MAY REACH AGREEMENT
IN CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA

PHILADELPHIA. March 3o.-Members
OF The Central Pennsylvania Bitumlnous
Coal operators association left here to-
night FOR Dubois. Pa. where they will
meet the officials OF the United Mine
Workers tomorrow and cndeavor TO ad-
Just the wage schedule for the coming
year.
The operators OF central Pennsylvania
which comprises district No. OF the
miners union. for some time have been
attempting TO have the union euualize
wages OF all miners In that territory. The
operators say they cannot compete with
tile non-uniOn mines II the union Insists
upon a wage increase.
The increase of ,, 20 cents announced
Yesterday by the Berwind- White Goa!
Mining company, which employs non
union miners created much interest
among the operators employing union
labor
Charles w. Mills. secretary of the Coal
Operators association OF central Penn
syivania today said:
The Berwind- White Coal Mining com
Dany is not working under contract with
the United Mine Workers Of America and
on that account is able 10 operate col
lierics ten hours for days work while
the operators Of central Pennsylvania,
who have wage agreement with the
miners organization, worlt but eight
hours. This long day is equivalent 10 a
saving OF al least cents n ton in the
cost OF producing coal 10 The operators
who work ten hours, The Bcrwnd-
day labor employed in and about the
mines. 26 i-10 cents an hour
Operators dealing with the union pay
for the same lahor In the same field. 80
cents per hour This difference will
amount TO n saving of fully . cents per
ton To the operator paying lower wage.
"The association OF operators in cen-
tral Pennsylvania has been for years ask
Ing the miners union To organize the
non-union districts with which they COM
pete. and during the last year We have
made several efforts to secure an equal
iZaiion with non union competitors,
''Whle the advance paid by the Ber-
wind company i3 not as large MS IL should
be TO place that company on an equal
basis with other operators in central
Pennsylvania, 1t certainly is a step IN
the right direction. and We believe the
other non union operators In our field
will follow suit, Our association is not
in favor Of a reduction OF wages, but does
demand .hat the competitors employing
nom union labor pay the same price for
that labor the operators who employ
union labor: and we believe II is up 10
the union TO bring about such a con-
QltiOn.'
