WAGE REDUCTION
United Mine Workers of

Any Wage Cut
NO GOOD RESULTS

President Lewis Says Miners Should Keep
All They Get-Sees Highly Financed
Effort to Break Down Trade Union
ism and for Open Shops. IS
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Dec. 1.-The
United Mine Workers of America will
not stand for any reduction in wages.
according to the December first issue Of
the United Mine Workers Journal. This
policy is stated in connection with a dis
cussion of the movement among employ
ers throughout the country for a redue,
ton of wages in the various industries.
In the article, John l.. Lewis. interna-
tlonal president of the miners union, is
quoted as follows:
Under no circumstances will We per
NIT any reduction in the wages of the
mine workers of the country. There is
not going to be any return to pre-war
wages or conditions. Any reduction ia
wages Is an economic mistake. 1t never
produces any good result What the
mime workers have today we are going
TO hold, and we propose to continue to
make progress instead of going back
ward. ="
The Journal says in part: 1T is abb
',olute4S essential tnaC the union have Il
definite and substantial policy and that
the membership shall stand behind that
policy IN solid phalanx. And the most
essential element iii that policy for the
next two years must be that there shall
be no backward step. The coal miners
must not lose any of the things that
they have won through sacrifice and
struggle. 1t is well known that there is
IN the country today a well-defned.
highly financed and ably-conducted move-
ment on the part of employers opposed
To trade uniOnism to break down the
unions and reduce the workers to the
open-ShOp, low wage system. This is one
OF the greatest dangers that now CON
front the labor movement.
The policy of the United Mine Work
ers of America on that subject has been
made plain and clear to the world by
President John L. Lewis. He has said
that there shall be no reduction i'm the
wages OF the coal miners of America.
There is the policy of the United
Mine Workers In making that state
ment, President Lewis told the world
what the United Mine Workers of Am
erica stand for. 1t is the unqualified du-
~ of every member of the union to stand
firmly behind the international officials.
10 stand back. to hesitate or to fail to
give the international officials fun sun

cation of division

The making of toys has increased five

the Toy Manufacturers Of the United
States In 1913 this country was turning

today the business has reached the $780,
100000 mark. The United States toy
makers are selling their product abroad in
ever increasing quantities The industry
employs about 10000 workers.
/ Before the war" Mr. Coleman told a
