The $4,000 Glen Alden miners, or.
dgred back to work after a two
weeks strike by the General Criey-
ance Committee, are disillusioned
with the committee and the local
takers, Tomicheck. Maloney and
Davis and others who run it. They
are in fighting mood over the be-
trayal of their strike, and the Rank
and File Opposition groups in the
locals are preparing meetings to fight
the sell-out by the officials. The Ma
tional Miners Union, closely cooper
ating with the rank and file in the
United Mine Workers of America To-
Gals, is ready to hold a series Of mass
meetings.
The n, NJ u calls on the miners
themselves TO organize and take up

being forced to do dead work free
