PHILADSLPHIA Feb, 12.—President Beer, of the Reading Company, present- #4 a plan for ending the mine troubles Gn his. argument before the Strike Com- Mission to-day.

He rapped John Mitchell and bis gids, declaring that the leaders of the miners jntended to enforce their de- _ mands hy the threatened destruction of the mines. ‘The lawlessness in the coal regions, held, was the direct result of “the theorles as to the rights of Ine-workers."" " Mr, Baer was severe also in arraigning the Civic Federation for what it did not flo. Uptform Scale Imposatble. A uniform scale of wages, he declared, was impossible, and added: We have made every effort to con- Vinee Mr, Mitch ® var that it was a forelgn organization, ‘[nterested in a rival and competitive usiness. We could never see the wis- dom of permitting the bituminous coal minets to inject themselves into the @nthracite. mining situation. It has roved to be just as mischievous as we eyed It would be. “In addition to the fact that the Min- ers’ Union was controlled by a hostile faterest, we object to it because we can- Tot delegate to the Miners’ Union or ‘@ny other labor union the right to deter- mine who shall be our employees. ¢ haye the right to employ any thon- At man without discrimination, and this As @ right we will not surrender.
