together. Schools run for only short
term. Some places they will not have
churches. but Sundays they make day
of frolic. I would not advise any Ala
bama miner to go up there"
R. p Jenkins, a miner at Black Dia-
mond mines in walker county, echoes
these sentiments. and closes with the
statement: 81 advise all Alabama miners,
who are making living here, not to go
up there with any hopes of lettering
themselves. If they do they will be dis
appointed"
Conditions in West Virginia are SINH
lar to those in Kentucky, according to
w. T.. Cope. a miner at Townley, who
worked in both states. There (West
Virginia) l found social conditions sim
ply abominable," he said in part, land
almost intolerable. There was no sys-
tenn of sanitation, no care for the health
of miners and their families. Most of
the men employed are the rougher class
es of foreigners, who have no regard
for the safety and comfort of others
John Barnum of Townley is another
who was converted into a booster of
Alabama. II could not advise any miner
in Alabama to go to that section with
a view of lettering his condition. /
went up there year ago to take OBJ
servation and see if 1 could better my
self 1 did not take my family and 1
was glad of it after 1 saw how things
were. L stayed only one month. In
the first place. the pay is not as good
as here. There is no attention paid to
health and sanitation, and the rough
element of tramping miners predomi-
mates. Many of them are lawless, and
there is much drinking and disorder
hardly safe to go out after dark alone.
1 did not mix with them, and had no
social comfort or pleasure
Other accounts of experiences an OBJ
servations of miners are of the same
general trend.
With the expected improvement of the
car situation, the Alabama mines will
be in need of more miners and those
who return doubtless will be able to
find employment again.
