Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides an in-depth analysis of the relationship between the rates of pay, earnings and the cost of living within the anthracite coal mining industry of Pennsylvania, determining coal miners were not as financially stable in 1920 as they were at the start of World War 1 in 1914. The author presents statistical data that reviews wage adjustments, sliding scales, and agreements made between mine workers and companies from 1902 onwards. The text delves into the reasons for lost income and purchasing power over time. Among the factors influencing the miners' financial instability examined are irregular employment, seasonal fluctuations in demand, and wartime production, which led to periods of both extreme high and low production. The insights offered in this book are crucial for understanding the economic challenges faced by laborers in the coal mining industry during this time period.
