Labor Notes

The Brotherhood of Railway Car
men comprises a membership of 49,
900, or double the number OF four
years ago when the last convention
was held, according to the recent re-
port of President NJ. L. Ryan. He
urged better discipline of locals in
order to prevent unauthorized strikes
and also urged an affiliation with
the International Association OF Car
Workers.
The London Board OF Trade tenn
porarily averted a general omnibus
strike last week by inviting the men
and employers to attend conference
today. The men employed by all the
larger companies agreed to remain
at work until the result of the con-
ference becomes known.
All the coal mines in the Michigan
coal mining district were closed last
week, and the operators insisted that
they would not be reopened until the
differences between the union and
the Handy Brothers Mining Com
pany in Bay county are adjusted.
About 5000 men are affected by the
suspension of work. Thomas w. Da-
Wis, commissioner for the coal mine
operators of Michigan, asserted that
the trouble was due to the alleged
refusal of the union officials to con-
sent to arbitration of differences
with Handy Brothers when 700 men
recently struck.
President John p. White OF the
United Mine Workers of America
. Il.
support of 500, 900 men wis be put
back of the coal miners of Colorado
in their present trouble. He declared
that the miners were prepared for
war, If war is to come. Tracts of
land in the affected districts have
been leased, and hundreds of tents
have been shipped in from West Vir-
ginia and quietly held. When the
strike is called today the tents
will be pitched upon the land and
miners settlements established in
which all the strikers will be cared
for. The sum OF 100000 has been
set aside in a strike benefit fund by
the United Mine Workers. and White
says that the money can be placed at
disposal for use in Colorado in a day.
In addition a strike levy which will
provide about S250,000 month can
be imposed upon working members
of the organization for the benefit of
Colorado strikers.
With approximately half of the 800
men employed in the Ignite field
north of Colorado Springs non-union
miners. the present situation has talk
en- such serious turn that the op-
orators in the field held conference
last week and an agreement was
reached that they should stand to-
! gether and resist the unions claim
for recognition in that field. AS in
the other fields of the state, sub
stantial raise in coal prices has been
made at Colorado Springs. Ignite
has advanced from SO to 81. bitum-
inous lump from s5 to Sc and bitum-
inous nut from s4.25 to $3.50. per
