MINE OWNERS TELL

Want Coming Strike to Be
 Flight to a Finish"

Washington, March 22.-Coal op- orators who face the prospect of 9 strike of their employees April 1, but who still refuse to enter national con- ference with the coal miners union are not controlled by mere madness, but determination to cure a deep seated disorder" George H. Gushing, managing director of the American wholesale coal association, declared today in an address before the Wash ington City club.
 Federal court indictments which have charged operators of union mines with conspiring with the min CTS union in endeavors to fix coal prices and damage non-union coal miners were held by MT. Cushing as 1 largely responsible for the unwilling ness of the coal operators to confer
 Mir. Gushing declared that wages must l come down in the mines as illustrated by "the amazing fact that under the present scale a practical miner can earn fully $5,o0o a year though the miners know that they dare not earn | all the scale allows"
 | Strike Against Public They know that if the public should realize how much a practical | miner may earn," Mir. Cushing add ] ed, "the people would refuse to pay the price for coal which such a wage scale fixes They know therefore that their rate would be cut Labor is not striking against the coal operators
 the railroad managers or the manu- 1 facturer, it is striking against the
 public. The public does not know to what extent the mine payroll has
 been padded. It does know that ii is compelled to pay a price for coal against which it rebels The coal
 operator stands at a point where h,

must see the cause on one side and the effect on the other, He has to turn about and fight, He has decided to strike at the real cause and he Is going into this wage battle to clean the mines of the shirkers and the payroll padders."
 MT. Cushing asked his audience to "let 1t be fair fight to a finish" and to refrain from ''prodding the gov ernment until 1t steps in,"

Washington, D. C., March 22.-The cost of living is going to rise again the period of price declines that be- gan more than year ago is practic. ally ended, in the judgment of off. cials of those branches of the govern ment who study economic causes and influences.
 Rising wholesale prices supply the evidence upon which the officials base their judgment of what the next few months will bring to consumers throughout the entire country. Food clothing and other necessities vii cost more during April, May and June than now.
 Rents are going down in the face of a movement that has the earmark! of a nationwide building boom. Con struction is being undertaken at the rate of more than $200,000,000 { month in this-the dull season fol contractors.
