Washington, Aug. 30.— (By Associated
Press)—President Wilson today ap-
proved the majority report of the an-
thracite coal commission increasing
wages of anthracite contract miners 20
per cent over present rates. Officials
o fthe anthracite commission said the
joint wage scale composed of miners and
operators had already been called to
meet Wednesday or Thursday to con-
sider application of the awards.
They characterized the meeting of
miners at Wilkesbarre, Pa., last night as
an surgent gathering without authority
to commit the miners to rejection.
Miners employed as company men
were given an increase of 17 j>er cent,
and the same allowed consideration
miners, miner laborers and monthly men.
The findings, the report said, would be a
wage of 52 1,-2 cents an hour for lower
paid men in the anthracite industry.
The president struck out of the report
the provision fixing terms of retroactive
payment under the award, which he said
was outside o fthe commission’s juris-
diction.
Thos. Kennedy, chairman of the
miners’ wage scale committee, had pro-
tested that feature of the award he said.
“Anthracite mine workers will receive
about $18,000,000 in back pay under the
retroactive feature of the award, which
makes it effective April 1. 1920, and the
total increase to the 175.000 miners,” the
commission said, “would be at least
$85,000 000 annually.
The majority report declares that the
award offers no justification for any ad-
vance- in retail prices of coal, but on the
other hand is consistent with a decline
in prices. Any sharp advance in retail
prices, the report added, could not be
charged to the operators, the miners or
the award.
“While the adjudication of any dispute
necessarily results in some form of dis-
satisfaction,” the president said in his
letter to the commission, “I am sure the
spirit which yon have shown will receive
the commendation of the gregt majority
of the American people.”
