Hardly surprising Is the action of

wage award by their scale committee.
OF. course, It is an outlaw perform

union authorization, and, of, course, it
is lamentable that an anthracite coal

itwas about what was to be expected.
Mr.. Wilson rs good as said he thought

are not saying that this sta. right or

For the life Of US. we cannot see
why Mr.. Wilson could not have treated
the miners like rational men when he
announced his approval OF the ma

that was incumbent upon him was

Jacob GoIdberger Gets Plea
Which Will be Taken Care of

Jacob G~oldberger, of this city, is in
receipt of a very pitiful letter from
~forty-one men in Vienna, who are on
the point of starvation due to h alb
normal conditions in Austria and
other countries which have been UNI
able to recover from the effects of
h war. The letter, which is printed
below, was probably SEN to Mr..
Goldberger because of the aid he has
given foreign sufferers by the food
drafts sent through his bank. Mr..
Goldberger Is willing to help anyone
who wishes to help relieve n of the
forty-one unfortunate families who
sent his letter, or any other families
in this distressed country.
The letter contains thirty-two sig
natures, saying that the remaining
nine men are ILL due to the misera-
BILE living conditions and lack of
Hourishment.
