The union sought a larger Increase for men paid by the day, though ex pressing qualified satisfaction with the percentage increase In contract rates for mining coal. The opera tors said it would cost the consumer 75 cents more per ton in coal bins. Treating the governor's third pro posal, which in substance asked the union to drop the "check-off" de mand, the operators consented to an, arrangement by which union agents would be permitted to collect union dues fn company offices, stating that this was being done now. The that it would require the operators "to forego their practice of contract ing with individual employes for service at less than the prescribed rates." Touching other paragraphs of the orieinal Deace Drooosal. the union took occasion to reaffirm opposition to any form of arbitration. The op erators, besides declaring the flat wage increase to be "uneconomic," urged that the public was "entitled to a complete and durable settlement" which would prevent recurrence of strikes and give assurances that "the principles of orderly adjudica tion would now receive some recognition."
