LONDON, April "a crisis in
the British coal industry seemed a
certainty today when a conference
of miners voted to adhere to their
policy of opposing wage reductions,
the lengthening of hours Of labor
and the substitution of agreements
by districts instead of NATIONAL
agreements.
The decision of the conference is
tantamount to rejection of q
large portion OF the recommends
tions of the Royal Coal Commission.
The government subsidy expires
May /, and at that time the opera
tors threaten to reduce wages.
which action would undoubtedly
lead to national coal strike, per-
haps spreading to other industries.
