Workers of America. in which coal
miners throughout the province were
urged to strike in protest against
alleged brutality by provincial police
and federal troops called out to Quell
disorders attending the strike of
steel workers employed by the British
Empire Steel Corporation.
A copy of the letter, accusing the
authorities of brutalities against
men, women and children on the
streets and in their homes, and at
tacking Premier Armstrong as re-
sponsibIe for the situation, was turn
ed over to the police by F. w: Gray

officers of the crown said If the let
ter could be traced to Maciacntanii
and If the contention of the steel
corporation officials that 1T contained
punishable matter was found correct,
swift action might be anticipated.
The text of the letter follows;
"This office has been informed that
all the Waterford, Sydney mines and
Glacebay subdistrictc are out on
strike this morning as a protest
against the importation OF provincial
police and federal troops INTO sgd
new to tntimidate the steel workers
into continuing work at 50 cents an
hour.
"on Sunday night last these pro-
vincial police, in the. most brutal
manner, rode down the people at
whitney Pier who were on the street,
most Of whom were coming from
church. Neither age, sex nor ply
sical disabilities were proof against
these brutes.
Women and Children.
"One old woman over seventy years
old was beaten into insensibility and
may die. a boy nine years old was
trampled under the horses feet and
had his breast bone crushed in. One
woman, beaten over the head with
a police club, gave premature birth to
child. The child Is dead and the
woman's life despaired Of Men and
women were beaten up INSIDE thelr
own homes.
Against these brutes the miners
are on strike. The governor of Nova
Scotia is the guilty and responsible
party for this crime. No miner or
mine worker can remain at work
while this government turns Sydney
into jungle. To do SO is to sink your
manhood and allow Armstrong (the
premier) and his miserable bunch OF
grating politicians to trample your
last shred of freedom on the sand.

try. The report was unanimously
adopted by the institute. The report
stated that the twelve-hour day In
the steel industry was not necessarily
injurious to the employees, physically.
mentally or morally. and that the
shortage of labor made 1t impossible
to shorten hours without seriously
curtailing needed production.
1.-The committee also reported that
the abandonment of the twelve-hour
day in the iron and steel industry
would require at least $4,000 addi-
tional employees, and would cause a
Is per cent increase in prices; that
later, if the labor supply should be
increased by the removal of some i'm
migration restrictions and the public
should be willing to pay an increased
price, the shortening of the work-day
might be considered.
1.-THE worker preferred the longer
shift of twelve hours. the report con-
tinued, because 1T permits larger
compensation per day."
Following the announcement of the
committees report, President Hard
ing expressed himself as being keenly
with the action of the
institute, and subsequently requested
the institute to pledge itself to the
a BOLTON of the twelve-hour day.
