RE: JOH! L. LEIS, ET AL
- eee ;
INTLRVIE.. UITU Se, come up to ue while I was working,
(continued) asked me if I didn’t want to sign up,
and I di I didn't want to have any
trouble, and I had seen ane fellov, , after he was supposed to
have been beaten un over union trouble.
"In February of 1941, at the clection, I voted for the U.1M.V., be-
cause I feit the majority of the men went ULM.7. Many of the old F.MLA
men were gone, and tie ULI... had ae a lot of nem men in. Sometime
after the mine reopened, I saw wive some checks, yellow ones,
eaibiel ate TH Leela i ite ee |
the samc color as those used by mono vo (Ey << two others,
whose names I don't know. JI bllieve these checks were given on a revular
Inine pay day, but I don't imow what thes were for. It might have been
that he nad just picked up their checks for them,and was giving thea to the
men. I ued an ides that some of the men were being paid for their
authoritics, but I don't have anytnuing to Dacx it up.
"Durins the picketing, at first, Elshoff would let P.M.a. go to the
botton ef the shaft for coal to heat the boilers, but after a short tinc
he stopped that, end the men brought their own coal.
"T hav. hed the foregoinz, consisting of approximat iy five pages,
read to me, and stctc that it is the truth to the best of mo knowledge."
