In a nutshell, the strike centres around a differ- ence between the Organized Labor Unions of the Steel and Mine Workers and the British Empire Steel Corporation. About the only principal bone of contention" seems to be `-`shorter hours and higher "pay" but digging deeper we find that sin- ister, red undercurrent of eruption against society that seems to be` steadily revealing itself in various parts of the country. The publishers of the_ newspapers talked with steel workers while passing through `their section of the plants, questioned men in the blast furnaces, in the yards, in the coke ovens, in the coal collieries of New Glasgow, and even inspected miners homes. anti. on the whole we found very little dissatisfac- `ion. In fact. as one man put it. when a strike was called by the Union officials the majority of the men stayed at home because they were afraid to be found at work. * * ` We have all read, gruesome reports in var- ious papers depicting the terrible conditions; under which the miners live; that they are a poor, ignorant lot, laboring under the conditions to which no other man would: submit, living in hovels. with their families half-starved and naked. Iverything we had the privilege of see- ing .with our own eyes brands all these de- scriptions as tommyrot." * * When a few of us were `bold enough to suggest to our driver that we would actually like to inspect the interior of some of these so-called poor down-trodden miners homes, -he was per- fectly willing to see what the good miner's housewife thought of it. After explaining our desire andpurpose, and waving aside her embarrassment and apologies, we en- tered and she conducted us through the en- tire house. Whatevler the good miner thought when she informed him of our in- trusion we cannot say, as we were away down on. the beautiful Bras d Or Lakes by that time. Without being too intimate in our description of this good lady s home, we can trguthfully say our local furniture dealers would revel in the joy of equipping every home in this county with similar fur- nishings. There were excellent rugs on the floors, both a player-piano and a victrola in the living room, an abundance of first- class furniture throughout every room in the ehouse,i and on the whole, looked like one of those happy contented` homes that every young couple craves. The majority of the homes are rented from the Company and the highest rent is $8.00 per month, which also includes water rates. They are equipped with electric lights, running water. many more bathrooms than we can boast,` and joy! 0 joy, they buy coke all the year round from the Company for $2.25 per ton!
