Mine Owners Urge Federal Force To Up Coal Output MINE OWNERS .... 18 inside WASHINGTON, Jan. 7 -Am Forty-live additional mine owner groups Thursday asked the National Labor Relations board to (ry to force miners back on a full work week by court injunction. Operator groups representing practically the entire soft coal industry now have filed unfair labor practice charges against John L. Lewis and asked for court action. The coal groups filing charges Thursday included those from Illinois, the Far West, and major "captive" mines owned by steel companies. The steel firms include Beth lehem, Republic, Jones and Laughlin, Inland, Crucible, and Armco. The operators want Robert N. Denham, general counsel of the NLRB, to seek a court order against Lewis to compel him to bargain for a new contract and to end the present Lewis-ordered three-day work week. The operators turned to Den ham after failing to get the WhHe House to order an injun tion effort under the Taft-Hartley law. President Truman indicated at a news conference Thursday that he is sticking to his hands off policy in the coal situation. He had no comment on a re ported appeal from St. Louis un. ging him to use his full authority to bring about full operation of the mines. The appeal, a reporter said, was made by a St. Louis citizens fuel committee and the St. Louis Retail Coal Dealers association. The president said he had not why be a ' dial jockey ?

Honest Day's Work To Be "Must," AFL Warning PORTLAND, Jan. 7 OP) Craftsmen will have to put in an honest day's labor from now on, Ivor T. Jones, AFL secretary of Oregon Carpenters, said hero yesterday. He told the AFL shingle weavers' district convention that he expected an active construc tion year with much competi tive bidding. "It means that more efficiency will be demanded of labor, that the gravy (rain . has gone by. Labor will be expected to put out a day's work for a day's pay," Jones said. The Raymond, Wash., local local submitted a resolution cal ling for an employer-financed pension of $100 monthly after 20 years' service for workers 65 years old. It will be considered later. seen the message, he said it probably was sent to the press, and not to him. He said if he got it and it was entitled to an answer, he would answer it.

O'Leary, 24, lies In a room fill ed with varieties of cure and piled high with letters from friends. The spasms come every second. It all started after an opera tion for a . ruptured appendix.

Of chief concern is his inability to retain food for longer than five minutes. "It's a race between stopping the hiccups and slow starvation, says his mother, Mrs. Margaret O'Leary. "We've prayed and prayed. That's about all we have left." But O'Leary Is optimistic: "They'll stop," he says, "but I hope It's soon. You've no idea how tiresome it gets."
