NINE WORKERS ACCEPT
SEC. WILSON'S SCHEME
TO NEGOTIATE WAGES

w. Lukings, president of the South
western Interstate Coal Operators as
sociation, proposed returning to the
old policy of allowing the basic scale
to be negotiated by the operators and
miners in the central competitive field.
Because outlying operators are not or
ganized Mr.. Lukings said that no time
should be wasted, but that "public in
terest in an early settlement makes it
desirable to continue as in the past.
Mr. Luking's statement immediately
brought from Mr.. Lewis charge of
bad faith.
Charging that the operators in the
outlying districts had led miners and
the public to believe they were ready
to negotiate with the miners Mr. Lew
is exclaimed, eye Gods, is there nc
more good faith left in man? Are the
mine workers of America to be the ev-
erlasting victims of bad faith on the
part of the people with whom they have
to deal?'
The three proposals expected to aid the
two factions in arranging the new wage
agreement were set forth by the labor sec
retary yesterday as follows:
First, negotiation through joint wage
scale committees representing all districts
second, negotiations through concurrent
sessions of committees from the various
districts, and third, negotiation first of al
agreement in the central competitive fielt
and then of agreements for other field
with that of the central district as
basis.
Indication of conflict on the scope o
the agreement to be negotiated involving
