REACH AGREEMENT
Only Difference Between Oper-
atOrs and Employees is the
Duration of Scale.
ZIG CONCESSIONS GRANTED
unskilled Labor Gets Increase Of $1.50
a Day-others Given About
20 Per Cent.

Washington, Oct. 3.-Coal operators
and miners of the central competitive
field, meeting here to discuss a read
justment of wage scales, reached a
full agreement tonight as to the
amount of increases to be given. They
will discuss further tomorrow the
ength of time the new contract will
un.
Pick and machine miners, who de-
handed fifteen cents a ton increase in
pay, will get ten cents and unsldlled
labor, which sought a wage raise OF
$3.50 a day, will get $3.50. Yardage
and dead work will be paid for on a
basis Of a straight 20 per cent in
crease.
The wage increases were granted by
the operators contingent on their alb
sorption in higher coal prices, which
they expect the fuel administration to
give them on presentation next week
of their cost Of production figures.
The miners are seeking a contract
Tor two years, but the operators insist
on a provision for its termination
sixty days after the end of the war.
Miners representatives said tonight
they would not yield on this point.
Provisions will be inserted in the con
tract to prevent either side from.
breaking it for any cause. This was
demanded by the operators because
he miners in asking the present in
ereases are ignoring a contract signed
asst April.
Coal mine wage scales throughout
he country are based on the central
1eld scale and if today's agreement is
atified, wages will be raised accord
ingly in other districts.
Operators of the central field are
asking the fuel administration for in
ereases of about fifty cents a ton in
he price fixed for coal at the mines
IN a recent order by President Viii
SON. Many mines, they insist, will be
forced to shut down unless prices are
revised. Already Doctor Garfield, the
fuel administrator. has granted in
creases in outlying districts, where
FOR the most part coal veins are thin,
making the cost of operation high.
