a remark made by Chairman Gray Of

Gray said that he would like TO see
the miners union come mp out Of the
mire into the sunlight. The miners
union president said the union should
not be indicted unless q connection
could be shown between 1t and acts Of
lawiessness. The head of the com.
mission replied that he did not wish
to indict the organization but hoped
1t would disentsngle itself entirely OF
the violence and lawlessness commit
cd during the strike. The incident
came unexpectedly while . witness
was on the stand. and caused q stir
among the lawyers for both sides Of
the controversy. Outside Of this tilt
the entire day was taken up in hear
ing non. union men or their relatives,
who alleged prosecutions during tho
strike.
