Scranton, May Ton the advice OF
President Mitchell. representing the
subscale comitte, the miners conven
ton today unanimously voted to adopt
the first proposition of the operators
a continuation Of the award of the
anthracite coal commission, with the
modification that the term for which
it is to continue shall be mutually
agreed upon.
The operators suggestion that il
should be at least three years. The &C
ton of the convention, together with
request for a conference on Mon
day, was telegraphed by President
Mitchell to Chairman George F. Baer
of the operators committee, and an
answer was received agreeing to a
conference at o'clock on Monday
The only matters to be discussed at
the conference are the length of time
the awards shall continue, and the
provisions that there shall be no dis
elimination against the men who obey.
ed the Mine Workers suspension or
der. It is practically certain that the
operators will not accede to any sug
gestion for q two-year agreement az
that would throw the next conference
into a presidential year. and as the
mines will not want long term agree
ment, the chances are that a three
year agreement will be eventually
entered upon. An intimation has reach
ed here from President Baer that the
operators will not discriminate against
the miners now on suspension. and
the local representatives of the coal
companies say the same thing. It looks
therefore. as II a strike has been avert
ed. and the miners will return to
work probably on Monday May IA.
