BY WILLIS THORNTON NEA Seryice Staff Correspondent Harlan. June Harlan" has washed its face and hands and promised to keep them clean in future. of the last "frontier mining camps" in. the country, Harlan county has been ruled for.

20 years by the raw and ruthless methods common to an isolated mountain community where bluster, bludgeon and bullet were the successive courts of appeal in disputes personal and economic. Today a measure of freedom has appeared in Harlan county. The coal mines no longer hire and pay their private deputy sheriffs. Recent open-air mass meetings of miners drew 15,000 men, women and dren to listen wonderingly to union organizers harangue them. Six months ago this would have been impossible.

Six months ago any such open meeting would have been broken up by armed deputy sheriffs before it could assemble; signs announcing a meeting would have been torn, down. Six months ago most miners who even talked to union organizers would have been in danger of losing their jobs, If not beating. Prepare to "Abdicate" At very moment when radios along the main street of "Harlan Town," as the miners call it to distinguish it from the county, were out the feudal ceremonies England's coronation, the Harlan' County Coal Operators' association was meeting in its, dingy third-floor headquarters and preparing to "abdicate." For the first time the operators were badly split on what policy to adopt. The way was being prepared for the things that are going on today in HarJan: The coal miners' union, which did not have a handful of members six months ago, now claims 8,000, about half of all the coal miners of HarIan. The deputy sheriffs, hired and paid by the mines have been stricken off the rolls, their badges turned The state police have been sent in by A.

B. Chandler with definite orders to protect union organizers, and see to it that every miner has a free choice on organizing, without coercion from either operators or organizers. Federal treasury auditors are here, going into the accounts of county officials' to see whether they have paid proper taxes on incomes which bore little relation to their official salaries. G-men are here to find out whether prosecutions are justified under the "denial of civil rights" statute. Face Murder Charges Two deputy sheriffs face a coming grand jury and possible indictment as cold-blooded murderers of a union miner's boy.

Others face the possibility of similar charges as the whole county lawenforcement machinery is given a complete overhaul. Union organizers go about their business without being molested, though even today they prefer to remain in their hotel rooms at night rather than risk brushes on the dark, twisting mountain roads with "high-ridin' or such former deputies as may harbor grudges. Federal-built PWA centralized schools are rising to replace the poor quarters often provided. Legislative action to abolish permanently the "company-deputy" system, and, to control sale and possession guns, is being planned. "Dry- -Cleaning" for County The county which saw bloody civil war in 1931, with at least eight dead men along the roadside at Evarts, county of 70,000 people which had 64 homicides in 1933, is being dry-cleaned by new forces and new influences.

The influences which are changing Harlan county are these: 1. The Wagner Labor Relations act, which has brought the unionresisting coal operators face to face with the federal government instead of the local government which they dominated for years. 2. The LaFollette Civil Liberties investigation, which ventilated the evil practices of the Harlan coal region so publicly as to cause a revulsion even among some of the coal operators themselves. ..3.

The Musick murder, a killing so cold-blooded and heartless that even some of Harlan's gun-bearing deputy sheriff's condemn it. wt. Workers' The persistence organizers, of who United repeatedly Mine took the gravest chances in their efforts to organize the miners. 5. A governor who was able to read writing on the wall and exert the force of the state at the psychological moment.

6. Comparative prosperity in the coal fields, making miners' grievances less heavy, and making the operators less willing to face a bloody and costly strike. Union leaders like William Turnblazer, head of district 19, United Mine Workers, are confident that by midsummer Harlan County coal mines will be thoroughly unionized. They claim 000 members In 25 locals in the county today. Should unionization completed, much of the cause BOY SCOUT NEWS COMPILED BY U.

Still a Frontier Because Harlan county. is in the east, few people realize that it is still a "frontier" community.
