The Se "Ra SS Ge DIG DEEP Regarding the principle of arbitration there can be no dispute. If the quarrel between coal miners and operators is to be settled at all, it will be by arbitration, either on the basis sug- ‘ by the president or upon some other more nearly satisfactory to the dispu- Ouuside of By carrier, tants. _ But when arbitration comes, it must be con- _ cerned not alone with the simple issue of pres- ' ay wages, upon which the negotiators are deadlocked. Makeshift solutions and patch- work agreements will provide nothing more than a temporary bracing up of the industrial structure which has already come dangerously se to crashing into ruin. Whatever tribunal is chosen to try this case, ‘it must have the authority—and the willing- ness—to gather and study every fact related the industry. Its investigation must go as ep as the mine itself, must extend from the to the coal bin, must spread into the ne of the miner and the office of the owner. conditions under which the miner lives no less pertinent to the issue than the price he gets for his labor and the price the owner ets for his product. Make the operator open his books. Make wholesaler open his books. Make the re- er open his books. Clothe the arbitration d with the power to turn to the public all the evils that have brought about the conflict, and then we will have the basis for a tlement that will eliminate its cause. what we hear of the ex-kaiser’s book, he Y Spank about fighting than writing.
