In this statement the bank fails to state why the operators shut down in April and part of May, and why they contemplate shutting down in August. The bugaboo of miners returning to Burope, in the bank statement, al- though conservative in comparison to the claim of the operators that 40,000 are planning to cross the ocean, nev- ertheless is far short of the truth, for one in this section has yet diseov- ingle case of miners quittips to Kurope, Any quitting ot work ‘bas been due to the com: panies deliberately shutting down their plants several days a week and thus making it necessary for the miner to seek his livelihood in some other direction, Failure to operate the vast virgin fields hereabout constitutes the strongest source of criticism, ‘The Lehigh Company has one field which has never been touched, and which is estimated to contain no less than 200,000,000 toms of anthracite goal. ‘This is only one of many like case! and the natives insist that Federa intervention should be invoked, even if such action does not appear ‘tinan- clally appetizing to the coal baron, who is trying to keep down tion.
