MINERS AGITATIONS
TOO MANY COMPLEX QUESTIONS
(Received Last Night, 9.20 o'clock.)
LONDON, January i.
The Right Hon. T. Bunt, M.P. for Morpeth, has circularised the Northumberland Miners' Association, stating that there are two' many "big complex questions' being simultaneously raised. First they were raising the question of tJ»e minimum wage for hewers, then the payment of average wages for abnormal places, and finally, the enforcement of a minimum wage for all grades. Mr Wilson, Secretary of the Durham Association, is similarly antipathetic to tihe agitation for the minimum wage, on the ground that it is impracticable from a business standpoint.
