President John H. Walker Of the Ilh-
nois Miners Union moved today to
stem the spreading dual movement"
within his organization as striking
miners extended picketing activities.
He issued a statement charging nom
union coal interests and anti-union
forces seeking to force down the wages
of Illinois diggers to the level of COM
peting fields were backing the strike
protest against the reduced IS wage
contract.
Strikers we're successful today in
shutting down the Shuler mine at
Alpha, in Northwestern Illinois. A
section of the army of occupation which
evacuated Taylorville yesterday, how
ever, met with reversal at West Frank
fort, in Southern Illinois, when it tried
to stop operations there.
Walk Through Pickets.
A hundred diggers at a Peabody Coal
Co. mine there grimly pushed through
a Gordon of pickets and went down the
shafts, though many en- route to the
tipples in autos were stranded with
punctured tires.
About 400 miners, who came to Tay-
lorville in the invasion that ended after
laying idle four Peabody mines, were
reported to have remained for picket
duty. RumorS that the company plan
ned to reopen one mine under armed
guards Monday morning, despite the
pickets, were not confirmed.
The army of occupation, numbering
about 10000 diggerS, departed from
Christian County for destinations un-
known. Leaders ordered the miners
home, but some had planned to move
on downstate tipples. Nowhere, how
ever, was any massed movement de-
tected.
Calls Movement Fiasco.
Walker, who was scheduled to ad-
dress mass meeting on behalf Of the
SIS scale at Peru, Ill, tomorrow, in his
statement called the strike movement
"a fiasco" and dual to the United Mine
Workers of America" and asserted most
of its leaders had been repudiated as
candidates for Office in past union
elections.
The district president observed that
while Illinois diggers are seeking to
abrogate a SIS wage contract. represent
ing much more in buying power than
their old scale of S6.10, miners of Ken
lucky are working 10 and IL hours
day for $1.50.
