To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The pay- ment is often referred to as so much "interest" paid per cent, on the shares or stocks held by the investors, who are collectively the coal owners. It is true that too often the chairman of the company (elected by the shareholders collec- 18 tively, if not automatically self-elected in virtue of the ownership of the biggest number of shares held by such a chairman or director) is referred to by the public and by the miners as the coal owner. But this is only because he is visibly so, w...hile the ordinary shareholder is less active and lets the director or chairman act as spokesman on his behalf. The coal magnate or coal king is only a kind of super-share holder who possesses so many shares in a colliery or collieries. Any director's fees earned by the chairman of the collierv company for personal service rendered in the administra- tion of the finance of the company, in the strict economic sense, is to be treated as salary. If no services are rendered (as is generally the case with the majority of those on mining directorates) then the director's fee is only another name for a further exaction from the coal industry in addition to the "interest" usually paid to the other less powerful and smaller shareholders of the coal company.
