NINE MINERS
DIE IN PLUNGE
DOWN SHAFT
Cage Breaks Loose,
Shoots 900 Feet
To Bottom

MULLAN, Idaho, Oct. 6.
(UP) - Nine miners plum
meted to their deaths at the
Morning mine today when
a cage broke loose from its
cable and fell 900 feet to the
bottom of the shaft.
The men were being loaded in
to the cage at the 5000 foot level
to be brought to the surface at
the end of their shift. The cage
was raised to put nine additional
men in it when the cable broke
and the men fell to their deaths.
Two of the nine men killed were
tentatively identified as Louis
Golf of Spokane and a man known
as Donaldson.
Although the accident occurred
at midnight, reacuers were unable
to reach the men before o'clock
this morning. RescuerS said the
bodies were so badly mangled
they could not be identified readi-
ly.

the Federal Mining and Smelling
Co., with offices in Wallace, Ida.

al by local and international
unions which have local chapters
here.
Some OF the union groups can
act Immediately while others must
seek the approval of their inter-
national organizations or the
state federation of labor to join
the general strike movement.
When the workers met last night
il was reported they intended to
vote on the issue of a general
strike, but it was pointed out the
union representatives lacked au-
thority to vote for such a walkout
The resolution approving sub
mission of the general strike pro-
posal to various union headquar-
ters was adopted by vote Of l39
to 13.
A general strike long has been
talked about in Salinas. Discus
sion of such a move gained impe-
tus within the last week through
widespread arrests of strikers and
enactment by the Monterey coun-
ty board of supervisors and the
Salinas city council last night of
anti-picketing ordinances.
Refusal of the employers to
consider a union peace offer also
added to obstacles to settlement
of the month-long lettuce strike
which has resulted in sporadic RI
oting and bloodshed.
In voting the nti-picketing
rule, the city council closed the
municipality to strike picketS, who
have been patrolling growers
shippers association shipping sheds

ing and loading in defiance of
striking members of the fruit and

EXPERT Will
TALK ON FIRE
PREvENTI0
Sterling Livingston
To Visit Schools,
Service Clubs

Sterling Livingston, Los
Angeles fire prevention ex-
pert, will speak at the
schools and service clubs in
Ell Centre this week in con-
nection with the annual observ-
ance of national fire prevention
week.
He arrived in Ell Centro Tues
day at the request of Frank Sco-
vel, state fire marshal, who prom
Used Fire Chief Tom Reams to
provide a speaker for the week.
School and service club pro-
grams will give Livingston an op-
portunity to explain the necessity
of eliminating fire hazards and
the need for cleaning up the city.
Livingston joined Fire Commits
sioner Harry Sones and Chief
Reams in their plan to arouse
residents interest in keeping the
town free from disastrous fires.
Another important factor in fire
prevention education, Livingston
declared, is criminal investigation
of arson and the prosecution of
those believed to be guilty of
starting fires.
One factor that has given i'm
petllS to the Investigations and
prosecution of persons responsible
for incendiary fires is the Model
Arson Law which is now in effect
in thirty-siX states. At common
law arson was defined as the will
full and malicious burning of the
habitation of another. Under the
model law arson is considered a
crime against the community, as
rights and property interests of
we'll as against the habitation
individuals. Severe penalties are
prescribed for the burning of any
building. Burning to defraud and
attempts to commit arson are al
so covered by the Act. Most of
the states that do not have the
model law have statutes in SUBJ
stantisl harmony with the provi-
SionS of it.
City trucks will collect all the
trash and refuse accumulationS
piled in the alleys by the residents.
The trucks will start collecting af-
ter the close of cleanup week and
officials hope to clean up all ac-
cumulations as they go and not
be forced to send the trucks back
to pick up belated deposits.
