    Lewis Gels Back
$2,800,000 of
Contempt Fine
United Mine Workers
Present $100,000 Check
To Telephone Strikers
Washington, April 24 VP)
John L. Lewis today got back
S2, 800, 000 of a $3,500,000 con
tempt fine imposed against his
United Mine Workers and
promptly contributed $100,000
to striking telephone workers.
Less than an hour after Fed
eral District Judge T. Alan
Goldsborough refunded the $2,
800,000 UMW officials arrived
at telephone strike headquar
ters with a check for the $100,
000 to help support the 18-day-old
cross-country tieup.
Injunction Still Alive
In refunding the $2,800,000
to the UMW, Goldsborough add
ed a warning that a preliminary
injunction prohibiting the min
ers from striking against the
government is still in force
and can be invoked at any
time."
Goldsborough fined the union
last December because it ignored
his order to call off a contract
termination notice Lewis had
served on the government.
The supreme court, on March
6, reduced the fine to $700,000
provided the union showed that
it had fully complied with
Goldsborough's orders.
Government Satisfied
It was reported today the gov
ernment is satisfied that the
union complied with the man
date by withdrawing the con
tract cancellation notice and by
distributing the word of the
withdrawal to its members. The
court was told that coal pro
duction has been "about nor
mal" since April 14. Lewis
called off the safety stoppage
at that time. It was ordered
originally on April 1, as a me
morial to 111 miners killed in
an explosion March 25 at Cen
tralia, 111.
A $10,000 fine which Golds
borough imposed last Decem
ber on Lewis individually al
ready has been paid and the
union promptly offered a certi
fied check today for its $700,-
000. It also submitted another
check for $35,000 representing
a one per cent poundage charges
on the $3,500,000 in bonds
which the union ' posted as se
curity for the fine.
The poundage charge for
keeping the bonds is required
under District of Columbia
law.
On the surface at least, the
proceeding appeared to wind up
the legal sparring in connec
tion with the government's pos
session of the soft coal mines
Death Date oi
OPA Set June 1
Washington, April 24 (fl)
OPA, its death date set offici
ally for June 1, estimated today
that about 2750 employes will
receive dismissal notices in the
next week.
An executive order by Presi
dent Truman fixed the windup
date for OPA and its two com
panion agencies in the office of
temporary controls the civilian
production administration and
the office of war mobilization
and reconversion.
'5 Most of the functions of the
three wartime agencies will be
transferred to other government
offices on May 4 under the pres-
idential directive issued yester
day.
To help carry on the duties to
be transferred, commerce will
take about 1200 employes from
OPA; 550 from CPA and 100
from OWMR. The housing ex
pediter will get about 6100 from
, OPA, while another 125 from
OPA will go to RFC.

