J ence of bituminous miners nd operntors at Washington show that the average I ii n u:i I wage paid to the mine workers throughout the I nlted States Is approx imately $1.600 or about 1400 more thfn the iveraf.v; "salary of ministers anft college professors. The data f ished by the fuel adminis trator showed that in L916 the total pro duction of bituminous coal was 19,385.80 tons Of the cost of production about .in per cent went for supplies and pencil I expense, while substantially 70 per cent, or slightly more than $1.50 per ton was paid to luhor. In other words, the to'.al wages, paid the mlns workers in iio amounted to about $170000.000 As then- an approximately 560;OO0 mine workers employed in the bitumin ous fields of this country, the average annyal wage paid them was about $1,6.00, ; M:m thousands of the miners received I a great deal more than this, however, j as the average wage figure Is based on ' 'ill grades of workers, including the boy from 16 to 18 years of age who earned auoui ?-i per my as siaie picKers.
