The metinsr has been arranged by the State Industrial Accidents Commission, which has drafted the nil! to be submitted to the senrai assemblv, but which was requested to give a hearing to a number of people interested in other torins.

Heoresentatives jf the State Federation of Labor, various manufacturers, welfare wtvi other organizations have been asked to bw-Ticresent and criticize the drafts and to offer suggestions.

Belmont county coal mines, now closed by the strike, are likely to be operaed on the profit-sharing plan. One hundred former employes of the Pittshurgh-Belmont Coal Company, whose mine at have requested that their former employers permit Ithem to take stock and operate the mine under lease on the en-nnerative plan. A similar plan has made by the employes or tne isemcK mine and the unions in other parts of the coutnry are expected to make like proposals. The operators have the propositions under consideration and, as it offers a solution for the deadlock which has existed since April l.i when the miners went on a strike, it is thought their answer will be favorable. The miners say they will not be violating their agreement with the T'nited Aline Workers inasmuch, as thev will be part owners of the mine and will be re- ceiving their money under the profit-sharing plan.
