REV. T. ]. CAFFEE

~As a iaw-apiding citizen of the Stale
of Alabama / wish to express my hearty
approval of the position taken by Gov
error Kilby in. suppressing the strike
situation in Alabama.
Being a minister of the gospel, /
have refraiNl from expressing my
views, as l do not like to mix up with
Lublic strife. Being a laboring man and
a consistent friend to the public welfare
of the country, I am opposed to strikes,
as they only enfender strife and demon
alize public interest. 1t seems to me that
any well-informed citizen would approve
the position of Governor Kilby.
1--WE have had sufficient proof demon
strated in Alabama that the labor situa-
tion will never be made better by strikes;
although many farmers in this part OF
the country have joined the strike situa-
ton. 1t seems, for no other reason than
to draw free provisions for their FAM
lilies and thus greatly aiding in the con-
tnuation of public strife We peiieve
that every man should avail himset OF
the opportunity of being factor for
good, instead of evil, and wnen men
learn to love each other as they ought
TO- then. and not until then, will the
situation of our country improve.
G. B. F. STOVALL
II feel that the attitude voiced by
Mrs. Reid can never lead to a settle
ment of the coal strike situation, but
can only broaden the chasm not only
between the miners and the operators
but between labor and capital in gen
eral.
Labor has a right to organise. II
has a right to make its organization
as strong as possible. 1t has right
to have its national organization. Oh
course its national organization must
constitute it's engine of power. 1t Is
silly and pure buncome to say that the
head officials of the national organ
ization must all be taken from the
south. The cry raised that Mr.. Bittnel
comes from some other part of thu
country would seem to any fair-mindee
man or woman. I think, as not onl,
purile, but an unfair appeal tc
prejudice. and would seem to indicat;
that there was no sensible and legiti.
mate, reason why they should condemn
the miners in their course
II have tried to view the, situation
impartially from the beginning, and
have felt that the trouble would hav.
been settled long ago IL the operators

"a change seems to have come over
the spirit of Alabama and Alabamians.
There was time when public opinion
would not, have tolerated the state of
affairs now existing in the mining
regions of the state. Time was when
a few rank outsiders could not nave
upset the peace and dignity of the
state as this crowd from indianapolis
has done.
This state has heretofore been fully
able to attend to its internal affairs
without direction by outside agitators
drawing handsome salaries to prop
agate agitation. 1t is time that we
were reasserting our ability to care
Tor ourselves"

THE position taken oy GuS ernor kilby
land his appeal to the people Of the state
to end The coal strike. through the in
fluence of public sentiment, is hl5hl3
proper and should have the unqualified
indorsemen of all good citizens; likewise
the timely and appropriate views of Nj.
c. ]. Langston, the vigorous and able
spokesman for the thousands. of non-
union miners who desire to work at at
tractive pay and earn support for the1
families The federal conciliator, VIII
liam c. Liller, seems to be greatly peeved
over his failure to conciliate, ana ms
criticism of Governor Kilby, Frank J.
Morris, James Bonnyman, George T.
Peter, Frank Nelson and Charles F. De-
bardeleben, should be vigorously resent
ed. Doubtless we have heard the last Of
him since he in his anger has disclosed
his true color, and exposed his United
Mine Workers card, SO to speak.
There is another element involved IN
this controversy, however, entitled to
consideration of the public, ana that Is
the involuntary and coerced membership
within the ranks of the United Mine
Workers. 1t is a fact that many OF
those who have joined the United Mine
Workers union, have done so under sim
liar threats and have fears of violence
or social ostracism to themselves and
their. families if they remained out. such
being instigated by the leaders frorn
Pennsylvania and elsewhere, and II this
incubus could be lifted off these invol-
untary members, many worthy and eS-
perienced men would be released from a
terrifying bondage to engage in honest
labor at attractive pay.
LET public sentiment assert itself IN
favor of these men also, for it is re-
Election on our state to permit any class
to be4 thus forced into such terrifying
and unwilling bondage. The whole thing
seems to be a profitable enterprise ia
the labor agitators and certain others
who are profiting-yes, profIteerlng, Dy
the bloodshedding and flow of money
into the United Mine Workers loca
treasury, but it is indeed too humilia.-
ing to the peace and dignity OF the
state to be longer tolerated"

COMMUNITY CLUB

Resolutions calling on Gov. Thomas
e. kilby to use all the means in his
power to fix the responsibility of the
strike and to adopt all other legal
steps which he may deem advisabl
to the end that industrial peace may
prevail In this state were adopted
unanimously by the Community club
at its meeting yesterday afternoon.
The resolution was introduced by
Jack Fraser and was discussed at
length, the consensus of opinion beina
That this step was necessary If the
strike in Alabama is to be settled
The gist of the resolutions is as
follows:
Since for some time past mere has
been strike in the coal mining sec
tons of this state. as result of WIN
there have been assaults, murders and
other acts of lawlessness and violence
necessitating the use of the national
guard OF the state, and of the other
law enforcement agencies in the main

pense to the public of the state, and
since the situation has become in.oler.
able to the people of Alabama, who
are compelled to bear the burden, and
the governor of the state recognizes
this and has asked for an expression
of opinion by the public, the Commu-
Unity club of~Birmingham resolves that
the club, while reiterating its belief
in the right OF labor for the purpose
Iof securing better wages and condi l.
tions OF labor, believes that such right
should be exercised by peaceful and
legal means, and in recognition OF he
fundamental rights of our constitu-
ton and law that every man has a
right to work when and where he
pleases without fear of violence to his
person and property, and since. in the
opinion of this club, the violence and
lawlessness accompanying the present
| strike results directly from instruc-
tons issuedfby the officials and ad
visers of the United Mine Workers o,
America to it's members to violate the
laws Of the state of Alabama and that
the responsibility for such acts
should be placed sauarely upon such
officials and advisers, the club urges
the governor of the state Of Alabama
to use all the means in his power to
fix such responsibility and to adopt
all other legal steps which he may
deem advisable to the end that INDUS

MURRAY BROWN

Il am in thorough accord with the po-
sition and action that Governor Kilby
has taken throughout the ccal strike.
With the situation and the stubborn facts
before him, L can not see how he could
have acted otherwise. The pubic may
not be particularly concerned in the ques-
ton. of recognition of the union, and may
care little whether the mines are oper-
ated with union or non-union workers,
butit certainly is vitality interested in the
matter of the violation of the laws Of our
state and Sur country or anything that
strikes at the very foundation of gov
eminent.
The people of Alabama want peace,
and they srould~have it without addi-
tional and unnecessary taxes incident to
the soldiers being duty here. When
our laws are utterly disregarded and
openly violated there can be no peace.
Charges and countercharges are made
from both sides of this controversy. in
view of Governor kilbys request for
public expression regarding the present
situation, / urge stricter application
and more rigid enforcement of our laws,
Furnishing the violators, whoever they
may be, wherever found. Let the chips
