T. v. 0'Connor 'UphoIds High
Wages Paid Seamen on
Trade Fleet Vessels.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Chairman T. V. O'Connor OF the
Shipping Board yesterday declared high
wages paid American seamen on Amer
ican vessels, compared with the pay
received by seamen on foreign ships, dc
not constitute "so-called handicap" to
the development of this country's mer-
chant marine.
Chairman O'Connor said that numer-
Gus suggestions had reached the Ship
ping Board that the so-called handi-
caps to American shipping growing out
of higher material and labor costs in
the United States as compared with
those of foreign nations will prevent
development of our merchant marine as
intended by Congress-"
Cost Of Material as Factor.
''AS to the cost of material going into
the construction of vessels, think that
American methods of production will
soon find way to meet the lower costs
OF foreign countries" he continued
Congress already has taken steps to
equalize existing differentials and it is
safe to say that American business can
be relied upon to do the rest. But in
the matter OF higher pay for officers and
crews, let me be definite in stating that
the best bargain America has got is an
American sailor on deck of an American
ship"
Pointing out that only S per cent of
the cost of operating vessels goes for
wages, Chairman O'Connor said that
American Shipowners, shippers and
travellers have more adequate assurance
OF safe, efficient and speedy transporta-
ton when ships are manned by well
paid, fed and quartered crews.
Well Paid Man Promotes Economy.
Critics who have raised the issue of
wages and conditions provided for
American seamen," he concluded, de
clare that the spirit which urged the old
clipper ship sailor to greater effort and
resulted in his outsailing the merchant
fleets OF the world is dead I say that
1t isn't. and that whether in the engine
room or on the deck, high-priced man
makes for economy in transportation
and for safety of lives and property"

MINERS
And Operators Fail to Agree
On Pay

Indianapolis, Ind. U. L. N. 81
After daily conference over a period
of four weeks, Indiana miners and
operators have failed to agree on
wage schedule to take the place of
the Jacksonville agreement. The min
ers, it is understood, have held out
for the Illinois scale recently adopted,
although some local unions in south
ern Indiana declared that nothing but
the Jacksonville scale of $3.50 a day
would be acceptable. The Illinois
scale calls for $6l0 day. Operators
have insisted that the Ohio scale of
$5 a day be the basis for negotiations
but this got nowhere with the miners.
A number of Indiana mines have
temporary agreements with the union
with the Jacksonville scale as the
base. These mines, it is understood,
will continue to work while all others
will be closed down until contract
is signed.
