ANTHRACITE PEAGE 5 BELEVED NEAR 90 Per cent of Unions Opposed o General Strike Wilkesbarre, Pa,, Jan, 22.—Peaca in the upper anthracite field, where for two months the hard coal out- put has been seriously curtailed by the strike of 11,000 miners of the Pennsylvania Coal company and where conditions in the industry generally have been uncertain, with threats of a general walkout of the 60,000 workers, was believed by offf- clals of the United Mine Workers today 4§ be near at hand. Danger of a general strike in sympathy with the Pennsylvania men, for the present at least, has been averted, the general grievance committedy representing the men of district No. 1, having decided at a meeting last ‘night not to take 'a district-wide strike vote. The mecting -was callad expressly for that purpose, but it was said by union officials that the grievance committee realized the proposition would be defeated and decided not to present it. It was reported that no woman with convinced. $1.25 Ribbed Shi and Drawers 79q $2.00 90 por cent of the local unions in . Flannel the district were opposed to a gen- ' s oral strike order. Pajamas Leaders of the miners’ organiza- tion today predicted an early set- tlement of the Pennsylvania com- pany's walkout and a resumption of operations throughout the district. They based their optimism on a peace proposal submitted by the executive committee of the general grievance committee, which they deelared was the inost encouraging sign since the strike became effec- tive November 25. The executive committee, whose plan was approved by the general body, suggested that a meeting be arranged with the commission ap- pointed by International President John L. Lewis to investigite the local situation, in an effort to ad- st the Pennsylvania strike. The plan provides that the revoked charters of the locals be restored with all fights and privileges and that no discrimination be shown against the strikers. Neal J. Ferry, chairman of the {nternational commission, said this meeting probably would be held to- day or tomorrow in Scranton.
