1CATE MINE
SHE LENGTH
Philadelphia, Aug. 29 (AP)
The mine mule In the next 43
hours Is expected to forecast
whether the anthracite suspension
which goes Into effect Monday at
midnight is to be long or short.
If mules are brought to the sur
faco for tho shutdown it will signi
fy the belief that the mines will
be cloaed a considerable time.
If mules remain below It will
indicate the operators' expectation
of a brief suspension.
Mules are to be- brought to the
surface, however, in parts of dis
trict number 1, the largest of the
threo union principalities, say ad
vices from Wilkesbarre.
Operators and miners have
agreed after 24 hours' deadlock on
terms of employment for the 10,
000 maintenance men who will re
main in the mines to prevent flood
Ing, cave-ins and deterioration,
They will be secured against re
placement by monthly men on
company payrolls and will receive
any pay increase that may be sub
rtoquently negotiated, retroactive
from September 1.
A statement of future policy Is
sued by the mine owners aroused
considerable opposition among the
miners.
W. W. Inglis,' chairman, tn re
porting for the operators scale
committee to a meeting of tne in
dustry on the conduct of the re
cent futile scale negotiation made
the following recommendations:
'In view of the present situation
your committee strongly recom
mends that the operators maintain
a firm stand for arbitration of the
present differences to prevent a
recurrence of interruption such as
the one about to start.
"It believes that any settlement
effected should be of a permanent
nature, providing for a readjust
ment of the wage scale from time
to time to allow prices for our pro
duct that will enable It to move
freely in competition with other
fuels."
