MINERS IN OHIO
CONTINUE FIGHT
ON WAGE SLASH
National Miners Union Tells
Miners They Must Take
Strike Into Own Hands
UMWA BETRAYERS
United Mine Workers are
Against Miners, Attempt
to Break Strike
UMWA BETRAYERS

Bridgeport, Ohio-The week pas
sed quietly in the Ohio strike field.
One scab was severely wounded at
Provident mine. Three others were
badly bruised the next day when
boulders fell from hillsides on top
of their cars. The third day the
scabs' cars were stopped while the
pickets emptied the scabs dinner
buckets which contained only water
and sent the scabs home.
A stampede to work almost re-
suited from rumors that the Rail
and River mines, near Neffs would
be sealed indefinitely. The work
ers soon realized that this was a
bosses trick to scare them into ac-
cepting the wage cut. 1t influenced
a few. 1t also served as a pretext
for businessmen" to guarantee
protection for any one wanting to
scab. A petition is being circu-
larized among the Rail and River
Co. miners asking the company to
reopen is mines. The miners
charge that the United Mine
Workers TO America, the sub-dis
trict leaders inspired this petition
in order to put the blame for back
to work movement upon the min
ers.
UMWA Officials Strike Breakers
At Blaine local UMWA officials
led $50 back to work. Barton To-
cal UMWA sec-treas. went scab-
bling. The scabs at Blaine are not
mining coal. So much rock has
fallen in the places that loading
the coal is impossible. The bosses
refuse to pay anything for rmov-
ing this rock, so most of the men
that returned to work just sit
round or pack their tools and walk
out again. The wages for loading
at this mine is 81 cents a ton
These miners are saying that they
will come out again if the Nationa
Miners Union calls them.
The river pickets at Powhatal
have been successful against all
efforts of the National guard air
plane to drive them off. The plan
flies so low that the pickets hav
to drop flat in the skiffs to es
cape the landing gear. Gas bomb
fall into the skiffs, the picketi
throw them into the river. Tn
scabs cannot get by the river picl
cts.

NEW TREND NOTED
IN j. S. INVENTIONS
Applications on Certain Types
of Services Have Risen
NoticeabIy.

A new trend In the American In
ventive mind is being noted by Patent
Office officials, it was announced at the
Commerce Department yesterday, fol-
lowing survey Of patent applications
filed during the last year.
They said this fact seemed evident,
as the applications on certain types Of
devices have increased noticeably dur
ing period when total applications are
declining at the rate of u per cent.
In the past year, according to Pat
ent Commissioner Thomas E. Robert
son, there has been an influx Of appli-
cations for patents in connection with
air conditioning refrigeration, oil burn
ers, dewaxing oils for automobile lubri-
cation, alloys, electric clocks, the auto
mobile industry and devices for rem
dering railroad travel more comfortable,
safer and less expensive
Many of the applications, which have
been received in increased volume rep
resent the eng neering talent of already
established companies that wish to i'm
prove theT products. the commissioner
said. At Che same time other applica-
tiOls revealed the ideas. of American
consumers. OF the 20.O06 900 automo-
bile owners IN the United States, for
example, many have ideas for improv-
ing the efficiency or comfort OF this
form of travel, he said
They are stimulated by their own
experience to work out ali sorts Of de-
vices" Commissioner Robertson said.
"These include inventions for opening
and closing the doors of the car by the
driver without leaving his seat. Plans
for various varieties of ree-Wheeling
refinements are coming to the desks of
our patent examiners in notable num-
bers. The same thing applies to pat
entS relating to railroads.
The commissioner pointed out that
at the same time many Of the patent
applications on devices relating to rail-
roads come from experienced technical
railroad men. These include improve
ments for unseen but vital parts Of
rolling stock as well as air conditioning
for cars and signaling systems for dis
patching trains. But also there are
applications sprineing from the brains
Of those whose only railroad experience
has been as passengers, and such ideas
sometimes lead toward lar-reachlng
changes.
