E. Clark, the head of the Brother- hood of Railway Conductors. He called him, how- ever, an "eminent sociologist," adding in his announcement of the appointment this explana- tion: "For the purposes of such a Commission, 118 THEODORE ROOSEVELT the term sociologist means a man who has thought and studied deeply on social questions and has practically applied his knowledge." The Commission as finally constituted was an admirable one. Its report, which removed every menace to peace in the coal ind...ustry, was an out- standing event in the history of the relations of labor and capital in the United States. But the most interesting and significant part of Roosevelt's relation to the great coal strike con- cerned something that did not happen. It illus- trates his habit of seeing clearly through a situa- tion to the end and knowing far in advance just what action he was prepared to take in any con- tingency that might possibly arise. He was de- termined that work should be resumed in the mines and that the country should have coal.
