COAL STRIKE ENDING.

THE GOVERNMENT PLAN.

Rugby, Nov. 15.

The present week is generally expected to see the termination of the coal dispute. The miners' district associations are deciding whother to accopt, as recommend- ed by their delegates conference, the proposals for a settlement presented by the Government: All districts must decide before Thurs- day, and the results will be pre-. sented at the dologates' confer ence on Friday.

Already in South Wales, at Blaenavon. Abertillery and Gara- diffaith, the miners have, voted. In favour of acceptance, and other districts are expected to provide at least a majority for this course, The Government proposals are designed to secure a standard form of agreement in every coal field. Anything like exact equal ty is not the aim of the plan, but it perpetuates common principles and common factors for calcula tion of district wage rates, and virtually establishes a national minimum. It secures the work- ing in the districts of machinery for regulation of wages above that minimum in accordance with tho state of prosperity of the industry.. It allows of some elasticity in the fixing of profits, and it assures continuance of the subsistence al lowance, It provides for agree- ments of a duration of not less than three years:

The standard agreement makes no reference to the length of the working day. Hours are to be left to determination in districts. On the question of hours, there can be no appeal to tribunal, and to this the miners take exception. But if the working of longer hours adds to the prosperity of the in- dustry, they will have their "full share of the additional proceeds -British Wireless,
