the purpcs Sc OF asking that the wage
argument be reopened and the mine
workers given such further increases
as was done in the case Of the bltum

understood the operators let it be
known they were there for one pur-
pose and that was to accept the award
as approved by President Wilson and
that il the workers had anything fur

go through regular channels, as the
