Mine Owners of Ohio Vote to Reopen Pits
Ohio's coal mines closed since April 1 due to wage differences will reopen July 15 on a union or nonunion basis with the November 1917 wage scale of 5 dollars per day in effect. The Ohio Mine Operators association unanimously agreed to accept a compromise ultimatum allowing union officers until July 15 to accept or reject the proposal. The plan links Ohio wages to West Virginia and Kentucky fields, aiming to provide employment for idle miners and secure fuel supplies.
