Denver.-The court-martial OF every
officer and enlisted man of the state
militia who participated in the burn
ming of the coal strikers tent colony
at Ludlow in which two women and
eleven children were killed, is recon-
mended by Maj. Edward ]. Boughton,
tjadseadvocate: Capt. W. C. Danks
and Capt. Philip s. Van Cise of the
Colorado National Guard, comprising
the military committee which conduct.
cd an investigation. In report Of
Its findings submitted Saturday night.
the committee lays responsibility for
the renewal Of hostilities to the Greek
strikers of the colony. but finds that
after the first tent caught fire that
soldiers aud mine guards deliberately
spread the conflagration by pouring
oil upon the flames and other tents,
The report attributes the burning of
the first tent to concentrated firing
upon it. 1t recites that Major Ham
rock, when hostilities commenced,
trained machine gun on the tent
colony Ito test his range" and fired
volley directly into 1t.
The committee holds Lieut.. f. X.
Linderfelt largely responsible for the
antagonism which led to the tent col
ony burning, through wholly tactless
treatment OF mine guards and strik-
ers."
1t found that Louis Tikas, leader of
the colony. had sought to prevent a
clash between the colonists and the
militiamen; that Major Hamrock had
brought reinforcements before the
battle. and that the Greeks had pre-.
cipitated the fight by firing first
Tikas. who later was taken prisoner
after having joined the Greek fighting
ranks in the battle. the committee
found, had been struck so violently
over the head by rifle In the hands
of Lieutenant Linderfelt that the stock
of the weapon had been broken. The
committee found that Tikas and two
other prisoners were shot.
The committee reports that what
was designated as Troop "A" was re-
cruited from mine guards, who come
and go with strikes" are ineligible to
enlistment as national guardsmen and
mine employees.
The coal operators are blamed by
the committee for a large part of the
riotous and lawless acts in the strike
zone to their employment OF "igno-
rant. lawless and savage south Euro
pean peasants" who have no respect
for law and to whom liberty means
license"
In conclusion, the committee recon-.
mends in addition to a general court.
martial the establishment OF state
constabulary and further inyestiga-
tion by state and federal governments.
Major Bougliton, who wrote the re-
port, also added minority recommen.
dation in which he urges against the
re-establishment of the tent colony at
