’ THE DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 7, 1927 Page re ILLINOIS MINER UNION AND BOSS | TALKING TERMS Rumor Lockout Will End With Jacksonville Scale CHICAGO, Sept. 6.—Termination of the coal lock-out that has tied up | soft coal mining in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Western Pennsylvania may result tomorrow from a conference of officials of the mine operators and the United Mine Workers’ Union here, it was reported today. A new wage agreement, based on the Jacksonville wage scale, is. in sight, and tentative agreements have already been reached by both parties of the conflict, it was said. That the strike has been definitely settled was denied by C. E. McLaugh- lin, secretary of the Illigois Coal Op- erators’ Association. There have been numerous abortive conferences between the officials of District 12 of the U. M. W. A., in which is Illinois, but tho the reaction- ary district officers of the union -have tried several times to quit the fight on the basis of a formal ‘acceptance of the Jacksonville scale, with actual concessions in the matter of unpaid work, ete., these have been opposed | both by the miners and the operators. The miners demand no wage cut, how- ever cleverly disguised, and the bosses want a clear-cut victory, for its ef- fect in crushing down the morale of the workers.
