The coal miners of many districts of the United Mine Work- |

N

ie Union are mobilizing their forces for the emergency district |:

conventions which are soon to take place.
These emergency district conventions are, each and every
one of them, events of major importance to the entire labor move-
ment. Each can be made a tremendous step toward the emanci-
pation of the mine workers from peonage to the agents of the
e in the Miners Union, and in this way each can be
ig stride toward the saving of this great Union and rebuild-
ing it into an even more powerful organ of our class than any
Union has ever yet been in this country.
The coal miners cannot avoid the struggle. There is no turn-
ing back. John L. Lewis and his many lieutenants in all districts
are determined now on the destruction of the main body of the
Union and plan to preserve only what small fraction can be re-
tained in the form of a semi-company union with which to trade
with the operators for the benefit of their own salaries, expense
accounts and side-money. The continuous decay and disintegra-
tion of the Union, and open-shop slavery face the mine workers
