This supplements my memorandum to the Attorney General
dated July 24, 1943, outlining the scope of the investigation.
In that memorandum, at pages four to six, I set out, as
one of twelve "areas of investigation", a breakdown of alleged
unfair labor practices by subject Elshoff. It was noted, however,
 bottom of page six! that the files of the Labor Board had not
than been fully analyzed, and that a supplemental memorandum
would be furniehd. ;
This memorandum sets out a more refined analysis of the
allegations of unfair labor practices by Elshoff, identifies the
evidence now available to us, and indicates certain desired in-
quiries in connection with each allegations These specifications
are not intended, however, to restrict the scope of the investi-
gation. The Bureau will feel free, and is requested, to inves-
tigate in this, as in other areas of investigation, to the limit
of the factual issues involved.

that the fact of collusive payments from V.M.W. officials to
Elshoff was not then known. That fact is nos established, and,
as a consequence, the Progressives allegations, conjectures,
and suspicions appear in a more respectable light.
Chronologically, the alleged unfair labor practices
fall into four groups: &#39;
A. Unfair labor practices prior to the closing of
the mine on Ray 12, l937, - the incubation of
the conspiracy. 
B. Unfair labor practices between May 12, l§37, and
January 4, 1938, -- attempts to effect a U.H;¥.
coup d&#39;etat.
C. Unfair labor practices from January L, 1938, to
November 7, 1939, ~ the period of siege and
starvation.
D. Unfair labor practices from Ncvenber&#39;7, 1939, until
Perch, l?4l, -- favoritisn_in the struggle for mem-
bership.O
Ti Q4  Proof that nlsh i; was actually guilty of unfair labor
practices during the period-of the conspiracy is vital if prose-
cution is to be undertaken. Overt acts are not an essential
element of a Section 51 violation. It is theoretically suffi-
cient to prove merely that subjects conspired with a guilty
intent, but proof of intent, in the absence of admissions, is
necessarily circumstantial, and, therefore, as a practical matter
in case of prosecution, it would be essential to prove that
Flshoff actually did impose unfair labor practices, as  it
would be alleged -- he was paid to do. .

A. was UNFAIR LABOR PRACTICES PRIOR TO
THE CLGSING or rue MINE on MAI 21, 193?,
- TIE INSUBATION OF THE COIEPIRLCY
No specific allegations of u.nIair labor practices
during the period prior to May 12, 1937, were made by the
Progressives, and at present re have no direct evidence to
establish any such practices. It is established that during
.Aprri_L, 193?, and perhaps prior thereto, the United Kine
Workers were paying several Progressive members to campaign
for the United Mine Workers. The details of this activity,
however, are not known and, therefore, it is reqaested the
full scope of these activities be ascertained. This request
is set out in more particulars on page 3 of my mmorandum of
July 24, 1943.
If it is ascertained that Elshofi knew of these
practices and either acquiesced in, or encouraged than, an
unfair labor practice would be established.
The substance of the statements of all the subject-I
in respect to the agreanent to make the payments is to the
effect that a.n not
to ti e an understanding had been reached
between Elehofi and the U. M. W. officials that they would
cooperate to the and that U. M. W. should Fin over bargaining
rights at the mine. We have no tangible evidence to this ef-
fect and it is requested that the Bureau direct inquiries to
determine whether any evidence oi such an understanding prior
to Eay 12, 1937, can be uncovered.
O Apparently, during April of 1937, members oi the
s to United Lfine Workers attempted to cause the Progressive go
on strike by circulating rumors to the effect that an
contract signed April 23 1937, between Elshoff and cGil1

0It is believed that during this period Edmundson
and Elshofi hoped that they could win the victory for
U. M. W, by drastic and immediate measures, such as signing
the closed shop contract with U. H. W. on August 13, 1937,
and the attanpt to reopen the mine on September 2&#39;7, 1937.
These at-tmpts by s. coup d&#39;et-at were frustrated by the so?
eessful efforts of the Progressives to have a Labor Board
election, which the Progressives won by the overwhelming
vote of 404 to 25. On January 4, 1938, the date the certifi-
cation of representation was received in Springfield, Elsho
made his third unsuccessful attempt to reopen his mine with
members of the U. M. W. Subjects realized then that a coup
d&#39;etat was impossible and from that time on the "freezing out"
process began in earnest.

The stipulation and agreement entered into on August.
10, 1938, between Klshoff, the Progressives and U. LI. 17., was,
in practical effect an admission by Elshcff and U. LE. Hi that
the signing of the contract of August 13, 1937, was an unfair
labor practice. However, the Board&#39;s order oi September 13,
1938, and the decree of the Circuit Court of Appeals on June
17, 1939, were @ed upon the consent of Elshoff and U. H. U.
and there was accordingly no actual adjudication of fact.
The order and the decree will not be admissible to prove the
unfair labor practice and the stipulation will not amount to
an admission, but will probably be admissible as a circumstance
to be considered alone with ell other relevent fact-s=

Elshofi knew that at the time the contract was signed, that
U. 1.1. W. had only a dozen or more members at the mine.