Motors Rejects
Auto Workers
Wage Proposal
Detroit, April 24 (U.R)-Gencr-al
Motors corporation today re
jected a CIO United Auto Work
ers proposal for arbitration of a
dispute over division of a 15
cent hourly wage increase ac
ceptable to both parties,
GM and the union have agreed
in principle to the 15-cent boost
but disagree as to how it should
be paid. The UAW wants a flat
wage increase while the corpo
ration has offered to pay 'a
straight 11 'A cent raise plus the
equivalent of three and a half
cents in six paid holidays an
nually. .
Reuther's Proposal
UAW. President Walter P.
Reuther suggested last night that
the ll'A cent increase go into
effect immediately and that an
arbitration panel decide how the
remaining three and a half cents
shall be paid.
Today, General Motors reject
ed that proposal.
Harry W. Anderson, GM vice
president and corporation chief
negotiator with the UAW, said
in a letter to Reuther that Gen
eral Motors was "opposed to ar
bitrating matters which should
be settled by collective bargain
ing." Points Out Loss
"We consider our offer to be
extremely advantageous to the
employes represented by your
union," he said. "Delay in ac
ceptance is at their expense."
Anderson said that had the
UAW accepted the GM offer on
April 18, when it first was made,
General Motors employes rep
resented by the union would
have profited by some $8,000,000
between that date and May 31,
when the current contract ex
pires. Reduction in
Funds Decried
Washington, April 24 VP) The
phrase "sabotage of the west"
was used by Senator Taylor
(R-Idaho), today in describing
the interior department appro
priations bill recommended by
a house committee.
The committee reduced the
$295,420,420 requested by the
president to $156,538,513.
Taylor commented in an in
terview: "They chopped off slightly
below the head."
The committee's action, he
said, given no evidence that it
carefully considered each item
and the effect of reductions,
adding:
have thrown a wad of gum at
a wall chart with the pledge:
'Where the wad sticks that's
where we will cut.' "
He predicted the action will
hasten depression and retard de
velopment of the west many
years.
As an example, he cited the
committee's action on the Pali
sades project in eastern Idaho.
It was given $876,000 of a re
quested $2,629,000.
"At that annual rate of ex
penditure," he said, "it would
take 33 years to complete the
project. The bureau had ex
pected to finish it in five years.
"It's a good long-term proj
ect that way. A young man
could begin work on the dam
now and spend his whole life
on ust that one jdt.
He condemned the commit
tee's denial of funds to the Bon
neville Power Administration
for transmission lines, includ
ing one to serve North Idaho
farmers and one to reach the
phosphate beds in the southern
part of the state.
Both Tax and Debt Slashes
Possible Under Present Plans
Washington, April 24 VP) John W. Hanes, former undersecre
tary of the treasury, said today the nation could have both tax
reduction and debt reduction if congress proceeds with its "pres-
sent plan" of slashing President-
Truman's 1948 budget.
He urged, in a statement to
the senate finance committee,
that the income tax reduction
bill already passed by the house
be enacted speedily.
Hanes was one of the first
advocates of an income tax cut
invited to testify before the
committee which has devoted
two days to hearing government
officials criticize the bill.
Hanes told the committee:
"The general feeling that the
(federal) debt must be reduced
during this, period of prosperous
business is most wholesome. I
heartily agree. But to attempt
to pay off debt without reliev
ing the taxpayer of at least a
part of his excessive tax bur
den is wrong. It will defeat the
ZrsTi," Salem,
Long Distance
Lines Sabotaged
In Eleven States
Washington, April 24 VP) The
government today went after
a new formula for settling the
18-day-old telephone strike
amid reports that long distance
lines have been sabotaged in at
least 11 states.
The striking National Federa
tion of N Telephone Workers
quickly accepted an invitation
from Edgar L. Warren, federal
conciliation director, to renew
ed bargaining talks with three
strategic units in the Bell sys
tem. The only immediate accept
ance by the other side came
from the Southwestern Bell
Telephone company. The West
ern Electric company and the
long lines division of the Ameri
can Telephone and Telegraph
company said they would think
it over.
Phone Lines Cut
Between them the three units
employ about 93,000 of the 340,-
000 workers made idle by the
union walkout April 7 to en
force new contract demands in
cluding a $12 a week pay hike.
Complaints by telephone com
pany officials that lines have
been cut were heard in Tennes
see, Mississippi, Kentucky, Cali
fornia, South Carolina, Michi
gan, Wisconsin, Missouri; Okla
homa, Texas and Florida.
New Wage Pattern
The government hoped to
brijig peace through the new
negotiations by establishing a
settlement wage pattern which
might be acceptable for the en
tire chain of 29 Bell units.
But even officials of South
western Bell, in agreeing to be
represented in the new parley,
said "We are going with the
explicit understanding that no
cash offer will be made."
Joseph Beirne, president of
the NFTW, has said repeatedly
that it will take a pay increase
to get the union members back
on the job.
Injunction Secured
San Francisco, April 24 (fP)
Striking telephone workers in
northern California today were
prohibited by court order from
interfering with the use of tele
phones and from mass picket
ing. Superior Judge George W.
Shonfeld issued the temporary
order late yesterday, climaxing
a day in which telephone wires
were cut in San Francisco. Los
Angeles and San Diego. Paci
fic Telephone ai d Telegraph
company officials charged the
strikers with maliciously dis
rupting the service.
Union officials denied knowl
edge of the acts.
Fire Traps
11 Miners
Noranda, Que., April 24 (U.R)
One man was killed early to

mine about 40 miles east of here
and 11 men were reported trap
ped underground but believed
safe. Rescue crews went to work
to get them out.
The East Malartic is a gold

was overcome by smoke as he
attempted to force his way
through the flames from the

A call to nearby mines
brought 18 volunteers- who
went underground to rescue the
trapped men.
Sixteen men were at work
when the fire started. Four
reached the surface safely.

would find itself with a surplus
of $3,000,000,000 to $4,000,
000.000 at the close of the cur

today and noted tbey varied

Marines Stay
Says Patterson
Washington. April 24 (U.R)
Secretary of War Robert P. Pat
terson said today there was "no
foundation" to reports that the
Marine corps would be reduced
to a mere "dress parade" unit
under the proposed unification
of the armed forces.
He made the statement in
testimony before the house ex
ecutive expenditures committee.
The senate armed services
committee had called on him
and Secretary of Navy James
V. Forrestal to produce purport
ed "secret plans"' by the joint
chiefs of staff for reducing the
Marine corps.
Gen.. A. A. Vandergrift, Ma
rine corps commandant, testi
fied earlier in the week that
under the pending unification
plan the corps would be vir
tually wrecked as a combat
force.
Rep. Ross Rizley, (R-Okla),
asked Patterson about press re
ports so quoting Vandergrift.
"In my own opinion," Patter
son said, "I don't think there's
any reason for it. The Marine
corps is continued by the act it
self. It is covered in the same
way the army, navy and air
corps are covered."
Camp Offered
Problem Boys
Mrs. Nona White, county pro
bation officer, announced
Thursday, that a rancher near
Jefferson, who does not as yet
wish to have his name revealed
has offered a privately financed
camp for Marion county prob
lem boys and that she hopes to
see the plan carried out, the
main drawback now being find
ing the right kind of a woman
to cook at tne camp.
Location of the proposed
camp is on a river bank in a
mint growing section. The do
nor has purchased army camp
cots and equipment and can
handle up to 12 boys at a time.
The plan contemplates develop
ment of a mint growing proj
ect by the boys who would re
ceive wages and returns from
the project and in return would
work Dart time and the rest of
the time be afforded recreation
al privileges such as swimming,
tennis, horseback riding and
other games and amusements.
"The program as planned
will be very helpful this sum
mer if it can be worked out,"
commented Mrs. White. "The
proposed location is an ideal
one. The man in question has
two sons who have returned
from army service and are able
to take over his farm so he wi
be left free to supervise the
camp and handle the details
and he has made the offer in
the hope of being some help to
the boys. If we can find the
proper woman as a cook I am
confident the plan can be work -
ed out very beneficially."

