SCALE AGREEMENT

Pittsburg, Kansas, Feb. S.-Alexan-
der NJ. Howat, president of the Kan
sas miners, and five members of the
unions district executive board were
under orders to appear in District
Judge Andrew j. Curran's court here,
today, and answer charges of violating
an injunction forbdding them to call
strikes in the coal fields of this
state.
According TO officials Howat and
those arrested with him held meet
200 men in two mines in this county.
The strike hinges entirely upon the
question of the age of Karl Mish-
mash, who was employed in Mine II.
of the George *. Mackic Fuel Com
pany near Scammon. Almost two
years ago the joint board made an
agreement that Mishmash should re-
ceive increased pay from the time he
was 10 years old. He was being
paid at the boys scale for the work
he was doing, and it was agreed that
he receive mans pay from the time
he was 10.
The operators and the union agree
that this award was made and that
the only, question in dispute is that
of the date when young Mishmash
became 10. The cause of the dispute,
payment of the award has been held
up almost two years, has resulted in
the strike.
Mishmash is no longer employed at
the mine. The union asserts that
under the award he has about 5000
coming 10 him as the difference be-
tween boys pay and mans pay for
the time he worked after his 18th
birthday.
School records and every other pos
sible source Of recourse as 10 the
boys age have been searched. The
Mishmash family Bible is the storm
center OF the controversy, however.
The operators say that two different
dates for the boys birth are recorded
in the flyleaves Of the family Bible.
II is reported that the district
board Of the mine workers made the
offer that II the 5000 was paid TO the
boy and proof was later produced
that he did not become l9 at the
time he and his parents claimed. the
money will be returned, the district

points against the teams of their

Against the same western teams

The point now is whether the

If they cannot, and the Pirates ride
