t o some of tie representations
made by US, but to date have
no final statement on the questio
OF the additional appropriation of $35, 900
The opinion of Mr.. BurIew the Assistant
Sec etary of the Interior is that the Bu-
reau Of the Budget will not now include
that amount ins its deficiency bill, and
II his opinion is correct that is final for
this present. If the Bureau of the Budget
does nor recommend the Censress will
not act. Mr.. Burlew haslexperieuce andhe
knows what Congress will do. The Homo
rable the Secretary of the Interior has
has given as his opinion that administra
lively he will not hold, and that is bind
ing, that the Virgin Islands Company is
not subject to tax, and that is final from
the point of view of administrative ac'.
There is the possibility however that
the Virgin islands Company pay that
amount in the Treasury. J have lnforma
ton that bill TO that effect Is now be
fole the Congress. but | nave no infor.
nation as to the form of the oil. With
regard to the question of securi ng funds
for our road program have not yet a
definite statement that the money is
available for expenditure. | have words
from the Governor that the chances are
good that the money will be available.
We know that the estimated amounts
on the revenue side of the budget cannot
be expected. about $27, 900 90 must be
cut down from ths estimates, and know
that that is one of the things the Muulci
pal Committee has been considering and
believe that at the appropriate time the
Committee will take it up and offer sug-
gestions for the consideration of the
(tOnnpn
ever recommendation that is made by the
Committee will be made with a view TO
carry US along as long as possible dur
the fiscal year so that employees on

walkout at their meetings. Sev- eral men said they had been re fused the floor and not allowed to speak. Some particularly pointed charges were hurled at Nygren re.a- tive to reputed statements he had made against capitalism, but t.le union president denied them all
 Danielson was one of those charging that the reason so many of the men dropped out of the Un- ion was that they could not tc heard. He said he had been shout ed down when he attempted to talk and express an opinion at a union meeting.

Sclovieff, Jesse Payne, and several others for the men not in sympathy with the walkout the discussion waxed heated at times and might have drifted into personal channels had net Mayor Goldstein repeatedly warned against.
 Want Settlement
 Heisel explained the position of the men wanting to go back to work He said that group was not opposed to the demands made by the union to the company but that the men wanted settlement now. He charged that the walkout was called without a vote of the men in the mine and was done without the approval of some 500 men. He declared no walkout should have been called until a vote was taken and that the union had voted to delegate authority to it's Board of Trustees was not walkout vote Several others brought out the same point, contending that after the mine officials had turned down the demands, the Union should then have called a general vote of its members to determine if a walkout should be taken.
 It also was charged that the present Union officials have beer running things with a high hane shouting down those opposed tc

 friendly to organized labor" Mir. Connors said For many years carried my card in the electrical union in the east and sat in on the work of our committees in settling difficulties and think l am pretty well acquainted with such problems. But don't see why the city should be made to suffer without anything being done. We are all losing mon- ey, you men who are not working as well as the rest of us. It ap- pears to be a deadlock and some- thing must be done. l can't see for the fife of men what difference a vote as suggested here to determ- inc the sentiment of the mine workers can hurt anything If the union has the majority, it certainly won't hurst the union, but rather will further your case. The fact is that the first question a Federal mediator will ask, who am I to deal with?, When he finds there is a question of who represents the ma- jority he will insist that the ma- jority determine who shall be their representatives This vote will be a means of getting some action. Why not go on record and if you have the majority as you say here you have, then public sentiment will be on your side. You can't lose by this vote, but if you do nothing the city will just continue to suffer-
 Prefacing his remarks, MT. Con- nors said The Alaska Juneau has gold mine here; not factory. They have no commodity that is go- ing to spoil, but gold which will keep right there in the ground. The company is sitting on top of the world, with four aces and is in a much better position to sit idle than you men. That is something that should not be overlooked
 Later Nygren and Heard said they would not be adverse to having a Federal man such as MT. Con- nors" do something toward bringing about a settlement.
 Nygren Explains Stand
 Nygren said the union view was that an election conducted by the city would only breed bad feeling and bring those in a neutral posi- tion into an embarrassing position. Ut will mean a division of the men and that is sure to bring bad feeling on both sides" he said We feel that the only person who can deal with this situation is a Fed eral mediator"
 Nygren said he and Heard had talked to Federal Mediator Post when he went south Monday on the Aleutian after being in Cordova in connection with the fishermen's trouble there and that they were convinced after talking to Post that a Federal mediator was the only answer. Later he said they were wiring last night asking that a mediator be sent here.

 s Ny2ren and Heard denied that the Union was keeping non-union nen from going to work at the nine. They admitted they had pick ss lines but that the piekets were no. stepping non-union men.

 In reply to Nygren's contention hat the picksts zeSe aos stopping lon-union men from going 10 work Jack Finley said he was one of a group Of men who went to the mine one day and were warned by the piekets to stay away. He ar gued that vote certainly could do no harm. and he said he doubted very much If the union had a ma jority of the men on its side.
 After Heard had questioned Heis- et about how loir he mad worked for the company. implying some of tAase opposing the walsoHS had been there but a short time. and Heisel had replied he had oeen in the mill but a month, Y.

Nygren later said Heard had worked as bulldozer in the mine as well as doing other work. Solo vieff continued that he did not see why a small minority group should set up situation where the real miners can't go to work He declared he considered it the right of those who wante,. to work to do so and said he was entirely dissatis- fled with the present setup.
