Since then I'have consulted the dis trict presidents who concur with my views. We desire again to assure you that we feel keenly the responsl blllty 6f our position and the gravity of the situation. It would give us great pleasuro to take any action that would bring the strike to an end In a manner that would bo a safeguard to the Interests of our constituents "In tho propositions made at the conference at the -White House we believed we had gone more than halt way and had met your wishes. It Is unnecessary to refer to the malicious assault made upon us in response by the mine operators. Having in mind various experiences with the opera tors in tho past, we have no reason to feel any degree of confidence in their pretended willingness to do justice In the future, inasmuch as they re fused to accept the decision of the tribunal selected by you and there Is no law whereby you could t.nforce the findings of the commission, as you suggest. We respectfully decline to advise the resumption of work, simply upon tho hope that thy oper ators might be Induced or forced to comply with tho recommendations of your commission. 'We appreciate your solicitude for tho. people who will undoubtedly suf fer ns a result of a continuance of tho strike, but feel that rather than take upon us the responsibility of this terrible state of affairs, should be placed upon the side which re fused to refer the adjustment to a fair and Impartial investigation."
