WASHINGTON, Sept, 12 — An army
of three-quarters of a million men,
with no divisional or corps numbers,
with no Insignia except that of the
man who labors, and working far
from the fanfare of trumpets, is the
subterranean army of men who toll
In the darkness of the underground
to produce the coal that supplies the
vital necessities of the other army
now fighting the Huns.
That the coal miners constitute an
army ns truly as the men who march
I to the front Is being attested dally by
the enthusiastic reports that reach
! the bureau of mines of the depart
; ment of the interior of records
smashed in the production of coal.
From all parts of the country, from
| isolated villages, in places where one
would imagine the war spirit was slow
in penetrating, come these reports
that miners have gladly given up
their holidays in order that there
should not be any slowing up of the'
great war machine that is destined to
finally crush the Hun. These reports
from operators not only give the facts
of greater production, but generally
add a virile comment upon what their
organizations intend to do in the near
future to help win the war. The pa
triotic spirit that pervades the oper
ators is tile game in the superinten
dents, the foreman and the men them
selves. The lone miner in his work
ing place, tearing the coal from its1
resting place, knows that more coal
means more guns, more ships, more
munitions, and that these mean vic
tory and the saving of the lives of
their brothers who are fighting across
tile seas.
Just recently the bureau of mines
sent one of Its representatives into
the mines of Michigan, Tennessee and
Ohio to investigate the pyrite which
may he needed in the manufacture of
sulphuric acid, the pyrite being the
sulphur found in the coal. It is not
known as yet whether it will be nec
essary to use these sulphur balls, the
bureau making the investigation as a
measure of preparedness. The Inves
tigator found, however, that the oper
ators and the miners were ready to
mine the pyrite just as soon as it was
demanded.
The message brought back to the
bureau by the investigator was that
the outstanding feature of his trip
was the absolute patriotism of the
men and the general anxiety to help
the government In any way possible.
The Investigator found that the old
socialistic chalk slogans on the walls
of many mines had given way to "Buy
Liberty bonds" and many other ref
erences to winning with the war. One
of the most familiar of the signs in a
number of mines reads, "To hell with
the kaiser." Almost every electric
motor seen In the mines carries a
miniature American flag, bringing
continually to the miners that the
v ar is on and giving him the in
spiration to greater effort.
And the miner is risking Ills life
as well as the soldier boys at the
front. In the year 1917, the lust for
'■ hich statistics are available. 2,096
miners gave up their lives while dig
ging coal to win the war Unfortu
nately the government does not tab
ulate the casualties of the mines as
it does of the soldiers. If the number
of injuries could be shown they would
indicate that mining perhaps Is as
hazardous as war. Yet the miner I
goes about his work with the same
j enthusiasm and the same fearlessness j
as the boys "over there," and is as!
surely doing his part toward winning j
the war.
