Dixon Byrum, chairman of the board announced today. The boatd started a campaign during the latter part of 1924 to relieve the situation in the coal fields where over one-half of the 33.000 miners are idle. Although Bynum admitted that 150 miners was a very small percentage of the total out of work, he said, after the campaign is started he expected it to gain headway and the rate in which miners are accepted for employment in the Calumet region to increase. After a few families of the miners are located in industries there he expected them to aid the others back home to join them. Activity at the Indiana mines has been slow since the post-war Industrial depression, Bynum said. Many mines which were open to rake care cf the demands of the wart'me expanded fuel consumption and have been forced into idleness. This condition lias thrown out of work many men who flocked here to
man the new operations On the other hand, according to ' reports from Lake county, the Calumet district steel mills are the i btiHleet iii the country. Many of I them are operaiing on 90 to Itio per cent basis. Ground is being broken and plans ! are being made for new plants the cost of which will run up into million- of .10l ar; and which will employ thou atids of num. Hundreds of men will al-o be needed for construction , work. * I Bynum de.dared It a better plan to , absorb the tnen Idle in Indiana into this activity inste.nl of Imphrting them from other states. — —. — o — — 'Kills His Divorced Wile And Himself Omaha, Neb., March 19—(Special to Daily Democrat!
