Meantime there were reports of imminent developments in con tract negotiations between John L. Lewis and some segments of the soft coal industry. However, Charles O'Neill, a spokesman for negotiating Referendum petitions aimed at laws passed by the Mate legisla ture this year must be filed by 5 p. m. Friday. July 4, Attorney General George N e u n e r ruled Tuesday. Neuner informed Secretary of State Robert S.
