.RAI|FY MINERS WAGE AGREEMENT I27 Per Cent Increase Be- comes Effective Today to
 Continue Two Years
By Associated Press

New York, arch 31.-rhe negotiations for new agreement for the bitumnous coal miners were brought to close this afternoon when the general scale com mittee of operators and miners of the central competitive field ratified con tract embodying the award of President Wilson's coal commission.
 This new agreement, which involves a wage increase of T per cent, becomes eff fectye tomorrow morning and will COB tinue in force for period of two years.
 One of the features of the new contract is a clause which provides that all in ternal differences in the various dis tEicts of the bituminous coal feids will be settled by the district officers of the Mine Workers and operators. There must be nothing done, however, in adjusting these matters that win increase the cost of production or decrease the earning capacity of the mine workers. The eight hour day is continued,
 Representatives of the mine operators of West Virginia Kentucky and other outlying districts not included in the cen tral competitive field immediately at nounced they also would put into effect the new contract in their territory.
 Wage increases totalling approximately s20o. .000, ,000 annually are granted the mine workers in thesnew agreement. which al fleets about 10000 soft coal dggers.
 Despite contention of workers that in- creases should be borne by the operators without additional costs to the public, the mine owners tonight reiterated their announcement that present coal prices will be boosted from 4 cents 10 yl.51 per ton at the mines.

 A move to force it through the House Friday took shape. but democrats, out spoken in their opposition. finally ob- tained an agreement to postpone cansid- eration until Monday.
 J While trying to work out a resolution calculated to suit all factions of their lparty, republican committeeman had ar ranged to call it up Friday. remembering Ithat it was on Good Friday three years lago that war was declared.
 { The resolution, introduced by Chairman Porter of the foreign affairs committee, provides for Termination of a state of war as soon as it becomes effective. It provides also for reciprocal trading with lGfermany under certain restrictions, and | for repeal of the Presidents war powers Germany would be allowed forty-fyc kdays sto notify the President that it has Edeclared a termination of war, and 1waives all claims against the United Estates ssthat it would not have had the Sright to assert had the United States kratified the treaty of Versailles
 Upon Germany's failure to send such modification trading or the making o1 loans or credits would be prohibited ex- cept with the license of the President. I HOLD LONG CONFERENCE ! Republican members of the foreign af- Hairs committee, to which the resolution Twas referred without comment, worked

 Democrats, on the other hand, con
 hnded that termination of the war rested
