The New Union.
John Walker, you're an operators
man as much as Fishwick, Far
rington, Lewis, Murray or the rest
of them. Your program is an
operators program. Your squealing
won't fool the miners. Your appeal
for constitutional rights and fair
play is huge joke. You're getting
dose of your own medicine.
Whether Lewis or you or some
henchman of Lewis becomes Pres
ident of the U. NJ. w. u, it is
doomed. Nothing can save it. The
New Miners Union has come to stay.

in the old Federal building, Sixth

1t was also announced that the
office has available $400 with which
to make the survey. The action is
not being taken Immediately, it was
stated, because other similar sur
veys have precedence.

$4,000, is to have the inlet reopen

the work to the Lukens Dredging

Efforts are being made to have
the government appropriate suffi-

dredging each year and construc-
ton of jetties which will prevent
the inlet from ever again being
closed by nature.
