tive of making State or district wage
agreements.

tween the international president Of the
United Mine Workers. John i. Lewis,
and President harrington of the Illinois
miners Secretary Davis said in a
statement on the question of local adj
justinent, regarding separate State con-
.ferences, indicates there will be no move
TO secure separate State agreements in

per cent. during the last seven weeks,
or an increase of about 100000 tons
daily. the bulk OF which goes into stor-
age and indicates a further material in
crease in coal surplus
The central competitive field includes
the States OF Pennsylvania, Indiana,
Ohio. Illinois and part of West Vir-
ginia. where. under previous arrange
ments in the industry. a practically uni
form scale of wages has been adopted
under contracts between the unions and
mine operators. This central field con-
tract has been used as basis for wage
contracts in all the outlying fields in ;he
