fight Of the British coal diggers must
enter and gain welcome audience.
That is the task of the worker cor
respondents of The DAILY WORK
Err.
You, worker correspondents, must
write as you have never written be-
fore. Every meeting of labor UNI
ion addressed by the spokesman Of
the British mine strikers must be
reported. The story must be sent in,
of the reception given the speaker,
the action Of the union, the plans
made for the collection of additional
funds. Every day scores of such
reports should flow into the editorial
office of The DAILY WORKER de-
handing publication. Such reports
will put spirit into the relief drive
everywhere.
Our visitors from England cannot
appear before all local labor unions.
the tours laid out do not even carry
them beyond the Mississippi River,
hardly half way across the CONT
nent But the workers everywhere
are thinking, talking about the Brit
ish strike. Worker correspondents
can bring up the question in the un-
ions, on their jobs, wherever work
ers assemble. Write what the work
ers of San Francisco and Los An
geles, Seattle and Portland, are
thinking of this strike, as we'll as
the workers of New York and
Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore.
Worker correspondents, every
where, mobilize for this task! You
should have been on the job, instinc-
lively, long ere this. But there is
yet time.
Not even in Chicago, where The
DAILY WORKER is published, must
the worker correspondents depend
on the limited editorial staff of
''our Daily" to cover all the ramifica-
tions of this relief campaign. The
same is true in New York City,
where all worker correspondents
must go into action.
The fact that the capitalist press
is either ignoring or combating the
presence Of the British delegation
in this country should spur every
worker correspondent to do his best.
In Chicago, the capitalist press is
completely ignoring the presence of
Paul McKenna in the city. His APP
pearance before the Chicago Fed
Grafton of Labor lac= Sunday did not
receive a single word of notice. In
the east the enemy press either re-
ports that the striking miners are
not in need, the worst kind of a lie,
or that the strike will be over in a
few days. This propaganda is sup
ported by interviews with Premier
Baldwin and other enemies of the
miners in England.

Similarity between the coal prob

BRITISH WOMEN
PLAY imp ORTANT
ROLE in STRIKE.
Help Men Carry on Mil
liant Fight
By BILL ROSS, Federated Press.

LONDON FP)-The part women
play in the British miners fight was
indicated by DR.. Marion Phillips, sec
rotary of the women's committee for
the relief of miners wives and chill
dren, in an interview with the Fed
Grated Press. She said that over
S750,00O had been collected and ad-
ministered by women exclusively, and
praised the miners wives on the COM
mittees distributing relief.
THE very women who serve on our
committees are in dire need them
selves. Cases have been frequent
where committeewomen wore out
their shoes on their duties as relief
workers, but kept at it till it was pos
sible to get another pair of Shoes"
Or. Phillips said. These women are
really the backbone of the struggle.
No one can say that men could be
striking for months without the sup
porto their wives. I sometimes think
that the women take a greater inter
est in the fight than the men. There
have been huge mass meetings adj
dressed by Cook or Smith where
women were the majority of the
audience. They simply idealize Cook.
In his deep feeling and straightfor-
wardness he expresses the bitterness
of the miners lot with the same re-
sentiment the women feel"
These women knew how to deal
with the few rare cases of scabbing.
A rumor spread that safety men in
colliery loaded several cars of coal.
They were mobbed by the women and
there was no more loading after that.
Cook tells of an incident in Warwick
shire. The mineowners concentrated
their campaign in that county and
succeeded in operating a few collier
les. When Cook came out there and
succeeded in bringing the men out
again he was approached by a miner
who asked him to intercede with his
wife. The miner weakened and went
scsbbing, but his wife chased him out
of his home and he dared not return.
He now begged Cook to reconcile him
with his wife.
I'VE have distributed 500 Of the min
ers' children among the homes of
sympathizers," DR.. Phillips said in ex-
planning some Of the work accom-
plished by the committee. Communal
kitchens have been organized, shoe
repair shops set up, soap, clothing and
shoes provided" she added.
A vivid picture of motherhood in
the coalfelds is painted in one Of the
appeals issued by the committee:
Let any women picture what moth
erhood means in the colliery districts
today. In the wretched little houses
clustered around the silent pithead,
children are being born in homes
which have been stripped of every sal
able luxury. The mothers have been
ill-nourished and living in continuous
anxiety, and face childbirth without
any of the care and comfort which
they need"
Thousands of strike babies have
been born since the struggle began,
the committee spending about 500, 900
on nursing and pregnant women.

Bridger is fast beraking into big
league company as evidenced by the
game played in Hardin Sunday, which
Bridger lost by score of to and
only for an error in the 9th frame
would have brought home the bacon.
The Bridger team had to auto 100
miles to get there and make the return
the same night and get ready for re-
turn game with he Hardin team here
LaJor Day; and speaking of fast
games the one pulled off here Monday
was a hum-dinger. The first half of
the 9Th the score stood l to l but with
some brilliant team work the home
crew added more. which the Hardin
team was unable to overcome in their
first half of the 9th. The battery work
of beth teams was good and one of the
spectacular plays of the entire game
was pulled off by Baumen in the 9th,
when he made fast run back of
second and made one-handed catch
of high fly. Helt for the home team
famed Is men, while Seimore of
Hardin famed men. There was
large crowd present who hooted for
the home team all through the contest.
Ben Boyer handled the indicator and
gave general satisfaction to both
teams, in fact his Judgment was never
criticised by either team during the
game. Crawford of Bridger made
three runs and Baumen one, while L.
F. Watts of Hardin made the only run
Tor his teammates.

to see The atmosphere was perfectly
still at the time and his landing was
made near the corner of 9th and Haul
ser Avenue without accident. A base
ball game followed at the Wye Park
between Bearcreek and Billings. The
teams proved to be unevenly matched
as was proven by the score of 16 to 0
in favor of Billings, but while the los
ing team was unmatched they put up
good game. Beginning at o'clock
in the evening there was a pavement
dance followed by Charleston con-
test after which the big dance opened
at the Labor Temple and continued
far into the night.
Concessionaires did good business
throughout the day and evening. Not
a single accident or untoward event
occurred to mar the pleasures of what
was perhaps the greatest and best
celebration of it's kind ever held in this
city. The committees in charge and
the labor men generally came in for
unqualified commentator for the spir-
it they showed in arranging and carry
ing out the celebration here in such a
successful manner and should they
decide to repeat the celebration next
year they are sure to meet with the
hearty cooperation of the business
and professional men of the city and
people of the country generally.
