The following managers were preâ€" sent:â€"Messrs Brigham, Ennis, Deâ€" peneier, Evered and Stewart. Mr. Frank suggested that the meetâ€" ing proceed without the Italian reâ€" presentative from the Dome. Mr. Hawley stated that so far as possible representatives were arrangâ€" ed to be present from each mine. In responce to Mr. Webb, Mr. Ennis stated the Melntyre would start a store on August 1st and Mr. Brigâ€" ‘ham said the Melntyre would not beat (Continued on page 7) Mr. Frank statea that in 1917 ‘he got $4.92 per day and paid $1.00 per day for boara. . Nowâ€"he gets $4.00 per day and pays $1.25 per day for board. Room rent has been raised h'om $5.00 to $7.50. (He got $32.75 f‘or a Iralf month, having worked ‘e\'er,\' shift as solution man He thought solution men‘s pay should be $4.50 per day as they could easily earn their pay. â€" He pointe@ out that at the Dome he is now going in the hole 27 cents per day and that he thinks the wages should be increased 50 cents per day as this would bring up efficiency and make the dollar bill erow larger. Mr. Hawley then read the minutes of the meeting held Sunday Junly 13, 1919, appointing the representatives named above to meet the Mine Manâ€" agers Friday, July 18th, at 3 p.m. ana to submit the wage scale to the Mine Managers, which ‘he did. Mr. Frank statea tnat increased production would decrease costs; that the way to solve thysituation was to increase wages and this would at: tract workers to the district. Mr. Hawley tlhen stated that the previous meeting «discussed ways and means of alleviating the present high cost of living and that this was the purpose of the meeting toâ€"day. Mr. Brigham then stated that the Hollinger would engage to institute a sickness insurance for employees, the cost of same to ‘be borne by the Compâ€" any, the men to get half pay when laid up. He thotught the other mines would do the same thing. The Holâ€" linger Board of Directors considered the matter recently and are agreeable: Mr. Brigham said the working man would get thalf pay while sick and the thought the only other solution the could offer at‘ this mceting was the opgniné up of a company store. Mr. Brigham pointed out that the policy of the meeting was tc consider unfinished business from the previous meeting held at the Mclntyre July l1ith. Mr. Newton stated that the easiest channel for the workman to follow to obtain ‘this result was to demand an increase in wages and for this reason the new scale was suggested. Mr. Newton figures a dollar will only buy ‘thirtyâ€"three and one third per tent of what it would ‘p'urch}'Se in 1914. Mr. Newton said ‘that conseâ€" quently the dollar ‘had to be made to buy more or there must be more dolâ€" lar bills.â€" Mr. Brigham pointe@ out ‘that Mr. Newton‘s argument was very easy to understand as the same argument apâ€" plies in the case of mines and mine managers. He suggested that the remedy slhould be the elimination of the middleman and buy direct from the producers, thereby eliminating all unnecessary , profit. He stated that there is a limit to which ithe gold minâ€" ing industry can go. Mr. Brigham pointed out the mine‘s aollar was no larger than the miner‘s or worker‘s dollar and that the cost of had increased to the limit and that the mines could not stand a further inâ€" crease in the cost of production. Mr. DePencier stated that the old rate to solution men included a bonus of 50 cents for erowding forty thouâ€" sand â€"oda@ tons through ithe mill per month. This was not the situation at present and further stated that the board rate had been eut down from $7.50 to 5.00 . Mr. Frankâ€" said that $65.00 peér month was not enough ~for soldtion men andâ€" cited eost of elothes at $60.,00 â€" per suit.. He chas to pay $100.00 for 2,000.00 20â€" â€"pay life inâ€" surance. â€" He also statea in cyanide solution a pair of shoes will oaly last about two months. Mr. ~Perrault spoke a married man who has worked at the Hollinger for five years. He had to move into a smaller ‘house at 10.00 per month and ‘has to cut his own wood . â€" About one and a half to two years ago t‘he could save a dollar or two. This saving is now almost exhausted as a married man ‘has more stckness bills than a single man. He said toâ€"day he can make both ends meet; he lives comfortably and . gets gooa quality food. Mr. Brigham stated that what the mreting aesired to know was how to increase the purchasing power 6f the dollar bill. In answer to Mr. Hawley‘s quesâ€" tion, Mr. Brigham stated ‘he thought the mines were large enough to buy direct from the manufacturers at wholesale prices. Mr. Frank desired to, be shown xact figures as to whether or not the nanufacturers would sell the mines at the same price they do to wholeâ€" salers . Mr. Frank then stated that Dome board and room fosts $42.50 per monunth. . Ordinary Timmins rates are $8.00 he said. | The Flavour Lasts _ The Greatest Name In Goodyâ€"Land SEALED TIGABT â€" KEPT RIGAT 5 '.‘,;'\.. e e
