HUNGER CLAIMS
VICTIMS AMONG
MINE FAMILIES

New York, March 30.-Thirty-
five thousand families of miners
In West Virginia are in danger
Of starvation because Of the wide
unemployment in that state, ac-
cording to Fred Mooney, secretary
of District IT Of rne United Mine
Workers of America.
Mooney came to New York with
Frank L. Snyder, editor Of the
West Virginia Federationist, and
w. T. Harris, president Of the West
Virginia State Federation Of La
Dor, raising funds for the desti-
tute miners.
"There are 10000 miners in
West Virginia out of work to-
day." said Mooney. Among
them are many who have not
worked more than .nree months
since the armistice was signed in
1918. They are from the Kanaw-
ha fields and the Grafton fields
in northern West Virginia.
Little Work Available
mines In the Ksnawaha field
have ben operating less than ten
per cent in the last four months
In the Grafton field, out Of 121
mines seventeen are operating
part time, which is generally
about two or three days week.
"A few days ago l talked to
miners at Michigan and Elmo, W.
Va, who had not bite to eat
for three days. At Beach Glenn.
w. Va, in Fayette county, they
have only worked fourteen days
in 1920 and 1921. In Mount
Clare there are 600 miners who
have worked but thirty days in
the last two years.
1.-THE Blooming Rose Mine
Camp, in Boone county, has no
food at all. In many Of these
communities whsre there are in
dependent stores, as in Smithers.
West Virginia, the stores have
been closed since they suspended
business, about December /. In
Bellslow, w. Va, there are sixty
three families. and for nineteen
months they have suffered with
out ever making a direct appeal
for relief.
''In Terrible Circumstances
Many Of the statements about
these conditions in West Virginia
have been questioned by the state
officials and by their so-called in
yestigators. Mayor C. w. Camp
bell, OF Huntington, w. Va, made
a personal investigation at Wini-
frede, little place about twelve
miles from the state capital. On
his return he made a personal do
nation Of $3.50 and started a fund

as Mayor of the city of Hunting
ton to relieve the destitute fum-
lilies. There are 29S families in
terrible circumstances at Wini-
frede.
"The reason for the unem-
ployment in West Virginia union
fields, as we see it, is because
the operators want the miners to
break their contracts with them
and go to work at greatly reouc-
ed wages. The contracts which
the operators want to see broken
are those made by the government
in 1919 as a result of the bitum-
inous coal commission award.
"The operators asked for con
ference to discuss the wage ques-
tion about six months ago. They
wanted a reduction in wages.
Gust a Little Work"
I'VE put the question OF employ
ment to them direct. Gould you
promise US 100 per cent time?
we asked them. The replied MOI
Gould you promise US so per cent
timer They replied MOI Gould
you assure US 25 per cent work"
Again they said MOI What
could you give us?' we asked.
Just a little work, but we can't
promise anything" was their an
swer.
THE operators in the fields
are trying to bring about an open
shop policy and 10 smash the
union SO badly that when the con
tracts expire on April 1 the union
will be powerless 70 negotiate
with the operators"

that they were carried safely
packed in the ivory dressing case
in the luggage strapped to the
back of the travelling coach.
King and Queen Fly to Varennes.
How the adventurous heart Of
Marie must have beat on that
night in June when she and her
husband and their two children,
in disguise, crept out of the palace
Of the Tuileries, circled the city,
and gained their travelling coach
on the Chalons road. And how
eagerly she must have counted the
miles as they slipped by, each one
bringing her nearer to the life
she desired-homage, bowling, fine
compliments, kissing of hands,
luxury, extravagance-the grand
old order of things again!
Near Varennes q man on horse
back dashed by the coach. He
shouted some words which were
drowned by the rattling of the
wheels over the cobble road. In
all probability they were: "You
are discoveredW
A Flight That Failed.
At Varennes there was some
misunderstanding about a change
of horses. The king, disguised as
a page, argued with the driver in
the lower town, while the fresh
horses waited in the upper. At
last they started on again, only
to find the bridge between the
two towns blocked by troops Of
the National Guard and armed
peasantry. They had lost!
Later Marie, sitting between
two piles of candles in the grocery
store of one Sance, Mayor Of the
town, talked to the wife of the
good man while the king, at the
other end of the shop, tried to
explain why he had left Paris.
Marie entreated the wife to in
iuence her husband to save the
king.
"Bless me, madame, It would
be the destruction of NJ. Sance,"
was the reply. "I love my king;
but, by our lady, l love my hus-
band too, you must know; and he
would be answerable, you see."
So it was decided to take king
and queen back to Paris
Stagecoach or aeroplane, ivory
dressing case or silver vanity box,
the results in these two attempts
to regain royal power were both
disastrous. Louis XVI and Marie
Antoinette were arrested, later to
be guillotined; Charles and Zita
were arrested, but being consid-
erably more lucky, were banished
to the pleasant island Of Madeira
for the rest Of their dayA

Aeroplane or Stagecoach,
Silver Vanity Case or
Ivory Dressing Chest
Results Were Nearly
the Same.

COME months ago ex-Empress
~ Zita of the Hapsburgs accom-
panied her husband, Charles, in a
last futile attempt to regain his
crown. They flew from Switzer-
land to their native Hungary in
an aeroplane-a typically modern
way to bring about a coup d. etat.
But the cramped cockpit of an
aeroplane is a tiny place to con-
tain the personal fnery Of an
empress who is going back to her
former glory, to say nothing of
the extra collar, spare shirt and
necktie which Charles must have
taken along. In all probability
Zita carefully adapted her ward
robe to the accommodations, but
without doubt she carried vanity
case with her favorite perfume.
Even the speed of departure and
the danger Of the flight could not
deprive the woman Of today of
these necessities.
This most modern and expedi-
tious method of flight to regain
a throne recalls another famous
attempt made long ago, when
other monarchs tried by other
means to regain the power and
homage they felt their due.
Styles In personal adornment
and methods of travel have
changed much since the June
night in 1871 when Marie An
toinette accompanied Louis XVI
of France on the famous flight
to Varennes, which in ultimate
effect was even more disastrous
than the attempt recently made
by Charles and Zita. Louis and
Marie Travelled by stagecoach.
