SAME OLD ARGUMENT

The have informed Secretary of Labor Davis
that they consider reductions and that when
present contracts with the operators expire next spring
they will probably ask for further increases They base their
position on the ecause of the lack of steady employ
ment today cannot make living at the wage rate
they receive That fact is probably true but does not
follow that miners too low they would hn that
another rcise would make still difficult to make living
rather Their only hope if they but knew it, lies IN
lowering of wages with consequent stimulation of the coal
market and a higher return to them.
