Fishwick, and his coal operator friends, think, or at least hope, that. the miners merely want some other ion than the U. M. W. They point out that Lewis has wrecked he U. M.

M. W. A. by Fishwick, is now n position to repeat his former charges that Lew gota $700,000 922 strik miners 1 to rally o Fishwick’s side in the present court battle wi Lewis oyer the control of District 12. They persist in remembering that from 1926 to the end of last year’s strike, Fish- | * wick worked hand in hand with Lewis in all this treason nad cor. ruption, They remember that F rington is a paid agent of the bos: es, too, They see that Lewis has onfessions from some of Fishwick’s lieutenants that the Fishwick ad- ministration stole miners’ money on a large scale, They joni the new V's von ea est hae se union, their own union, the National Miners Union, Always Reary to Please. So Fishwick hopeful that all they want is a new union, whether they un it themselves or not, offers them his. The answer will be given in} four sub-district conferences held day after tomorrow, in Springfield, Staunton, Belleville and Harrisburg, and in another called for a later |} date, in West Frankfort. These con- | ¢ ferences are organizational councils of the N. M. U., to which are also nvited delegates on an equal basis of representation, from all U. M.

Gertrude Welsh, secre- tary of the Foo! Workers Section o: the League, was chairman. Johnstone traced the development of the T. U. U. L. as an educational organization in 1920 to its develop- ment to a revolutionary trade union center at the Cleveland convention. “Through amalgamation, the T. U. E. L. paved the way for this de- veloy ment,” he said. The F. of L. had neither the will nos the power to cope with or- ganizational problems of the work- ers in the present era of rationsliza- tion of industry, Johnstone showed. | He quoted examples of man-power displaced by widespread int.c duction of the machine. ‘The A. F. of L. is a »usiness agency for the perfection of indus- rial efficiency. The TUUL fights rationalization and attacks on work- ers’ standards of living. “It fights, too, all forms of class cellaboration and espe-ially against discrimination against Negroes.”) The speaker said. ing on for a half hour when the po- | lice swung into action cgainct the workers.
