IF it's true what a college pro
fessor says about marriage-that
the reason there are SO many SPIN
STEERS in New England is that "o-
men there are so intelligent,
men like to marry women VINO

maybe we ought to drop the Whole
idea of higher education for Wo-
men.
What does it profit a woman to
have brains if she can't have a
husband, too?
Statistics tend to back up the
professors statement. For it has
long been known that the more
education a girl gets, the simmer
are her chances of marrying.
Of course, there is mt way we
could double-cross the men so that
the girls of the future could be
both smart and sought after.
We could teach women the art

40-hour week--not John Lewis
is the main issue in the coal strike

THERE is something else too
that the people in the mining
areas know and that is the very
high casualty rate in the mines.
Last year for example, 1880 min
ers were injured in Illinois, they
were hurt to the extent that they
lost Z or more days work.
Hundreds of others were not
reported in the records because
those off less than Z days are
not recorded. Taking into consid-
GRAFTON that the mines worked
on an average of 224 days last
year, it means that miner was
injured i'm Illinois every half hour
during the days the mines
worked!
Last year IS miners lost their
lives in Illinois, which means that
on every third day the mines
worked miner in Illinois was
killed.
These are some of the reasons
the miners are not being taken
in by all the propaganda about
you are striking against the
government" etc. They know
what they are striking for and
they are determined to get it.
The Chicago star. (Chicago, Ill.) 1946-1948, 1946-12-07

has been more than offset by
price increases, but the operators
instead of their profits decreas-
ing actually made over $13,000,-
600 extra. Here's the way they
worked it. The operators were
granted the right to raise the
price of coal 40.5c ton in order
to meet" the wage increase.
This increase in price of coal
Melted the companies a total of
$29, 565, 900 Biased on last years
output of 70 million tons). On the
basis of 224 days worked in 1915
the wage increase cost the op.
orators total of $10,9O5, 08O (31,-
600 miners employed) added to
this is SC a ton for the Welfare
Fund which amounts to $780,
600.
Together the wage increase
and the Welfare Fund costs the
operators $14,705, $50. Take this
from the $29, 565, 900 the opera
tors got by raising the price of
coal and it leaves the Illinois
coal barons cool $14,859,9 500
EXTRA, that is besides the al
ready high profits they have
been making.

Mining facts
By FRANK MUCCI

WEST FRANKFORT, Ill.-The
efforts of the big newspapers to
make the coal strike an issue be-
tween John L. Lewis and the Gov.
eminent is a dismal failure in
the coal mining areas.
The miners want a 40-hour
week with no loss in pay instead
of the present 81 hours. That is
the issue. The miners are tired
working 81 hours a week. which
is absolutely too long to be I'M
foreground without fresh air or
sunshine.
For years TIE miners have
been talking about a 30-hour
week and they haven't given up
that goal, a return to 40 hours
will be a step in that direction.
THE MINERS want a shorter
week but cannot and will not
stand for a drastic cut in weekly
pay. If the miners were to re-
turn to the 10 hour week at the
present hourly rate, their weekly
earnings would amount To $50.36,
tins would be a cut of $24 So from
the present basic weekly pay of
$75.25.
The miners along with the
rest of the people have already
taken a big cut I'm wages i'm the
form of increased prices and
they are i'm no mood for anOth-
er slash.
Another reason for the deter.
mined stand by the miners is
that they Know the Coal Opera
tors are making greater profits
than ever before.
Figures on company profits are
hard to find, but the following
information gives an idea ON the
profits being made.
y
LAST YEAR 31,1O9 Illinois
miners produced II million tons
of coal. In 1923 the output was
IS million tons with 103,536 min
ers on the payrolls, in other
words, the operators got nearly
as much coal last year with IT,
457 FEWER miners as they did
in 1928.
Here is something else the
miners know. Last May the min
ers won a wage increase, which
