WEST VIRGINIA
MINES
Continue to Pay Wage Near
Starvation Level

By international Labor News Service.
Indianapolis, Ind. -" Good wages .
promised the non-union coal miners OF
West Virginia are not materializing
according to reports reaching the
United Mine Workers headquarters
here Some of the quick-promising
non-union companies are now paying
their men only 30 cents a ton for
coal loading, and $3.50 day for day
men. This is more than a so per cent
cut in wages as compared to the
present union scale.
Reports show that the mines in
West Virginia are operating only two
or three days a week, and at the
wages paid the men are on the verge
of starvation.
The union is seriously handicapped
in that state because of court injunc-
tions, lawsuits, evictions and armed
guards. 1t is prevented from exer-
cising its constitutional privilege of
organizing it's workers through vari-
Gus court processes, although the
great majority of workers express the
wish to unite with the union.

"In 1915 the wage rate had in
creased to 106 and the cost of living

MINERS HEAD
Urges Unions to Act
Against Communist
Members

BY international Labor News Service
Chicago.-Frank harrington, presi-
dent of the United Mine Workers OF
Illinois, has issued circular letter
to all local unions of his organization
in this state, advising them that they
should carry out a recent order of the
international executive board in ref
erence to expulsion of communists.
Action is to be taken under laws
which provide for disciplinary meas.
ures against members for affiliatior
with dual organizations.
"The time is here when the integ-
rity of the United Mine Workers OF
America requires that it shall be
purged of those who defame the good
name of it's officers and who are con-
stantly trying to discredit its policies,
and it is earnestly hoped that all loyal
members will be guided accordingly .
says harrington.
The order is particularly aimed at
the workers (communist) party of
America and its official organ, the
Daily Worker, published in Chicago.
Of this publication harrington has
the following to say:
"The Daily Worker reeks with vile,
vicious and slanderous attacks against
the officers of the United Mine Work
ers of America, and therefore those
who are responsible for it's distribu-
tion among our membership are guilty
of violation of Section 3, Article 20,
international constitution, and they
too, should be given trial as pro-
vided by Section 2, Article Is, inter
national constitution, and the penalty
provided for in Section 3, Article 20,
should be applied"

BILLION DOLLARS
For Good Roads This Year,
Bureau Predicts

By international Labor News Service
Washington, ID. C-This year will
be the third successive one to see a
billion-dollar road building program
The United States bureau of public
roads has compiled information on the
probable expenditures of states anj
local governments for the construc-
tion and maintenance of highways
The bureau also has actual expendi-
lures for previous years.
The amount available this year is
81 ,030 100000, compared with 1,003,-
100000 last year The 1924 expendi-
lures were $1,242, 100000. The pro
gram of 1923 cost $997 100000
State highway departments alone
expect to build or improve about 30,-
600 miles of rural roads this year.
County authorities also will under
take some new construction, but the
bulk of their expenditures, which are
about half of the total, will be fol
maintenance rather than building
This years work should mean i
continued demand for such materials
as stone, cement and brick 1t will
also increase the number of jobs
which are open to unskilled labor and
thereby raise or maintain the pres
ent wage level for that class of labor
