Serious Charges

KENOSHA, Wis, March 3O.-The
nineteen leaders of the Full-Fash-

Kenosha, recently charged with con-
tempt of court for violating an in
junction by attorneys for the Allen-A
Hosiery Company, against whom a

Coal Miners,
Send Letters
To " WORKER

by a Worker Correspondent
The Save-the- Union Conference
will begin in Pittsburgh tomorrow.
Delegates sent by the striking
miners from all the coal fields in
the United States will meet there
to take measures for defending
their union and their lives and
their families lives against the
terrorism and corruption which
the Lewis Cappelini machine has
launched upon the United Mine
Workers by means of machine
guns, murder and beatings of pro-
gressives, corruption and starva-
ton.
The struggle of the miners is
being followed breathlessly by
every class-conscious worker in
the United States. There is not
a worker who can ever read a
word too much about the events
in the coal fields. But the news
gathering powers of The DAILY
WORKER cannot penetrate every
where. 1t is the miners themselves
who must write the day to day
events in the struggle to The
DAILY WORKER. 1t is the min
ers who must tell their own stories
in their own words so that the
entire American working class
may know the long history of
their hard strike, of company and
official terrorism and corruption.
Miners in all the coal fields,
write letters to the Worker Cor
respondence page of The DAILY
WORKER. Your paper is eager
to print your letters. Send pic
lures with them if you can.
The American working class is
behind the the Union Con-
ference, it is up to the miners to
bring their story before the Amer
lean workers.

(BS Worker CoTrespo7ade7t-)
PNEY FORK, Ohio, by Mail =
BrDrn the coal fields of eastern ONO
This Is the end of. one year that we
have been on strike and the men
ara still sticking good. We never lost
many men from the union mass
picSxeting that started up all around
Ohio, especially at Dillonville, mine
No. /.
About 800 are on the picket line
every day, including women and chill
dren. The Somers mine at duncan
wood is working with about 30 scaos'
Mass picketing is on there also.
The other day while the scabs were
coming to work on the bus, the women
were on the picket line. Some trouble
stated and the scabs began to beat
up the women. So then the union
men went into it and it was Tree
for all for a while.
The sheriff and deputies were
there. The company thugs were
there and few Ohio national guards
when the trouble started. So the
sheriff and the national guards
started throwing tear gas bombs to
stop the riot.
The same evening there were about
a thousand men, women and children
on the picket line. Then about the
time the scabs were to come out OF
the mines, there appeared the sher-
ifs. deputies and mine guards OF all
kinds. One of Vic. Donahey's men,
20. Caldwell, of the Ohio national
yards was present. He told the men
.nev mad better go home. Ii they
lit. not obey his orders, he said, "he
aid bring in the troops" But the
and women just booed and Kissed
In. So then he left for little
.- in machine and after half an
~ he appeared with five carloads
uniformed men of the Ohio national
guards.
With clubs in their hands and guns
on their hips, they marched up to the
crowd of strikers and made them get
back off the road so that the scabs
could go home on the bus that was
waiting for them.
The national guards arrested nine
or ten men for no reason whatsoever.
The governor of Ohio, Vic Donahey,
said he was going to help the suf-
fering miners and their wives and
children" but the way it looks he
gives them bread with one hand and
a gun with the other
