and the miners held in March, 1922,

reply supplement the series of ar
ticles in the April Review which
are calculated to clarity many of the
points at issue between the parties
in the present controversy. The
study of earnings and hours in 20
representative collieries of Pennsyl-
vania shows less overmanning and
overproduction than in the bitumin-
Gus industry. since there was an
average of 2877 days worked dur
ing the year ending October 81, 1921,
in these anthracite mines, while a
previous study of the operation of
bituminous mines showed a very high
percentage Of mines entirely idle
during the fall and early winter of
1922. The overdevelopment of the
bituminous industry is further stress
ed in a report Of a special study of
employment conditions which shows
that the average number of days of
operation in each year for the past
% years has been only PA, due
largely to the operation of many
more mines than are necessary to

80 per cent of the mines and GA per
cent of the miners working 304 days.
OVerdevelopment supplemented by
business depression and seasonal de-
mands are the three most important
elements in the time lost by those
engaged in the bituminous coal-min-
ing industry. and the large number
of small mines which have been
opened in recent years has tended to
compicate further the problem of
the necessary sterilization of the
industry.
A survey of the volume of employ
ment in March in a number of rep
resentative industries shows a con-
tinuing improvement in the number
employed and in the amount of mon
ey paid to employees. An increase of
7.3 per cent in the pay rolls of auto
mobile factories and of 81 per cent
each in the iron and steel industry
and cigar manufacturing is shown,
while reduction of 33 per cent in
the cotton manufacturing pay rolls
was due both to wage reductions and
to strikes involving a large number
of textile workers.
A reduction in the annual number
of strikes in the past two years is
Indicated by a table showing the re-
ported number of strikes in the Uni
ted States for each year, 1916 to
1921. The largest strike during the
year, that of marine workers, in
volved about 100000 workers and
included all the principal ports in
the country. About 80 per cent of
the strikes in 1921 were due to pro-
posed wage reductions. The Division
Of Cancellation assisted in adjusting
8 of the q disputes which were
brought before it in March, 1922,
while on April there were 40 cases
pending before the department of
which had not yet reached the
strike stage.

Sheep came in for shearing from
the ranges near Centralia, Wash,
with a luxuriant growth of moss on
their backs which prevented the
fleece from being sold as the wool
was not worth the expense of shear
ing. During the winter the flocks
fed in the open country and the wool
became drenched in the misty rains,
and. mixed with the soil of the feed
ing pens, formed the basis for the
formation of the fungus moss.
