week when the operators rejected the
peace plan which previously had been
accepted by the miners. The plan
the operate said. was nothing but
acceptance of what the miners have
been demanding, while the miners
countered with the charge that the
public now can blame only the op
orators for the continuance of the
strike. The main point at issue IS
the check off system. by which the
coal companies collect from the miners
their dues to the union. Some say
that If this system is abolished the
unions would not hold together. Gov.
pinchot'S plan continued the check
off system, but the operators again
turned ii down. The operators de-
clare the way is still open for peace,
as they have advanced a proposal to
the minerS--so far refused.
