President Mitchell OF the United
Mine Workers expressed great salts
faction with the report Of the coal
strike commission. The miners also
feel that they have won a decided
victory. Roughly estimated. the 10
per cent increase granted the miners
by the strike commission will amount
TO nearly $4,000, 900. The miners
have worked about 12O days since
November 1. which is above the esti-
mate. The companies say they will
have the accounts of the men ready
by April ! and until that date the
amount cannot be definitely stated.
Because OF abnormal prices for coal,
It is difficult 20 say what advance the
sliding scale will make. There Is no
standard on which to base the calcu.
latlon because Of the increase OF 90
cents a ton made by the big coal com
panies last fall This additional in
crease, II was said. would be effect
i've about April !.
