2 MILLION WORDS
Will Be One of the Most Important
Pieces of Legislation Before APP
preaching Session of Congress-

WASHINGTON, D. Cone of the
most important and certainly the big
gest pieces of legislation before the
short session of congress will be the
so-called Little Bill which codifies the
federal statutes for the past 125 years,
and which was drafted by Representa-
tive Edward c. Little, OF Kansas,
chairman of the house committee on
revision of the laws.
Despite its name, the Little Bill con
tains more than 100000 words,
grouped in 1000 sections under six
ty titles. 1t will correct many serious
defects in administration Of the federal
statutes.
Representative Lite discovered that
the board of ordnance and fortifica-
tons of the war department is without
authorization in the law for thirty-two
wears.

Washington. Jan. Mine operators
Of the central competitive field have an
nounced that In presenting data this
week to the coal strike settlement com
mission their records will be laid "be-
fore the public view for the first time :
Before the commission finishes hear
ing the side Of the operators. said a
statement by the central competitive
field operators, intimate records and
data. never before revealed touching
upon the wage issue and dealing with
various features of work in the mines
will be laid before il.
Payroll evidence will be offered to
show that the miners. IN most fields can
make from $40 TO ST. day and that SIa
n day can be earned readily in the rich
er mining districts. which operate from
80 10 o15 days a year. 1t will be shown
that comparatively few of the men in
the field work steadily and that if they
did, their yearly earnings wonld be in
creased from ID to 20 per cent. This.
a ton to the present productive price of
coal
"From their payroll sheets the opera
tors will show that miners in every
field have arbitrarily refused work when
it was obtainable, the percentage of idle
miners varying from l. to 16 per cent or
more in different fields.
Cost Of living in mining communities
will be gone into and the operators will
argue that the 1t per cent wage ad-
vance recently granted which was alb
sorbed by the operators without any
increase in tie price of coal to the con-
surner. was more than enough to cover
any increase in the cost of living"
