M ichael collins and hi* pro visional government of the Irish Free State are faring a critical situation and It Is a debatable question whether they will survive officially. Thi* despite the fact that the British government Is assembling large bodies of troops to go to their support In case of necessity. It Is believed De Valera and the radical repnbllcans are planning the establishment of a military dictatorship, and continuous raids and outrages by republican bands lend support to this belief. Slorders. ambushes and seizures of arms are of dally occurenct. and In northwest Ireland It Is said large districts which had supported tbe Free State have gone ore* to the republican camp.

In Kansas tbe industrial court ordered that the preser: wage agreement be continued for thirty days, and the Southwestern Coal Operators' association agreed to this. The operators declare that tbe ultimate goal of the union miners Ir the nationalization of the coal Industry, and of course they oppose this, though they are not able to confute tbe assertion that She industry Iz. as Secretary Hoover says, one of the worst functioning Industries In tbe country. It Is always In a chaotic condition, a* regards both prediction and distribution. When Pres dent Lewis went before tbe house committee to present the case of the strikers, he said the miners could see no permanent solution c* their difficulties without nationalization of the coal mine*. But question* brought out that while he would favor the establishment of a governing board to bring about stabilization of the Industry, controlling the production, distribution and price of cool, he would oppose the erection of a tribunal with power to fix wages. Naturally he did not get far with such a one-sided proposition.
