! Dear Sir:-Hon. Carroll ID. Wright
has no doubt reported TO you the ceiiv-
erv of your message 10 me, last Nom
dav. and my statement to him that
should take your suggestion under adj
visernent. although did not look upon
il with favor.
since that time have consulted
with our district presidents. who con-
cur fully in my views. We desire TO
assure you again that We feel keenly
tn. responsibility OF our position and
the gravity of the situation and il
would give us great pleasure to take
any action which would bring this
coal strike to an end in a manner that
would safeguard the interests OF our
constituents.
IN proposing that there be an inn
mediate resumption of coal mining
upon the conditions we suggested in
the conference at the White House.
we believed that we had gone more
than half way and had met your
wishes.
1T is unnecessary in this letter To
refer to the malicious assault made
upon us in response of the coal oper-
ators We feel confident that you
must have been impressed with the
fairness OF our proposition and the in
sincerity of those who maligned us.
Having in mind our experience
with the coal operators in the past
we have no reason to feel any degree
of confidence in their Willingness to
do us Justice in the future and mas
much as they have refused to accept
the decision of tribunal selected by
YOU and inasmuch as there is no law
through which you could enforce the
findings of the commission you sug-
gest, we respectfully decline TO ad-
wise our people to return to work
simply upon the hope that the oper-
ators might be induced or forced 10
comply with the recommendations of
your committee.
AS stated above. we believe We
went more than half way in our pro-
posal at Washington and we do not
feel that we should he asked to make
further sacrifices.
I'VE appreciate your solicitude for
the people of our country who are now
and will be subjected to great suffer-
inc and Inconvenience by a prOlOngd
ton of the coal strike and we feel that
the onus of this terrible state OF AT
fairs should be placed upon the side
which has refused to refer TO fair ana
impartial intervention.
