DECIDE AGAINST
STRIKE INQUIRY
RULES COMMITTEE BLOCKS RES.
oLUTIoN RELATING TO COLO
RADIO AND MICHIGAN.
FROM DENVER
HAD MANY LETTERS AND TELE
GRAMS URGING CONGRESS
sioNAL INVESTIGATION.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington. - Democrats of the
House Rules Committee decided
against ordering congressional investi
cation of strikes in the Michigan cop
per field and the Colorado coal dis
trict.
Republicans and Progressives tried
for a meeting of the entire committee
but the Democratic majority, in pri-
vate conference. voted that no investi-
cation resolution be reported.
The rules committee met under a
fire of petitions, letters and kilograms
urging congressional investigation of
the strikes.
A petition from Mayor Perkins OF
Denver and several Democratic office
holders of that city related the history
of the Colorado coal strike, and con-
cluded: ~
1--WE are of the opinion that If some
thing ls not done, there is likely to be
much serious trouble in the near fu-
ture."
The committee also received a tele-
gram from John McLennan. president
of the Colorado State Federation of
Labor. and John r. Lawson, of the
United Mine Workers of America,
charging that peonage, interference
with the mails. contract labor and i'm
prisonment without due process OF
law existed in the strike zone.
Democrats of the committee con-
cluded there were no questions in
either strike concerning the federal
government, and that there was moth
ing to show that the state authorities
were unable to cope with the situation.
The Democrats determined that as
the West Virginia investigation by the
Senate was the first of its kind, that
il the Colorado and Michigan situa-
tions were to be acted on the Senate
was the body to consider them.
