Boston, July 13.-Recovery from
economic depression in the United

upon courage and applied intelli-

Hoover declared here today, in an
address before the National Shoe and

''There may be no recovery from
these hard times for many years to
come" Mr.. Hoover said, IF we neg

The hard times that knock at every
cottage door came from Europe. Nc
tariffs, no embargoes, no navies. no
armies, can ever defend us from
these invasions. Our sole defense is
the prosperity of our neighbors and
our own commercial skill. The re-
covery of our foreign trade can

Coal Mime Troubles.

Washington, July IA senate
committee began today an investiga-
tion of the disorders i'm the Mfngo
coal fields of West Virginia which
have led recently to declaration of
martial law by the governor, Neil
Birkenshaw, representing the United
Mine Workers, being the first wit
ness called. The trouble was due he
said to a lock out of Union miners by
mine operators.
Miners had been evicted from the
company home and "terrorized by
gun men, Birkenshaw asserted, many
having been housed in tent cities.
These people are So per cent Ameri-
can born he said and mine operators
are employing Spaniards, Greeks,
and Italians to take the place of the
striking miners.
ePaylor Vincent for the operators
said Birkenshaw's statement would
be overthrown by evidence"
For twenty years the miners and
employers Lived in peace many OF
them making $500 to 500 n
month and that this condition per-
sisted until the United Mine Workers;
sought to get control of the field.

United States Mine Workers mp to
1912 was straight labor union but
that in this year it adopted prfnef-
pals that have turned it's membership
into band of robbers" Vincent
said These are strong words but.
what they have done is to declare
that they viii never remain satisfied
with any return for heir labor except
that which includes the full social
value OF the coal that is mined.
Every murder and riot In West
Virginia can be laid TO this policy OF
the United Mine workers first to un-
fonize them and then to own the
mines"
Where do you get Interpretation
for that term social value? asked
Senator Kenyon. From the mouth OF
their officers and delegates, replied
