Star Special.
Columbus, N. M, July 25.-Why- did
the exiled I. ". w. miners Of Bisbee.
Altoona, who are now interned in q
refugee camp here, go on striker
What were the CIRCUMSTANCES which
Lied up to the wholesale deportation of
white men in the most spectacular la-
Dor disturbance the country has ever
witnessed?
what are the aims Of the organiza-
ton responsible for the order to
strike?
These are the questions now being
asked over the United States.
Here are the miners demands, set
forth by the strike committee of the
Metal Mine Workers Industrial Union
No. 500, which started the Bisbee
trouble: re
Abolition Of physical examina-
ton.
Two men to work "a drilling
machine.
Discontinue all blasting during
q shift.
Abolition Of all bonus and CON
tract work,
TO abolish sliding scale. All
men underground to receive a
minimum fiat rate Of SO per shift;
top men $3.50 per shift.
No Discrimination to be shown
against members of any organiza-
ton.
The strikers maintain that the phys
tcal examination, which they wished
to eliminate, is merely a form Of
blacklist.
Mine owners declare, however, that
this examination is necessary because
of the workmen's compensation act
and on account Of the hospital fee ar
rangement.
The striking workers declare
that II mine officials consider a
man an undesirable" they tele-
phone the examining doctor, and
the applicant for work fails to
pass, regardless Of physical fit
ness.
The exiled miners here say the
smoke from blasting while a shift is
at work is SO dense the men can
scarcely breathe; that they come to
the surface with bursting headaches
and that in time their health Is ruin
ed. They also claim it is a two-man

said Chairman Webb.
Walter Douglas, head of the Phelps
Dodge properties, one of the biggest
companies operating at Bisbee, claims
that, although a shift is eight hours
long, none of the men works more
than six hours. They gain two hours
q day, he says, in being lowered and
lifted to and from work, at lunch and
rests during the shift.
Douglas ALSO declares that 1t was

they won their demands. Had they
been successful, he says, they would
have tried for a six-hour day and
would eventually demand practically
