GREATEST COAL

Washington, Nov I7-The fippant manner some employers treat indus trail discord and their disregard for cause and effect Is shown in a state ment by bituminous coal owners to the Presidents fact finding coal com mission
 The coal owners declare that the frequency of coal strikes constitute the gravest problem in their industry
 This statement follows letter written by the miners to the commits sion, in which attention is. called to certain fundamental defects in the in dustry. The miners also declared for the complete recognitoin of their right to organize and bargain collectively 1t was the latter point that aroused the coal owners, who now charge that strikes. are the dominant evil. This charge by the coal owners is not sustained by the highest coal authority in this countrywide United States geological survey, which stated 20 years strikes have caused but IoIa per cent of the time lost in mines.
 "1n the 2o-year period, Iooo-IoIo, the operators reported a total loss of I24,747,Ioo man-days through strikes, but the loss attributable to other causes was I,o53,576,ooo man-days, or eight and a half times as great as the strike loss. To put it another way, in two decades American coal miners lost one and a sixth billion working days, of which Io.5 per cent was ascribable to strikes and Sos per cept to other causes, chief of which are no market, car shortage and mine dis ability"
 It would be supposed that the coal owners would face these facts, and assist in checking such waste of nored, and the commission Is regaled miners

Many of the Old GuardsrnenPass
 to Private Life

Washington. Nov. I7.-Among the outstanding victories of labor at the last election was the defeat of former United States Senator Beveridge of Indiana. During his primary cam paign he posed as a progressive and liberal. When nominated he pleaded the cause of reaction. He attacked organized workers, and declared in favor of pending reactionary legisla- ton. His attacks on labor were am swered with interest. The apostate will continue a private citizen, and his presidential nomination two years hence IS no longer a possibility.
 Senator Sutherland of West V1r- ginia was also defeated. He is re- spons1ble for the appointment of yer, to the federal judiciary, The new joining miners from living in their Mingo on private land, leased by them.
 Senator Poindexter of Washington, advocate of handcufing labor to it's task, is in the list of those who will stay at home after March 4 next. Senator Myers of Montana, another lrandcuffer, 'sensed" the coming storm and declined to be candidate, after serving I2 years
 Senator Kellogg of Minnesota, ad- vocate of protection to aliens," was defeated. He introduced bill which would permit federal authorities to invade a state and take charge of a strike when it involved even one single alien.
 Governor Allen of Kansas and his scan't-strike" law pass out of the public eye with the defeat of his can didate for governor and the election of a governor who is pledged to re- peal this law.
 George Hunt was elected governor of Arizona. He held that office in 1915 when miners suspended work in the Metcalf-Morenci copper district. Governor Hunt notified the copper barons at that time that they could not import strikebreakers or gun men into the state The miners secured a settlement.
 Governor Sweet, the new state ex- ecutive of Colorado, is committed against cossack rule in strikes.

In Puget sound when the octopus at

was able to pierce the body Of the
