Convention to Be Held in
Scranton to Decide
Course.
LEWIS ISSUES
LONG STATEMENT
Opinion Among Delegates Is That
Strike on April Is
Certain.

PHILADELPHIA, March 1S.-Ths
delegates Of the anthracite coal miners
today decided on Scranton, Pa. as the
place for the convention OF the Mite
Workers which will decide the ques-
ton OF peace or war in the anthracite
region.
The date OF the convention was set
for March O.
Before the meeting today President
Lewis issued the following statement:
1T is to be regretted that the con-
ference OF tae operators and United
Mine workers s representatives Of The
anthracite coal region, adjourned with
out reaching an understanding that
could be ma lie the basis OF a wage con
tract for a fixed period Of time.
The demands cs the miners were pre-
sented In detail. and the miners are
firmly or the opinion tl.2t they were
justified in asking for az advance in
wages for that class of men who earn
but S1-50 per day and less when working
In the mines. The miners are engaged
IN the most hazardous occupation OF any
IN the country. and no person will claim
that sl.5O per day is q high standard or
wages.
Ask Eight-Hour Day.
''The miners believe that they should
have an eight-hour work day for many
reasons, and one particular reason Is
shat the mines are not required 20 work
on an average of seven hours day.
'The demand OF the miners for recog-
milton. Of the Union imposes no hard
ship on the operators. and IT is known
that coal road presidents recognize Ia
Dor unions among other men in their
employ.
why discrI7aipste against the MN
ers2 The miners insist that if any
agr.- srnent IS 10 be signed. IL should be
signed by the miners Representatives, as
the official representatives Of the United
Mine Workers. If the miners do not
represent an organized body Of men in
signing an agreement. what do they
represent?
Certainly. as individuals. their sigma
lures to a document would have no Ell
feet IL they did not represent an organ
lied body OF men. We cannot conceive
Of condition where six men could rep
workers. There are many reasons that
can be given in support OF the miners
representatives.
Goes to Convention.
THE entire question now will go 10
the representatives OF the United Mine
Workers. in a tri-distTict convention
to be held in the near future. That con-
vention will decide what IS 10 take place
and what the outcome viii be on the
1st OF April no one can with any GER
tsinty predict at this time.
