But Provision Contained as to
Mine Machinists May Cause
Organization to Reject A. F.
of L. Offer-Ends Long Drawn
Discussion.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. a.
The Executive Council of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, after three
days conference with President Meyer
of the Western Federation Of Miners,
has decided to issue a charter to the
applicants on the following terms:
THAT charter be issued to the
Western Federation of Miners on the
basis Of the jurisdiction Of the United
Mine Workers Of America. It was
found that there was some difference
between the coal mining and the min
eral mining organizations in respect
to the organization and employment
of machinists which did not relatively
apply to other trades, and, therefore,
it is made a provision of the issue
of this charter that the members of
the machinists' locals now existing
in mining camps are not to be re-
quired to join the Western Federation
Of Miners in order to follow their
trades in the mining camps
After reading a copy of the action
of the executive council, President
Moyer expressed the hope that his or
ganization would accept the charter.
The executive council states that
in granting this charter it had in
mind the declaration of the Western
Federation of Miners and the United
Mine Workers of America favoring
the formation of a mining depart
ment under the jurisdiction of the
American Federation of Labor, and
that the advantage Of such a depart
ment would be great to the work.

ACCIDENT INSURANCE
TO Be States DUTY

TACOMA, Wash, Jan. 27.-A state
accident insurance for employees is the
practical proposal just made public
by Governor M. E. Hays, the measure
pesln the work of a special commits
sion authorized to draw up an en-
ployees' liability law for the state
of Washington
The proposed law calls upon every
employer of labor at hazardous oc-
cupations to pay into state fund J.
specified percentage of his pay roll.
FOR powder mills the rate would be
~ per cent, and for some occupa-
tions it might fall as low as is per
cent, all depending upon the adiudeed
degree or risk in the particular occu-
patton.
The commissioners assert that the
schedule rates to be charged the vari-
Gus industries are practically the
same as those demanded by the
casualty companies, with the advan-
tage that the state furnishes absolute
assurance while the companies only
limited assurance
employers are specifically prohib-
1ted In the bill from deducting from
their employees wages the cost Of
the premiums, under heavy penalty.
This clause, however. does not ap-
ply to another feature of the bill
"nlch IS called a first aid fund"
which is to be contributed to equally
by employers and employees at the
rate of cents for every working
day, making a total of cents for
each workman. This fund will 70
TO cover the cost Of all emergency
treatment of injured workers in hos
p1tals designed by the commission.
Many features Of this bill are heart
1ly supported by organized labor in
washington, and especially by the
railroad men who have for wears
been working for legislation along
these lines.
Proposals that the state 20 further
and include an old age annulty-not
a pension, but something that could
be paid for during the workers pro-
ducing years-are advocated by Ia
koma railroad men, prominent among
them being Fl. A. Moore, secretary
Of the Railroad Mems club. Doubt
full of the stability of the average
fraternal insurance organization, Mr..
Moore has this to say:
III we can get the state back of
the poor mans insurance then We'll
nave an institution that will last as
long as the state exists
