says he was sitting in Room ll6 of
Ward Bl on the main floor when the
door was hurled open by five white
soldiers, who stood in the door with
mob behind them, cursing, brandish-
ing razors, and concealng automatic
pistols under their sweaters. Bagley
SAYS he warned them away because
the noise made one of the sick pa
tients nervous.
The mob then rushed for the door
hurling cups and plates. The men
then barricaded the door with bed
dressed hurriedlys and fled from the
hospital through the window.
White Soldier Admits Part
A wounded white soldier, George
German. admitted that he took part
in the disorder, boasting that he had
killed bigger niggers than they
were" when one of the men cursed
at him. He said he had never felt
kindly toward the patients in that
ward since a white nurse had been in
suited there. He also charged thar
one OF the soldiers menaced him with
a gun.
100 Patients at Hospital
There are about 900 ex-soldiers at
the hospital One hundred of them
are colored. Repeated complaints
have been made that they are the vic
tins of discrimination and jim Grow
treatment. All such charges have
been strenuously denied by the hos
ptal authorities. A special board of
inquiry has been appointed to inves-
tigate all charges.
Among the soldiers who fed from
the hospital were: Thomas Johnson.

|HAND-PICKED JUDGE
 RUNS TRUE TO FORM
 IN LABOR MATTERS
McClintic Issues Arbitrary Injunc- tions But Is Overruled By
 Higher Court.

Three of the most arbitrary in functions ever issued against organ ized labor emanating from the court of Federal Judge George M. McClin- tic, Charleston, w. Va, have tempor- arily been set aside by Judge Martin A. Knapp, of the Federal circuit court of appeals at Richmond, Va. This action was based upon an appeal taken by the miners officials.
 The miners were directed to aban- don tent colonies in Logan county, thus depriving several hundred wom- en and children of the only homes they have known for two years and are prevented from giving any furth- CT relief in food and clothing. They were enjoined from making any effort to win over non-union workers.
 They were denied the right to carry on the orderly and lawful activities of the local unions.
 The tent colonies are located on private land leased by the miners and
 have been occupied by locked-out miners of the Mingo operators. The refugees who have been gathered 1 there have been subjected to heart less treatment by the operators
 through their paid gun men, who have made several unsuccessful et- forts to force the unions to abandon them.
 Julge McClintic took the position that the existence of the colonies inn perils the peace and dignity" of the commonwealth and decreed that they
 should be destroyed, He directed that the miners famil- ies be set out on the roadside, with
 their meager belongings.
 In this high-handed and inhuman proceeding Judge McClintic was run ming true to predictions of what would happen if he were named judge,
 made by Congressmen from West Virginia when President Harding was considering his appointment last uly In a joint letter to the President | Representative Goodykoontz, Rosen-
 bloom, and Woodward, republicans vigorously protested against McClin- tic as entirely unfit for judicial re- responsibilities. He was represented as being Stubborn, overbearing, and
 autocratic" and as wholly lacking 1T l Judicial temperament.
 l Evidently very strong pressure was brought to bear upon MT Harding 1T favor of McClintic, for he paid no at tention 10 the appeal of part of the
 Republican delegation from West Vir, l ginia
 McClintic had the endorsement ol Senator ElIlins, West Virginia coa
 baron, and the coal operators asso
 citations of that state.
 That they made no mistake in theil
 man is evidenced by the fact tha practically the first official act out O. the routine was the issuing of in functions that violate every right helc
 by the workers of West Virginia.

pass a joint resolution or bill ap- plying the bituminous coal commits ion's award of 1920 to all soft coal operations, Philip Murray, vice-presl- lent of the United Mine Workers of America, declared at debate on the cal strike
 Another requirement., he said, would be a recommendation to Pres dent Harding to call a national con- erence of the representatives to ne gotiate a new agreement.
 He also recommended as per 1anent policy for regulating produc- ion and stabilizing the industry, the appointment of "a representative, echnical and official commission charged with the duty of collecting and analyzing all the facts and with making sound and appropriate rec concentrations"
 The subject debated was "What Lies Back of the Coal Strike, and What Lies Ahead" Mr. Murray pre- scented the miners side of the con- troversy and Thomas H. Watkins, president of the Pennsylvania Coal & Coke Company, the operators viewpoint. The public's attitude was interpreted by Harry A. Garfield, president of Williams College, who was national coal administrator un- der President Wilson, and by Robert w. Bruere, director of the bureau of industrial research.
 The application of the award oi the presidents coal commission of 1920 to both union and non-union fields, MT. Murray stated, would re-
The Connecticut labor news., 1922-04-28

On the one hand, organized em- ployers carry into effect a we'll planned nationwide campaign to de- stroy trade-unions; on the other, the equity court restraints trade-unionists from striking, or, if they are on strike, restraints them from communi- eating the facts connected with the dispute through the press, through public meetings, or otherwise. Their
 right to free speech is deliberately destroyed. The employer who has
 been the aggressor Is left free and
 unhampered in the use Of his con stitutional rights. The wage earner's
 hands are shackled, his mouth gagged
 and, so far as the court of equity may do so, he is rendered incapable of doing anything for his self-protection. Will the unions permit themselves to be destroyed.
 Is it to be true that trade-unlop organizations shall exist only when and where the employer grants con- sent, and that if he objects, equity courts will sustain him in whatever efforts he makes to destroy the trade
 union organization of his employees? From the facts which have been

Whence-Why-What For!

