MINE HEAD BLAMES OPERATORS
FOR DISTRESS OF STRIKERS
Admits Children Are Starving Under
"Damnable" Conditions-Sees Calamity
Unless Winter Is Provided for.

In the stencil Of burning dumps Is alb
sent, and there Is not much sickness
Moundsville merchants welcome the
miners trade. because United States
currency Is used and they extend nor
nal credit. The company advances q
few dollar bills when they are vitality
needed, and the miners see that the
amount Is made good.
At another mine near Moundsville
the men have their company store and
their patch" Of wooden homes. They
went on strike and their children are
as hungry and as sickly as those IN
the majority OF other places In the
mining district
In general physicians In the soft coal
area, even company doctors. admit
that boys and girls who come from
healthy stock, much Of 1t native
American. are going to die long before
they should unless malnutrition Is sefi-
ously combated.
The miner has become frankly mill
tant, and the children are being reared
In an atmosphere Of terror, with con-
slant clashes between strikers and
these flights passively.
- Character Impaired.
In the hearts of the children Is
fear Of the law OF the companies for
which they may eventually work, and
they are physically and mentally col
orless, without any Of the joys of
childhood. It has never occurred to them
to look forward to anything, and be-
cause of lack Of food they have no
stamina.
The atmosphere Is illustrated by q
remark by an oflcer of the State
troopers.
You'll be all right In that straw
hat and the suit you are wearing"
he said. But put on q miners cap
and you'll probably be socked."
How about the children sergeant"
