And the man chosen to head the committee is an appointed clerk of the machine, la- belled a “statistician,” who was ap- pointed to this juicy plum as a con- solation for his defeat by Duncan MacDonald for president of the Illinois Federation of Labor four years ago. As far back as 1919 the miners repudiated Mercer in the union elections, but he has been kept on the pay-roll ever since by ap- pointment. Similarly, Gus Fritz, district board member from Belle- ville, was appointed head of the hand-picked Constitution Committee. May Be Long Fight. The prospects are that the 700 delegates will have an extended stay in Peoria, ranging from two to three weeks. The machine has provided for an extensive program of “head- liners,” prominent speakers, to take up the time of the convention while} t is busy trying to “persuade” rebel delegates. From the national office of the U. M. W. there will be President John L. Lewis, Vice Pres- ident Phil Murray, and Secretary- Treasury Thomas Kennedy. From he.city governme..t of Peoria there come Mayor Louis Mueller and City Attorney Fred Beckman. The clergy is represented hy Father McGuire of Viator’s College, and the Rev. Victor C. Goyke of the Springfield diocesan charities. No speaker has es yet been announced to represent the Illinois Coal Operators’ Associa- tion, but Ed. Wieck, the secretary-| manager of the union’s “Tllinois) Coal Sales Association” is on the st. Winding up the list are also! such erstwhile “radicals” of former years as John W. Walker, president of the Illinois Federation of Labor, end Alex Howat, once more presi- cent of the Kansas district by grace * John L. Lewis. A Mass Revolt. All of these preparations and maneuvers are called forth by the revolt of the Illinois miners against years of most shameless betrayal by the district and national bureaucrats. The conditions of the miners have become intolerable. Machinery and speed-up methods ere throwing many thousands of miners out of the industry, scrapping especially the older men who find it hard to keep pace with the terrific human wear and tear of the new machinery. There were 12,000 less miners in 1928 than in 1927, yet their total production was greater by 340,000 tors. The labor fakers offered the men| the employers’ program as a reme- dy—the program of a 20 per cent wage cut. The men rejected this overwhelmingly in a referendum last September, but the machine, committed to the employers’ pro-) mvam, faked the count and declared | the ge-cut adopted. This is the| charge of leading miners from all) over the district and they claim to. have a large volume of evidence to} prove it. On top of this, experience has shown that the wage-cut pro- gram is not a remedy at all, Illinois coal vroduction during December and January, after the cut, was 875,000 tons less than a year before at the higher wage scale and more end more mines are closing down. To Divide Workers. Under the Lewis policy of sepa-| rate district agreements expiring at) different dates, each district union is forced into a position of fighting its fellow workers of other districts | —in the interests of the operators. Common struggle is made impossible by the fact that, for example, the contracts of three adjoining dis- tricts expire at three different t'mes, Indiana in 1980, Kansas 1931, Tnois 1932, By actual experience the miners have learned to realize what with- out a drastic change of fighting tac- tics their living standards are doomed. The great bulk of the miners have also already come to realize that the U. M. W. A. lead- ership has consciously turned their once militant fighting union into an organ of the operators, into a com- pany union. But they do not yet fully realize the futility of all hope of recreating the union that used to be, the U. M. W. of Virden and Mount Olive traditions, That union} has been killed. What is needed now is a new nation-wide industrial union that meets the new conditions of mechanized coal mining, and that can fight the trustified coal oper-| ators and their renegade laborites | oy new tactics and methods of class | struggle. | A group of leading members of | the new National Miners’ Union, in- sluding National President John J.| Watts, District President Dan Sling- >, and National Board Member | Freeman Thompson, are in Peoria working to make the delegates sealize that only through the Na- sional Miners’ Union can the de- nands of the rank and file be met. | The program of the N.

This is seen in the fight of the thousands of tex- tile slaves in Happy Valley, Ten- nessee, in the fight of the dress- makers in New York, in the or- ganization drives of the shoe and food workers. It is seen in the formation of new industrial unions of the miners, textile, needle trades and shoe workers. May First must be a real dem- onstration of the growing class consciousness of the American working class and their determin- ation to free themselves from thy chains of American imperialism. May First must be a real united front demonstration in which the workers of New York, the leading city in the country, will show that they are determined to fight against the growing exploitation, against the war danger and against all forms of capitalist rationalization. May First is the day when the workers of the United States | must demonstrate for the defense | of the Soviet Union, against the preparations for the destruction | of the first workers’ and peasants’ | republic.
