PROFITS AS HIGH AS 2OOOS
MADE BY SOFT COAL ENIN1917
Ex. SEC. McADOO DECL ARES.
CABINET TO HAVE TRY

Washington, Nov. 24.-Settlement
OF the controversy over a new wage
agreement in the bitumlnous coal
industry tonight awaited action by
President Wilson'S cabinet.
Fuel administrator Garfield
speaking TO the Joint wage scale
committee and OF operators and min
ers, announced five principles which
have governed" him and his asso-
ciates. but different interpretations
were placed upon its various provi-
sIons by the workers and the mine
owners in informal discussions after
the meeting.
DR.. Garfield called the miners and
operators together after a lengthy
conference with Attorney
Palmer. Director General Hines and
Assistant Attorney-General Ames.
At the meeting of the cabinet to-
morrow, a definite decision of pol
icy regarding all phases of the
strike situation is expected and if
the cabinet is in disagreement the
whole question may be put before
the President.
Owing TO the disagreement Which
had arisen as 10 the amount of the
increase in the cost OF living, and
consequently the per cent. of wage
advance needed to meet higher Iiv-
ing costs. great significance was at
tached to DR.. Garfeld's declaration
that ''the average total increase in
pay over the 1913 base, whSch was
the base considered in 1877, should
not exceed the present increase in
the cost of living over the same
base"
ut is also to be considered that
the cost of living will fall rather
than rise during the next few years" :"
he added.
Operators construed this statement
Secretary Wilson that miners should
be given d 81 per cent. wage increase
to equalize the margin between pres
ent wages and a 70 per cent. rise in
living costs since 1914.
Pointing out that wartime coal prices
were fixed for the purpose of stimula--
ing production. DR.. Garfield declared
that the public would not now pay the
increase over normal profits allowed
during the war His further statement
that anv wage increase should he
borne by the operators or the public
or both was generally taken as to
mean that part of the advance must
come out of the excess profits of the
mining companies.
The five principles announced by DR..
Garfield were:
''First-The public not be asked 10
nav more than it is now paying for
coal unless il is necessary to do so IN
order to provide reasonable wages 10
the mine workers and a reasonable
profft to the operators.
'Secund-The arrangement entered
into between the operators, the mine
workers and the fuel administration.
with the sanction or the President of

intended TO euualize the wages of all
classes of mine workers and to be suf-
ficient TO cover the period of the war.

only increase in cost of living which
