It is stated that 514,500 miners have quit work, including 117 000 non-unionists. The report disapproves West Vir ginia conditions, but the church men indicate that this state is not the only portion of the country where guards assault strikers and usurp government functions. "Beatings up, in time of industrial disturbances, is not a sectional phenomenon, says the report. While labor is admitted the larg *?st single item of cost in the produc tion of coal, it should be borne mind, say the church men, that "from the consumer's point of view, not la bor, but transportation and middle men's profits are the major items.' in Solution of the coal problem, is pointed out, is blocked by ignorance of facts, as the national coal associa tion, through an injunction, has frus t,rated the attempts of the federal trade commission to make extensive studies of the cost of coal production The report declares that the anti union shop fight "probably has no where reached so bitter a stage as in West Virginia. "Any one who tries to encourage union organization is considered an 'agitator,'" continues the report The coal owners consider that they have every right to keep organizers out of the communities which they themselves own."

Hughes, who recently resigned as president of the International Coopers' Union, is located in this city as trade extension manager for the associated cooperage industries of America.

Auto Club member- MORE MILITANT a o s e e i n a i o n Greater Under Attacks of Opposition Washington.—"Opposition to or anized labor has created a more mili tant spirit in the workers and has iven them greater determination," said President Gompers in a public statement on the forthcoming con vention of the A. F. of L. We have known from the outset that the anti-trade union movement could not succeed, because it is found ed on principles that defy all sound iws of economics. And now, in view the remarkable and noteworthy sol idarity in the ranks of the workers, we are doubly sure that the country will not much longer be called upon to contend with that essentially sel fish and short-sighted effort on the part of certain groups of employers. "Labor looks with great hope to the coming primary elections and to general elections this fall. An un usually reactionary congress is now session, but there are excellent indications that the people will, at the first opportunity, make changes which will interfere seriously with the program of those who most desire a reactionary legislative record in the national capitol. 'I am confident, from long expe rience and observation, that the com ing convention will produce a record as thoroughly progressive as any yet written in American labor history. "The needs of the hour call for progressive, constructive effort, and the unity, solidarity and harmony within our movement constitute guarantee that the needs of the hour will be met." BLIZZARD_FREED WestVirginia Miner Acquit ted of Treason Charge Charles Town, W. Va.—William Blizzard, official of the Mine Work ers' Union, who was charged with treason 'in connection with the march of miners through Logan county, last fall, was found not guilty by a jury The indictment was one of 16, in eluding charges of murder, insurrec tion and conspiracy, and involve sev eral hundred men, 120 of whom ob tained a change of venue from Logan county to this (Jefferson) county. The prosecution selected Blizzard to be tried first, and have been de feated in what they believed to be their strongest case. The prosecution was conducted en tirely by coal owners' attorneys Neither the attorney general of state or the prosecuting attorney of this county had anything to do with the case. Coal owners' money paid at torneys' fees for the prosecution and also paid the fees of the state's wit nesses. New York.—"The state of West Virginia is itself responsible for the abuse of power in Logan county says the New York World, in refer CLEVELAND Arrire BUFFALO Th« CUrelond A Buffalo Transit Company Cleveland, Ohio The Great Ship 8 E E A N BE E tha largest and most costly piiMUg.r Stsamer on luluid waters of the world.

"Because it has failed to interfere with the coal owners' government it responsible for the disorders in duced by that government. Whether or not William Blizzard was involved in the armed march, his action was assuredly not treason. It cannot be treason by any definition to rebel against a denial of constitutional guarantees."

STANDARD TIM* over the supreme court's child labor decision was privately expressed by members of the American cotton manufacturers' association, at their convention in this city. James A. Emery, general counsel for the national association of manu facturers, joined in the celebration. No manufacturer was quoted on the decision, but W. H. Adams, secretary treasurer of the association, delivered himself of these ponderous senti ments: 'Textile manufacturers have for years past, in common with econo mists in other lines, viewed with much apprehension the increasing tendency towards governmental regulation of industry by the assumption of powers not directly vested in congress, and it is contended by many textile manu facturers that this decision will achieve much in the line of limiting such alleged unwarranted interfer ence in business."
