 ''If Mir. LilIer is government
 concilintor, he deserves to be
 promptly recalled and stripped of
 his employment for giving out this
 interview. Instead of breathing
 conciIiation 1t speaks defiance to
 the governor of Alabama, charges
 him with being either misinformed
 or prejudiced, Is full of false state
 ments and conclusions, and shows
 clearly that instead of being just
 mediator, he is intensely union
 partisan. His partisnnship k in-
 dicnted not only by his statement,
 but by his failure to call upon the
 union, with whom he evidently has
 great influence, to accept the pa-
 friotic call of the governor, with
 draw their resolutions calling up-
 on the members of their union to
 unlawfulIy picket operations and
 to unlawfuIiy interfere with the
 work of those who are desirous of
 earning m honest and competent
 livelihood.
 There appears in the same issue oi the paper containing MT. Liller's in. terview resolutions adopted by the Al abama Live Stock association, disin- terested body of Alabamians, whict recognizes the manhood. integrity ana efficiency of Governor Kilby. These resolutions state;
 We heartily commend the action oi the governor of Alabama in preserv. ing order in the mining districts of ths state and we emphatically condemn the United Mine Workers of America in the attack they have made on ths Governor, on account of the efforts h' has made to protect life and property We believe the presence of the nation al organizers and agitators of tn, United Mine Workers of America i, dangerous and injurious, not only tt the best interests of the miners them selves, but to the entire mining indus try of the state of Alabama, and W. believe that the best interests of tn, conditions of the state wil be better subserved by the withdrawa from the state of Alabama of such az itators.
 q submit that this clarion call iron Alabamians will receive the enthus iastic support of Alabamians, rathe than the voice of MT. Van Bittner, MT Liller and other outsiders, who hav' the temerity to attempt to criticis our government and suggest one o their own"

organize the miners into unions or asso- cations, or interfere with their business, but reserve unto themselves the right to oictate and set up policies and rules for the operation of mines controlled by other operators, and say to them, in ef- rect; You, MT. Operator, must run your mintes our way or we will see that they do not run at all.'
 My only interest in this matter, at all times, has been to exert my best effort and influence toward bringing about a settlement and I am grateful to those patriotic and public-spirited gentlemen who have so zealously sought to aid in bringing the strike to an end.
 T have no quarrel with the governor. only regret that he did not state both versions of the controversy.
 T still maintain that the coal miners strike in Alabama can be settled, but not through the fighting operators com mIttee which, believe, misrepresents the real sentiment and wishes of many ot the coal operators.
 TEMPER AND FEELINGS
 Certainly, the governor does not un- derstand the temper and feelings of the striking miners in the outlying districts. If he did, l am sure he would not sug- gest the immediate withdrawal from Alabama of the leaders of the United Mine Workers of America and other la- bor agitators from other states coupled with the statement that unfortunately there is no law on the statute books to force the adoption of either plan,' which might be construed by some hot-headed individuals as a suggestion to take the law into their own hands and see that these men are driven out of the state.
 My understanding is that in coal min ing strikes in Alabama in the past this was done. If l correctly interpret the sentiments and feelings of the miners throughout the district with whom I have frequently conferred. such harsh and ex- treme methods could have but one re- suit. and that is lead to civil war.
 Whatever results may follow from Governor Kilby's statement, the responsi- bility must rest wholly and solely with him.
 Ut is true that more coal is being mined than is needed, but that is because there is no demand for it on account of the general industrial depression. The fact remains that hundreds of miners who were procured at great expense to take the striking miners places are be- ing laid off or discharged because there is no work for them to do."

ATTITUDE OF COMMITTEE

"The writer is the only member of the committee whose company has never had in existence at any of its operations a local of the United Mine Workers of America. He is proud of the fact that through this policy his company has record of never hav- Ing had labor disturbances or shut
 down on account of complaints of em- ployes. Since 1908, when this policy was established by this company, while mines all over the United States were idle, our mines have operated on full time and with good feeling be-
 tween employer and employe. In- stead of profiteering our company has paid as high wages as have been paid in the district, and has, without ques- ton. put into operation every recom- mendation made by the bituminous coal commission, and has adhered strongly to the principle of not charg
 ing high prices for it's coal, following scrupulously the schedule of prices al- lowed by the fuel administration for the sale of it's output. which was de- termined after a full investigation by the government of our cost sheets.
 "The other four members of the committee represent companies which have always heretofore adhered to the open shop principle, and in whose op-

eight months late, and that there was nothing to mediate and no basis for con- ciliation along the lines suggested by him. Before leaving Alabama his first visit, he submitted to the operators a proposition substantially the same as the contract known as the Ruby con tract. which contract had previously been openly violated by the union and rejected after they had solemnly entered into it. This proposition was presented at called meeting of the operators of Alabama, more largely attended than any meeting that has been held at any time by the alabama operators. After a full discussion of this proposition it was re- jected by the unanimoas vote of all the operators present, representing over 90 per cent of the tonnage of coal in Ala bama.
 This fact alone is sufficient answer to Mir. Liller's statement that the strike IS due to the action of what he terms the fighting committee and that it could be settled except for the membership or this committee. He insinuates very strongly that this committee is composed of men who do not work union labor who have made tremendous profits and who desire to prolong the strike in order to continue these profits at the expense of other operators not so fortunately sit uated. The insinuation is absolutely md rfnrra lifiedly false
