ORDER Miners
TO RETURN TO
THEIR WORK


and returnable Dec. /. The writs
in the restraining O. der were made
returnable Nov. 20.
During the day approaches to the
entrances of the conference hail
were carefully guarded by a ser
geant-at-arms and during recesses
a man remained on guard In the
hall, but in the later hours OF the
conference, the sergeant-at-arms
disappeared.
Speeches ImpassiOned.
The speeches at times were i'm
passioned and voices from the hall
rose above the hub-hub Of the hotel,
in which the conference was held,
but only a word now and then was
distir guishable.
1t is understood that all phases
of the question were argued aud
the effect various actions might
have, on the organization entered
into the discussion, but according
to members not a vote was taken
on any subject until the action
early today was decided upon.
Shortly before the conference ad-
journed, President Lewis and Will
liam Green, secretary-treasurer,
held . long conference in the par
lcr of the hotel and later Mr.. Lewis
was seen pacing up and down the
floor with head bowed as II in deep
study. Development after this
conference came rapidly.
Resume Negotiations.
The recall of the strike order
will open the way Immediately for
resumption of the negotiations
between the miners and the opera
tors, as the operators have an
nounced that they would be ready
to consider a new wage agreement
at any time the strike order was
withdrawn. 1t is also understood
that the question of arbitration
entered largely into the discussion
in the final stages of the meeting
but the miners position on this
subject was not announced.
The question Of just how may

fContinued from Page one.)

thousand soft coal miners in I'LL
nois, idle today, awaited an inter-
probation Of the decision Of their
national officials to call OF the
strike.
It was impossible this morning
to determine just what effect the
action Of the international miners
ofncials in bowling to the will OF
the government would have on the
rank and file of the Illinois coal
fields, especially because of the VI
olent feeling Of hostility to the
strike Injunction previously mani
Tested In many camps.
Leaders in charge Of the 18th
district, in the absence Of state
miners officials, who are in In
dianapolis, are loath to discuss the
situation. They would not fore
cast whether the mine workers in
Illinois would submit willingly to
the direction of their officials, and
were inclined to await further In
Formation as to the inner delibera-
tions Of the conference.
Operators In Doubt.
Operators said they had no way
OF telling whether miners would
resume work in response to the
direction of their officials, but
maintained hopeful attitude that
a settlement would be reached
through mediation Of government
agencies.
Sub-district officials OF the office
Of the Springfield sub-district here
refused to talk about the action OF
acting President Lewis and his as
soc iates. 1t was suggested, how
ever. by a miner in the office that
''the response to the strike rescind-
ing order will show what the mine
workers think"
Word was being passed around
among miners in Springfield, as re-
fiected in talks with individual coal
diggers, that the return to work or
der was to be ignored.
The miners, some OF tneW, may
70 back in West Virginia, where
they are not organized very well,
but there will be no weakening In
Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Western
Pennsylvania" one miner is quoted
as saying.
Not Ready To Work.
Joliet, ILL.,. Nov. 11.-Miners in
the Wilmington coal district south
Of here today stated that there was
doubt the men would obey Lewis
instructions to return to work.
They we're without orders from
from state or local officials but the
individual opinions were against
resumption of work before their
demands had been adjusted.
Mines are ready to start work II
the men decide to resume.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1919-11-11

Of the coal diggsrs would obey the
order resembling the strike Was
problematical early today. In some
district: 1t was considered that the
resumption Of work would b gem

only partial and in some, It was
said, the return would b very
Most Monenfous Ever.
Tn, meeting was probably the
most momentous ever held by the
miners Organization. II not the
most weighty ever conducted BY }
labor organization in this country,
for, in the view Of labor leaders. i
was to determine whether an or
ganization would be forced by gov
ornamental pressure through the
courts to discontinue . strike, when
apparently all the members OF the
union were behind the walk-out.
which was being conduct ID without
any form OF violence CT disturb
ance or damage to property.
Labor In general, ~ represented
by the executive committee Of the
American Federation Of Labor, had
offered its unqualified support 70
the miners in their strike, while
obedience or disQbedience Of fed
eral court order hung in the bal
ance, and this fact gave miners rep
resentatives who favored holding
out an argument which weighed
heavily with some Of their col
leagues.
Wished to Observe Law.
On the other hand, the presi-
dents designation of the trike was
unlawful, placed the coal workers
in the position of defying the go!-
eminent of the United States, II
they refused to call OF the strike,
and, in view of the consequences
attaching to disobedience of the fed
eral order, many were adverse to
considering anything which could
be construed as lack of American
ism.
There was no limit on the debate
in the conference and many of
the delegates spoke at length and
some more than once on various
subjects.

PEANUT" UNIT LOOKED GOOD
But After Receiving Letter From Az
ricGitura! Department "City Suck
er" Did Net Invest

city man got very glowing circu-
lar from Chicago development com
pany" Offering him ten acres of land in
Florida for the surprisingly small sum
OF $2.500-a peanut unit" the circular
called II. He could grow. the circular
said, thousand bushels of peanuts on
his ten acres and could sell the pea
nuts-allowing for low prices at s. a
bushel. The city man was impressed:
but he sent the circular to the depart
ment of agriculture with query as to
whether or not the investment was a
good one.
Following are some sentences frcm
the letter he got in reply: THE lit
erature is OF the kind designed 10 de-
ceive city people in the North and
West who Go not know anything about
farming" The average return from
ten acres of peanuts would not exceed
$500 TO $500" You could buy a 100
acre farm in almost any of the coun-
ties Of western Florida, including the
one mentioned in the circular. for the
price these people ask for ten acres. "
The whole unit system. whether
1t Is pecans. peaches. figs, cane. pea
nuts, hogs. or what not, Is simply a
means of selling land at three to Ave
times what 1t Is worth to ignorant or
unwary small investors" ITO pay ST..
500 for this ten acres of land would
stamp you as q sucker of the rankest
class. "-Exchange.