Elshofi actually believed that the signatures were legitimate,
this fact would seem to be conclusive that his signing of a
closed shop contract with U. H. W. e month later was an unfair
labor practice unless radical changes took place meanwhile.
The following inquiries are suggested:
 a! Were there any circumstances which warranted
Elaho in questioning the authenticity oi the
signatures? -
 b! ma u. u. w. officials know that he was writ-
ing his letter of July 12, 1937?
 e! itid he discuss receipt
U. ll. W. officials?
 d! Were there any circumstances between the time
of E1shofi"s receipt of this petition artlmzgust 13,
1937, which would justir him in believing that
there had been a radical shift in the loyalty of
his employees from the Progressive Union to U. 11. W.?

establish their collective bargaining rights.
On Septenber 2&#39;7, 1937, Elshoff attempted to reopen

C. UNELIR LABOR PHACTICES FROM JLIUARI 4, 1958,
T0 NOVEMBER ?, 1939, -- THE PERIOD OF SIEGE
AND STARVITION. 
after his attempt to reopen the nine o January 4, 1958,
failed, Elshoff kept his nine closed until lcvember 7, 1939 --
twenty-two moths later._ During this time, the Progressives claim
they were constantly seeking to negotiate a contract with Elshcff
pursuant to which the mine could be reopened. Tlo principal alle-
gations of unfair labor practice, therefore, are suggested during
thil period;
! That Elshoffpdontinued the shut-Down in Qrder to assist §.lh!i1gEroezn ,&<1?12=..*=-&#39;91 are i%:2s5=§=;it::Q¢s:¥&¬&~¬Y°=- W 
There is no direct evidence new available which indiates
that this was Elsho£f&#39;s purpose. The circumstantial evidence, haw-
ever, strongly points that way. It is difficult to uderstand thy
Elshoff--assuming he intended to repay the U.H;I} "loans"-was
willing to keep the mine closed and thereby incur huge losses.
Elshoff&#39;s statement suggests that he feared to reopen the mie
because of possible violence between the two unions. This sug-
gestion is discounted by the fact that in the fall of 1937 he
obtained an injuotion against the Progressives on the theory
that he wanted to open the mine with the U.H.I} furnishing the
employees. Inquiry is requested to ascertain whether there was
any basis for Elshoffis excuse. Evidence on this point, of course,
must necessarily be of a negative character, but all information
bearing on Elshcff&#39;s true reason for keeping the nine closed should
be obtained.

It was the contention of the Progressives that throughout
the period when the mine was closed, Elshoff refused to bargain
collectively with them. It was asserted that he would fail to
appear at meetings, would postpone matings, and when he did
appear to bargain with the Progressives, he would just go through
the motions and would not actually bargain in good faith with any
real intention of reaching an agreement.
The following National Labor Relations Board photostats
have a bearing on the two alleged unfair labor pactices set out
above;

The mine reopened on November 6, 1959, on an open-shop
basis, although it is beliewd the Progressives were still in the
majority.
Understanding of the unfair labor prsctices which folldled
the reopening of the nine requires consideration of the event: which
led up to the reopening of the nine.
Pursuant to charges of unfsir labor practices mode by the
Progressi on August
1, 1935,

However, on
end upon application of the Board, the Gircuit Gcurt cf .
Appeals could enter e decree that interference and intimidation of
employees attempting to form or join a labor organization of their
own choosing was to cease, that Mine B cease from rening to
negotiate with the Progressives, and that the contracts between
Mine B and United, made August 18, 1937, and September 20, 193?,
were not to be enforced.

 a! Did Elshcff express any cpinichs as to whether he
wanted U.H.I&#39;i&#39;.. to win the election! .

immediately begin to make plans to reopen the mine?

The U.1l.W. was certified by the Board on March 6, 1941.
Eight days later, Elshoff signed a closed-shop agreement with 13.11.17.
He thus acoomplithed in eight days what he had failed to accomplish
with the Progressives in four years. Inquiry should be directed to
ascertain;
.! When did Elshoff first indicate a Irillingness to sign
a closed=shop contract with U.H.r?2 {I distinguish here bets-sen
negotiating a contract, which he was obligated to do because of the
certification, and signing a closed-shop agreement, which he had
remsed to do with the Progressives after they were certied on
January 4, 1938.
 b! The NLRB files indicate that before Elshoff did sign
the contract, he notified the Regional Director of the Board that
he would not sign until the Supreme Court&#39;s decision had been
rn rHf"ad-..Q_-__ 1- -.=
Apparently he raised an absurd legal condition in this
respect. It is believed that this was simply a gesture on hie
part to give his action an appearance of impartiality. Inquiry
should be directed to ascertain whether he raised this contention
in good faith or not. 1

represent a continuation 01" U,!i.&#39;r&#39;l&#39;.&#39;s efforts to persecute the
Progressive movement, an effort in which Elshoff apparently is
cooperating, and  b! it manifests a recognition on the part of
both Edwundson and Elshoff that a union which has a oi osed-
shop contract is justified in requiring the employer to dis-
miss an em_[.9210},&#39;6e who has been expelled from the union.
It is requested that you investigate this incident
thoroughly with a view to determining whether Ce:-ry&#39;s dis-
missal was ever rescinded, what reasons, ii any, there were
for his expulsion from the union, whether he attemgted to
appeal the matter to the International Executive Board of

which they suggest. I am sending you the documents today, however,
in order that there may be no unnecessary delay in getting then
into the hands of your agents. Many of the_doouments should be a
of considerable assistance when you come to interview the officis1s_of the Progressive Union such as Johrmne, General gdunsel, andJ°;l°i°» E93.1s1_=;=u=-___.. - "
It is my belief that all of these officials who participated
in the events of 1957-41 should sooner or later be fully interviewed.
You will determine when it is most appropriate to make these con-
tacts. When ur. Coleman was in Springfield, he discussed with Ir-
Hallford the possibility that pending negotiations between the;*Ameriean Federation of Labor and U.MlW. made it precarious to
discuss the case in confidence with these Progressive officials.
Obviously, however, these officials should have a wealth of knowl-
edge concerning the pertinent events, and their cooperation can be
a great aid to your Bureau.
