desperate hope to prevent use Of
Army troops to reopen struck
mines.
While Congress clamored for
drastic action, the Labor Board
called before It John L. Lewis.
president of the United Mine Work
ers. the heads of % union locals
conducting the outlaw strike, and
representative OF five major coal
companies whose mines have been
closed.
Lewis. deeply troubled. carried
with him reports SLOWING that only
$500 of the 10000 miners in the
anthracite fields were on strike
This was in contrast to unofficial
estimates by the Labor Board that
$4,000 were idle.
IL was learned that Lewis, as
long ago as Jan. 4, appealed to the
hard coal miners not 10 strike in
their demands for a s2-a-day wage
increase. At that time, Lewis
sent letters TO be posted in all
union halls in the hard coal fields
calling for settlement OF the min
ers' wage demands in AN orderly
manner.....so that victory can be
had, not only on the battlefronts
OF the world, but on the production
front OF our mines and factories
Sources close to Lewis denied
that the miners were striking in
protest over an increase in union
dues which amounts to only about
80 IL cents a month. They said
that the miners striking were us
ing the protest as cause for the
strike so that they could not be
accused OF violating the union con-
tract by walking out for wage
boosts while a contract was in eff
feet.
