Among other things, the article points out that during the war labor’s share of each dollar paid for coal shrank to 84.8 per cent, a little more than four- fifths of the pre-war figure, while the operator’s share increased 400 per cent, The Dial says that if the operators were content with only double their pre-war profits they could make a 80 per cent increase in wages without transferring one cent of the burden to the public in the form of an increase in coal prices. The article also points out that the demand of the miners for a five-day week and a six-hour day constitutes a demand for 250 work- ing days a year, or 8 to 21 per cent more days per. year than they have ever worked in the history of the AAmerican coal industry. “Under the present regime of busi- nesslike bungling,” says the article, “it is more profitable to waste nearly 50 per cent of all the coal that is mined than to save it by carefully standardized methods of operation. If the miners go on digging nearly two tons-for every ton made available for consumption, it is probable that the fuel supply of the country will be ex- hausted in 100 years.” Unscientific management, says the Dial writer, causes 30 per cent lost time, - with consequent tendency to keep workers longer hours during the remaining time. He goes on to say: “The welfare of our great common- wealth makes it imperative that the natural resources be placed at the service of society to the fullest extent known to 'science and engineering; that the plundering of our mineral and human resources shall cease and that undeveloped possibilities shall be. real- ized for the benefit of the country. “As opposed to this, the present organization for operating our coal mines is unable to.render this enlarg- ed service; for it is equipped to do merely what it does; that is, sell the public such service as it can at a price. Since the service is inadequate, perpetuation of this regime means ruin to the country. Satisfaction of the new economic problem of the coun- try means a modification of the pres-- ent regime. : W “The answer must be sought * * .* in organization of production for con- sumption not for sale and the subse- quent division of revenues between those who had and those who did. “The embryo of such a mechanjsm was tested during the war. We ascer- tained the needs of our army and the allies. We gave the authority to those who, we thought, knew what to do and how to do it. lected, not elected. The criterion was not the cost, neither the profit, but «service in the promotion of our com- mon aim. > ! : “This mechanism won the war. Let us use it to win the peace.” The writer of the Dial article is Walter N. Polakov, a consulting engi- neer of note. - During the war he was ' enrolled by the government as a power expert for the Emergency Fleet cor- He undertook a survey of the coal situation for the Dial, and verified his own- figures- by those of the United States geological survey. poration. i GROW HOME MEAT The cheapest meat a farmer can . use is the product of his own farm. i |- This is also true of the suburban or % b | town farmer who fattens one or two - 7 g kitchen ‘and’ truck-garden | | hogs. “on Capable men*were se- ADVERTISEMENTS . smssussnesn to Table Tempting fish, direct from the sparkling waters, frozen solid, with their goodness, purity and sea flavor fully preserved.
