ing production, to say nothing Of the
nations demand for a greatly in
creased output. ..-
IF wages are not increased 70
those not now receiving bonuses to
the equivalent of bonuses, then the
industry faces a sure and certain
loss Of needed manpower.
For the protection of our war
program, to keep the wheels of ba-
sic industry going full blast, it is
necessary that a wage adjustment
be made on a basis that will put an
end to the wholesale competition for
men and hold the miner to the mines

given the equivalent wage possible
for him to receive in other indus
tries"
Mr.. Hayes quotes a letter address
ed to DR.. H. A Garfield, United
by Pres. Hayes, Vice Pres. John L..
Lewis and Sec. VIM. Green, Of the
United Mine workers. The miners
officials state that their sales show
that operators in Ohio, Illinois and
Pennsylvania are paying their min
ers bonus and while in southwest,
Tennessee, and eastern Kentucky
petitioned the fuel administration,
to prevent the paying Of bonuses
above the schedule of price of the
wage agreement negotiated in Wash
ington in 1917 and approved at the
biennial convention of the miners in
January, 1918. Such an order, the
letter says, would be fraught with
grave danger and would unquestion-
ably result in serious decrease of

ly developing labor condition within
the coal industry, which, If permit
ted to go unchecked, would under
mine coal production plans"
The wage increase "can be met
and applied by the coal operators
without the necessity OF an increase
in the selling price of coal to the
consuming public" asserted the min
ers official, who added that the pay
ing Of bonuses by many mine own
ers now rs indisputable evidence
that the industry is able to bear an
advance in wages"
The labor condition, in brief, has
been caused, President Hayes says,
by many mine owners paying bon
uses in excess of wage scale in or
der to obtain and keep miners in
their names. Mr.. Hayes statement
continues:
1.-THE practice has become so wide
spread that the stability Of the entire
industry is threatened and the coal
operators themselves are becoming
alarmed at their own handiwork.
1.-THE fuel administration Is con-
Quoting Investigations to find out
the reasons for the condition and the
identity Of operators who are bid
ding for labor by the payment Of
bonuses. Various Of the operators
associations have petitioned the fuel
administration to save them from
the disastrous results Of the bonus
system.
IF bonuses are eliminated from
the pay envelopes Of the miners now
receiving them, the industry will lose
thousands so necessary to maintain
