 ties at Only 27
By Associated Press

Washington, July 15.-One hundred casualties resulted during the past year from labor troubles in the Mingo, W. Va, coal fields c. F. Keeney, president of the miners dis trict union, today testified before a Senate Investigating committee. MT. Keeney agreed with representatives of the operators, who placed the cas- ualties in the same period at 27 that the dead were mostly men on the other side"
 Tn the words of law officer, when a real mountaineer of Mingo county shoots twice at a man and does not kill him." Keeney explained, it Is because he was not shooting to hit"
 At the same time, speaking to s. B. Avis, counsel for the operators, he declared the strikers have been forced into every battle there by you and your crowd"
 Charges Imitation Battle
 R. II. Kirkpatrick, another union witness formerly mine foreman for the Burnwell Coal and Coke com pany, testified the imitation battle around a mine tunnel had been staged by his superiors and himself, Ito get martial law declared and beat the strike" One mine official went up into the woods and shot many times at the tunnel entrance, Kirk patrick said, while he with two guns shot back, and two other men went to outflank" the supposed enemy.
 Keeney and Attorney AVIS wrangled through the course Of an hour as the witness denied charges that "the United Mine Workers win their battles at the point of gun, and asserted that the operators Brought in "gunmen" and detec- tives. The Baldwin-F -Felts detective agency was frequently mentioned as the mine guarding and watching agency.
 And Albert Felts, it's chief, is dead isn't he, at the hands of your organization,v Mir. Avis demanded.
 The answer brought another re- eital of the fight at Matewan' W. Va, where 10 men died, but keeney retorted that "it was not proven that a United Mine Worker had killed Felts.
 w. E. Hutcheson, another miner and organizer, and Keeney attributed the continuation of the strike to the refusal of the mine operators to deal in any fashion with the United Mine Workers, and to their alleged policy of continuing to work the mines with non-union forces. keeney cross examination will be continued tomorrow.
 Chairman Keenon and members cf the committee today discussed witt out coming to a conclusion proposals that they visit the scene Of the trou- ble.

Rapid Growth Of
Canadian West
Told By Foster

Syracuse, N. r., Dec. 2.--Of
100000 inhabitants OF Canada
west OF the Great Lakes, $4,000
are from the United States. This
was stated in a recent address here
by Dewitt Foster, a former mem
ber of the Canadian parliament
and now superintendent of the in
dustrial and resource department
of a great railroad.
They have attained independ-
ence," said Mr.. Foster. "They
have built schools and colleges sec
ond to none. In the last eleven
years Saskatchewan has built 400
schools at the rate Of one a day
Government cooperative creameries
and rural hospitals have been es-
tablished. Dominion and provin--
cial governments are spending mill
lions In good roads campaigns. All
this has been accomplished In 25
years with only one-twelfth of the
fertile lands yet under cultiya-
tion.
Mr.. Foster referred to the new
$9,000,000 hydroelectric plant be-
ing built on Winnipeg river which
will make Winnipeg one of the
manufacturing metropolises OF the
continent; to the rich coal fields
of the Rocky mountain area, the
tar sands Of the Athabasca and the
bonanza oil fields of the Mackenzie
basin, and to "the billions Of dol
lars In gold that lie six inches be-
meath the surface in the wheat
fields of the western provinces.
I'VE do not say to you, Leave
your homes and come to Canada, y
Mr., Foster continued. but If yoJ
have made up your minds in obedis
ence to pioneering instinct or the
desire for new worlds to conquer,
then we say that western Canada
with Its millions Of acres OF virgin
prairie yet undeveloped, Its count
less treasures of natural resources
yet unplumbed, Its primeval for
ests yet unchartered, offers home
of contentment and Independence
to the sons and daughters OF your
pioneering forefathers. - A
