This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dreiser Committee, including writers Theodore Dreiser, John Dos Passos, and Sherwood Anderson, investigated the desperate situation of striking Kentucky miners in November 1931. When the Communist-led National Miners Union competed against the more conservative United Mine Workers of America for greater union membership, class resentment turned to warfare. Harlan Miners Speak, originally published in 1932, is an invaluable record that illustrates the living and working conditions of the miners during the 1930s. This edition of Harlan Miners Speak, with a new introduction by noted historian John C. Hennen, offers readers an in-depth look at a pivotal crisis in the complex history of this controversial form of energy production.

Caldwell, Jr., Metallurgist of the Kentucky Geological Survey, will be found elsewhere in this issue. We bespeak for this exceedingly valuable paper a very attentive perusal. It furnishes an exhibit of some of our most important resources (coal and iron), which, coming from the source it does, can not fail to attract attention abroad. It is a document which should be printed in pamphlet form and scattered far and wide, in the United States and Europe. Mr. Caldwell is a thoroughly accomplished and experienced metallurgist, his theoretical knowledge having been acquired at the great schools of science and art in Berlin, and his practical knowledge having been obtained in the iron-works of Silesia. He has been engaged by the Chattanooga Steel and Iron Works as the chemist of the establishment, and he will make his headquarters there upon the completion of the steel furnace of the company. This change will not, however, deprive the Geological Survey of Kentucky of Mr. Caldwell's valuable sendees. In the Northwestern States they trumpet throughout the world their great resources in wheat-producing lands, and keep them ever before the public by means of pamphlets, newspapers, and circulars. We have in Kentucky more durable and valuable resources than those States, and they can only be developed by letting the world know what they are. Our coal and iron region is immense and exhaustless. The facilities for working it are remarkable. We have only to force the facts relating to their abundance upon the attention of capitalists, and our State will be put forward half a century in progress."
