Public Law 339 of the 81st Con gress gives added payments to such veterans if they have wives, children or dependent parents.

Such records must be In the Vet erans administration files- before the new payments can start. The state board of health will furnish such records to the VA or the state veterans' department without cost if they are to be used in connection with benefits paid by the VA.

Bridges WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 UP) -Senator Bridges (R-NH) asked today for a court audit of opera tions of the coal miners' welfare fund since he has been one of its trustees. When that has been done- and his own actions as a trustee have been reviewed, he asked the U.S. district court here to. let him get off the board. Bridges' petition to the court was in some degree his response to a plea by Ezra Van Horn, former coal operator member of the board, to be absolved of any responsibility for the way the multi-million dollar welfare fund has been administered: Van Horn, separately answer ing a mine pensioner's suit for an accounting of the fund, accused Bridges and the third trustee, John L. Lewis, of "dissipating" the money. Van Horn told the court Bridges and Lewis had in effect frozen him out In the mak ing of decisions and contended he had even been denied infor mation about what had been done with money from the fund. The fund is financed by a 20 cents per ton royalty on aoft coal, paid by the operators. Lewis rep resents the United Mine Work ers on the board. Van Horn, until he resigned and was replaced by Charles I. Dawson, Louisville, Ky., lawyer, spoke for the operators. Bridges j was the "neutral" trustee. Fresh pears make a delicious salad.

Ching, Operators Furious It amounted to a sharp slap in the face to Cyrus Ching, federal mediation "chief, It left him, too, pretty much in the position of the parson when the bride-to-be doesn't show up for the wedding. Ching was there, fuming. The soft coal operators were there, fuming. But no Lewis. In fact, it was something of a mystery where Lewis was. Aides of the union leader said they did not itnow. Ching was plainly burned up. First, he fired a telegram to United Mine Workers headquar ters asking Lewis for "clarifica tion." But he didn't even know whether Lewis would see it. Then Ching delivered a report to the White House that Lewis had coolly turned down a bid to a peace conference. Ching called for his car and sped to the White House himself to make the report. Instead of a comment, the president said of Lewis: His picture is there on the front page of the Washineton Post. Take a look at it. The Post picture was an AP wirephoto of a glowering Lewis in inicago. Mr. Truman was asked' if he thought the steel settlements would have been reached and the coal strike called off at least temporarily if the Taft-Hartley act had not been hanging over me unions. The president, who wants the Taft-Hartley law reDealed. said he couldn't say. He suggested that ine question oe put up to manage ment and labor negotiators. Ching told reporters he had received this reply to his wire to Lewis : "Ching. Department 1 abor, wasningion, u. u. Your wire. Mine workers' reDre- sentation will be your office 2:30 o ciock Monday. "Lewis. Uhicaeo. Illinois." Ching said he had asked Lewis for a clarification" because he said Lewis' message "appears not to De responsive to the federal invitation. lhe conciliation serv ce salrt tnat the Lewis telegram, althoueh signed Chicago, had been sent irom tne Washington office of tne united Mine Workers. Lewis "and his 200-man policy committee had beer, in Chicago all week. It was there that he suddenly called off the 52-day coal strike yesterday, ordering his miners back to work until Nov. 30. Lewis: presumably left Chicago yesterday. Newsmen there saw him leave his hotel, engage a taxi and heard him direct the driver to take him to a railroad station. - There 'was speculation that he may have gone to Springfield, 111,-, where his 91-year-old mother is seriously ill. Some of Ching's associates were frankly 'dumbfounded by Lewis' cavalier treatment of Ching's in vitation to the conference this morning.
