In some instances, team captains
urged workers to make calls on Sum-

erosity, of the willingness among
the people to share their new pros
perity with those who are not so
fortunate" said John A. Reilly,
Metropolitan Unit chairman.
The whole fate of our campaign,
In my opinion, rests upon coverage
upon our volunteer forces who are
sacrificing time and effort in order
to find and reach the greatest num-
Der of possible givers."
Chest Director Herbert L. Willett,

keep pace with the prOpOrtiOnate
number of report days scheduled, at
least third of the persons assigned

Asked il the endorsement Of the
miners in their battle with the
steel companies does not conflict
with the Go demand for about

long explanation which en- d d
with:
"Of course IL does"
NINE SHUTDOWN BLAME
Not once did he mention the
word strike" in connection with
the coal mine trouble. His ex-
PLANTATION of the decision to quit
work was that miners do not
work without a contract"
Blame for the shutdown. he
said, rests with the steel COM
panies which own the mines anc
he mentioned specifically Eugene
G. Grace. president of Bethlehem
Steel.
Murray last week resigned from
the National Defense Mediation
Board after il had ruled against
the United Mine Workers.
II want the people Of the
country 90 know that the UNIV
made the most constructive
proposal that has been made
by any segment Of the national
population" the Go president
stated. THAT proposal was TO
promise non-interrupted produc-
tlon OF coal until March Of 194S
In return for a closed shop.
CALLS OFFER LIBERAL
"The UNIV would have
Loo, 900 men Mt work every day
without fear of strikes. It was
the most liberal contribution
yet offered by any group In the
defense work.
Eugene q. Grace created the
situation existing today. He and
a few other chronic opportunities
opposed what the balance Of the
industry accepted closed shop
under conditions which increase
production and profits.
To-day 95 per cent Of the
miners are union members.
Labor cannot understand why
munition makers and manufac-
turers should be allowed to
maintain a privileged position In
the coal industry. -
CLASH WITH GRACE
"My resignation from the de-
Tense mediation board was not
n clash with the government. 1t
was q clash between Grace and
myself"
Murray was asked about the
possibility that President Roose-
welt might use troops TO keep the
mines open, and he commented:
THE Go Is bound to object
to the use of the army to shatter
labor. Even I'm Britain, despite
the terrifying conditions under
which people live, labor Is en-
! joying the right TO fight to OBJ
tain its legitimate detectives"
He cited figures showing that
6.982, 900 man-hours were lost be-
cause Of strikes in Britain during
the first nine months of 1941, an
increase of Is per cent over the
same period of 1910.
BRITISH STRIKES
He said the hours lost due to
strikes in British coal mines in
creased IS per cent during Sep
TENDER, as compared with the
same month last year.
Murray refused to comment on
report that he had told the Go
executive committee about peace
offer that was turned down by

However, board members re-
vealed that he told them Roosevelt

Hillman and Lewis are now each

posed a resolution demanding Hill
mans removal from his OPM job
because of discrimination against

attacked the OPM official because
the famed Currier Lumber Com
pany contract has been blocked,
and because he has asked labor
