 An effort is being made to rebuild the school and the appeal for the CO., operation of the club members was asked. She then introduced Carrie Tuggle who made a brief talk, which was An appeal from an old-fashioned negro to her white folks" She spoke of the difference In the way the ne- eroes of today and the negroes of years ago are treated.

Hope of speeding up the negotiations and reaching an agreement by April l has been virtually abandoned by the sub committee, it was learned today. The progress has been slow up to the present [ time and the arguments lengthy. The operators have not presented any counter proposals.
 The operators understood to be planning to fight hard against any com crete regulation of the working hours in the anthracite industry. They point out that any Interruption of the work ing schedules will mean more expensive overhead charges, and in other ways af- feet the cost of production
 While the members of the subcom- mittee deny that any disposition has been made of any of the demands. 1t was learned today that understanding s has been reached on some of the less im- portant clauses Some of these demands only affect certain sections of the an- thracite region.
 The important demands, such as wege increases, shorter hours and recognicon of the union, have been held up pend- ing a decision in the bitumineus situa- ton. The subcommittee, however, has been hearing arguments on these dues- tions from time to time, but has delayed definite action, with the hope of hav- ing the soft coal award as a basis for ar anthracite agreement.

 The official statement issued by the subcommittee at the close of today's s conference follows:
 "The subcommittee of anthracite oper- ators and miners met today and con- tinued the consideration of the mass of figures presented by the miners cover ing the increase in the cost of living and it's relation to the request of the miners for increase in wages The m,fi- CTS representatives argue the figures presented by them substantiate their claim for higher wages. Copies of all of the data submitted were read into the record and will be considered by the opera tors.'
