present strike is costing S5,000,000
a day, and the reward of this sacri-
hce is public suffering. The charge
is flatly made that the average net
incme of 3l,979 miners in the Cen
tral Pennsylvania district in 1921
was S760. This means that a miner
must provide for the support of his
family on $l4,60 a week. 1t may be
all very we'll to state that the men
work only l22 days year, which is
two and one-third days a week and
therefore their rate of pay is excess

problem is one of unemployment
rather than of wages, and it should
be approached from that angle. An
industry that employs vast armies Of

cannot keep them employed the rest
