contract with the United Mine Work
ers OF America hold out union dues
and assessments from miners pay.
will continue In force until further
order OF the Federal Court OF Appeals.
according TO decision made here by
that court yesterday.
The court suspended that part OF
the injunction issued at indianapolis
thfs week by Judge A. u. Anderson,
and fixed November 16 as the date for
hearing on appeal of the miners
union against the entire injunction.
The union asked an immediate hear
Ing or suspension OF the check@ofr
provision.
William A. Glasgow OF Philadelphia
and Henry Warrum OF indianapolis
appeared before Judges Baker, Al
schuler and Evans 20 invoke the
courts suspension Of the injunction
until complete examination OF the
matter should be made.
Mr.. Glasgow presented the history OF
the case briefly. pointing out the pos
slbilities OF enforcement OF the injunc-
tion which he said. was a virtual de-
mand that legal contract be broken.
He pointed out that the check-orf was
a matter OF contract between the min

| Mr.. Glasgow stated that II was be-
