MINERS DEMAND
INCREASE IN PAY
Wage Scale Report Sub
mitted to Convention.
BASIS FOR CONFERENCE
Operators and Employees to Meet at
Philadelphia Next Week to Discuss
Competitive Field.

Indianapolis, Ind, Feb. A fiat in
rease of 5 cents a ton on a mine run
basis, a 10 per cen increase on all
dead work, ~yardage and day labor,
and a half holiday on Saturday were
the principal recommendations of the
scale committee submitted to the con-
yention of the United Mine Workers
of America.
The report is the basis for work of
the joint conference Of miners and op-
orators of the Central competitive
field, which meets in Philadelphia
next Tuesday. This field includes IL
linois, Ohio, Indiana and Western
Pennsylvania.
The report of the committee also
asks that all coal be weighed before
being screened and paid for on a mine
run basis; a uniform work day and
wage scale for all classes of outside
and inside labor; a proper readjust-
ment of the machine differential at
the basing plant and that all local in
CAPABILITIES and internal differences be
referred to the various districts for
settlement.
Efforts were made to provide for a
10-cent increase on the ton. 1t was
opposed by several on the ground that
that amount could not be won and a
compromise would have to be made.
President John p. White spoke in
favor of a scent advance.
