COAL OPERATORS
IN OHIO NOT To
ATTEND FARLEY
Decline Davis Request to
Meet With Miners in Con-
ference to Negotiate a
New Scale of Wages.

Columbus. O., March IL
Southern Ohio coal operators to-
day declined the request Of Sec
rotary of Labor Davis to meet
with miners in joint conference
to arrange a wage scale for the
central competitive field.
1.-THE operators Of southern
Ohio cannot participate in such
q conference" a reply to Secre-
tary Davis letter requesting the
meeting said, but they will meet
with the representatives of the
mine workers of this district at
any time to discuss a wage scale
and working conditions that are
fair TO the miners and operators
Of southern Ohio" with the un-
Outstanding that such a confer
ence would not discuss the check
off.
Have Violated Agreement.
The letter declares that the
present demands of the miners
have been rejected by every in
terState conference in the last
three years, and that the United
Mine Workers Of America have
violated every agreement made by
them since 1910.
The threatened suspension of
bituminous coal mining resulted
from action by the southern Ohio
operators in first refusing to join
in a central states wage confer
ence that was to have been held
at Pittsburgh in January, and in
a later conference scheduled for
