LABOR TO DISK
VIRGINIA TROUBLES
Federation Leaders Meet
in Richmond Today.
12,000 Miners Out.
By the Associated Press.
Members of the. Executive Board of
the Virginia Federation of Labor
gathered in Richmond today to dis
cuss pertinent labor questions in the
State and consider proposed legisla
tion to be placed before the 1938 ses
sion of the General Assembly.
In the mining districts about 12,000
miners stayed away Irom the shafts,
unaffected by the agreement which
ended the one-day shut-down in the
soft coal industry.
Negotiations in the Textile strike
at the Covington plant of the Indus
trial Rayon Corp. were stalemated.
Judge John L. Connors, Federal con
ciliator, said he did not expect ne
gotiations to get under way for a
week or 10 days. About 1.300 workers
have been idle since the start of the
strike five days ago.
Activities of C. I. O.
W. D. Anderson, legislative chair
! man of the Virginia Federation of
i Labor, said among'other things, the
I activities of the C. I. O. would be dis
cussed at the board's meeting in
Richmond today.
The Virginia federation voted to
co-operate with the C. I. O. at its an
I nual convention in Covington nearly
! a year ago.
Anderson recently requested Gov.
George C. Peery to investigate activ
ities of “special officers' in the coal
1 mining areas of Dickenson County.
The Governor advised Anderson to
direct his complaints to the courts
which appointed the special officers.
Anderson said the question would
be discussed at today's meeting, as
well as plans {or the State convention
which will be held in Lynchburg next
month.
Shutdown to Continue.
The mine shutdown, which began
yesterday, will continue in Virginia,
Southern Appalachian. Harlan County
and Hazard, Ky.. districts, Philip
Murray, United Mine Workers’ vice
president, said following a meeting in
New York yesterday.
Spokesmen for Virginia and Hazard,
: Ky.. said they had not signed the new
! contract because of competition be
j tween their districts and the South
| ern Applachian district in Tennessee.
The “proper relation” between the
Appalachian and Southern Appala
chian scales appeared to be the crux
of the situation in the Southwest Vir
ginia and Eastern Kentucky coal
fields.
Officials of the local union were ex
pected back from New York during
' the week end. However, observers at
Norton expressed doubt an amicable
i agreement could be reached and the
I miners ordered back to the pits until
j after Monday.
