 In Kansas, where Governor Allen initiated the volunteer mining system in the surface mines, eleven such mines were operating today. A Santa Fe switching crew refused to handle nonunion men to some of the mines. Governor McKelvia of Nebraska continued to enlist volunteer work CTS for mines in nearby states and an offer was made to send some of them to Missouri.
 Wyoming was made to face the volunteer system as a result of the i chaotic situation in that state when some mines were working and others l idle, although the union officials had l ordered the strikers back to work and announced union benefits would be withheld.

States district attorney in charge of enforcement of the injunction, stated today that the proceedings against the miners epresentatives will be pushed and that removal proceedings to obtain the appearance in court here of officers who reside outside of Indiana will be instituted at once.
 Mr Simms announced that pro- ceedings against officers of two To- calls at Clinton, Ind, also would be instituted very soon, charging them specifically with violations of the in junction by payment of strike bene- fits to miners. Officials of local No. 2, he declared, had paid benefits by check, attempting to conceal the real nature of the action by stating that they were for over-payment of dues. Local No. 39, he said, drew one check for $500 and distributed currency among it's members.
 In connection with the issuance of strike benefits, Mir Simms again de- clared that the injunction extends to any person, whether or not miner, who in any way encouraged the strike and said that banks which hon. ored checks drawn against a strike benefit fund were liable to prosecu- tion.
 MT. Simms stated that the citations against the men named today were only a start in the prosecutions against alleged violators of the in- junction and that the action might be expected soon
