CHARGES THAT Mines
WORKING OPEN SHOP
Several Have Abrogated Con-
tracts.

1t was learned this week that a
number Of mines in Northern West
Virginia, especially in the outlying
coal fields, have abrogated their
contract with the United Mine
Workers of America and are now
working on an open shop" basis
with the 1917 wage scale in effect.
At least two or three of these
mines are located on the Charleston
division, Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road, several between Weston and
Tygarts Junction and several in
Mcnongahela county and particu-
larly in the SCOTS Run section.
1t is also understood definitely
that at least one mine in Preston
county has taken the same stand.
AS far as the Fairmont region
proper is concerned, it is believed
that no idea is harbored to abro-
sate the agreement but the opera
tors are expressing the desire to
live up to the principles Of collec-
tive bargaining during the life of
the contract. Operators have met
the miners on their request for an
advance Of wages several times
during the past five years, and
they contend that it seems no more
than fair that some disposition be
taken for reduction in wages, es-
pecially since the Fairmont region
is hemmed in on all sides by OPP
pressive differentials which are
now in force as we'll as competition
with the 1917 scale of wages in
to adjoining ron-union folds.

American Legion Notes.

There will be an important meeting
OF Potomac Post No. 81, American Le-
gion, in their room Friday night. Sep
TENDER 30th, at 8 o'clock. Every mem
Der OF the Legion is urged to be
present. The Legion still maintains the
Hartzell building as its headquarters.
At this meeting there will be made
public Ito members only the plans
for the coming winter. Basketball will
be the most important question that
will come up in the way of sports
The manager for the coming season
has not been definitely chosen, but
will be appointed Friday night. Prac-
tically all of last years team will be
on hand. Withrow Legge will still
handle the coaching of the team, ex-
cept when 1t interferes with the COL
lege FIVE. Myers and Knott will be
found at the guarding positions, Legge
center and Banks and Moler forwards.
However, the indications are that the
substitutes Of last year will make it
hard for the regulars to hold their
places. III the team sticks together and
with the support Of the public that was
shown last year the Legion will be able
to put in the field stronger organiba-
ton than the one that was so success
ful in trimming some OF the best
quintettes in this section of the coun-
try last season. The community
building has been secured as basket
ball court, and in all probability the
first regular practice will begin the
first week in November.
