Go to it, miners! [handbill]

Cleveland, OH: Trade Union Educational League, 1946. Pamphlet. 9x12 inch handbill, paper toned, otherwise very good. Issued by the Oehlerite incarnation of the TUEL.

"Go to it, coal diggers! We're on your side! Defeat and bury the Fascist-like actions of the Truman administration and its appointed political hacks in attempting to force a form of indentured slave labor on the American miners and their families. Now is the time to expose the role of the U.S. Government in acting as bureaucratic agent for the excessively wealthy coal operators and their friends.... Newspapers, radio and the speakers rostrum are feverishly spreading the monumental lie that the present coal dispute is between John Lewis and the authority of the U.S. government. The miners must expose this lie and present the truth - which is: the Truman administration, urged on and aided by the Southern Democrats and the reactionary Republicans, is acting as agent for, and in the interests of, a few dozen obscenely wealthy coal barons against the welfare of 400,000 coal diggers and their families.“ Urges the establishment of rank-and-file action committees.
