ator Kenyon's two-man investigation

mobile and train. When the COM
mlttees quit work tonight and pro-
ceedcd to Huntington the two sensa-
tors, sitting a maze of informal testi-
mony, found it difficult to put two
and two together and make four.
There was no end of conflict from
the testimony.
Spokesman for miners and opera
tors seemed miles apart as 70 the
real cause of long standing gricv-
ances.. The trip was much like that
OF a jury viewing murder scene
ana many murder scenes, by the way,
were visited during the day. Here
at Matewan the senator's stood on
the spot where ten fell in a battle
on May 19 from which seemed to
have spread the flame of mining
warfare. Across the street where
one of the Hatficlds later was as
sassinated was visited and then they
travelled over part Of the ten mile
battle ground where machine guns
were used.
At Matewan state guards were on
duty but no disorders were reported.

The sum OF $1,000 could be easily

The additional sum appropriated

You are under too much of a
