He also set a hearing for February 20 to determine whether the directive should be continued for the full 80 days provided by the Taft-Hart ley act. 4. Keech also signed an order directing Lewis and his union to drop four major demands in fu ture negotiationa for a new con tract. This order waa requested by major coal operators and se cured by Robert N. Denham, chief counsel for the national labor rela tions board. Lewis Agrees fe New Talk Judge Keech also asked Lewis to resume bargaining in good faith. Lewis telegraphed major operators he would meet with them Wednesdsy. Some operator sources who asked not to be named said they believed their bargaining position has been strengthened because Judge Keen ruled ou four of Lew is' demands as possible unfair la bor practices. These demsnds were for: A-un-ion shop, a welfare fund for UMW members only, and clauses pro viding that miners work only when "able and willing." and for "me morial periods" which in the past have been used by Lewis for na tionwide strikes. Lewis fined with his union a total of $2,130,000 for violating somewhat similar court orders in 1946 and IMS told hia union aides he waa abandoning these demands. Keech had ruled them probably illegal under the Taft-Hartley law There is nothing to prevent Lew is from asking for more money Contracts which he haa signed with a small percentage of the op erators provide: A 95-cent day boost in the basic wage and a 15 cent increase in the royalty pay ments to the health and welfare fund. That brings the diggers earnings to $15 a day and the royalty payments to 35 cents a ton. Even stiffer money terms may be proposed by Lewis now that he haa been forced to abandon the four contract clauses, which he haa had in several previous labor contracts. Russia Stirs Hatrtd !

Five years ago the Western Press was enthusiastically de scribing the Allied air offensive against East Germany during this late period of the war as "blaring a path for the Red army." It was virtually ignored, how ever, by Soviet newspapers at the time. Some of the largest raids were never reported then for Rus sian readers. v LONDON, Feb. 13 (P) "The object of Russian policy ia to get control of Europe," British foreign secretary Bevin told political rally last night.
