THE coal miners have. without
question, good grounds for com
plant against their employers, since
the conditions in the coal regions do
not properly take into account the
rights of the workmen. The popular
impression hat the miners are strik-
ing for a shorter day is wrong; since
their contention is to provide stead
Ter employment instead of sudden
der whenever the demand for coal
slackens. This is one of the burdens
that the miners do not believe they
should be called upon to bear. De-
spite all sors of denials ii has come
generally to be believed that the OPP
Juggling the supply, and this belief
is borne out by voluminous figures
and tables introduced into the Con
Gressional Record by Senator Owen.
The coal miners and the public are
always the sufferers: and the miners
want an end put to the practice of
keeping them in needless idleness for
long periods of time. The Govern
ment recognizes that it has a solemn
duty to perform In the coal regions,
and if conditions are as they appear
at this writing it is probable that
even in the coal mines there will be
beneficial efforts from an era OF
housekeeping" The coal mining
crisis appears to be clearing the at
mOsphere for better understandings
between employers and employees
and if the labor leaders have thor,
oughly learned their lesson real pro
gress in lettering the industrial sit
uation may be expected. - Cordel
