Coal Strikers Requested To Resume Work
Roosevelt Asks Miners To Start Labors at Once Por Less Wages
New Pay Rate Represents Compromise Between 1 wo Schedules
WASHINGTON, April 22—(U.P)— President Roosevelt today asked striking southern coal miners "to Bo back to work at once’ under reduced wage schedules prescribed b> NRA Administrator Hugh 3 ! Johnson.
I The new wages represent a com promise between the original code | :ntes and the much higher sched-j vie which Johnson ordered on April 1.
j For the Alabama distrlet, center \ l ot the controversy, the new tato J is $3.80, an Increase of 40 cents a i Csy over the original code rate, but 80 cents less than Johnson’s April j order of $4.60.
April 1 Rate HU
Southern operators bitterly attacked the April 1 rate, which /iped out most of their differen-i ‘.ifil over the northern $5 wage More than 20,000 miners struck wnen the operators obtained an injunction.
I Mr. Roosevelt agreed that the I -south's traditional lower wag? j standards be recognized but he warned that “on the other hand, no region has any right, by de-I ressing its labor, wages and hours, to Invade with its cheaper production an area of higher wages and hours and thus to impose its tower standards on an area of higher standards.’’
Guard Against Underselling
To guard against any such underselling. Johnson forebadr Alabama district operators to sell any coal ln competing areas at less than the prices charged ln those areas.
The committee of the southern West Virginia smokeless coal code, authority expressed gratification hat General Johnson made wage lates expressly subject to revision in the light of further NRA Investigation.
"We are satisfied,” they saH. "that the NRA findings wlll conclusively prove the fact that the miners' earnings ln Pennsylvanli and Ohio are shamefully low while tnose ln the smokeless fields are much higher than originally contemplated by the NRA.”
