly districts in the conference to
receive new presiding elders as the
Ijesnlt of the time-limit. But this does
not guarantee tnat no otner uistrici
will receive a new presiding elder.

SECRETARY LANSING
NOT AT.' MEETING
Confined to His Home With
a'Severe Gold. Secretary
Glass Is Presiding at the
Meeting.
(r The AaMelatea Press.)
Washington, Oct. 23. President
Wilson today through Secretary 'lu-
multy, summoned his cabinet in spec-
si session, to consider the strike at
the coal miiH'i-s set for next Saturday.
Director Oeneral Iliues, of the rail
road administrator, was asked to
meet with the rabluet to present the
situutlou from the standpoint of the
railroads.
Secretary lousing was confined to
his home with a cold and could not at
tend. All other meiulers of the Presi
dent's official family were present,
and Secretary Glass presided. Secre
tary Tumulty was present to convey
the views of President Wilson on the
situation.
As they entered the white house
the cabinet members declined to make
any forecast. Some members, however.
were said to hold the belief that
tearn measures were necossury In
the face of the grave industry situa
tion existing over the country.
One phase of the situation which
most Mtiicials had hi mind was that
of the cosa of coal to the public dur
ing the threatened strike. It was
said that the fair price committee
working with Attorney Oeneral Palmer
to reduce the prices, probably would
add coal to their list of commodities
Officials said the Department of Justice
would not undertake to set national
price for coal because of the differ
ence between mining costs and freight
rates, Imt that the difference wouki
Lewis, presidcut of the Mine tworkers
ii,wm
of America sent word to the unions
throughout the country that work, in
the mines would stop next Friday. -
Lewis said' the strike would last
"until the government was uble-to in
duce coal operatori to deal humanly
with the men sVho mine the coal."
"And one man's guess Is as good .is
another's on that," he added. N
To Work Out Definite Program.

gram to be placed before President
Wilson us to governments attitude to
ward strike wit be formulated by the
cabinet til eveulHg It wais said at
the whte house.
While no definite decision has been
taken when the cabinet recessed fol
lunch, Secretary Tumulty asld the
discussiou at the morning session dis
closed that the President's . official
family was of one mind,, and "not a
bit wobbly.'' He added that when thv
program was presented to the Presi
dent, Mr. Wilson was expected to make
public statement. i
