feet that in Butte, Mont, where the
Western Federation of Miners has an
agreement with the mine owners,
wages are as low as they are in
Michigan, while the cost of living is
higher.
This is a deliberate untruth, known
to the mine owners managers here,
since the majority of them are Off
Gals of the syndicates which control
the Butte mines.
Statistics show that the lowest
minimum wage in the Butte, Mont,
mines is $3.50 a day; while in Michi-
gan the average wage is 1920 a day.
In Butte, Mont, most of the
miners have more left at the end of
each month after paying for board
and lodging than the Michigan
miners receive.
The majority of the married Butte
miners live in their own homes, not
in company shaCks from which they
might be evicted at the pleasure of
the boss. They are their own. Mich
igan miners do not own their homes;
they own very little of anything.
Furthermore, Butte miners work
only eight hours a day to earn their
$3.50 minimum or their 81 maximum.
Michigan miners work eleven hours
a day to get their 1920 average.
The press of Northern Michigan,
however, seems to be completely un-
der the domination Of the mine COM
panies, and ready to publish any lie
they may wish, and to see that any
lie they may wish is sent out through
press associations.
The miners, indeed, have been
forced to issue a four-page bulletin
of their own to get even the smallest
particle of the truth before the peo-
pie. .....
Another freely published lie of the
mine companies is that the union
