AFL Mine WORKERS
OPPOSE LEWIS
REHABILITATION

Springfield, III. (ILNS).-The exec
utive board of the Progressive Mine
Workers of America has formally
asked the American Federation of La
Dor executive council to reject John
L. Lewis application for re affiliation
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea with the AFL.
Declaring readmission of the United
Mine Workers would be constitution
ally impossible" as long the Progress
sive Mine Workers hold an AFL
charter as the only AFL international
mine union, officials of the PMWA
said they were confident the AFL
executive council "would not stoop to
shoddy trickery to void the PMWA
charter"
The letter addressed to the execu-
tive council in Washington, was
signed by PMWA President Lloyd A.
Thrush, Vic e-P r e d e n t William
Crompton Secretary Treasurer
John Marchiando.
The AFL council is scheduled to
consider the Lewis petition at it's next
meeting in August.
Asserting that the 1888 AFL char
ter held by the PMWA guarantees its
jurisdiction and identity as the only
AFL mining union, the letter con-
tinued:
"We cannot believe that the AFL
executive council would now shame
lessly disregard principle and permit
the entry into it's fold of the high
priest of dictatorial unionism, even
though the organization he (Mr.
Lewis purports to represent has
much greater numerical and financial
strength than the PMWA.

Department has revoked the second
class mailing rights of six publica-
tions and barred Is issues of eight
publications from the mails for viola
tion of the Espionage Act.
1t has been the Unions policy not to
intervene where the indictments show
a "clear and present danger" or
where a connection with enemy agents
is established, except where the
fundamentals of due process are in
volved."
The relatively small number of sedi-
tion cases, the report holds, is appar-
emily due to the slight opposition to
the war, the general absence of hys-
terra, and the intelligent application
by the Department of Justice of the
clear and present danger test laid
down by the Supreme Court in the last
war.

FEWER SEDITION
CASES REPORTED
THAN In FIRST
WORLD WAR

New York City (ILNS)-In a re-
port on wartime prosecutions for al
legedly subversive speech and publ
cation, the American Civil Liberties
Union notes fewer sedition cases in
World War ii.
''There were only As federal cases

port says, "as against total of al
most 1000 such cases in the first
World War / corresponding period" "
About 125 convicted persons are in
prison, and a few more are in jail
awaiting trial. The largest group are
members of obscure religious sects,
convicted for conspiracy to obstruct
the Selective Service Act; the next
largest are members of the German
American Bund.
The government has invoked the
Espionage Act in % cases involving
95 persons; 80 persons have been con-
victed, Is released, and so are on trial
or awaiting it. Three cases, in which
prosecutions were opped, were
brought under the peace-time sedition
act.

laws. Up to the present the Post Office
