Western Unionists May
Aid the Striking
-;".7' Miners.
(Journal Special Service.)
' SAM FRANCISCO, Cal.. July 2L-The
proposition to indorse the miner strike
sad lend financial aid to the strikers
is the wt Important matter to receive
attention at the big meeting of the exe
cutive council of the American Fedsru
tion, of Lsbor which began here today.
President Mitchell of the miners was un ¬
able to come to San Francisco and dele
gated Henry White of the garment work
era to act as his representative. u
White Will explain the origin and nature
of the miners' grievances and review. the
history of the strike, emphasizing the
claims of the strikers for aid from their
: fellow labor unions and praying that
ths needed assistance bo not withheld.
What action the council will take
problematical. In the .past the American
' Federation of Labor has been extremely
diffident about indorsing outside strlKes.
but it Is said that In the present instance
- a number of Influential members are in
favor of lending the coal miners mpn
etary aid. The council will be in session
a week or ten days. Besides the miners
strike there are several other important
matters requiring attention. The West
ern Federation has of late displayed such
rigor' of growth and wideawake enterprise
as to cause an uneasy feeling among the
leaders of the older organisation and It is
not improbable that steps will be taken
. looking 4o an affiliation of the two bed

the . Western organisation.
