BI-ENNIAL CONVENTION
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Jan. 19.—
The biennial convention of the
United Mine Worker* of America is
now n session here with thirteen
hundred delegatee attending from
all over the United States and Can
ada. v
President White In his initial ad
dress to the convention pointed out
that the contracts expire In practi
cally all the hard and soft coal
fields in the United States on April
1 next, and that the convention
would have to consider at length
what plans the members should
take looking towards their Increas
ing their wagos proportionately to
the increased cost ot living and the
general advance In coal.
White emphatically said that
every paper was speaking of prosper
ity, and an unwonted activity in all
eastern and western lndustral lines.
He thought that the miners should
get roady to get their share of it,
and pass It around among them
selves who did all the work.
Incidentally White bitterly at
tacked the policy of preparedness.
He denounced the entire policy as
built up by the munitions trust to
milk a national treasury of Its
golden fluid. He opposed any sort
of preparatlonlsm whic^ was estab
lished for profit-making: If profit
making finds preparodnesa for war
essential to its continuance, it will
not hesitate at war when that
means more profit also.

of the grave suspicion of graft
which was claimed to be self evid
ent, .the government should own
the munition industry and be in a
1 position to manufacture tho same,
independent of all private enter
prise.
: Chmmirts said that nearly all the
experts in private arsenals, powder
factories and munition plants were
wen who had been trained ether
a
in the government arsenate, made
experts there, or else In tho army or
ordnance department of the govern
ment. These men were trained for
private flrmrf which amassed a
great profit In tho industry. Their
talents which were secured by a
government training belonged to the
government.
' The Senate today was debating the
independence ' of the' Phlljlplnes
with many speeches and “continua
tions In the record", pro and con.
Gardner and Govornor Hensley
have urged an - investigation of the
both sides of tho preparedness orga
nizations and especially the charges
levelled to the effect that they were
controlled by the mumltfbns makers
of the country.
Preparedness is now a very lively
issue.
