THE MICHIGAN DAILY IN MINES CAPACITY LDOM There are 150,000 men surplus men employed in the coal industry at the present time, according to Prof. Isador Lubin ,of the economics department. Not only is there a surplus of men, but there are more mines than neces-, sary to supply the country with coal under normal conditions. The actual productive capacity of our coal mines is 640 million tons an- nually, while the largest output ever reached was 580 million tons. This was produced in 1918. Want Present Wages The miners are asking a continu- ance of theipresent wage scale, which is $7 ts $7.50 per day on the average. They are asking for a six-hour day,' fve days a week. This will restrict output, they hope, so that there will be steadier employment in the field. No permanent injury can be done by granting the miners' demands re- garding working hours, according to Professor Lubin. He stated that the average work done by coal miners during the year 1919, which was a good year in the coal industry, wax 30 hoursper week. They are trying to stabilize their working conditions, which at present are very irregular. Depends on Non-union Men "The, success of the strike will de- pend on whether or not the non-union miners will go out," said Professor' Lubin. He added that it would be difficult to predict which side will Win the strike, as there is a lack of defi- nite information as to the actual number of men involved.
