Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1925-03-27

"No such conference was ever held"
declares the United Mine Workers
Journal. "The story was manufactur-
ed out of whole cloth, without one
single word to sustain it. President
Lewis has not held any such confer
ence with Secretary Hoover nor any
one else. Nor is he gong to hold any
conference with anyone that has for
it's purpose the modification or abro-
CATION of the Jacksonville agreement.
On the date the story says President
Lewis held his conference with Sec
retary Hoover, President Lewis was
at international headquarters at In
dianapolis and during that day he
went to his home in Springfield, Ill
incis. We do not know where Secre-
tary Hoover was on that day, but we
do know that he did not see Presi-
dent Lewis"
The propagandists also claim that
the Jacksonville agreement is war
time scale" These rates were fixed
in 1920 by President Wilson's bitum-
inous coal commission, following the
general strike of 1919. The commits
sion made it's decision more than a
year after the world war. In 1922 the
coal owners renewed their attempt to
cut wages, and another general strike
followed This resulted in an accept
ance of the commissions award until
April of last year, when it was re-
newed for three years at Jacksonville,
Fla. Since then coal owners have
been engaged in a propaganda to an
nul this contract.
The union miners point to the ver-
dict of every unbiased student of the
industry that the causes for present
mine conditions are economic and
deep-seated. Wage reductions in un-
ion mines would be quickly met by
anti-union coal owners lowering their
present low rates, and the alleged
remedy for the conditions would prove
70 be a general lowering of workers
living standards without the sale of
an additional ton of coal in a market
that is now glutted by overproduc-
tion and high cost mines.
In support of the unions position,
these workers refer to the following
statement by the Fairmont West Vir-
ginian, published in the center of the
non-union coal fields of that state:
"That the troubles with the coal
business is more than a question of
wages is demonstrated by the fact
that while the non-union fields Of
southern West Virginia have been
breaking records in the production of
coal, yet, with very few exceptions,
the coal operators are all losing
money. Some of them are going into
bankruptcy and others are nearing
that condition. The tremendous pro-
duction of these fields is in itself
more of a detriment to the prosperity
of the coal companies than one would
think. This is due to the fact that in
their efforts to secure orders the op-
orators are cutting their prices to a
point so low that there is no profit
left. In fact, some of them have gone
SO far as to ship hundreds of cars of
coal to various distributing centers
without having any orders for them,
taking their chances on selling the
coal upon it's arrival At one time
there were as many as 1,500 cars in
the railroad yards in and about Chi
cago, which had not been sold, and
some of it had to be sold for the ac-
cumulated freight charges.
GAS long as such methods of sales
manship are practiced in the coal bus

THE ORGANIZED COAL MINERS WON'T JOIN
IN CUT THROAT WAGE COMPETITION
Alleged Conference Between Hoover and Lewis
Is Lie Without Truth or Foundation

Indianapolis Ind-Coal and coal trade journals
conducting propaganda mold public opinion against
which they signed with the United Mine Workers at
Jacksonville last year.
Part propaganda the impression that the
vors scrappng the contract and that Secretary OF
Commerce held conference with John L. Lewis inter-
president of the Miners how the agreement be
abrogaed This story has been wide publication by news
papers, although there semblance of truth in it.

ployed.
"The migrations are responsible for
the importation of contagious dis
eases and increase the difficulties of
maintaining proper sanitary condi-
tions.
"This disorganized condition of
the cheap labor market and its
attendant unemployment creates
burden on the general taxpay-
er, who must extend relief
through the county charities and
health departments when in JUS
tice the burden should be borne
by the employing groups respon-
sible for the presence of cheap
labor"

DON'T VOUCH FOR 1T

While listening in on comments and.
criticisms regarding the nitroglycer-
inc explosion which wiped one of the
factory buildings off the map ten
miles east of town last Sunday after
noon, leaving hole said to be fifty
feet deep and some hundred yards or
so in diameter, as an evidence of its
force, one of the parties made the as
srtlon that it was a common practice
of drivers of wagons and trucks carry
ing nitroglycerine to pass through the
business districts of the city day and
night, and that frequently a truck
"loaded to the brim" with the dead
ly mixture was parked over night at
a garage within gunshot of the court
house square.
Whether this be a fact or not the
III. M" was unable to definitely dis
cover, but if such really be the case,
would it not be well to put a stop to
so dangerous practice?
DOGS IN HARD ROW OF STUMPS
They're still hot after the dogs and
dog owners-if they can't get 'em one
way they are bound to succeed in
another.
The plan now in vogue is to accuse
a fellow of owning and harboring
dog and permitting the animal to run
at large to the mental and bodily
anguish of the neighbors. Arrest
and frequent conviction follows; the
usual penalty being 800 and costs,
the fine in most cases being suspend
ed, if the owner pays the costs and
either chains up the dog or has the
animal killed.
The dog cases come so fast and
thick that they are too common to
excite comment Just the other day
there were three disposed of-the
stereotyped 500 etc being meted out,
and five more were slated for the
next day.
Usually the owners are the only

vel. However, the department
has more than 100 miles of snow
fence erected and is trying out
experimental work toward keep
ing the trunk routes open IN win
ter, although funds viii not now
permit of snow removal over the
1000 miles.
1t may be Of interest that
where the snow is cleared the
farmers often complain that it
has prevented the use of sleds.
And where there is no snow re-
moval, complaints are that the
cars cannot be used.
Department crews are instruc-
ted, of course, to carry on their
work along practical lines and
give the road users the best ser
vice. The snow plows ordinarily
leave three or four inches of
snow on the travelled way. When
thaws cause this TO disappear,
there is usually some left at the
sides If anywhere that is still
available for sleds In many
places, however, grades are too
narrow for a dual system to ac-
comodate both wheels and run
ners.
After all the problem is one
demanding exercise of common
sense, rather than hard and fast
rules. Should Mr.. Pembleton or
other readers of the American
find a state department crew
clearing snow off trunk routes
md suggest to the foreman a way
10 obtain more satisfactory re-
ults, they doubtless will discov-
.r that the crews are amenable
