GUN-THUGS THRONG TOWN "| One cold. night in London, Ken- | tucky, in February of 1937 auto- mobiles ,chugged their way through heavy snow and the bright warm lights of the count- less saloons in the town glowed, | when a deputy sheriff turned to a partner and said, “Something’s going to happen tonight. Every gun-thug in town’s here”. The) person addressed knew to what! the reference was—the mining companies’ use of force to intimi- date miners into non-organization of labor unions to raise wage scales. Later that night shots ‘were fired into the home of Mar- shal Musick, union organizer who was away on a trip, and his 19- year-old son, Bennett Musick fell dead. Proof that the mining con- panies are responsible is in the offing. TVA DISHONESTY Arthur E.
