did not.
General Hershey's ruling said the
law required that a veteran be given
"his former position or one of like
seniority, status and pay even though
such reinstatement necessitated the
discharge of a non-veteran with great-
er seniority."
Douglas recalled, however, that
Hershey was not the only official who
had ruled on the law The National
War laibor Board ruled quite differ-
ently.
Douglas commented:
"We have searched the legislative
history In vain for any statement of
purpose that the jirotection accorded
the veteran was the right to work
■when by operation of the seniority
system there was none then available
for him."
And there is no suggestion', said
Douglas, that Congress sought to
sweep aside the aeuiority system.
What it was trying to do was to give
the veteran protection within the
framework of the system.
Washington, D. C. (AFLWNSh—
Text of declaration by the AFL Ex-
ecutive Council on the United Mine
Workers’ demand for a health and
welfare fund follows:
The Executive Council, after giving
careful consideration to the issues In-
— vol veil in the coal dispute, has come
to the unsnimus conclusion that the
United Mine Workers of America is
thoroughly justified in carrying on
Its fight for the establishment of a
health and welfare fund for the coal
miners of the nation.
We wish to emphasize (bat in press-
ing this fight the United Mine Work-
ers Union la carrying out the ex-
| pressed determination of Ita members
to protect themselves against the In-
human conditions under which they
are forced to work.
The fai ts leave no room for debate
We find:
1 That each year thousands of
minors arc slaughtered or crippled
by preventable mine accidents be-
cause of Inadequate inspections and
the greedy and grudging policy of
the coal operators toward safety In-
stallations.
2 That compensation for Injured
miners and the dependents of those
killed In mine accidents falls far short
of even a minimum standard of human
decency.
3 That the evils of the company
doctor system deprive the miners of
the opportunity for proper medical
care and hospitalization.
t an anyone blame the miners for
using their economic strength to cor-
rect such intolerable conditions'
Can the American people fail
condemn the coal operators for stub-
bornly refusing to grant the fair de-
mands of their employes'
The coal operators have rejected
the union s proposal for a health and
welfare‘fund on the ground that it is
a new and revolutionary procedure.
This position is completely ut va-
riance with the facts.
Health and welfare funds have
been established to protect mine
workers in Great Britain. Spain and
India Shall America lag behind other
countries in safeguards for its work
era'
Similar welfare systems are in ef-
fect in other industries in America,
such as the garment and electrical
trades. Is It reasonable to refuse
a health and welfare fund to the min-
ers who are engaged in a much more
hazardous occupation'
The Executive Council is convinced
that the proposed health and welfare
fund will prove a^great boon to the
mining Industry, by preventing acci-
dents. reducing occupational disease,
improving the morale of the workers
and alleviating human suffering.
We wish to let it be known that the
American Federation of iaibor sup-
ports the United Mine Workers of
America to the fullest extent in this
controversy. ’The coal miner* are not
fighting alone for the justice they
deserve The seven million members
of the American Federation of laibor
will back them up to the limit until
victory is won.
