Any man who lowers himself to the extent of challenging the honesty of any working girl is the lowest type of human being. This girl for the past 171-2 years has handled the finances of District 7, not only when times were calm, but during the dark days of strikes and suspensions and not once has even the slightest suspicion Deen cast on her honesty. Millions of dollar have pased through her hands in the years of her service, and not once has a cent of this money been questioned and her records are in the district to prove it, and to show that the records of the district have always been kept fair and honest and open for inspection at-any time. "Any man who would resort to this low, cheap way of trying to clear himself of the lack of interest he portrayed in the organization he repre sented, would betray the members of this organization in the same way. He is endeavoring to do that now by trying to be reinstated as a member in violation of the district and national constitutions.

"To the rank and file of District 7, please be advised that Michael Hartneady is not a member of the United Mine Workers of America and cannot again be a mtmber unless he follows out of the dictates of the constitution. If he proceeds legally under the constitution, no person can bar him from membership. "With further reference to the sum of $683 which Mr. Hartneady states he turned over to the district, I would quote from the prodeedings of the district convention held in McAdoo in September, 1932, as follows: I lo6t In that plant myself $868, paying the payroll myself, and paying expenses trying to get the paper to continue on. But finally it had close, was put out of business.

"I would call to the attention of the membership the fact that Mr. Hartneady is very uncertain about the various sums of money he so liberally gave away. This sum of money was supposed to have been lert as collateral with the district secretary along with the $224.30. However, no such sum was ever given to the office secretary, nor any other person In the district office, and Mr. Hartneady knows this to be true.

He has no receipt to show that he paid this money lor dues Every man paying his dues in the district offices receives a receipt snow ing payment. Mr. Hartneady Insults the intelli gence of every mine worker in the anthracite region by trying to be re instated as a member in a manner other than provided by the district and international constitutions. Let every mine worker beware, Michael Hartneady is not Interested in the United Mine Workers, he is interested in a Job. Mr.

Hartneady considers himself far too good to don a pair of overalls and work among the mine workers at a colliery, which is the only legal way he can become a mem ber or tne united Mine workers again. But he elects to start an insurgent movement in the district and casts reflection on the honesty and Integ rity of an employee who has spent the greater part of her life working for an organization for which her fa ther gave his life, together with con demning and villifying every official. both district and international all this, rather than abide by the constitution, which as district president he held as a weapon over every mine worker in District 7. I quote Mr. Hart neady from the proceedings of the district convention of 1934: 'That is only complying with the constitution and the agreement, be' cause I am responsible for "As president of District I am now responsible for the compliance with the district constitution and it will be complied with.

Mr. Hartneady who for the past three and one-half years, since he became secretary of mines, never troubled himself about his membership, at this time comes into the field armed to tne gills witn poison about everyone but himself "He never left a red cent in the district office or with any member of the official family to take care of his dues he has no proof to offer for his statements that years ago he left sums of money to take care of his dues. Just give consideration to the sum of $224.30. This would give mm membership for a period of 18 years at one dollar per month, the 30 cents I suppose would go for a tip. Now take the sum of $638.

$683 and $868, which sum is correct. I don't know. Mr. Hartneady does not seem sure himself. Just for instance take the amount of $833, which is the sum Mr.

Hartneady is now using, at one dollar per month, Mr. Hartneadv would be a member for the next 69 years and 5 months. Mr. Hartneady is no more certain of the final curtain call than any other person on earth "All he was obligated to do, or any bonafide member, is pay one dollar per month plus any assessment that may be levied, and he is a 100 per cent union man. Mr.

Hartneady's false alarms mean nothing. He cannot be a member, and never will become an officer of the United Mine Workers again. I ask Mr. Hartneady to go over the past, especially when he was president of District win nis stewardship bear an accounting, or must Section 1 of Article XXL or tne in ternational constitution be applied? "The above information is sent to the rank and file for its information and guidance. The facts outlined herein should receive the serious con sideration of every loyal member of the United Mine Workers of America in order that the progress our or ganization has already made will be attained and If possible to write fur ther progress into its history which cannot be done by radical or lnsur gent means.

Brown, president of District 7, United Mine Workers of America, yesterday reiterated his charge that Pennsylvania Secretary of Mines Michael Hartneady is "heading an insurgent movement in District 7." In a letter to all locals in the district Brown restated his charge and replied to Hartneady's assertion that before entering Governor Earle's cabinet in January, 1935, he, Hartneady, left a sum of money with the district to cover his dues and thus retain his union membership. Brown has been at bitter odds with Hartneady recently over the latter's attempts to regain union membership. The mines secretary, who preceded Brown as district president, was dropped several years ago for alleged non-payment of dues. Brown's letter follows In full: "To the officers and members of Local unions located in District No. 7, "United Mine Workers of America.

"Dear Sirs and Brothers; "At this time I feel it has become essential to inform the rank and file of District 7 that an insurgent move is under way headed by former district president, Michael Hartneady. who through sole neglect, lost his membership in the United Mine Workers of America. This insurgent move spells no good to the United Mine Workers, hence this letter of Information and advice to our membership, which I trust will receive the serious consideration of every loyal mine worker under the banner of the United Mine Workers of America. "Mr. Hartneady.

in a series of statements to the public press and In statements made to the public, has elected to unjustly discriminate against the honesty of an office secretary by stating that he left In her keeping the sum of $224 to be used in the payment of his dues' and assessment, when he left the post of district president to assume his duties as secretary of mines. "For the information of every member, please be advised that Mr. Hartneady turned the sum of $224.30 over to the office secretary on Oct. 13. 1934, to be placed in the welfare fund to pay the nurses for the first two weeks of October, 1934, because the welfare department then, as it does today, had to be financed by the district.

The welfare department was founded by Mr. Hartneady and financially was a failure from the start. The $224.30 turned over by Mr. Hartneady was not cold in the treasury of the welfare department until it was used for the salary and expenses of those employed in that department. "I might further call to the attention of the membership the fact that this sum of money was deposited to th Tiit.

of the welfare department on Oct. 13, 1934, in the Traders Bank and Trust Co. Now, then, Mr. did not become secretary of mines until January 15, 1935, yet he stated in his libelous circular letter that when he left the post of district president he turned this sum of money over to the office secretary. The records both in the district office and in the Traders Bank will Dear ims statement out.

"The $224.30 referred to is less tnan the amount of money received by Mr. Hartneady from the United Textile Workers for organizing the Duplan employes. The sum arrived at was paid for on tne Dasis oi cents per memoer. mere were 1400 emDlovees. Ask Mr.

Hartneady what has become of the difference? "In other words Mr. Hartneaay re ceived 25 cents for every employee or ganized. What happened to ine on-ference between $224.30 and the total omnimt. received? The $224.30 was not all he received and he knows it. But he evades giving tne ranic ana me the true facts, hut tne casinos aoes have the facts.

"Another fact the memoersmp oi District 7 should know is that Mr. Hartneady claims when he left the post of district president me sum oi $224.30 was turned over to the office secretary. As stated above the records will show the deposit was made on October 13, 1934, the greater part of a month before the state election was held, and at that time no mention had been made of Mr. Hartneady being selected as the secretary of mines, because the victorious party In the election was not Known, un wiai date. Oct.

13. 1934. Michael Hartneady was still president of District 7 and did not have the slightest idea that he was going to leave the post.
