MINERS DRIFT BACK TO WORK IN STRIKE ZONE Both Sides Satisfied That Pennsy Conditions Are Much Improved. BY WILLIAM G. LYTLE JR. Times Staff Correspondent PITTSBURGH, Jan. 4.—Pittsburgh’s coal fields are emerging from the bitterness and hatred engendered by the conflict between the operators and the United Mine Workers of America into an era of peace and reconstruction. Regardless of the merits of the union contentions or of those of the coal companies which now are working nonunion, it is plain today that striking miners in enormous numbers have returned to work for tl ie companies which employed them ! before the strike began. A trip to j the coal territory which encircles j Pittsburgh, a few miles beyond the city limits, proves this. The spirit of unionism still is j trong in the district, and doubtless j always will be. The United Mine | Workers of America has kept faith j ”ith its people. Union men and; women may be working for non- j union companies, but they are loyal to tile ideals ol unionism. Took Wiser Course The return to work was a matter of expediency. Men, wo-ien and children, who 1 up the fight to the point of starvation in frame barracks scattered throughout the Pittsburgh coal region, will give you to understand that the return to work was made under advice of the officialdom of the coal union. Naturally the heads of the union made no proclamation to that effect. But an observer gathers that the word was passed quietly around to men and women who had endured i months of sacrifice that the time I had come to hunt jobs wherever they cot. Id be found. Both the coal companies and the union chiefs have a certain attitude to be maintained in their public sta tem6 n t s. The union leaders could not be expected to announce publicly that their people had returned to jobs which they left April 1, 1927. Serves Cause Better But the union chiefs at Pittsburgh are wise and humane men. They knew that the cause of unionism could not be served by having the union people starve their children and impoverish themselves. Far better and wiser from the union standpoint for union men to work, even at nonunion jobs, and amass resources against a happier day when the union may make its j strength felt again! That seems j to be the union viewpoint. On the other hand, a coal operator could not be expected to admit ! publicly that he was delighted to j :;et his old men back in the pit. ; But the coal operators have been i overjoyed, all the same, even though some may sit in their offices and with large gestures assert that the labor supply is sufficient without the men who went on strike. Discarding the attitiu.es which both the union and the coal companies maintain before the public, the actual viewpoint of the opposing forces boils down to a situation which looks more cheerful than anything the district has seen for more than three years.
