ceived a message from Miles Merrill,
president OF the Loyalty League of
America. answering the protests from
Globe and Miami miners unions that

The message asks that the COVER
Tor and defence councils be advised
that the loyalty leagues Of this and
ether mining states do not oppose the
employment Of any Americans except
those who have been guilty Of trea-
SOnable acts, and maintain the posi-
tiou that inquiry to determine the
