the things he saw here will result in

generally" He stated further that he
did not believe the working Of the

bring about the conditions demanded
by the United Mine Workers.
The members Of the commission ex.
pressed themselves as much i'm

particular approval on the splendid
conditions at the Cameron mine in the

and Cameron mines. The conditions
as to houses and general living condi.
tons seemed to be most satisfactory,
comparing very favorably with the
Pennsylvania and other mines In the
East that have come under my obser-
walton.
we found one company was build
ing garages and that many OF the
automobiles to be housed therein are

we had conferences with the mine
operators and with the miners. and
