CLAIMS STRIKE
IS 100 PER CENT
JOHN L. LEWIS, PRESIDENT OF
UNITED MINE WORKERS,
MAKES STATEMENT.
SAYS 100000 MINERS QUIT
Declares Non-Union Mine Production
Has Been Exaggerated and Pinch
Would Come Much Earlier
Than Expected.

WashingtOn-The national coal strike
is 100 per cent effective in the union
lied bituminous and anthracite coal
mines of the country, and is getting
support in non-union territory, John
L. Lewis, president of the United Mine
Workers, declared on his arrival here
to attend congressional hearings.
There are 100000 miners ready to
stay out Of the mines indefinitely, I'M
I'll the operators are ready 10 discuss
with US the question of new wage
agreements in the central competitive
field" Mr.. Lewis declared, adding that
while the union "cOurted investigation
for itself and the bituminous industry,
it seeks no government intervention,
but does ask for the support of public
opinion in fighting the operators to
continue collective bargaining with
miners over wages and working condi-
tons"
Discussing coal reserves and the eff
feet of the strike in the interest of
consumers, Mr.. Lewis strongly adj
vanced the opinion that "a pinch would
come earlier than expected"
He declared non-union mine produc-
ton had been greatly exaggerated"
and said that operators had been more
or less openly following tactics that
forced a strike so they could get high
er prices and greater profits"

son, drawn by six horses, had been
borne through the ranks of silent null
titudes. Stern generals had saIuted
the flag which wrapped him. Hun
dreds of his comrades had marched
beside him. Guns had doomed in his
honor, statesmen had eulogized his
deeds, mothers had wept over him,
and taps" the soldiers farewell. had
given him Godspeed.
The body of Private Graves had
been chosen to receive the honors of
the day because he, Of the 1905 on
board the troop ship, was the last to
