Mine Convention
Votes to Spread
Hard Coal Strike
Continued from Page u

the way of remedying the conditions
Of the miners. He spoke about the
role of President Roosevelt Chico
dore), how he had given the miner:
peace through arbitration"
The same resolution that was in
troduced in the last convention to al
low coal operators who were willing
to sign 10 with the U.A.MP. be al
lowed to operate, and which Cape
lini supported, was again unanimous
ly rejected, the Resolution Commit
tee having learned that this resolu-
ton was unpopular from their ex-
perience, brought in report to non
concur.
After Maloney had spoken for the
proposal Of Father Curran, mill
tant young miner Tony Ruguski, a
delegate from Local Union No. 50
Lance, asked whether the proposal
Of Father CurTan meant calling
off the strike, Maloney answered that
it did not. This same delegate pro-
posed that the miners march on the
County Court House from all the COL
lieries, to smash the injunction, and
asked whether the officials would
sanction such a demonstration, to
which Maloney answered no. Every
one at the convention was anxious to
hear what the ace was that Maloney
had up his sleeve, and he told the
delegates that it was Father Cur
rams proposal.
Convention in Dist.
Maloney read a letter from miner
in District 9 asking for the strike to
be spread into that district. He said
that a special delivery letter had been
sent to District 8, asking them to call
a convention for Sunday, Jan. 81. He
stated that he would take the same
proposal that had been adopted to-
day to the convention there and try
and have them adopt 1t in that dis
trict.
Father Curran's appeal to the min
ers was based on the fairness" Of
President Roosevelt, Of course this is
the same appeal, that has been made
before, and as the President is re-
sponsible for the present National
Labor Board, the miners can rest as
sured that this maneuver on the part
of Father Curran has but one thing
for its purpose, to have commission
appointed, and then call off the
strike. The miners will have to be
on their guard against a betrayal in
the form Of a flair" commission, or
any commission that is set UP by
the bosses and all others who desire
arbitration and peace at any price.

ployment agencies shake their
heads when the case of Belle
is mentioned. The emotional
mental disintegration OF the mem-
ployed girl Is the outstanding prob
lem OF many psychiatrists today.
Belle Jones story is the biography
OF what has become known as the
Repression Neurosis."
pELLE was an able tennis player,
~ swimmer and a good shot at
basketball. While she was working
she INDUCED in these sports quite
frequently. She was member of her
neighoorhood community center, a
typical American girl" But her
plight was Swallowed with the in
evitable loss OF her job and the be-
ginning OF a sense of futality. She
began to worry, about this, that and
the things one generally worries
about when one loses his job. Belle
stopped attending the community
center. OF course, she wanted very
much to continue her activities but
she was compelled to leave because
OF non-pay1nent Of dues.
NOW there were no jobs. Not even
~ made" jobs. Private charity
which at best provides a makeshift
for the Job that society owed her,
had dried up. There was no unem-
ployment insurance. Belle was not
eligible for home relief because she
was alone in the world. When frus-
tration became q pattern and routine
Tor Belle The shock Of her dilemma
came upon her. Belle considered her
self failure. Her chief diversion
was taken from her. She was no
longer able to engage in that much
loved tennis game That basketball
thrill was no longer hers.
She began to sit at home in leth-
argy, in sort Of paralysis. This is
the lethargy from which one time
active Sportsmen easily slip into men
tai incompetence. The entire I'M
employment situation has this effect
on people. Anxiety, neurosis, Starva-
ton, inactivity" is an easy diagnosis
to make when these depression vic
TINS turn up in the mental hygiene
clinic at Bellevue Hospital. But, its
not so easy to cure.
The fate that overlook Belle was,
needless to say, unfortunate but not
altogether unavoidable. Belle could
have continued her sport activities
in any one Of y number Of wOneen's
sections OF the Labor sports organ
iEatioRS. No worker should become
respondent Unemployment IL the
cue to fight against conditions with
a healthy and relentless vigOr.

sibly diminished it; the codes have
established starvation wage levels,
turning over the whole of industrial
control to big capital, while trustifi-
cation Of industry and finance has
gone apace. AS TO the farmers, their
bankruptcy is proceeding faster than
ever before, while the growing fascist
tendencies Of the Roosevelt regime
become clearer every day. Roose-
velt's new military budget is striking
evidence Of the war character of the
whole MIRA, program"
THE most significant and con-
structive feature in the whole situa-
tion," continued Foster, "is the
growth OF the Communist Party and
the T.U.UL. amid the growing fight
ing spirit Of the workers and poorer
farmers, which is manifested in the
unprecedented wave of strikes in the
factories and on the farms, despite
the A. F. of L. and S. P. strike
breaking policy of trying to force the
workers under the miserable slave
codes"
ct is clear said Foster in con-
clus.on, "that, instead Of being
solved the industrial and agrarian
crisis will be sh&rpened by the very
measures taken by the Roosevelt
government and the international
situation will be brought to great
er chaos. The U. S. is going for
ward into period Of the greatest
intensification Of the class struggle
in its entire history, with the fight
ing masses Of workers and impover-
ished farmers turning in increasing
numbers to the Communist Party
and the revolutionary unions for
leadership"

greatly reduced salary. Those base
ball magnateS certainly know how to
effect retrenchments in salary and
through their Underhanded slaShing
tactics they not only succeeded In
reducing the Babes wage but at the
same time paved the way for further
retrencfments in their 1884 payrolls.
With this obvious psychological
angle which colonel Rupert con-
SiderS as a great move on his part
it is 3 fact that there will be few
il any holdouts this year, and that
salaries have been out mercilessly.
A SURVEY Of the Associated
n Press disclOses that at least
eight Of the sixteen American and
National League clubs plan a gen.
eral reduction of player salaries. 1t
is estimated on the whole that the
big league payrOlls have been
trimmed over 40 per cent in the
past year. The top salaried brackets
include no more than nine players.
The rest are being signed at the
lowest wage scals In Baseball his
tory.
ALL this brings 10 our mind q very
n interesting haShback Of what
Max Baer's managers are doing. Max
Baer, the romping romeo Of the box
ing profession is now doing four-a-
day at Loew's Metropolitan and two
a night at the Cafe de Paree. Baers
managers must be scanning with
voraciouS eyes the weekly receipts
but, as is sometimes the case with
financiers who are at the head of In
dustry, they can't see further than
their nose. All they are interested
in at present is capitalizing on Baers
laurelS. They are speeding him up
with untold pressure. He must make
money for them and 50 they get him
as many contracts as ne can man
age to take care Of in twenty-fouY
hours Of the day. But in their greedy
manner they are sending a tighter to
his doom. Everyone knows that Baer
cannot continue as he is and still
remain the hardened slugger he is
reputed to be. Speed-up does no one
any good. Even Casanova had to
admit that in the end.
