mentioned are not the only ones
where wage reductions have been
effected with which the northern
West Virginia region has to COM
pete. There are the Allegheny river
and northwest Pennsylvania, the
Reynoldsville and Shawmut, and the
Latrobe, Greensburg and Yogiog-
heny regions of Pennsylvania, with
a production approximating 17,600-
600 tons, giving employment to IT,
500 miners; the Virginia coal fields
with an annual production Of $780,
900 tons, giving employment to
$500 miners; and the Northeast
Hazard and Harlan fields OF Ken
lucky with a production, covered by
wage reductions, Of 8,700,000 tons,
giving employment to $500 miners
A few mines in the Wheeling dis
trict have reduced wages, the total
annual production covered being
about 100000 tons, employing about
200 miners.
Thus 1T is seen that the northern
West Virginia region with its $4,000
miners, who ought to be at work,
less the 200 affected already by
wage reductions, faces a competi-
ton from other fields employing
$500 miners at reduced wages.
As long as that sort OF competi-
ton is allowed to continue, just 50
long will the coal mines of northern
West Virginia be idle. 1t would
seem to be common sense, there
fore, for the miners of this region
to accept a reasonable wage reduc-
ton in order that they may be en-
abled to go back to work

COMMENT OVER
WEST VIRGINIA
A COMPETITION THAT MUST BE
MET

(From the CIarksburg Telearam)
The coal operators of northern
West Virginia declare that their
production Is being limited by rea-
son OF competition they are forced
to face in various other coal produc-
ing fields Of the country. At the time
this was written the last daily rec
ord of operations in this region show
ed that $50 mines were shut down
and only forty-four working, while
the latter were not in full operation.
AS this time of the year is normally
the biggest tonnage period for the
coal regions, and as production is
away behind what it ought to be,
there certainly must ''ibe something
radically wrong with regard to the
sprodiotion of this region.
The onneAsville- Uniontown coal
region and the SomersetsCentral
Pennsylvania regions. which latter
includes the Huntington and Bed
ford districts, are probably the two
most serious competitors the north
ern West Virginia region has. Their
LOAudSc 10 COuSluSIdUIS anu LIle
wage reductions recently put into eff
feet there have been close to thirty
per cent. The three regions normal
ly produce approximately 596G0,000
tons annually, giving employment to
some $4,000 miners. The production
now, however, is confined almost en-
tirely to the plants affected by wage
reductions and the annual product
ion Of these is 100000 for the Con-
Observation-Disclosures region, it's nor
NAL annual production; 100000
tons for the Somerset region, about
half its normal annual production;
and 100000 tons for the Central
Pennsylvania region. These total
100000 tons, which requires the
employment Of 1900 miners. The
approximate annual production of
the northern West Virginia coal re-
gion is 24,ooO,0O0 tons. giving en-
ployment to $4,000 miners under
normal conditions. Only 100000
tons of this region is now affected
by wage reductions.

DECIDING SCHOOL COURSES

| DECIDING SCHOOL COURSES
The point was made at the School
Board meeting on Monday night
that many students entering the
High School, after comforting with
their parents, select one course Of
study; and then later, at the end of
their second year, perhaps, decide
to change, with the natural result
that they do not get the full benefit
Of the four years schooling in one
course. And the school authorities
point out that the fault lies entire
ly with the decision at the beginning
Of the work. 1t is extremely import
ant, therefore, that the student get
started right by selecting a course
which will not be changed during
the four years. If he wants to train
for commercial and business work,
the business course is the one for
him; but II he is going to college
after he finishes High School, he
ought by all odds to get into the
classical work at the very begin
ming. The High School is under OBJ
legation to prepare for college work
those students who selected the arts
courses. and it cannot evade the re-
sponsibility il 1t fails to do 1t when
the student has studied four years
consistently for entrance into col
lege; but on the other hand it is
important that the students find
themselves rightly placed at the be-
ginning OF the four years so that
there may be no interruption in the
