ously It takes more men to produce
by this method than by machines.
In fact, the secretary OF labor
claims that at least 81 per cent Of
the men employed in the bitumin-
Gus fields are engaged in picte
mining. So he applies his figures
on the cost Of living to that stu
alton.
DR.. Harry A. Garfeld's set OF
principles indicate clearly that he
is in agreement with Secretary
Wilson as to the computations on
the increased cost of living. He,
too. says that inasmuch as the OPP
orators were permitted to increase
their price in 1917 and q wage in
crease was correspondingiy given
because Of the increase in cost OF
living between 1914 and 1917, 90

an increase in wages and an in

The only difference between the
situation in 1917 and now ID that In
order to stimulate the production
OF coal . large enough sale price
had to be sanctioned 30 as to fur
nish an incentive in profit for op-
orators large and small.
Profits Too Large.
Now, however. it has been found
that the operators made large
profit, in some cases too large.
Similarly, the government is con-
fident that the cost Of living is 60

so. Therefore actual figures
agreed upon for the increase in the
price of coal and the increase in
wages must represent compro-
mise between the claims OF the min
! ers for 40 per cent increase in
wages and the willingness Of the
operators to pay an advance Of 20
per cent. The exact figures will be
half way between the two.
