NOT DOING THEIR SHARE
Must Produce Foodstuff In Larqep
Quantities or Skilled Labor WIN
Not Be Attracted to State.

BlueiieId. W. Va, Nov. 22.-Neil
Robinson, of Charleston. secretary OF
the West Virginia Coal Operators AS
ISOLATION, was In the city on his way
home. and when seen at the Altamont
said that his trip TO this city had no
particular significance but was made
merely as an ordinary trip In the in-
terest OF the coal operators assecia~
ton Mr.. Robinson makes trips
through West Virginia and some OF
the surrounding states and looks over
coal properties.
On account OF his thorough under
standing of the coal business from an
operating and prospecting standpoint
his opinion bears great weight with
the operators as well as in the state
department. In speaking of West
virginia's future Mr.. Robinson said
that so far as its coal and coke Is con-
eerned II Is assured but as a great
manufacturing state and one of great
industrial activity along other than
coal and oil lines West Virginia will
not forge rapidly TO the front until
its people recognize the fact that the
farmers are not doing their share.
Mr. Robinson said that food prod
ucts are too high In this state to at
tract skilled labor AMI until such time
as the farmers produce foodstuffs In
larger quantities than at present and
bring their value down 10 the points
enjoyed by the larger and more popu-
lous centres the state of West Vfr-
gina will not take her proper place
among the leading Industrial states
Mr. Robinson said that 1t Is almost
impossible 10 retain skilled labor In
this state. as the families find that
they can afford TO work for lower
wage In ether states and still have
more money on account of the food
stuffs being cheaper.
