STAND TAKEN BY
SHIPPING BOARD
IS CRITICISED.
Creditors Say the Attitude
Is Rapidly Becoming a
Scandal in the Eyes of
the Maritime World"

New York, March 29,-The COM
mttee representing creditors of
the United States Mail Steamship
company today issued n statement
charging that the attitude taken
towards them by the United states
shipping board is rapidly becom-
ing a scandal in the eyes of the
maritime world"
although congress has set aside
S., $780, 600 for the specific purpose
OF paying the innocent creditors,
continued the statement, 1.-THE ship"
ping board may decline to pay
these bills until the claimants have
gone through costly and almost in
terminable litigation.
1--WE represent soc New York
merchants and contractors who
trying to do their share towards
building up an American merchant
marine, suffered financially to the
extent of about 81 500, 900, W.
knew that the world over where
merchandise is delivered in good
faith to ships, bills therefor are
considered as liens against the
ships.
when the bankruptcy OF the
United States Mail line came we
discovered the government had
turned over $25,000,000 worth Of
it's ships TO a company which had
neither cash nor credit and from
which it had not even required a
bond. The shipping board now
claims the line was responsible for
the debts, not the government"
The creditors committee then
claimed that the shipping board
had used discriminatory tactics in
paying bills.
I'm some cases it appeared" The
statement declared, supplies had
been ordered direct by the ship
ping board for these ships and
those claims were paid Supplies
ordered by Officers of the company
and delivered in equally good ,aith,
have not been paid for.
"Reconditioning of two Of he
ships--the George Washington and
the America--was paid for by the
shipping board because Admiral
Benson promised the work would
be paid for, but because Admiral
Benson forgot to mention some of
the other government owned boats,
operated under the same charters,
the bills were not paid"

MINERS RECEIVE
4 Saving WAGE
OPERATOR AYERS
Bank Deposits in the An
thraCite District Have In
creased $4,000 in the
Last Two Years, Says.


New York March 29.--With a
preliminary declaration that "resi-
dents of the anthracite mine re-
gion are the most prosperous in
the United States" operators today
launched before the subcommittee
on wage contract negotiations their
fight against the nineteen demands
of the miners as a basis for settle
ment Of the strike set for Aprll !.
Speaking for the operators, ). j.
Warriner, president Of the Lehigh
Coal and Navigation company pro-
duced figures setting forth that
bank deposits in the anthracite dis
trict had increased $4,000 in the
last two wears. This, he said, clear
Nv indicates that the miners already
arc receiving the saving wage
upon which they base their de-
mands for 20 per cent increase
for contract work and 81 per shift
for day labor.
Phillip Murray, vice president OIL
the United Mine Workers OF Amer
lea. countered with a denial that
the operators figures, compiled by
the national industrial conference
board, were based on facts
The industrial board. he said, Is
clear cut open shop. anti-unlon
organization, whose figures are
not authentic but are colored and
thoroughly unreliable. 49,.
Mr.. Warrincr admitted that the
data Of the Industrial board had
been gathered at the request of the
GENERATORS and said the coal pro-
ducers had contributed funds to the
organization. He denied, however,
that the coal operators We're mem-
bers of the board, which lists as
such a score of the larger INDUS
trial corporations.
The conference Of the arbitration
committee failed to take any action
which would halt suspension Of the
work at the anthracite mines sat
urday, Secretary German an
rounced i'm communique lssued
when the session ended.
The saving wage demand OF
the miners was still the point AZ
issue. it was said, with union dele
gates maintaining that costs ana
living in the anthracite regions had
been on the upgrade while wages
we're at a s;anGstill. Supporting
their contention that the pay sched-
ule should be cut in order to make
possible a reduction in the cost OF
coal to the consumer, the operators
contended that, while ! liners de-
mand a 20 per cent raise in wages,
living costs have dropped 20 per
cent since July, 1920.
