Politics Affected

The fact that a presidential election
will be held this year may have some
effect on wage negotiations. 1t is GER
tain that the administration at Wash
ington would not relish a strike in the
midst of the campaign. This leads to
the certainty that pressure will be
brought to bear from Washington to
bring about amicable settlement of
differences.
It is expected the scale committee
will report the latter part Of next
week. On that report may depend the
immediate future of American indus
try. American labor and American
politics.

MINE COMMITTEE
HAS KEY To COAL
STORE OF NATION
Strike Feared if Convention
Demands Increases in
Wages,
By FELIX F. BRUNER

Will there be another Nationwide
coal strike next spring?
The answer to this question may
rest with thirty-one men meeting
nightly in a room in a corner of the
eleventh floor Of the Merchants Bank
building. These men compose the
scale committee of the United Mine
Workers of America.
Starting their sessions Wednesday
night. the committee took up exam
ination of a great mass of resolutions
and suggestions turned in by local
unions from ali over North America.
From these, they will derive a policy
to be presented to the international
convention now in session at Tomlin-
son Hall.
Operators Meet Feb. IL
The convention is almost certain to
approve whatever the scale committee
recommends. With the approval Of
the convention. the recommendations
will comprise the demands which the
miners will ask be put into effect
when the present wage agreement ex-
pires at midnight March 81. If the
recommendations are not accepted by
the operators when they meet with
a committee of miners Feb. II at
Jacksonville, Fla, a Nationwide strike
is almost certain.
Just what the recommendations will
be even the members of the scale
committee, composed Of the presidents
of twenty-eight district organizations
and the three international officers, do
not know
The feeling among miners is that
no large increase in wages viii be de-
manded, if any increase is asked.
Longer Agreement
However. the miners are expected to
ask that an agreement covering
period Of years be entered into, instead
of the brief agreements customary
heretofore. They argue that long
time agreements would do more than
almost any other thing to stabilize
the mining industry in America. They
feel that such an agreement would
result fin a steadier supply of coal at
more constant prices and thus benefit
consumer, operator and miner.
The present meeting may result in
doing away to some extent with the
bugaboo of the nations being faced
constantly with a coal strike.
Increase Demanded
Resolutions on the proposed wage
scale vary greatly. Perhaps the
highest demand is that of the Ohio
miners for q % per cent increase.
Leaders in Illinois are said to want
about 10 per cent, while some other
Districts are said to favor merely con-
tinuance of present scale.
Day men in the mines now receive
$3.50 for an eight-hour day. Pick
men receive $1.09 gross per ton Of
coal dug. There are various other
scales for other types of workers.
With the certainty that operators
viii ask for a decrease. there is some
feeling among miners that it would be
advisable to ask for an increase, so
that if an eventual compromise is
necessary the miners would lose little,
if anything.

net profit of the venture was $1,-948
which with $1,400 in cash subscrip-
tons from the members, cleared up
the indebtedness of the congregation
and left $3.50 dollars in the church
treasury.
The spiritual side of the church
was not neglected, in that twenty-five
members have been secured since the
first Of the year.

CAME WARDEN COMING

Several days ago superintendent
H. A. >Falk of the Sank Centre
public schools, as representative of
the Sank Centre Rod and Gun Club,
discussed the advisability of having a
paid game warden located at Sank
Centre, with Game and Fish Com
missioner j. F. Gould at the State
Capitol, St. Paul. The outcome of the
conference with Mr.. Gould is that a
direct promise has been made that a
paid deputy game warden, located at
Sank Centre, will be appointed to
start work July LIST.
When Mr.. Falk suggested that a
committee be named to confer with
the game and fish commissioner on
this question when he was appoint
ed to look after the business, most of
the members Of the club were skep-
teal as several proceeding attempts
had failed. However, Herb took up
the proposition with his usual vigor
with the result noted above, for all
of which he is entitled to thanks
of the lovers of the conservation of
game, fish, and wild life.
