| not i've long In the union. With THIS
threat, reactionary officials, cloaked
with the authority of the Federal
Government, are attempting to put
an end to the strike for union recog-
milton.
Michael Garcher, 80, one Of the
striking miners, was shot to death
yesterday by Lewis Clausner, a
lackey of the Prick Coal Co. Garcher
I was on strike at the Standard Shaft
Mine. A group Of strikers went to
the home of Clausnner and booed
him and called him scap.
e"Get out OF here or I'll NOV you
down." shouted Clausmer as he i'm
mediately emptied his revolver at
strikers. Garcher fell dead. Com
pany-controlled Coroner, DIR. Albert
McMurray, is now attempting to JUS
tify the murder of the striker and
clear the murderer.
According to Murray there will be
wholesale explosions of miners if they
do not carry out this strike breaking
ldecision. s-ee
Almost at the same time when the
conference of striking representatives
started, and as a direct challenge to
the command to return to work, 1900
longshoremen, working along the Al
leghany, Ohio and Monongah Ella nv
ers, announced a walk-out in sympa-
thy with the coal miners strike. This
decision was reached by the members
of Local No. 942, International Long
shoremen's Union, according to
statement by Leo j. Ford, secretary
of the union. This strike affects all
shipments of coal along the three
rivers where the coal strike is on.
Recovery Administrator Hugh s.
johnson implored the over 100000
strikers to return to work without
recognition of the union. He said,
that this decision was reached after
meeting with q. NJ W. A. officials
and has "the authority of the Presi-
dent"
Steel executives who control the
mines which are on strike refused to
yield under any circumstances to
union recognition. They consider that
this would give tremendous impetus
toward organization of the steel in
dustry, which has remained the bull
wark of the open shop.
Strike action is surging through all
steel centers around Pittsburgh, with
a strike Of over 1900 In Central Tube,
Ambridge, Pa, beginning today, If all
demands presented by a committee OF
five to the bosses are not granted. A
flare-up in many steel PLAINS in this
highly concentrated center Is GER
tain. The main demands are Recog-
milton of the union; eight-hour day
with 10-hour pay; increase pay to
reach rising cost of living. The boss
es said they were ready to consider
all demands except union recogni-
ton.
On Tuesday the first picket line at
Central Tube is expected to be over
1000 strong, including workers from
other mills. They will picket until
working time and then go to their
mills to prepare strike action to pull
out H. H. Robinson, Seamless Tube,
National Electric, J. & l.. and series
Of other mills.
With the Coal Code In effect, and
the opening of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor Convention, which was
the occasion for lauding the strike
breaking MIRA, 100000 miners have
flayed every strike breaking attempt
of the operators, government and
union officials and are holding their
ranks solid. -,
