Pick Fares IN Plan
To End Coal Strike

LONDON, March 19.-After care
ful Inspection OF the minimum wage
scale prepared by the government,
and introduced in the house Of COM
mons late today, the general opinion
of the members was that the meas
ure was fatally defective. They de-
clared that It. weuld merely enable the
English miners and operators to start
operations again, and not affect the
Welsh and Scotch districts. Tie
measure contains no penal provision
to compel its enforcement and does
not compel the operators TO oDen their
mines or the miners to go back TO
work
II was the general impression tdis
evening that the law Will be passed
and go into effect Immediately, out
that IL will solve the problem only in
England. The situation i'm Wales EHi
in Scotland. it was believed, will re-
main az 1t is, and the strike there will
continue.
He said II provided for a reason
able minimum wage and safe~guarded
the operators against slackness on
the part OF employees. The wages anu
safeguards were to be determined by
district boards.
The district boards are TO be COM
posed of operators and miners With
an independent chairman. They will
decide just what the minimum wage
scale shall be in each district and will
apply the law as the individual needs
'fthe district demand.
Miners who fail to comply with the
provisions of the bill lose their right
TO the minimum wage in the mines.
Bonar Law, criticising the measure
I'm the first speech in opposition. said
that the remedy was very likely TO
prove much worse than the disease.
Premier Asquith explained the bill
which was introduced in blank be-
cause he had not been able to get II
completed I'm time. He said that this
legislation was resorted TO only after
il had been demonstrated that all
hope OF a settlement of the strike
through agreement between the min.
ers and the operators was gone. The
BILL he explained, was intended mere.
~ as a stop-gap, its life being Only
for three years.

Anthracite Miners TO
Meet Operators Again

NEW YORK, March 19.-That a
further conference between the
anthracite coal operators and the
scale committee OF the anthracite dis
trict will follow the conference be-
tween the bitumipous operators ana
miners which begins in Cleveland to
morrow was considered almost GER
tain today. With that belief came an
other that there would be no strike
In the hard coal fields. Although on
the surface the union ahd-the mine
owners are seemingly as far apart as
the poles, there have been confer
ences that have not become public
which indicated that both sides are
ready TO conciliate.
Persons close TO the trade believed
today that before the present agree
ment expires an understanding may
be reached whereby II may be ex.
tended for a short time TO permit fur
Their negotiations. Many OF the oper-
ators are willing TO grant a ten per
cent advance In wages and II was be
lieved today that when the settle
ment Is finally made II wifi be on that
basis
Under the Snulng scale the price
of coal at tidewater should begin TO
go down on the first Of next month.
II probably will not do so however,
and the present figures will remain
in force until the danger OF strike
has passed That the dealers are uD-
willing TO forecast the outcome was
shown when Borough President Nc
Aneny prepared TO open bids for 3d.
462. 1920 pounds of coal for the public
buildings in Manhattan for delivery
during the next three months. Not a
single one of the more than 1000 deal
ers in the city submitted a bid and
the city will have TO take its chances
with other consumers buying In the
open market for a while.
Wholesale dealers everywhere In
the United States deny they have TAX
en- advantage of the situation 10 adj
vance prices. Where there has been
an increase, they charge. ii was due
TO the retailers who put the price up
to hold as much of a reserve supply
as possible But IL the bituminous
miners and operators fail TO reach
an agreement at their conference
which begins tomorrow II may seri-
ously complicate the entire situation.

"Dibbs," | asked, T" do you intend

his desk and thumbed them over.
Dibbs and are old chums, so can
take such Liberties. 1t was formid-
able pile, but there wasn't a pen

Suppose none of them were type

be so many!
He hadn't thought of that.
"Dibbs," | continued, this sub.
ject interests me and have lately
been collecting some facts about the
typewriter. The industry was found
ed by the advent of the Remington
Typewriter in 1873. That is nearly
40 years ago, isn't it!"
Dibbs, like the fair-minded soul
he is, allowed that my arithmetic
seemed TO be correct.

subject, you cali the Remington

what everybody calls il. Honestly.
