NO PEACE IN
MINE WAR;:
ONLY TRUCE
Future Fighting Certain
Unless Conditions Are
Remedied.
BY HAROLD u. JACOBS

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Charleston, w. Va, Sept. 5. - A
truce-not a permanent peace, ex-
lists today in West Virginia's mine
warfare
Federal troops have ended a fort
nights fighting between union min
ers and their friends on one hand
and state constabulary and mine
guard deputies on the other. But
the basic conditions which were
the bottom of this and previous
battles remain. After withdrawal
of regulars, it is only a question
of time until another and probably
more serious outbreak will occur
unless these conditions are rene
died.
Mine Guards Must Go.
The one thing that will insure
permanent peace in West Virginia
Is abolition of the mine guard sys-
tenn. Right or wrong, this system
is at the bottom of West Virginia
warfare.
Those who want the troubles
ended hope that the congressional
investigating committee soon to
come here will concentrate $l the
mine guard system and make its
work a success by solving it.
Holdings of most powerful oper-
ators are located in Logan, Nc
Dowell. Mercer and Mingo coun-
ties. When union organizers began
to get a foothold in other sections
of West Virginia the operators con-
centrated in these counties their
efforts to thwart unionism.
The mine guards nominally are
to protect the coal companies
property. Actually they function
to keep organizers away from the
men and even known
union members are barred in this
territory.
Operators Pay Sheriff.
In many Instances the peace Of
fcers of these counties occupy the
role of mine guards. One sheriff
prominently identified with the
mine warfare just ended is said to
draw from the operators a sub
commission for every ton
of coal mined ard in the several
years he has held office is said to-
have amassed a fortune.
