eyewitness accounts Of the mine
fight Wednesday night and Thurs
day morning which brought dozens
OF casualties when FIVE thousand
armed striking miners attacked the
Lester strip mine near here. which
was being operated by imported
workers and guards.
The substance OF the staten nts
by the wounded, who were among
the besieged was that not a mine
worker was injured during the fight
ing, but that the numerous killed
were shot down in cold blood after
they had surrendered themselves
and their arms. There was nothing
from the union miners TO contradict
these claims. -
Several Of the men imported 10
work the mine absolved the strik-
ers from blame, saying that the ones
responsible were those who sent US
here under false promises that there
would be no trouble and that the
miners would not object"
Some of the wounded interviewed
were IN the hospital here. Others
were located in their homes through
secret channels.
Joseph O'Rourke. Chicago. com
missary clerk at the mine, gave the
most vivid account OF the fighting.
His story was related as he tossed
in pain from half a dozen bullet
holes through his body.
"I was sent down here by the
Bertrand commissary company OF
Chicago, he said. Il had no idea
what l was running into. I don't
blame the miners much for attack
ing US for we we're unknowingly be-

POLICY FOR SHOALS
Expert Says Such a Program
Would Eliminate Negotiat-
ing of Contract.

WASHINGTON, June 22.-(By A.
A)-Members of the senate agri-
cultural committee investigating
proposals to develop the govern
ment's projects at Muscle Shoals.
Ala. prepared Thursday to close
public meetings and began prepara-
ton of reports for senate considera-
ton.
Chairman Norris, after hearing
Mai ]. H. Burns Of the war de-
partment ordnance bureau review
the data collected by the depart
ment and congressional committees
and recommend a specific policy for
solution of the Muscle Shoals prob
lem announced that Fridays meet
ing probably would be the last open
session before the committee began
work in executive session.
Establishment of a permanent
policy by congress in its reference
to the executive governmental
branches. Maj. Burns said was the
best solution he could offer. II such
program was followed. he ex-
planned. II would eliminate the
necessity congress now faced of
negotiating a contract for develop
ment OF the projects by private in
terests.
other recommendation laid be-
fore the committee covered ques-
tions of retention and distribution
of the various properties involved
in the shoals and touched upon
length upon the navigation phase Of
the problem.
THE value OF the navigation de-
velopment at Muscle Shoals" Mai.
Burns said. lis somewhat doubtful.
1t has of course. many advocates.
The amount of river tariff at pres
ent is small but navigation facilities
are poor. With adequate facilities
traffic commensurate with the cost
of developing navigation might fol-
low.
a fair channel at present exists
from the mouth Of the river TO
Muscle Shoals and can be made in
70 a FIVE or six foot channel with
rather small expenditures"
Apparently permanent navigation
can only be achieved by the crea-
ton OF necessary locks. dams. etc.
in accordance with a broad river
policy.
Obstacle to Navigation.
Muscle Shoals is the most serious
obstacle TO navigation on the river.
The COMPLETION OF dam number two
was fitted into a permanent policy
and would give six foot navigation
over l5 miles Of the shoals. The
number three dam would similarly
fit into a permanent policy and
would give six foot navigation over
some 65 miles. These two dams
plus number one. which is necessary
10 connect number two dam with
downstream navigation could elimi
nate the Muscle Shoals obstacle.
The number two dam can pay
for itself on a power basis and
there can be little doubt therefore
as 10 the logic OF complete develop
ment.
The number three cannot sustain
itself as a power proposition at the
present time unless some $4,000. 600
are charged of 10 navigation. There
is considerable doubt as 20 whether
