Relative Advances in Coal Wages and Consumer Prices
The article examines how coal wage hikes affect consumer coal prices, arguing miners' raises rarely reach households. It cites government figures showing price gains far outpacing miners’ wages, with detailed year by year data from 1914 to 1918 and 1924 to 1918. It notes operators' receipts rising much faster than miners’ pay and predicts a 50 cent per ton potential increase, tempered by commission recommendations.
