LABOUR BILL PROTESTS American Miners Walk Out: Movement Grows

Shipyard Men Restive

Washington, June 23.

Miners poured out of pits steadily today, increas- ing the numbers in the wave of wildcat walk- outs in protest against the Taft-Hartley Labour Bill, and there were growing Indica- tions that other Industries would soon be affected.

Latest reports estimated the number of miners who left their jobs was over 175,000 by night- fall.

Added to the minera was the, greas by Representative Howard immediate threat of over 40,000| Smith that Government's nu- shipbuilders going out and in thority to operate mines be ex- the automobile industry, the tended.
