Most Of Your Friends
Dead d'--Gau|ey Bridge
A Year After Tragedy
By PHILIPPA ALLEN
Federated Press

| GAULEY BRIDGE, W. Va.-(FP)
-"Most of your friends have died
since you were here last"
This was the doleful greeting re-
ceived in mid-June when l returned
to visit victims of the silicosis trag-
edy Investigated last year by Con-
gressional committee.
But more tragic than an early
death which lies in wait for them
was the tale they told of the hard
ships of their immediate existence.
Stark hunger now stalks these scores
of cast-off workmen stranded within
sight of the gigantic power project
which doomed them to death and
which brings increased profits to the
stockholders of the Union Carbide &
Carbon Co.
Charley Jones, whose three husky
sons died within a period of IS
months, has himself fallen off 20
more pounds and can hardly walk
up and down the steps of his front
porch. He breathes with great diff
ficulty
George Robinson died two months
after testifying before the Congress
sional committee. Cleve Montgom-
cry and Robert Kirkland are almost
unrecognizable in their bony thin
ness. Man after man told us of his
friends whom death already had
overtaken and an even darker story
of his own immediate struggle to
stave off starvation.
Only a year ago a Congressional
investigation laid bare the story of
the industrial tragedy of which these
men are the innocent victims. They
were once robust, hard-muscled men,
many of them natives of Gauley
Bridge, but the majority recruited
from states up and down the Atlantic
seaboard. Some 1000 workmen, who
because they drilled 334-mile tun-
mel through pure silicate rock with
out safety appliances, are now
coughing away their lives in the
slow death of silicosis. Fine, sharp
particles of silica dust, imbedded in
the lungs, scarify the tissue, reduc-
ing the oxygen-absorbing area and
booming the men to painful suffoca-
ton.
The project was undertaken by the
Rinehart & Dennis Co., construction
engineers, for the New Kanawha
Power Co. Because of unemploy-
ment elsewhere, men flocked to the
project attracted by the 40c hourly
wage, which was gradually reduced
to zoe as labor became plentiful. The
men were forced to work without
masks in the dust-laden atmosphere
of the poorly-ventilated tunnel State
laws requiring wet-drilling and
proper ventilation were not complied |
with. Soon the men began dying
by scores. Doctors diagnosed the
disease as 'tunnelitis." The death |
rate was SO great that the firm con-
tracted with an undertaken to buy
the victims at $55 head. Several
hundred were buried in field which
was later planted in corn.
Upon completion of the tunnel, the
contractors attempted to disperse the
of silicosis-infected work
ers by tearing down and burning the
company shacks in which they dwelt.
More recently, many victims resid
ing in the village of Vanetta, char
acterized in an FERA report as "the
village of the living dead" were
evicted to make room for employees

the brief themes. In the opening of
the first movement it is at times some
what reminiscent Of the childish duet,
Chop Sticks" and in the second
movement, "Iarghetto," the lovely
theme is tossed back and forth from
one piano to the other and the orches-
ira. Following this number the pian-
lists returned, after numerous recalls,
and played "Chorale," of j. S. Bach,
for two pianos, arranged by Mary
Howe of Washington, and were obliged
to play second encore.
The orchestra completed the long
program with lie Repos de la Sainte
Famille," from Berlioz' "LEnfance du
Christ" and Liszt's famous 'Mefisto'
waltz.
The size of the audience yesterday,
in spite of the bad weather, and the
enthusiasm expressed is encouraging
that the drive for a sustaining fund
for the National Symphony Orches-
ira. which now is under way, will be
more than successful. The goal OF the
Symphony Association is high, but
the work of the orchestra and the
place 1t has made for itself in the
National Capital warrants its success.
In the very few years-this is the
sixth season-the organization has
grown to a worthwhile orchestra, play
ing the best music with good tone, ex-
cellent ensemble and authentic in
terpretations. And this DR.. Kinder
has accomplished with the help OF
music lovers in Washington-K. B.

and Win the orchestra standing re-
ceived much applause and not few
cheers. The orchestra played we'll and
in this number there was tremendous
volume, the composition being par
ticularly rich in orchestration.
The soloists yesterday were Ethel
Bartlett and Rae Robertson, duo
pianist who in their former appear
ances here have made many friends
through their excellent playing to-
gether They chose two concertos
yesterday for two pianos and orches-
ira, both listed on the program as
first time in Washington" The
phrase is dangerous except with new
compositions. The first concerto was
that in E fiat, by c. P. E. Bach, in
which the pianiStS had ample oppor-
tunity to show their brilliant tech
nique. Mr.. Robertson played with
much more precision than Miss Bart
lett, although there was much more
color and warmth in her tone. There
was lacking in their performance yes
terday the perfection of ensemble
which so distinguished their playing
before. In fact there were phrases
that were ragged, Miss Bartlett being
careless in striking chords with both
hands simultaneously.
The Concerto in D Minor" written
by the French modernist, Francis
Poulenc, was without doubt played in
Washington for the first time yester-
day, and from its reception it probably
will not be the last. The composition
itself is delightful in it's humor, and

enough to be museum pieces. The
presence of the newspaper man or
newspaper men, is neatly concealed
by the title sometimes. Love on the
Run was case in point. You would
have thought it was about love, but
once you got into the same theater
with the picture you found it full uf
reporters and heiresses, as well as
sentimentality and comedy.
There was even a picture called
Woman Wise" which had to do
with the dumbness of a newspaper
man in love.
The one coming next to the Capitol

it happened but few years ago.
According to United Artists, releas-
ing the picture which opens at Keith's

period was a great deal simpler than
getting one for a modern musical
show. Some one just went to the
museum files and dug out ballad
