Loomis Rejects Arbitration Over Mine Wage Disputes
Superintendent E F Loomis of the Delaware Lackawanna and Western mining department calls any general arbitration on miners wages absurd and impractical. He says uniform wages cannot fit diverse veins and argues arbitration would imply union recognition. He adds the company will negotiate with its own workers and pursue adjustments rather than arbitration with Mine Workers.

Fred Dilcher Heads to Hazleton for Union Aid
Organizer Fred Dilcher left yesterday for Hazleton in response to President Mitchells telegram urging aid for union difficulties in the lower districts. He is cited as a top organizer and could turn the tide, with union membership estimates ranging from 6,000 affiliated of about 75,000 in the district. Dilcher plans to return to view the parade and may bring Mitchell, though the parade will include only door tenders and related workers, not miners. The parade committee posted the exclude list and will meet at 2 pm today for final plans.
