Mine Workers Union Treasury
Attracts Mine Owners.

Coal companies, that were plain
tiffs in the. Coronado case are dis
satisfied with that decision and have
asked the United States supreme
court to rehear the case.
The lower courts held. that the
United Mine Workers were liable
for damages, that approximated
three-quarters Of a billion Of dollars.
The supreme court held that while
a trade union can be sued for dam
ages, the United Mine Workers ie
not liable in this case because the
Arkansas strike was a local affair
and not connected with the interna-
tional union Of mine workers.
The decision destroyed the hope
of anti-unioists and their attorneys
of reaching into the treasury of the
mine workers and now they call on
tho supreme court to rehear the
case.
The attorneys boldly charge the
court with essential mistakes and
misrepresentations Of the facts" and
insist that if they start a new suit
against the Arkansas miners, as held
by the United States supreme court
the coal companies will be exposed
to delay and further expense. Tc
avoid this they see no reason why
the decision against the United
Mine Workers should not be re.

INTERNATIONAL LABOR
OFFICE AND DISABLED

" As result of the meeting OF ex-
perts and delegates from various ma
tions to- discuss the condition of tho
disabled men in the various coun-
tries. which was held under the au-
spices Of the International Labor
office last spring, the office has had
the offer Of financial aid from vart-
Gus national societies If they agreed
to employ such funds in the prep
aration OF volume regarding the
treatment of disabled men in order
to fit them for industrial life. The
governing body Of the international
Labor office at its recent meeting in
Interlaken, decided to accept these
offers.
The governing body also decided
that when the question of the use OF
any surplus credit Of the budget
arose, they would discuss the creation
OF an International center for sthe
study of prosthesis, either by the
employment Of specialized collab,
orator or, otherwise.

claimed the truth right in open
court. It now Is matter of official
record.
Just how the attorney general car
concern himself as federal officer
with the question of the union shop
and the anti-union shop is a matter
of mystery to those who cling to the
belief that the constitution and the
laws of the country mean what they
say; but it isn't such a battling prob.
lem to those who know how the
game of politics is Played in these
piping times of golf and mayflowers
in Washington.
What Labor Has Said About
Injunctions.
The American Federation of La
Dor, in its conventions, has repeat
edly declared that where unlawful
injunctions are issued labor will
treat those injunctions "as if they
did not exist" which means that
workers will 90 down exercising their
lawful and constitutional rights, re-
fusing to recognize czar on the
OeNCH as superior 10 the COHSIlLULlOn
and the law.
Mr.. Daugherty doubtless knows
about this declaration. He doubtless
knows by now also that his Chicago
injunction is not going to turn mill
lions of American men into enslaved
cravens and that railroads cannot be
run by injunctions.
The whole thing has been an il
lustration of how desperate and how
ridiculous an administration can be,
particularly when it is burdened with
political debts of which it is con-
stantly reminded. Nothing has
shown more completely how hope
less and irresponsible are the pres
ent national political leaders. Care
full observers recall that none is
more dangerous than the irrespon-
sible-and that is the really menac-
ing factor in the present situation.
The strike will be won. And after
that American government will be
won back to a constitutional basis
through the ballots of American
workers. What Mr.. Daugherty told
the judge doesn't represent the will
Of the majority of Americans!
