Adoption urged in Morris plan to end mining strike
Union officials urge miners in the Hocking valley Sunday Creek valley and Crooksville districts to return to work under the Morris plan. Operators say the mutual association would fix wages and settle disputes without strikes, offering a day wage of five dollars and tonnage rates based on coal at 1.80 a ton. Leaders claim many miners favor the plan but say union officials hinder return to work.

The Columbus ruling enforces a closed primary for delegate elections in Ohio. It requires consent of the candidate in whose name a delegate runs, preventing unapproved candidacies, while presidential contenders may still seek delegates via personally approved nominees.
