Needs W. L. B. Approval The separate agreement must be approved by the War Labor board which called a public hear ing today on ull the phases of the entire row. Lewis, who has ignored the WLB, conceded that the settlement was subject to "all properly authorized government agencies." With WLB approval the pact could form a basis for general peace in the coal fields, disrupted twice by walkouts in recent weeks. One obstacle, affecting every consumer of coal, stood in the way of final settlement. Lewis said the Pennsyvania pact was contingent "on necessary approv al of prices permitting the agree ment to become eneciive. in other words, the operators con sent to hike wages it they can get more money per ton. Secretary IcKes saia today tnat miners who participated in the June 1-7 walkout from govern ment operated pits would be fined in accordance with their contracts, which usually pro vide penalties of $1 per day if a miner fails to work without good reason. Ickcs acted as federal boss of the mines. Strikers Face Fines Most of John L. Lewis' 530,000 odd United Mine Workers were out from June 1 through June 5, making them liable for fines of S3 each for the five-day absence from the mines. Under the con tracts, the penalty money goes to selected charities. Ickes, adding that fines would again be levied if another walk out takes place before or after the present truce ends at mid night, June 20, declared that be fore last week's walkout "we told the miners we were going to fine them if they went out again." The fines, he said, will be taken out of the next pay envelopes is sued to the miners since, he re ported, their latest wage pay ments alrcndv had been made r Ei Famed World War I Sergt. Alvin York has plenty of cousins in the service, and now his eldest son is in uniform. Pvt. George Edwin York, 19, above, was studying for the ministry when called. when the walkout started June 1. Although the UMW contends no contract was in force after midnight, May 31, Ickes said the fines would be levied under the terms of the contracts because he had declared in taking over the mjnes for the government April l mat the contracts were being extended indefinitely pending agreement on a new contract. The government mine boss de clined to say whether he would recommend an increase in price ceilings which reportedly would be called for to put into effect a tentative agreement on a new contract by Lewis and some Pennsylvania soft coal operators.

In another clash, the Yugo slavs were said to have surround ed and virtually wiped out a Ger man battalion in two days of fighting ending June 1 in the Serbian mountain region of Gu cevo,,near the Drina river. The voluble Rome radio in a welter of words during the night, indicated that the Pantelleria gar rison was under orders to resist, declaring that allied appeals for its surrender hid been scorned by Its defenders "proudly accept ing all privations and sacrifices." Czechs See Retribution. Meantime, throughout the re mainder of Hitler's European fortress there were continued stirrings of resistance as the Czechs recalled today was the first anniversary of the massacre of Lidice, when an entire village was destroyed by the Germans for having harbored the assassins of Reinhardt Heydrich, reich's protector for Bohemia and Mo ravia. "Mussolini is beginning today to suffer the consequences of his cruellies and treacheries," Czech comment ran. "It must be a dis mal, fearful anniversary for him. Tomorrow it will bo Hitler's turn to feel the crushing blow of jus tice."
