TITC JIORXIXG OREGOXIAX, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY II, 1932 DESIRE TO PROVOKE COAL STRIKE DENIED' Mr. Lewis' Statement Starts Wide Discussion. WAGE SCALE DISCUSSED eifle highway extending south from Monmouth to the Benton county line, will be heard by Judge Keily at Dallas Friday. This announcement waa made by the state highway de partment here today. The complaint charges that the Polk county court had no right to appropriate market road funds 'for the improvement of the state high way, and that the obligation result ing front the construction of the road would exceed that allowed by law. The state contends that the highway to be improved was designated as state road prior to the time the ap propriation was made, and as result the proceedings were legal. Judge Pipes of Portland has been retailed to represent the plaintiffs, while J. M. Devers, attorney for the highway department, will represent the state. Committee Xot to Ask General In' crease. But to Stand for Present Schedules. INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. 13. So sen eraf increase of wages for soft coal misers, but the direction of ail efforts toward retaining present wage scales. was the policy adopted today by the scale committee of the United Mine Workers of America for submissio to the union's special convention that bietns tomorrow, according to semi' official information received by con vention delegates. The committee's report o wage de. mands to be sought as the basis of new agreements with operators, ef feclive April 1. was adopted finally at a lone afternoon seas. on. Despite the announcement of th committee, which included the 27 dis trii-t presidents of the union, their re' port was understood to Include no proposal of a strike, and likewise made no demand for adoption of the eix-hour day, five-day. week as pro poaed by the demands of 1S13. F.nul Stateaaeat Iaaaed. The only comment on the poaeibll Ity of a strike was that of Interna tior.il President John 1- Lewis, who issued this formal statement: "The LniieiJ Mine Workers of Amer lea do not desire a strike. We pro- pts to do everything possible In a proper way to prevent such an occur rence. J, feel sure when the conven tion has finished its work, the public will reaiixe this fact. The committee's decision on the wage policy as interpreted by dele gates was that a stand by the union to preserve basic rates of pay i nouncinr primarily the central com petitive field, would not preclude de mands for some increase within vari oils fields. Removal of numerous dif ferentials in pay. said by miners' offi cials to be Inequitable, were included In the committee report. While the demands, as framed by the committee and. as adopted by the convention, will apply specifically to the central competitive field, compris ing Illinois. Indiana. Ohio and west ern Pennsylvania, they will affect the entire soft coal industry In union fields, for wages of the outlying dis tricta are based on the central field t Wn 91.08 Tea. The present basic wages are $1.0g a ton pick mining in Indiana and I 111 nois. and $1.11 In the Ohio Hocking Valley and the western Pennsylvania bituminous district. Machine mining wage rates are from to 17 cents ton less than the pick mining wages. Forty per cent of these wage rates waa said by union officials to repre sent increases gained for the miners fclnee 1917. the total amount of in creases for pick mining being 4 i cents a ton. Aside from the delegates interest in the wage proposals, considerable dis cussion was provoked by Mr. Lewis' statement disavowing any desire to provoke a strike. In this connection Delegates si'id that a proposal to back up the demands with a declaration in favor of a strike would be submitted to the convention for adoption. Delay in the presentation of the committee report on the demands is expected by the attitude of the anti- administration element within the union seeking to seat Kansas dele Kates who were expelled from the union because of their stand with Alexander llowat. Kansas ex-president, who refused to order strikers back to work as directed by the union convention last September. SAFE RESISTS EXPLOSION YEGGS WORK IX FLAIX VIEW I KO.M STREET AT XIGIIT.

The party called may be unwiTEng to leave a particular household duty may be in another part of the home beyond closed doors may be chatting with a neighbor may be marketing may be slow in answering. Strange, but true, calls are sometimes designedly unanswered. Telephone records show that trie great majority of "don't answer" re ports come from residence calls. In business, where it is a matter of dollars and cent!s, it is always the assigned duty of some one to be within sound of the telephone bell. "They don't answer" is the state ment of a situation absolutely beyond the control of the telephone operator. !Jl3jr I r. i ' ' . i ! f The Pacific Telephone And Telegraph Company
