Des Moines Nov. 19.-Iowa will pro-
duce about 100000 more tons OF coal
this year than last according to an
estimate made by Edward Sweeney.
state mine inspector. and D. E. Stamm,
secretary of the department.
Inspector Sweeney said the outlook
for large output of coal in Iowa was
never better and that thru the stimula-
ton given by the government by rails
ing the wages of the miners many for
mer miners were now returning to the
mines.
During 1915 Iowa had a total output
of coal of more than 7,217.000 tons,
During this same period more than
$40, 900 was paid out in wages to
miners and others working about the
mines
Fifteen Thousand Employed.
Iowa has 1915 men employed in or
about mines. There are 243 mines in
operation.
1t was estimated by Secretary Stamm
that the increase in miners wages
Drought about by the new price nNeQ
by the Washington agreement would
realize more than 100000 in increas-
ed wages for miners in Polk county
alone During last year Polk county
produced 100000 tons of coal, more
than one-seventh of the states entire
production. In the county there are
1852 men working in or about mines,
according to the state statistics for
1916
We have numerous inquiries at
this offi:e." said Secretary Stamm
from persons wishing to know if
schoolboys may go into the mines to
work. Both the state and federal laws
forbid boys under Is working in mines,
but il is probable that several Of these
boys have gone to work in the mines
because of attra ctive wages offered"
Thru the Washington agreement
miners wages were greatly advanced.
With few exceptions the average in
crease in wages was $40. Tracklayers
timbermen, cagers, drivers trip riders,
water haulers, drillers and shooters
who had been getting a daily wage OF
$3.50 are now receiving So day.
Some mine workmen are making wages
