Then. on November IA, the
strike was called off and we were
to dig coal until November 80.
Every miner prayed that now they
could remain at work and recoup
some of their heavy losses, but on
the night of the 30th the orders
came through to 60 on the three
day work week.
BY this time all miners knew
that wage increases had not even
been discussed between Lewis and
the operators. A majority of the
miners realized that all of the
days lost up to this time were
due to the stalemate of the op-
orators. who wanted a contract
that was an honest contract, and
Lewis, who wanted a contract that
was not a contract, since his
willing and able" clause permit
ted him to call the men off the
job at any time he wanted it with
out legally breaking his word.

Britain 10 Enforce Exile
OF Serefse and White Wife
By the AssocioIed Press

LONDON, July 81. - African
Chieftain Seretse Khama has been
told by Britain to get out of his
tribal territory with his white
wife, Ruth, and their baby daugh-
ter. The order. disclosed yester-
day in a communique issued by
the commonwealth relations Office,
is to take effect "at an early date" :"
It was Seretse's marriage to
Ruth Williams. a typist, when he
was studying law IN England two
years ago that split his tribe in
British administered Bechuana-
land.
Britain decided last winter to
ban Seretse from his tribes reser-
vation for five years, but allowed
him to return last spring so he
could be with his wife when their
first child was born.
The communique said that there
now was no reason for further
delaying his exile.
, The order did not say where
Seretse could live in exile, but
there were reports he might come
to London.
Evening star., 1950-07-31

work week and the one PROPOSE
ton that caused most of the grief
to begin with. .
Negotiations Stymied.
John L. Lewis stymied all ne
gotiations for months with the
untenable willing and able"
clause. due to the fact that with
this clause in the contract he be-
came dictator of the amount of
time a miner would work, the
amount of coal that would be
mined and whether the miner
worked at all or not.
This demand of Lewis cost the
diggers of the United States
scores of millions of dollars. And
it is doubtful if there were any
miners in the entire country who
agreed with the willing and able
clause, which gave Lewis complete
domination of all miners and
operators affiliated with the
UMWA.
The miners who suffered dis
astrous loss of income did not
want this clause in the new con-
tract. Only Lewis who got his SAL
ary and had personal security
during the strike wanted it. One
thing is certain-these dictator
producing words willing and
able" were the stumbling block
in all negotiations from June /,
1949. to February 1, 1850, between
the mine operators and Lewis.
July 8, 1949, was the. ominous
day for miners in Illinois. 1t her.
aided the three-day work week,
which gave the miner only suffl-
cient money to meet his most
urgent daily living requirements
and left nothing for numerous
installment- buying obligations.
The miners anxiously hoped the
order would shortly be rescinded
and a satisfactory contract
signed.
Miners Resentful.
AS the weeks and months wore
on, there was much comment
against the three-day week. This
feeling was not one of resentment
toward the coal operators, since
every miner knew that the oper-
ators were eager for the miners
to work their full time.
Trickling down through the
grapevine came reports that dis

clear that the heavy wage losses
of the workers had not been a
result of wage-negotiation stale

wages had not even been discussed
by the United Mine Workers and
coal operators negotiators.
When the regular, complete

uncalled-for strike with unneces-

CANTON, ILL.,, July 3l.-The
United Mine Workers. almost to
a man, are Communist. The
mine workers are Americans, who
believe in America and are proud
of it.
All the miners I have ever talked
to are bitterly opposed to the ac-
tion of John L. Lewis in refusing
to sign the anti Communist pledge
as required in the Taft-Hartley
Act to secure full rights before
the National Labor Relations
Board. Most miners have be-
lieved for a long time that the
United States Government and its
people have a deadly enemy in
the Kremlin and its Communist
dictatorship.
The mine workers practically
to a man want John L. Lewis to
sign that pledge, the same as
other union leaders have gladly
done. The mine workers feel that
one of the wisest sections of the
Taft Hartley Act was the one
dealing with the Communists.
It is my desire to call atten-
ton to one shortcoming in the
Taft Hartley Act and to point out
that did not agree with all Sec
tions in the act: but Taft him.
self has offered to make changes
where it has been demonstrated
that the Taft-Hartley Act works
a hardship on the. legitimate ac-
tivities of a union. Senator Taft
has been honest and fortnight
in this respect.
There is one phase of the law
that can be helped.
Wants Secret Ballot.
In a labor organization like the
United Mine Workers, where, as
in the State of Illinois, Lewis
holds a practical dictatorship over
the activities of the members, the
miners should have genuine DEM
ocratic protection by voting in
side union hall. That can only
be done through secret ballot
on ail-important measures, where
a member can vote his conscience
without any one in that union
knowing how he voted.
It is this kind of democratic
ballot which has made America
great and made Senators, Con-
gressmen and Governors the serv-
ants of the people who elect them,
and not their masters.
In District IL, John Lewis has
his financial agents in every
unio;, local Where a standing
vote ss required to handle prob
lem, few men would dare to stand
up and be counted in sight of
these Lewis agents if they knew
that Lewis personally was against
the thing the individual miner
was voting for.
Reprisals would be immediate.
and have been so for many years
in Illinois. Certainly the union
member should have this protec-
ton and should have it by fed
eral law.
In the rest of this series I will
deal minutely with the occur
rences in Canton from the first
of July, 1949, to the present time.
I will show frankly exactly what
happened and what the feeling of
the miners was on the three-day

tenable willing and able" clause
and the complete control Of the
welfare and pension fund by John
L. Lewis.
Let me repeat one very import
ant point. most of the miners did
not want the willing and able
clause, since they were satisfied
with a stable wage contract and
wanted all the work they could
get under it and not be subject
to numerous stoppages at the
whim or prejudice of Lewis per-
Sonally.
Opposed to Individuals Whims.
Since a large part Of the miners
were heavily obligated with home,
furnishings and automobile in
stallment contracts, the propo-
sition of being called out on a
job for the mere purpose of salts
flying one individuals whims stuck
in the craw of thousands of mine
workers.
