The strike began September 1 and ran five and one- half months, reaching its peak qur ing the holiday season. | Statements of John L. Lewls, in-| ternational president of the United Mine Workers, and assoclates call | attention to the prosperity which prevails this winter and predict continued good times for the in- | dustry. , | “Christmas in 1926 is a more | yous season than the Yuletide of 2 year ago” said Mr. Lewis. “At that time the anthracite industry was enduring the stress of a great strile with all of its attendant in- conveniences and suffering. Today | we are happy that these condi no longer exist. The anthrac mine workers and the anthracite communities are enjoying relative prosperity with all its attendant; comforts, There is every reason-| able expectation that the present| day prosperity will continue for an | indefinite period throughout the industry and the nation.” | Thomas L.
