COAL MINERS
AWFUL PLIGHT
is REVEALED

New York.--"No Egyptian Phar-
aoh, rearing for his glory tower
ing monument, ever drove his slaves
harder than these miners were driv-
en-. No ear was more autocratic
than this big business"
The above Is part of a report Of a
committee appointed by Mayor Hylan
to investigate labor conditions in the
Berwind coal mines in Somerset and
Cambria counties, Pennsylvania,
which supply the interborough rapid
transit company with coal.
The report states that +. j. Ber-
wind, president Of the Berwind- White
company, as chairman of the board of
directors of the interborough, con-
trolls the coal cupply policy Of the
transit company, which has made IL
possible for him ito purchase from his
own company coal mined under unfair
and heartbreaking conditions and reap
therefrom enormous profits, amount
ing in 1921 to over 81 100000, with
corresponding financial detriment to
the tax and rent payers in the city OF
New York" The report recommends
that the government take over the
coal fields.
"Instead of receiving assistance to
get the TRUTH" the report said, "the
committee met insults at almost every
urn from the Berwind- White mining
company. The officials of the com
pany refused the committees invita-
ton to attend the hearings, but en-
deavored to entrap il behind closed
doors, the favOrite method of soulless
corporations.
"fhe committee heard narrowing
tales Of suffering and deprivation, and
saw in tents, hen houses, stables and
in other improvised homes, women
and children whose feet were bare
and bleeding and whose bodies were
thinly clad.
at did not take long TO learn that
the Berwind-White company officials
treated their employees as beasts Of
burden and sacrificed the lives and
limbs Of thousands of men and the
happiness and future of thousands of
women and children to build for them
selves an industrial autocracy.
"Sad as II is, the charges Of under
paying, short weighing and over
charging for food and clothing
against the company by its striking
employees are only too true. The de-
jected condition of the miners, the
wasted bodies of their wives and the
sad faces of their understood children
testified in the strongest terms to
their helpless and poverty-stricken
condition.
"The stories Of these poverty
stricken people were such as would
melt any heart except that in the
stony bosom of q coal baron.
AT all the mines which the com
mittee visited, II found most of the
women and children barefooted and
scantiIy clad. The feet and limbs Of
most Of these unfortunates, particu-
/ larry those Of the children, were
scared and bleeding from walking on
hard ice, through underbrush and over
/ stones.
