vestigations of disorders in the Mingo
county coal fields Of Vest Virginia
which have led recently to declara-
-iion of martial law by the governor,
Neil iBurkenshaw, ~ representing the
United Mine Workers, being the first
witness called. The trouble was due,
he said.t a lockout Of Union miners
by the operators. Miners had been
'evicted from company houses and
"terrorized by gun men," Burkenshaw
declared; eleven thousand miners and
their families having been housed in
tents by the union.
These people are ninety-two per-
cent American born and the mine op-
orators are employing SpaniardsI
Greeks. Italians and every type of
foreigner they can get to take their
places" Burkenshaw stated.
l.. Taylor vinson, for the operators,
said Berkenshaw's statement would
be overthrow by evidence For
twenty years he said, the miners
and operators had lived at peace un-
der scale which permitted a skilled
miner TO earn from S400 to $7O0 a
month and that condition persisted un-
til the United Nine Workers sought
to get control OF the }flelH ff

Forty Hurt When Boardwalk At
Chesapeake Beach Collapsed

were hurled through the gap in the
walk which spanned a small inlet
They fell headlong into three feet of
water. and as they struggled madly
toward the dry section of the beach,
they were driven back into the water
by hurting bodies Of other victims
sWhea finally 20 or more had
erawled TO the dry section the chaos
srbsided, and several groups of men
began a systematic effort to get the
children out of the bay. In 20 min
utes all had been cared for and were
grouped in the railroad station. their
clothing dripping Some were with
out hats or coats. and most of them
reported having lost baskets and
s4tcheIs.
That many Of the children were not
drowned was due only to the fact that
the tide was running low and there
were only from three 10 four feet of
water in the inlet Had the water
been at high tide some of the younger
victims would have lost their lives.
