Williamson. W. Va, Dec. 4.-The
issue OF unionism or nonunionism in
the coal industry of America is be-
ing fought out in Mingo county.
We believe Mingo county is the
key to the situation in the fight be-
tween the open shop and union
ISM" said Harry Olmstead. presi.
dent OF the Williamson Coal Oper.
ators' association.
III We should lose, other non
union fields would be endangered
A nationwide victory for the Unit.
ed Mine Workers would mean in.
dustrial chaos in the coal fields ant
ultimate government control. Il
was the open shop fields which KEEP,
the country from freezing when the
general strike was called last fall
But we think We have already won
A few weeks at the most will SEE
conditions thoroughly stabilized"
The United Mine workers appar
emily have accepted the operators
challenge, for they already hav,
held out six months and with tn,
backing Of their international head
quarters are prepared to carry on
indefinitely. The strike to date, i,
addition to costing the miners !;
million dollars in wages and tn
operators even more millions il
lost tonnage, has exacted a toll of ;
score of lives.
Both operators and strikers be
lieve the presence of federal troop
will prevent further bloodshed
which is officially deplored by al
factions.
50 Shots Fired.
Despite this, it was reported t,
the sheriff's office today that S
shots were fired from the mountain
Thursday night into mines 10 mile
north of here. No casualties wer
reported.
There are now % men here fac
ing trial on charges Of murder. Fiv
are in Jail, the other % are at lib
erty on bail.
Sheriff Blankenship. who con
! cludes his four-year term Jan.
next, is decidedly unpopular wit
the operators. They got it in 70
me because they couldn't buy me Q
my deputies" the sheriff explained
Captain T. Y. Mulliken was GU
exercising two bloodhounds when
engaged him in conversation. Thes
dogs, he said, had helped hun
down more than a dozen men o
the Kentucky side, who were chare
ed with shooting across the rive
into mines.
Williamson and the surroundin
counties appear so peaceful now
looks as if the soldiers didn't be
long there. Townspeople, especial
ly the girls, fraternize with tn
troops. The doughboys are princl
pally engaged now with cleanin
up the streets and public grounds
Jack Flagg, who says he is col
fin salesman from Roanoke, Va, al
rived here today and declared b
came in anticipation of doing
rushing business as result OF th
federal troops having been calle
in. He declared he was going
stick around until something hal
pened and that he could supply ca:
kets at very attractive rates.
