Destltution Among tennessee Miners


Chattanooga July ia special TO
The Times from Jellico says there is
great destitution among the miners in
that region, many of them having large
families and not knowing where the
next meal is coming from. Some Of the
miners have gardens, and they have
been able TO make the truck raised on
these do them for the absolute necessi-
ties Of life. Relief committees recently
sent abroad to get help have returned
and reported that they had met with
poor success.
Committees are TO be sent TO the east
Tennessee districts in the hope that aid
may be obtained there. The miners and
operators have had no meetings since
May. and there does not seem 10 be the
slightest prospect Tor an amicable ad-
justment of the wage question.
The men at these mines have had lit
tie work for nearly two years, and as q
consequence they have nothing laid VI
for a rainy day.
