find places in the newspaper game

prepare their own cartoons and
make up the paper and print 1t on

SPEED COAL,
SAYS HAYES
Union Leaders Exerting Every
Effort, But Believe Gar Short
age An important Item.

Officials of the United Mine Work
ers' union are conducting question:
naires to find out just why miners are
idle. They express the view that
where any men are not at work it is
through causes they cannot control,
and they predict that the question:
naires will verify their belief. The
department of labor considers the
coal problem one Of the most import
ant that America must solve.
Frank J. Hayes, International pres
ident of the union, has made a tour
in Pennsylvania, speaking to the min
ers to urge upon them the necessity
for maximum production during the
war. How we'll the men are respond
ing is shown by the fact that 13,243,-
900 tons Of bituminous coal were
mined in one week in July-almost
half the amount of bituminous coal
required for the New England states
and by the mining of more than
100000 tons in one day on several
occasions this season. Production thus
far is breaking all records.
:"The miners can flood the country
with coal if they are given proper ia
cilities and encouragement" said Mr..
Hayes in his address at Mahanoy,
land there is no necessity for work.
ing more than eight hours
Not only is Mr.. Hayes urging the
men to put forth every possible effort
to increase production, but the United
Mine Workers Journal, organ of the
union, exhorts them thus dig!
Miners, dig! Dig coal; dig more coal!
Dig still more coal; the success of
the war depends on the coal you dig"
In view of these efforts and Of the
great production at the bituminous
mines, the union officials feel that
wherever men are idle it lis not their
own fault.
Therefore the union officials Of dis
trict 2, Pennsylvania-John Brophy,
president; James Mark, vice presi-
dent, and Richard Gilbert, secretary
treasorer-have prepared a statement
in which they call the attention of all
local unions to the necessity alta this
time for universal productive effort,
and request prompt response to the
missionaries they are sending out
These questionnaires ask the names
of the mines, railroads serving them,
companies operating them, and union
organizations connected with them.
The cause of idleness and the num-
Der of men idle are then queried.
Among causes of idleness listed are
failure of railroads to supply cars,
lack of timber, bad ventilation, water
in the mine. roof falls, breakdowns
OF machienry or equipment and diff
ferences with the foremen or other
reasons, including sickness, which re-
suited in the workmen being sent
home. West Virginia miners charge
that the companies methods of re-
porting on idleness are unfair to the
workers.
