explained his purpose of taking Laho-

Lahoma never forgot that expedition

life would have been too long to devote

BRUTAL
Use OF
MILITIA

WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 2.
john ID. Rockefeller was per.
sonally pillorized with criticism
for refusing to arbitrate the Colo
RADIO coal strike In the report of
the house investigating cOmmlt-
tee, submitted today to congress.
A different attitude by Rookie
Teller, the report declared, would
have saved lives of many men,
women and children i'm the recent
mine wars.
Colorado militia and strikers
were both guilty of lawlessness
and violence, the report assert
ed. PeOnage of miners was de-
clared proved.
ADVISED TO ARBITRATE
"Arbitrate," was the Injunction
to the operators.
Need for federal and state laws
to prevent further similar labor
wars was asserted. Regulation
of the coal mines was pointed out
as an alternative.
Failure of Colorado officials TO
stop sale of firearms and ammu-
milton was deplOred. Abolition
of the system of private mine
guards was urged.
That the coal operators did not
conspire I'm restraint of trade by
limiting mine production was
found.
The report was signed by three
of the five committeeman, Chair
man Foster and Representatives
Evans and Sutherland of the
house mines committee.
Separate minority repc.s were
filed by Representatives Byrnes
and Austin. The former contend
ed the majority exceeded it's au-
thority in reporting upon sociolo-
gical conditions developed. Aus
tin suggested that the entire mat
ter be referred to the depart
ment of justice and the industrial
relations committee.
Neglect Big Factor.
Responsibility for coal strike
was was not definitely placed by
the majority report, but the COM
mittee asserted: Constant op-
preston and neglect and arbitrary
conduct of officials of these
(coal) companies were prolific
causes of dissatisfaction which re-
suited In this disturbance and
consequent destruction of life and
property"
Regarding young Rockefeller
the report stated:
Mr.. Rockefeller, large stock
holder of the most powerful COM
pany in the state. has done a
great deal for the uplift of people
In other parts of the country, and
in foreign lands, spending mil
lions of dollars, but he has not
endeavored to improve the con-
ditions of more than 5000 en-
ployes and has not visited the
state in 10 years.
Young j. ID. Obstinate.
Mr.. Rockefeller is a long dis
lance director. He was not a
good judge of conditions In Colo
RADIO and knew nothing about
them. He was obstinate. The
strike could have been settled
without recognition of the union
If he had desired to do so.

must conclude he would rath-
