OPERATOR. MINER INPAsSE HOLDS
Neither Side Seems Willing to
 Make Concessions

New York, Jan, s Cp--Tho an- thracto joint wage conference was continued again today with individ nal members prepared to stick it out" until tho "other side" Is ready to quit and move Il sine die ad- Journment,
 Yesterdays discussion in the effort to bring an end to the hard coal strike, now in it's fifth month, was described us 'perfunctory," Today's meeting, so far as tho situation ap- peared on the surface, promised nothing better.
 Alvan Marklo of Hazleton, Pa, stockholder in large independent anthracite producing company. and chairman Of the joint conference, is holding the six miners and six oper- ators together in hope eventually they will hit upon some solution that will lead 10 breaking the dead lock, Six months ago at Atlantic City the miners formally presented their demands for new contract and were given an answer the samo day that they were not acceptable, All alternative plans since offered have likewise been rejected by one side or the other.
New Britain herald., 1926-01-08

The big issue is arbitration. The operators are willing to arbitrate all questions on which no agreement can be reached. The miners want to negotiate Il contract without calling in outside parties, The workers de- clare 1t unfair to ask them to ar btrate wages when tho mine own CTS are unwilling to arbitrate the selling price of coal.
 Observers would not be surprised If the conference were adjourned today over the weekend in the hope that tho recess may be utilized by both sides for conferences with leaders in their ranks.
 Representatives of the labor de- partmcnts Of the federal government and the state of Pennsylvania still are in New York waiting for results or for developments that would justify move from Washington or Pennsylvania to bring about set clement.
 Neither operators or miners had any comment to make on the ap- peal 10 some business mons repre- sentatives in Philadelphia to Cover nor Plnchot urging the special ses- sion of the legislature to amend the miners certificate law. They would eliminate those features upon which the present labor monopoly in the industry is built and sustained and yet preserve existing safeguards of life and property"
 The present law provides that Q worker must have two years ex. porience in an anthracite mine as a miners laborer before he can ob- tain q certificate 10 blast coal. Only 10000 of the 15S,O00 mine workers are miners, and so long as these 40,- GOO men are idle no coal can be
