WORKERS GET IT ALL

The coal industry never ceases
its efforts to reduce costs by in
creasing efficiency. One of the
primary means OF achieving this
is more mechanization of mining
operations. Hundreds of millions
of dollars have been spent to that
end in the past, and hundreds of
millions more will be spent in the
future.
However, neither the mine own
ers nor coal consumers have re-
ceived any of the financial fruits
of increased efficiency. Fred S.
Mcconnell, president of the Ma
tional Coal Association, brought
this out in a recent speech. In
1918, it took $4,000 men to mine
579, 900, 900 tons of coal. In 1915,
almost the same amount was
mined by $4,000 workers "a re-
duction of 38 per cent of men re-
quired for the equivalent output.
But. he went on, "All of the cost
reduction flowing from increased
productivity through mechanical
ton has been more than offset by
rising labor costs. All of the saw
ings resulting from the introduc-
ton of labor saving machinery,
and more, have gone to the miner
in increased wages. The real la
Dor cost increased rs per cent
per ton between 1917 and 1916"
No one argues that labor should
not share equitably in the bene-
fits of industrial progress. But it
certainly does not seem reason
able that labor should get it ALL
Last year, which was a year of
high demand, the soft coal indus
try earned less than " per cent
on its 100000, 900 investment.
After the payment of ordinary op-
Grating expenses and not counting
development and some other costs
the operators had left only about
4 cents per dollar sales at the
mines. The coal miner, and no
one else, is the favored man in
the coal industry today.
