E SERIOUS,’ MINERS
SAY OF ROYALTY DEMANDS
WARN OWNERS ‘NOT TO LAUGH’
Committee Is Chosen to Weigh Coal Pact in Closed Hearings.
en WASHINGTON, Mafch 3 (U.P). ~The United Mine Workers served notice today that “we are serious” in the demand for a royalty on soft coal to raise a $60,000,000—year
“rainy day” fund.
Thomas Kennedy, secretary-treas-urer of the miners, replied to operators’ criticism of royalty and wage demands in the third day of their collective bargaining conference. Some operators had expressed be-
lief the demand for a royalty off
10 cents a ton was a mere smokescreen. Kennedy said all the unjon demands, including the royalty, would add only 28 cents a ton-to the production cost of coal. The operators had put the figure at 65 cents.
“You cannot laugh this royalty
proposition out of the conference,” Kennedy said. “It's sound, it has
“merit and we are serious about it.”
Two Statisticians Used
Kennedy recalled. that Charles O'Neill,- president of the Pennsylvania central coal operators, had said that two statisticians, “working in. two different hotdls,” had arrived at the 65-cent figure. Kennedy sald he hoped that. the arithmetic had. not been _done in cocktail lounges. . The" statisticians, he said, “certainly were in great spirits when
“they. worked out these figures.”
APPROXIMATELY 8800 Boy | Scouts and CuB Scouts in the Central Indiana council will be | busy this month and next to fill |

Results of those discussions will probably determine whethér there is! a coal strike April 1 when the

The producers’ spokesman ‘who
