urged on congress by President Hard
ing as necessary to relieve the govern
ment of present staggering losses" in
operation of the war-built merchant
fleet, and to establish a program of

NINE STRIKE ON IN EARNEST

The United Mine Workers have
launched their nation wide strike and
from all appearances they mean bust
ness. This is the most extensive mine
workers trike in the history of the
country.
1t is without doubt the final test of
the power of organized labor. If they
fail the labor interests of this country
will be at the mercy of the predatory
interests as never before.
That there has been a gigantic eff
fort of the big interests to break the
forces of organized labor is not debat-
able. Every effort to force down the
threats of the laborer the demands Of
the big interests, have been made.
The demands of the mine workers
are fair and the strike is staged at a
time when there is fair supply of
coal and the season is favorable to not
cause any large amount of suffering.
