Car Strike Over.
Jersey Rests Legs
After 6-Day Hike
Service Now Normal
With Each Side Pleased.
Claiming Victory Over
the Other i'm Settlement

NEWARK. N. j., March 1s.-After a
ue-up of six days, due to the strike of
the trolley workers, streetcar service
was resumed at 4 o'clock this morning
on the lines of the Public Service Rail
way Company in Northern New Jersey.
There was a little delay in getting out
the early morning cars, but service was
normal by IL o'clock.
"A group of the men who were dis
satisfied with the settlement threatened
during the morning that the strike
would be renewed. but later in the day
the unrest subsided. Twenty men,
machlnlsts and shop repair workers, re-
ported at union headquarters that thew
had not been allowed to return to work.
William Wetmer, their leader, took the
matter up with Newton w. Bolen. the
company's division superintendent, who
later telephoned to union Headquarters
that there had been misunderstanding
and that no men would be DISCHARGED
Ihey were told there was nothing
TOR them because work was slack" Mr..
Bolen said. Every man who reported
Tor duty will be returned to the pay
roll" '
In the afternoon Mr.. Wetmer and
other members of the strikers Joint
conference board conferred with officers
OF the company to discuss the contract
which settled the strike.
Strike leaders and company officials
both claim victory. The men say they
won because their union was RECOGNIZED
although the company reserved the
right to treat with committees of their
employees other than those designated by
the union.

Miners to Demand
o-Hour Day, 5-Dav
Week, Wage Raise
Policy Committee of United
neutrality-suspicious.
Recommendations; Action
TO Follow Peace Signing

INDIANAPOLIS, March 1S-The pol
icy committee of the United Mine
Workers Of America, meeting here,
adopted this afternoon three funda-
mental principles recommended by In
ternational President Frank J. Hayes,
around which will be based the miners
demands to be presented to the op-
orators at a conference Immediately
following the signing of peace. The
recommendations were referred to a
sub-policy committee, which will work
out the details of the demands
The three principles are: A six
hour workday five-day week, a sub
stantial increase on all existing ton
mage, day work, yardage, deadwork
prices and government ownership of
mines. The subcommittee, after for
,nulating the demands, will call an
other meeting of the policy commit
tee, probably Thursday.
IN making his recommendations to-
day President Hayes said that unfort-
unateiy the press and public has some
times misunderstood the attitude of
the miners and the labor movement in
general and declared that the miners
have no desire to attain Bolshevism.
Mr.. Hayes said the recommendation
for shorter workday and five davs
week was offered in an effort 10
solve the unemployment problem nld
other existing situations peculiar to
the mining industry.
.. John Mitchell chairman of the New
York State Industrial Commission.
who from 1898 to 1908 was president
of the United Mine Workers of
America, said yesterday the six-hour
day In the mining industry would not
affect production or Inconvenience the
public.
''The bituminous mines are now
running only two or three days a
week, said Mr.. Mitchell, "and there
is much unemployment. Under nor
mai conditions bituminous mines are
operated only 200 days a year. Even
under the six-hour days system there
would not be full time work for all
the men.
Present conditions are the result
of the development of too many mines.
The possible production is so much
greater than the possible consumption
