Soft Coal Miners
And Owners Clash
On Wartime Pact
Wage Demands Will Double
Production Costs and Are
Impossible, Say Opera.
tors; Resent Strike Threat

BUFFALO, Sept. 2e.-The soft coal
operators and miners of the central
competitive field clashed at to-day's
wage conference on the issues Of
whether the wartime agreement Of
April, 1916, is still in force and the ex-
tent of authority vested in the miners
delegates to negotiate new scale.
The issues were raised in the first
response of the operators to the de-
mands of the miners for a 60 per cent
increase in wages and shorter hours,
and came before the joint conference
IN statement signed by Thomas r.
Brewster, executive chairman of the
operators. The statement character
lzed the miners demands as radically
extravagant and manifestly impossible
of acceptance" The operators also
maintained that the miners delegates
came to the present conference with
their hands tied by instructions from
the United Mine Workers Cleveland
convention and with "strike threat as
their impelling argument"
Asks Detailed Consideration
John T. Lewis, acting president Of
the United Mine Workers, replied to
the operators statement. He protested
against a summary sweeping aside of
the detailed demands of the miners and
urged that they be considered one by
one on their merits, following the
course Of previous wage conferences.
He declared that the miners delegates
had full authority to negotiate a new
wage scale and that whatever action
they took here would be indorsed by
the adjourned convention of the United
Nine Workers when it meets at Indi-
annapolis.
The wage scale adopted by the oper-
ators and miners in 1916 and approved
by the government, Mr.. Lewis main
tanned, was for the period Of the war.
and it could not be justly asserted that
the country was still at war with Ger
many. The miners, he said, should
not be penalized for the long delay in
Terms Called Impossible.
After referring to the existing wage
agreement to which the Government
was party and maintaining that it is
still IN effect and recting the demands
OF the miners presented at the present
conference, the operators statement
said, in part:
"You demand 50 per cent increase
in wage scale, time and one-half for
overtime and double time for legal
holidays and Sundays. Acceptance of
these demands, with the indirect in
crcases inherent to other items Of your
demands, would more than double the
already high cost of producing coal,
with consequent large direct and in
direct additions to the cost of living of
every citizen and decentralization and
prostration of the industry Such wage
increases are impossible and their at
tempted enforcement would react with
great harm equally on The nation and
on the individual miners you represent
You demand change from the
long established custom of having wage
agreements expire in the spring, when
there is least danger and inconvenience
to the public, to an expiration Novem-
Der l, which is the time of maximum
demand for coal"
After a four-hour debate the miners
and operators agreed to meet again

The Transport Workers. Federation
tonight postponed decision on the
question whether a general strike of
tramWay, omnibus, dock and riverside
workers should be called. The post
ponement was due to the absence of q
number Of delegates, who could not

way strike.
Coal Expectation Barred.
The government has notified all the
Allied governments which are largely
dependent upon Great Britain for coal
that it will be impossible, because of
the strike Of the railway men, to per
nit any coal exportation
One hundred thousand miners arc
idle in the South Wales coal fields as
result of the strike Many collieries
arc closing down and the Swansea har-
Dor trade is paralyzed.
j. II. Thomas, secretary of the rail
way mems union, said day:
II regret an attempt is being made
to turn this fight into revolution
These efforts may succeed. | am not
responsible: The railroad men are
neither Bolsheviki nor anarchists, but
know what they are fighting for and
are more determined than ever"
Charges Incitement to Bloodshed
Secretary Thomas this evening is
sued another long statement justifying
the strike and accusing some newspa-
pers which support the government of
using language against the strikers
which is an incitement to blooshed He
also accuses the government of resort
ing to measures calculated to lead to
outbreaks of violence. AS an alleged
instance of this, Mr.. Thomas says:
They have summoned warships to
the main ports, they have provoca-
lively stationed army guards every
where, and, most unfortunate of all,
they are using against their own coun-
trymen methods of propaganda which
they used in war time against foreign
enemy"
MIR. Thomas then charges the gov
ernment with making lying state
ments with the deliberate purpose of
misleading the public" after having
forced a strike which the railway lead
ers were doing their utmost to avert.
