STUDY OF LABOR
 SUPPLY IS BEGUN
National Bureau of Economic Re-
 search Starts Investigation

An investigation of migration and labor supply has been begun by the National Bureau. of Economic Re- search at the request of the National Research Council. The work will be done by Dr. Harry Jerome under the supervision of the bureaus di- rector of research, Dr. Wesley C.. Mitchell Outlining the bureaus pur- pose in undertaking this study, Dr. Mitchell says:
 Since the National Bureau of Economic Research aims to aid all thoughtful men, however divergent their views of public policy, to base their discussions of objective know ledge as distinguished from subjective opinion it is keenly interested in the series of investigations into Human Migration, inaugurated by the Ma tional Research Council
 There are few public questions on which men now differ more sharply than on the wisdom of maintaining, relaxing, or abolishing the present restrictions upon immigration into the United States.
 The Research Council, represent ing the scientific interests of the country, halds that the national po1i- cy should be shaped in the light of the best obtainable knowledge of the causes and effects of mass nave ments of population from one coun- try to another.
 To gain such knowledge 1t is nec- essary to enlist the cooperation of anthropology, sanitary science. psv- chology, economics and sociology. Ae- cordlngly, committee of the Council has been appointed to select qualified investigators and to secure such CO., ordination of their work as is neces- sary. But each group of investiga- tors will define it's special problems, chose its own methods of work, and publish. the results.
 This committee on scientific problems of human migration, under the chaIrmanship of Dr. Robert Nj. Yerkes, has asked the National Bu- reau of Economic Research to under take a study of the relation of rnigra- ton to the supply of labor"

MINE ACCIDENTS
 COST l53 LIVES
 IN LAST MONTH

Accidents at coal mines throughout the United States during October re- suited in the death of I53 employees, according to reports received from state mine inspectors by the Bureau of Mines of the Department of the Interior. The output of coal during the month was 57,8o5,ooo tons; hence the fatality rate was 264 per mill lion tons mined. The corresponding rate for October last year was 3.83. Of the I53 fatalities during the month, I2o occurred at bituminous mines throughout the country, indicating a rate of 2.o2 per million tons, and A fatalities occurred at the anthracite mines ill Pennsylvania, indicating a rate of 2.75. In October last year the bituminous rate was 3.oo and the anthracite rate was 3.48. The fatality rate for October, 1923, materially de- clined for both classes of mines.
 The total number of fatal accidents at all coal mines reported to the Btu reau of Mines for the first 10 months of 1923 was 2,o5o, representing 3.7o fatalities per million tons, as com pared with I,443 fatalities in the cor responding period last year, repre- senting a rate of 4o8. The frequency of fatal accidents in 1923 has there fore declined nearly per cent. The bituminous rate for the same TO- month periods fell from 38o to 3.54, a reduction of 9 per cent. The an thracite rate declined from s.75 to 5.26, reduction of 8H per cent.
 A gas explosion at the Midwest mine, Palisades, Colorado, on October 7, in which six lives were lost, brought the total number of major disasters in 1923 to eight, with an aggregate loss of 26>> lives Jas compared with 10 similar disasters during the period from January to October last year causing loss of 100 lives. To the end of Ocotber, 1923, the major dis asters have caused I2.6 per cent. of all deaths by accidents at coal mines; in 1922, during the same 10 months, similar disasters caused 6.o per cent fthe deaths from all causes.
 Comparing the record for the first 10 months of 1923 with the cores bonding period last year, the reports show reduction in the frequency of deaths from falls of roof and coal, hau1age, explosives, and electricity, and an increase in the number of deaths due to explosions of gas and coal dust.

Constitution Ignored;
 Convicts Are Exploited

Oklahoma City, Okla, Dec 1.-The shirt factory in the state penitentiary at McAlster Is in operation despite con trary claims made just prior to the re- cent convention of the state federation of Labor. At that time 1t was stated that the contract with the Reliance man ufacturing company had been cancelled and that that concerns machinery must be taken out of the pententiary
 Editor Purdy of the Oklahoma Fed erationist states that the governor knew nothing about the order, and that the same condition prevails in the office of the board of affairs.
 After all the buck passing had been indulged in," says the labor editor, "the onN thing that seemed to be certain was that the shirt factory is still in opera tion i'll violation of the constitution of the state of Oklahoma, and likely to continue to operate for some time"

WAGE INCREASES
 FOR TWO CLASSES
 OF RAILROAD MEN
Labor Board Announces Boosts and Rule Changes for Telegraphers
 and Station Agents

Chicago, Dec. 1,-Increases in wages affecting approximately $500 railroad telegraphers and station agents and az gregating approximately $364,482, were awarded in decision announced this week by the United States Railroad La boar Board. The board explained that 1t had attempted to correct existing in equalities without attempting standardi- ration and without granting general in crease. The payment of punitive rate of time and one-half for overtime to telegraphers and station agents also was awarded, and a few other changes in rules were authorized
 The parties to the case in which the decision was rendered are the Brother hood of Railway Staton Employees, the Order Aof Railroad Telegraphers, and 26 railroad companies The plan pur- sued by the board was to den yincreases on roads where 1t found the existing rates equal to the average paid on com parable roads in the same territory, and to award increases on other roads which would bring their rates up to the aver age paid in their territory by compara- ble roads. In some cases the increases affect one group of employees and not another. They range from two to five cents an hour.
 In dealing with rules, the board 1n the majority of instances, re-ah6ir1ned previous decisions. It is believed that the payment of time and one-half for overtime will result in a material re- duction III the amount of overtime work required It is estimated by M. w. Hart. chief statistician, that If overtime work were required to the present ex- tent under the new rule (which IS not expected) that it would cost the com panies $44o,023 a year. The board held that overtime work is largely in the em- ployers' control.
 On the other hand, the board denied request for punitive rates for work on Sunday and holidays. It cited ruling issued by William c. McAdoo as direc- general of railroads, during federal control, to the effect that such work was expected by the pubic, could not be avoi- ded, and should not be paid for on punitive basis. It added that "the di- rector general took steps" to reduce Sunday work to a minimum, that rail- road management, "as a rule, pursue the same course" and that this board has expressed like desire"
