SAN FRANCISCO, May 12 (AP)
—The five-weeks-old telephone
strike in the far west ended Mon
day, to all practical purposes, as
the last of the important telephone
unions ratified- settlement terms.
Following an earlier back-'to
work vote by the CIO American
Communications association, the
United Brotherhood of Telephone
Workers late in the day ratified a
contract offered by the five-state
Pacific Telephone & Telegraph
company and prepared to man their
jobs at once.
Only the National Federation of
Telephone Workers remained on
strike, but in northern California
and Nevada and much of the rest of
the Pacific coast the union had little
or no representation.
Another joint meeting between
the company and the NFTW was
scheduled for 10 a.m. Wednesday,
federal conciliators announced.

Wallace Asks
Socialization
Of Coal Mines
MINNEAPOLIS, May 12 (AP) —
Henry A. Wallace said Monday
that “the time has come to nation
alize the coal industry under some
type of coal authority.
The former vice president said
that "the world needs for coal are
so great that neither the obduracy
of the operators nor the stubborn
will of John L. Lewis should be al
lowed to cause the suffering and
paralygis which would result from a
coal strike-.”
In a speech prepared for delivery
| at a meeting sponsored by the
Democratic-Farmer Labor party of
Minnesota and the New Republic,
of which he is editor, Wallace said
that in the 20’s he told farmers they
were “entitled to moral, legal and
economic equivalent of what the
corporate form of organization
gives to industry.”
