Product Information

Excerpt from Statement of the Strike Situation in Colorado: A Report of the Special Committee Appointed to Investigate and Report to Kensington Council No; 16, Junior Order United American Mechanics, Denver, Colorado To the Officers and Members of Kensington Council No. 16, Junior Order United American Mechanics: Your Committee, appointed to investigate the strike situation in this State and to prepare a statement in relation thereto, would respectfully make the following report: Kensington Council No. 16, Jr. O. U. A. M., of Denver, Colorado, is a patriotic fraternal society. Its only interest in the present strike controversy is as to its effect upon the public welfare. Its membership is composed of professional men, workingmen and business men, but so far as we kw t a single member of the Council is interested as employee, attorney, employer, or in any other capacity, either directly or indirectly with either of the parties to the strike controversy w raging in this State. We feel, therefore, that we have the opportunity and that it is our right and duty to give to the Order and to the world an account of causes and effects, past, present, and future of this ill-starred controversy, and also to submit some reflections as to the remedy. Colorado's Coal Fields Colorado is a great coal state. We have more than 11,000,000 acres of coal lands of which by far the greater part still belongs to the U. S. Government. 473,000 acres belong to the State of Colorado as Trustee for the School Fund and other funds. Of these 473,000 acres belonging to the State less than 14,000 are under lease and of the 14,000 leased to private parties only 5,500 acres are productive. Less than 3% of the vast coal acreage of Colorado is held in private ownership. Less than 5 percent of the total tonnage of coal mined in Colorado is from lands belonging to the State. The two greatest fields are popularly called the rthern and southern, and they are both n-union. The unions have, however, looked upon these great fields employing in rmal times about 13,000 men with avaricious eyes and have made many attempts to unionize them. In the fall of 1913 emissaries of the union were sent here from Indiana, West Virginia, and other States and all the power of the United Mine Workers was focussed upon the southern fields, and a strike was ordered.
