W. "would riot be, guilty of on a mine corporntion's property" in the nbsence of a negotiated contract. Lewis explained that in nepotia- ing for a contract to supplant thp current one which expires next Thursday, he faced a dilemma. A recent, federal court decision, IIP related, held that under the wage-hour law no contract was valid that did not provide for paying the men for all the time they spent inside the mine. The existing contract covers only time actually worked.

Lewis declared the mine operators were unwilHng to pay for the time spent in underground traveling between the mouth of the mine and the actual working site. He said further that the War Labor board contended the men couldn't get an increase because they already had received more than the 15 per cent allowed under the Little Steel formula.

Senator Ball said he did not contend that there might not be some injustices in the coal labor situation, but that he thought it was absurd to talk about miners starving on their current wages.
