anthracite miners union by their en-
ployers WAS great mistake. This OPP

idea that unionism was opposed to his
interests. and this was his subsequent
experience:
''But we gradually worked out one
point after another with the union
leaders, and found them, on the whole,
fair, reasonable mon. Since we made
our agreements with the men we have
done better than ever before. The
agreements have been kept, and kept
sometimes under pressure, and when 1t
