Arbitration Plan In Doubt
Districts Which Have Re1l|aps'

Under Dispute.

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Lead-
ers Of the mine workers union and
operators Of anthracite and bttum-
inous mines who got President
Harding's offer of arbitration yes
terday as the government solution
of the suspension of operations in
union fields were still in the
throes of decision today over &C
ceptance or refusal. but semi
officially it was stated the govern
ment exeptecd to have answers
Saturday. J$5
In spite Of a careful guarding OF
statements there was a degree OF
dissatisfaction with the terms OF
the Presidents offer on both sides
and some question as to the out
come.
a work resumption within two
weeks, however, it was indicated
might solve this without difficulty,
but If not priority orders through
the Interstate Commerce Commls-
sion might be used to direct ship
ments Of non-union coal preferen'
TALLY to the territory concerned
This constituted a policy question
held in suspension.
$ Mine operators in the union field
who have kept mines closed down
three months, in the belief that
wage reduction was necessary to
lower production cost and lower
prices to meet levels of other com
5modities, found most difficulty in
accepting the Presidents arbltre-
tion offer, which would continue
the wartime mining wage scales
for what they regard as an inde:
finite period of time Using the un-
ion day laborers wages under
ground Of $3.50 to illustrate their
argument they point out that non
union fields with day laborer
wage rate Of around SIS have con
tinued expanding operations fol
all OF the period.
In the union circles, the d1spos-
ition is to question where the ar
bitra ton would leave the union
districts in West Virginia, Wash
ington state and the Southwest
which have more or less relapsed
to non-union operations. There IS
also a. disposition to consider wha
the arbitration would do for the
new unions # which successfully

Small Operators Accused Of Of
Profiteering--- Confer

WASHINGTON, July 11-Rep-
resentatives of non-union coal op-
orators will be called together the
end OF this week. to consider ways
of dealing with smaller operators
who are sellig coal at prices ~
advance of the maximum recently
approved by voluntary action, Sec
retary Hoover said today.
Secretary Hoover said the larg-
er non-union operators had been
abiding blythe price agreements
faithfully but the smaller opera
tors were getting entirely out OF
hand, and in some places were
raising prices as much as SO cents
each week. Small operators IN
Western Ken lucky and one Penn
sylvania district, he said, were ths
worst offenders against the fair
price maximum.
Attraction Of the open market,
he asserted. had proved too much
for the smaller non-unlon opera
tors, and while the larger opera
tors are holding prices at tn:
mine to from $3.50 to So although
being offered as high as 81 a ton.
Smaller operators are charging as
high as. $3.75 a ton and in the
Western Kentucky and Pennsylss
vani a fields as high as S or s6 q
9 ton 49, I ! - ~ =.

they cannot hold the smaller oper-

eminent will have to take some
action to protect the public: The

said, would be called together IN

BRICK PAVEMENT
NOW ADVOCATED D. a! Il D
County Court Still Undecided
on Type OF Surface for
MorgantoWn Ave-

Should a so foot brick pave
ment or a 36 foot asphalt surface
be placed on Morgantown avenue!
This is the question which is now
confronting the County Court and
which is causing quite a d1Her-
ence of opinion among property
owners along MorgantoWn avenue. e.
The County Court was in ses-
sion for an hour this morning Tor
the purpose Of hearing a further
discussion of the matter. Some
fifty or more prominent persons
of the city attended the meeting
and entered into the discussion.
It was almost the unanimous opln-
ion Of those at the meeting this
morning that the County Court
should see that brick was used
instead of asphalt. Representa-
tives Of the Monongahelas PoWer
& Railway Co, the Owens Bottle
Co., and the Domestic Coke COR
poration, all expressed their de-
sire to have Morgantown avenue
paved with brick.
The meeting this morning was
the first one open discussion OF
the matter since Saturday when
about fifty residents OF Morgan
town avenue, mostly women, ap-
peared and asked the County
Court to decide on a SO foot
asphalt street.
AS the court was busy dec1d-
ing upon the material to be used
in the improvement OF Morgan
town avenue, little time was given
to the consideration or bids. Al
press time this afternoon, the
court had not granted any con-
tracts IN any Of the ten Union Dis
trict road projects. ssa
