Sitdown Strike In Coal Shaft

Payroll Protest idles 1200 Others

'LANSFORD. Pa., Feb. 13 (U. P). ~Fourteen anthracite miners, staging a sitdown strike in a mine shaft 800 feet below the surface, caused the closing of the Lansford colliery of the Lehigh Coal & Navigation Co. today. :

About 1200 fellow miners, stayed away from the pits this morning after sending a delegation to the shaft with blankets and “plenty of food” for the sitdowners, who are protesting deductions from their pay for quitting work early. Heading the delegation was Fred Gallagher, chairman of a committee which represents nine local unions of A. P. of L. United Mine Workers. At first the committee had tried to persuade the men to abandon their strike, The sitdowners refused to leave the fifth level at the end of their work shift last night. Bride Visits Shaft Bunched together for protection against the dampness and cold, they asserted they would remain there “until we are reimbursed our justified pay.” One of the strikers ‘was Fritz | Redash, who was married less than | 24 hours before the strike started.| His bride visited the mine shaft! but was unable to talk to her new| husband. A 15th miner joined the sitdown but had to come to the surface because of illness a few hours later. The men decided to remain in the underground corridor after receiving pay checks for two weeks work | from which tHe company had docked | them for leaving the pits before the scheduled = quitting time, even though their quota of coal had been mined.

200 Workers ‘Docked’ It was the first sitdown strike in

1937, when 19 miners remained 1000 feet underground for 21 days. Four of them were hospitalized when they returrmed to the surface.

Union officitals said that more! than 200 employees of the mine had been docked “upwards of $60” each in yesterday's paychecks. One of the sitdowners, Adam Kokinda, father of 16 children, said his check totaled only $26.16 for 11

Check Suspect

William Jerome Scheule, 34, Milwaukee, was in jail here today facing a charge of passing bad checks. His arrest was due to the detective work of Mrs. Mabel Rowe, cashier of a downtown store and her husband, Donald Rowe, 3826 Central ave. Mrs. Rome became suspicious when a customer gave her a $35 check for a $25 piece of luggage at the Gausepohl Luggage Co. on Monument Circle. The check was on the Fletcher Trust Co. where her husband is a teller. She called Mr. Rowe and he reported presently that there was no such account at the bank. Then, both Mr. and Mrs. Rowe went to Union station on a “hunch” that

the city. In the station lobby Mrs. Rowe spied the customer with the piece of luggage he had bought. Police were called an dthe suspect was arrested and placed under $500 bond. Later Schule confessed to police that he had cashed bad checks at three other business places here yesterday. They were the Jacobs Outdoor Clothing Co., Oriental Art store and the Photo Supply Co. His case was continued until Feb. 25 by Judge Alex Clark in Municipal court 4 this morning.