1 presented it is evident that in many cases where an injunction IS issued, the wage earner must choose between the rights guaranteed by our Constl l tuition and the inhibitions, command | ments and edicts of an equity court. Efforts to prohibit free speech, and the right to form and maintain trade unions have been made in other coun- tries, as we'll as in the United States. They have always failed because an ! intelligent, freedom-loving people | have refused to tolerate any such l tyrannical conditions.
 The unconstitutional edicts of ] American courts of equity will meet mass of American citizens. Love of justice, of freedom, of equal rights are too deeply imbedded in our American institutions and too firmly
 ingrained in the citizens breasts to I long permit of those abuses by courts of equity which we have reviewed. l Labor will not permit itself to be strangled without resistance, or to
 be gagged by an equity court whose
 authority for it's usurped power is its 'conscience."
 | As between our constitutional ! guarantees and the edicts of equity ! courts there can be no compromise; one or the other must survive and dominate. Neither the wage earner
 nor the citizenship of our country will
 long permit government by judicial
 "conscience" to supersede govern
 ment by law, based upon the prin- l ciples enunciated in the Constitution | For every wrong there must be a
 redress. So speaks the law. So as
 sert5 labor. There must be redress
 against this encroachment, this us
 urpation, this de-constitutionalizing oi
 America. There will be redress! In
 the organization of labor lies the
 wage earners' strength. Through or
 ganized labor star chambers-courts
 of equity from which inequity issues
 contempt and all the inquisitorial pro Iceedings of an un-American type will
 be destroyed. The spirit of the found
 CTS and framers of our Constitution
 will again be given the breath of life
 that we may live to cherish and to
 enjoy the blessing of a FREE

MINERS MARK TIME
 AS CONGRESS LETS
 LIGHT INTO ISSUE
Legislation Proposed Follows Sug- gestions Given by Union
 Workers Officials.

The situation from the viewpoint of the miners is more than satlsfac- tory. The miners of our organization are standing firm as granite. They have won over thousands of non- union miners to their cause. Wherever we can break through the cordon of gunmen guarding non-union territory we are drawing men from the mines. Public opinion is with us, because our fight is just. We are going to win" This is the tie-up of the coal in dustry summarized by Ellis Searles, editor of the United Mine Workers l Journal.
 The miners leaders are prepared
 for the finish fight prophes1ed by the operators. They are digging in and | point. They have been somewhat re tarded by injunctions issued by Fed l eral Judge McClintic in West Virginia and the activities of the state police and mine guards in Pennsylvania. In l spite of these opposing forces, sub 1 stantial headway has been made III
 both regions.
 ! In the union districts the miners are closed down tight, no attempt be- ing made to get out coal.
 Meanwhile, the House committee
 on labor plans to let more light into
 the industry through public hearings
 on substitute bill offered by Rep | resentative Oscar E Bland of In diana, which follows along the lines
 suggested by John Brophy, president
 of the Pennsylvania miners, for l fact-hnding agency. Chairman John I. Nolan, of the
 committee, began hearings on Thurs
 day and hopes to secure information
 that will give a clearer public under standing of the issues involved in the nations greatest industrial contest. 1 The investigation commission pro posed by the Bland bill would be 1 composed of the director of the Geo
 logical Survey, the director of the
 Bureau of Mines, the director of the
 Census, and the commissioner of la
 bor statistics, with six members to
 be appointed by the President two ot
 whom shall represent the mine own

 The commission is to expire by
 limitation two years from the day oi its creation.

TRUST BOOSTS PRICES;
 PROFITS BREAK RECORD

New York, April 28.-The Amer ican Woolen company has raised prices on its woolen lines. from 10 to 45 cents yard. It is stated that the "sold-up condition of the company's woolen mills" will permit of only a limited number of duplicate orders.
 This price increase follows the an- nouncement last month that the trusts clear profits in 1921 totaled $o,Io2, 2,62I.73.
 In 1920, the trusts clear profits were $o,8s5I6 and in 1918 the trust increased its clear profits 316 per cent. over 1914.
 These profits have increased as the trust reduced wages.

move from the union operators "the menace of the vicious competition of non-union operators and bring about uniformity in wages and working conditions"
 "As soon as these conditions were brought about" he added, "there would be no opposition to a national conference of operators and mine workers, and a new working agree ment without doubt would be nego- tiated. The industry could then re- sume operations under favorable con- ditions and await the report of the coal commission as to constructive measures for the permanent solution of over-expansion and irregularity of operation"

A GREATER SERVICE
CONCLUDING ARTICLE By JOHN P. FREY

With this article John P Frey concludes his remarkable series ol articles on the injunction.
 Mir. Frey has performed serv- ice of lasting value. He has made clear the heinous character of the injunction as labor knows it, the unjustihed attitude of courts, the whole pretense and fraud of the denial of rights by injunction.
 It is hoped that it may not be long before the entire series of articles may be available in book fofm.
 International Labor News Serv- ice takes great pride in having fur nished the medium through which these articles were furnished to the .-4uUr pleoS ana through the labOl press to the workers of the United States It hopes to have the satis- faction of performing many more such services.
