cHARLESTOwN. W. Va. April
10. CUnited Press)-One OF the
most drastic injunctions against
labor in recent years was issued by
Federal Judge McChntic here today.
The temporary restraining order
prevents all further attempts OF
United Mine Workers of America to
organize the non-union field in West
Virginia and Eastern Kentucky and
orders the tent colonies in Mingo
county disbanded.
The court action was taken on
application OF the Borderland Coal
Company filed last October simul-
taneously with a petition to Judge
Anderson in the Federal District Of
Indiana, to abolish the check-oft.
Judge Anderson's decision against
check-off has never become effective.
The temporary injunction was
granted to maintain order in this
non-union field during the present
coal strike. Judge McClintock said.
