ITrumah AideIine Chief Hit 2 Candidacy of Senator Taft WASHINGTON. Sept lMSV John I Lewis told Ohio coal mine owners today his United Mine workers may quit work in any mine Senator Taft. visits in his campaign for reelection. The mine workers chief blasted the Ohio republican in a letter brimming with invective. Lewis advised the mine owners to "re fuse him (Taft) entry to mines wbere Americans tott." His letter, addressed to the president of the Ohio Coal Opera tors association, B. Livingston Ireland, Cleveland, read: "Dear Mr. Ireland: . "Taft'i secret political handlers propose to have him enter coal mines to cozen the men under ground. This will be bad from the Standpoint of coal production. , Taft was born encased in vel vet pants, and has lived to rivet aa Iron collar around the necks of fnniion of Americans. He Is the relentless, albeit witless, tool - at the oppressors of labor. I "You should refuse him entry to. mines where Americans toil. The underground workings are necessarily confined and the air thrrt" is easily contaminated. The effluvia of the oppressor is over disagreeable and could en rage the men to a point of evacu ation of the mine. This we would both deplore. "Yours truly, John I Lewis." Lewis has long been a bitter exponent of Senator Taft, partly - tor the tatter's co-authorship of the Taft-Hartley labor law. At Pittsburgh where he was at tending a conference, Ireland said he had not yet received the letter from Lewis and could not corn vent on it until he did.

Taft (R.-Ohio) in November. He asserted before the Ameri can Federation of Labor conven tion that the Ohioan "cannot be trusted" with a role in the world crisis. Taft is co-author of the Taft-Hartley labor act. Harriman said communist ob jectives would have been fur thered if congress had carried out some of Taft's positions. "We no longer can afford to leave in positions of high respon sibility men who fail to recognize that American leadership is es sential to the peace of the world. Harriman said. Taft, informed of Harriman's statements, said in Columbus, O.: "They seem to be name calling and not down to facts. He (Harri man) was addressing an AFL convention, and I suppose that kind of talk might have been po pular there.' Senate Republican Leader Wherry of Nebraska said in Washington Harriman was try ing to blame others for the ad ministration's "betrayals." Wher ry said Harriman was using "an old Russian dodge to charge one's own guilt to others." Harriman departed from his prepared speech to say Sen. Mc Carthy (R-Wis) is "playing right into the hands of the commun ists." McCarthy, called at an Ameri can Legion rally here last, night for the resignation of Secretary of State Dean Acheson. He said General George C Marshall, as secretary of defense, "will follow Acheson's orders." President Truman, in a message to the. convention, expressed con fidence American workers will "go all out" to expand production So we can arm ourselves and help arm the free world." "In this1 way," he said, "we will make the United States and the democratic nations powerful enough to meet the challenge of communist imperialism that today is a world menace." The message was read by George Meaner , secretary-trea surer of the union. It said labor groups are "absolutely' right" in opposing the Taft-Hartley labor act. "It should be repealed in the interest of the working men and women," Mr. Truman said. . South Koreans Move to Front in New Drive . V .
