TIME TO MEET THE ISSUE.


In refusing arbitration the United
Mine Workers have issued a defiance
not only against the mine owners but
against the people of the United
States John L. Lewis has said in
so many words that if the terms of
the miners are not met there will be
no hard coal mined The public is not
even considered. 1t is time, there
fore, for the public to do a little con
sidering on its own account!
Bear in mind that there is no hui
manitarian point involved. The min
ers are we'll paid. They are earning
more money than the "white collar"
class in the cities. They are receiving
the highest war wages. But they
want more! Or rather the leaders
say they do.
Many of the rank and file, if not
the majority of them, are willing to
let well enough alone. Many of them
will be sandbagged into the strike.
The leaders wanted the strike. The
question of wages with them is
merely a smoke screen! They are
after power! Their principal demand
is recognition of the union and along
with it the check off system by (which
they fasten the union on to the men
themselves! They are out to COM
pletely unionize the coal fields of Am
erica!
Had it not been for the non union
anthracite fields during last years
strike, industry would have been com.
p1etely throttled! Complete unioni
cation of the coal fields would place
them under the dictatorship Of Lewis
Gompers and the rest. The next steI
would be naturalization of the mines
That would mean that the union!
would expect to dominate the coal in
dustry in even greater degree, because
they would expect to dominate veal
kneed politicians, just as the railroad
did with the Adamson law.
With the control Of this basic indus
try they would expect to control al
other industry! 1t is all part Of
skillfully prepared plan to sovietiz
America! It is time for American
to think and to act!
Is there any power within the Dor
ders of the United States greater tina
the Government of the United States
Has John L. Lewis, president Of tn
United Mine Workers of America
more power than Calvin Coolidge, tn
President of the United States of An
erica? John l.. Lewis represents
group of radicals who have so maniI
ulated men working in the coal field
as to possess enormous power. Ca
vim Collidge represents the people {
the United States in their sovereig
power as a nation
The coal strike is a strike again'
the sovereignty of the American Coz
ernment-the American people!
This is America.-New York Con
mercial.

HON. SCOTT NJ. HOGAN
Member Of the City Council from the old 31st Ward who will
Tuesday, February ~, be reelected to it from
the 18th Ward

Il come to you tonight as a Jew
and a Jewish teacher because / know
as few men have had cause to know
how injustice hurts, how it gals and
how long continued oppression may
degrade. l know-without uttering a
word Of bitterness or Of hatred, for |
feel none against my oppressors and
my peoples oppressors - my chief
business in life is to move my people
to stand erect, to lift their voices to
the skies and to know that no mat
ter what the world without may do
to them they must keep their souls
undefled.
Il come to you tonight son and
teacher of one of the earliest and old
est races in history who have achieved
high culture; come to you the scion
of race which gave to the western
world its Bible, old and new, its
patriarchs, its kings, its prophets, its
evangelists the race which gave to
the world Abraham and Moses and
Elijah and Isaiah and Jesus and John
and Paul, the race which gave to the
world the things of the spirit by
which it lives; and | say to you,
members, sons and daughters of the
newest, in many senses, of the races
who have been suffered to emerge
from the darkness, 1 bid you have
courage and fear not. To you /
speak the word of Isaiah to my peo-
pie, Fear thou not, my servant; fear
thou not, my servant
There shall be a minimum of JUS
tice and liberty laid at your door, and
on the other hand those Americans
who, like you and me, love our coun-
try, who believe that America and
even-handed justice must be inter
changeable terms-we stand with YOU.
we will support you, we will fight
with you, lawfully in the American
way, not in the lawless way Of the
lyncher; we will fight with you as
men and women until this shame
shall have been ended, until lynching
shall forever have passed from the
vocabulary and the life of the Ameri-
can people.
And you, sons and daughters of
the Negro race, will render a great
service, supreme service, to your
and my America if instead of bowling
your backs beneath the yoke Of this
foul and fendish oppression, you say
to America: 1--WE are men; we mean
to live as men. Our wrongdoers
shall be punished and utterly punished
under and by the processes Of the
law; but lynching shall not be the
portion Of any man, white or black,
who lives under the American skies. /"
