Operators Side.
MEMS DEMANDS EXPLAINED
Lewis Argues Thirty Hour Week
Throughout the Year Would Supply
All the Coal the Country Needs.

Washington, Jan. ia ,At.d day
of argument before President Wilson :
commission which is considering rae
soft-coal miners demand lrl. il VII
tuaIly ready to proceed % the cNamLu-
alton of the facts at issue between lie
miners and their employers.
The last six spoNeslncn fer the
United Mine Workers Of America 1!u-
ished the preliminary s,arclu al oI j.e
case for the men, and Ralph Crews,
counsel for the operators ia The cen
trail competitive district, likewise conn.,
pleted the general statement IN rppo-
sition. Operators i'll the central dis
trict will have one more argument,
which will be made by Phil II. Penna,
of Terra Haute, Ind, and thersa.,eF
the commission will begin cons dera-
ton of testimony and documentary
evidence.
Frank Harrington, Of the Illinois
miners union, in closing for The min
ers, estimated the advance III living
costs since 1914 i'll Illinois mining cen
ters at from 10 20 us per cent. Year
ly earnings of coal miners in Illinois,
however, he said, had increased only
from approximately 500 i'll 1913 To-
1920 in 1918. In the light Of these
figures, he said, the miners claim for
a 60 per cent increase in wages AMI
thirty-hOur week was justified
John Moore and Ed Stewards, pres
dents of the Ohio and Indiana districts
of the union, preceding Harrington,
dealt more particularly with the in
ternal differences and dItterenJiaiS
John L. Lewis, acting president of the
United Mine Workers, gave out 4
statement explaining TIE thirty-hou.
week demand as an cndeaVor by the
miners to distribute their work
throughout the year, Geological sur
vey estimates, Lewis said, SHOW that
the weekly operation of mines Tor The
thirty hours would supply all The coal
the country needs.
Attorney Crews opened for The op-
orators with the declaration That the
60 per cent wage increase is the real
issue before the commission. He
stamped tile 60 per cent increase de
mand as fraught with staggering con-
sequences"
Likewise, discussing the thirty-hour
week, Crews said that it was only an
incorrect economic theory which made
the miners leaders believe that such
a system would be maintained.
Members of the commission devot-
ed further time outside of the open
sessions to considering the situation
in the districts outlying the central
competitive field, preparatory to call
ing in these representatives for an
open hearing.
