UMWA Demands That Captive
Mines Grant Closed Shop:
Gary Operations Alone Working

After several appeals coz thc
part of President Rpus"N
been ignored by John | ,,ls
and the US. government had
threatened to send troops into
the coalfields in event of trouble,
members of the United Mine
Workers began TO picket those
captive mines in Mcdowell and
other West Virginia counties "a
well as in Pennsylvania.
Operations ceased promptly
at all mines except those in
Gary hollow. Numerous fights
and several shootings and other
disorders brought prompt and
vigorous action by Governor
Necly-some 200 state troopers
suddenly appeared on the scene
and took charge. Disorders al
most instantly ceased.
On Wednesday it as-announc
ed that. all Gary Hollow opera
tions were going almost 100
per cent.
Thus the stage was set for
important developments that
may within a few days occur.
The feeling persists that Con
gress will next week act with a
| heavy hand and restrict the
/ activities Of unions considerably
Outlawing Of the sympathy
Estrike" is expected TO be a

MANY PITKETS !.....r,.
IN GARY NINE TROUBLE

On-thc-spot observers report
that earlier this week Il large
number of the pickctS trying to
halt operations at Gary's captive
mines carried pistols, knives,
and other deadly weapons. The
fact that two men have been
shot already and numerous in
stances of firing of guns noted is
evidence that the report is true.
Character of some of the
attacks is indicated by reports
that the pickcts hid inl the bush
cs and fired on men walking to
work.
Some Of the pickets are be-
licvcd TO be from Harlan county,
Kentucky.
Result - 200 Heavily armed
state Policemen appeared ON
he scene and will remain az long
rs any possibility Of violence is
present. Taking pot shots at
miners and the same
hing in case Of q tough State
Policeman are widely different
matters. ~ T.,

and Dryden; Lloyd, Dryden, and
Blaine; Lloyd and Blaine.
Francis ]. Lloyd, the retiring part
ner, under the terms of the dissolu-
ton and son of the leader, C. C. Lloyd
started his drug career in 1883 as a
student in pharmacy in the old
school of Maryland Pharmacy, in
Baltimore; went in as a partner in
1891; and, upon the death of his faith
er in 1908, purchased a half interest
in the business. This continued until
the death of Mr.. E. I. Blaine and af-
forwards, with Mr.. Blaine's widow.
Computing the combined time that
C. c. Lloyd and his son, F. J. Lloyd
were with the firm, the two have seen
over 100 years of service in the drug
line. Their names have been syno-
nyms of faithful and honorable deal
ing and of high grade of pharma-
ceutical work. For this reason, the
name of Lloyd and Blaine will be a
real asset to the new owner.
Miss Cynthia P. Blaine, the new
purchaser, is a daughter of the late
E. Blaine, who did yeoman's part
in upholding the stability of the bust
ness. No man stood higher in this
community than he who gave the
Blaine name to the combination. His
name and memory will be preserved
by the retention of the firm title
Lloyd and Blaine.
For the present, at least, the
same force will be retained except
Mr.. Lloyd, who retires after more
than a half-century of service. His
many friends will regret to see his
retirement from the business life of
Pocomoke.
