L|GNIlE MINES ........ H..
CAN'T GET HELP
/. . At 81 THE DAY
Every Property Anxious to Pro-
due, Maximum, But Labor
Is Found a. Scarcity

Despite the fact that Ignite min
ing companies are advertising wages
as high as 81 per day, western North
Dakota may find it difficult to obtain
enough native fuel this winter because
of LABOR shortage, said Capt. |. T.
laker, fuel administrator for North
Dakota, today.
THE relatively high price prevail
ing for Ignite coal-$2.5O at the
mouth of the mine-has greatly stim-
ulated production" said Captain
Baker. EVERY man who has a little
coal in his back yard is at work with
pick and powder But it is impossi'
BILE to find sufficient labor. don't
know why this condition should exist.
| can see no reason why anybody
should not be glad to find winters
Job digging coal, with good wages,
warm place in which to work and so
little danger as is connected with coal
mining in North Dakota
North DakOta's fuel dictator is still
of the impression that eastern North
Dakota will burn eastern fuel this
winter Wyoming lump coal costs 50
the ton at the mouth of the mine, and
the freight rate to Bismarck is $3
more 1--WE can't revolutiOnize things
in a moment said Captain Baker.
Our freight moves eastward. The
railroads must have something to fill
those cars with when they bring them
back into the state. 1t would be r.
diculous to ask them to return empty
cars in order that they may haul
coal from Montana and Wyoming
They will bring these cars back filled
with Illinois and Iowa coal as they
have been doing.
"The national government is doing
it's best to assure North Dakota and
every other state an adequate supply
of coal. In every state we have fuel
administrator and an advisory board
named by the government. Soon we
will have a county administrator and
advisory board in every county. Then
we will have an opportunity to discov-
er just what each county needs. 1t
is useless to blame the elevator COM
panies, lumber yards and other local
dealers for not stocking up in the
summer. They couldn't have done it
had they wanted to. With the big
manufacturers. railway companies and
the government standing at the mouth
of these eastern mines ready to take
every ton that came out. with no
question about the price, and with an
Immediate demand for every ton of
that coal. we couldn't expect that it
would be shipped out here where
there is no immediate need"
