Coal Operator
Answers ExtOrtiOn
Charges of ]. Lewis

Harrisburg, Pa, Oct. 10 - (AP) -
Samuel D. Warmer, chairman of the
anthracite operators conference, in
an address before the Pennsylvania
state chamber of commerce tonight
on the anthracite situation, replied
to the Atlantic City speech Of John
L. Lewis, president of the United
Mine Workers, in which the union
leader said the operators extorted 16
to 20 millions annually from the pub
lie and that the industry had butch
cred" more than 100000 employees
since 1870.
On the extortion charge Mr.. War
riner said:
1T is true that the industry did
last April standardize it's sizes of
coal. Some sizes were made slightly
larger and some were made smaller.
This was done at the urgent re-
quest of the retail trade. who de-
sired more completely to conform TO
the requirements Of their customers,
but only after the operators made
careful experiments as to the feast
bility of the changes and subjected
the new sizes to most careful ana
lytical and engineering tests, and had
been assured that no advantage
would DE taken OF the puDiiC, WHICH
would be protected in any action
that might be taken.
THE second charge he makes,
namely, that the industry has been a
slaughterhouse, where, since 1870,
100000 employees have been butch
cred, is equally false. Analyze, for
yourselves these figures. He implies
at least, If he does not say, that an
average of $4,000 men annually have
been killed in the anthracite indus
try. The statistics of the mine in
spection bureau of Pennsylvania
show that since 1870 the fatal acct
dents have totalled 23.745 or an an
nual average of 431.7."