Top Experts on
Palestine Due
Lake Success, N. Y., April
24 VP) Top experts on Palestine
problems converged upon Unit
ed Nations headquarters today
as the fast-working secretariat
completed plans for opening the
first U. N. special session on
Palestine next Monday.
Two major questions have
been put on the provisional
agenda upon which the as
sembly must decide by a two
thirds vote.
They arc: 1 A British re
quest for appointment of a spe
cial committee to prepare for
consideration of the Palestine
question at the regular session
in September.
2 Identical requests by the
five members of the Arab Lea
gue who are U. N. stales for
the special session to consider
termination of the British man
date over Palestine and the de
claration of Palestine's indepen
dence. The United States. Britain
and several other delegations
have indicated opposition to the
second item. They insist that
the special session must not go
into the questions itself beyond
appointing the investigating

CommiesAsked to
Help Expose Fascists
Washington, April 24 (IP)
Communists, who have been
getting rough handling from the
house committee on un-American
activities, were invited to
day to help the committee ex
pose fascists.
Rep. McDowell (R., Pa ), told
reporters that preliminary
checks by a subcommittee which
he heads show some revival of
fascist activities in America. He
said there is evidence of it in
Georgia, New York, Chicago,
parts of Texas and southern
California.
And he added that he will ex
tend a formal invitation to com
munists to supply any informa
tion they may have, since they
are always "screaming" about
it.
The trouble, McDowell said,
"is that they consider evcry-
1 thing that isn't communist fas
cist."

On Foreign Aid
Washington, April 24 VP)
Congress showed signs today of
scckin ga global blueprint of
its own on foreign relief needs
and American ability to meet
them.
That was the situation as the
house delayed until next week
decision on the administra
tion's $350,000,000 measure to
do part of the relief job in Eu-
ope and China.
Delay Relief Action
The house abruptly hailed its
consideration of the measure
yesterday in the midst of (a)
protests against "excessive"
drains on the treasury, (b) de
mands that congress first find
out the final amount to be need
ed, and (c), a controversy over
banning any aid to communist
dominated nations.
The interruption was ordered
to give priority consideration,
beginning today, to the sharply
pruned measure carrying ap
pripriations for the interior de
partment. Meanwhile, however, the pow
erful house rules committee was
taking these two important steps
of its own:
House Program
1. It approved a measure to
set up a 15-member house com
mittee with broad powers to
study relief needs and the do
mestic and international sources
to meet them. Such a study was
proposed by Rep. Herter (R
Mass), close friend and one'
time relief associate of former
President Herbert Hoover.
2. It ordered a hearing Mon
day to determine the procedure
for bringing to the floor some
time next week the senalc-ap
proved measure t o bolster
Greece and Turkey against en
croaching communism with
$400,000,000 worth of supplies
and limited military aid.

John Collins, assistant military
attaches held prisoner by the
Chinese communists since March
1, were released in good health
today.
The two American 'officers
reached Changchun five hours
after their release by the com
munists at noon. The release was
made by prior arrangement at
Hung-Fangtze, 10 miles north of
the edge of the Nationalist
bridgehead over the Sungari riv
er. Brig. Robert Soulc, tile Amer
ican military attache, said both
Rigg and Collins were in good
health after their 55-day deten
tion. Rigg is from Chicago and Col

Moscow, April 24 VP) The four-power conference of foreign
ministers in session since March 10, ended today In disagreement
on all major German and Austrian issues.
U.S. Secretary of State Marshall expressed disappointment that
tile council had failed to reach agreement on the Austrian treaty
and the American-proposed four-power pact to keep Germany
disarmed.
The next meeting was set for London in November, but there
was a possibility that the foreign ministers might meet earlier in
New York, during a session of the United Nations general asse-m
bly.
At last night's session, at which Marshall declared that if an
Austrian peace treaty remains uncompleted in September the
United States would favor tossing the question into the lap of
the United Nations, the ministers finally disposed of many long-
debated issues blocking agree-
ment on a peace treaty for Ger
many. The disposition, for the
most part, however, consisted of
referring the questions either to
the deputy foreign ministers or
the four-power control council
in Berlin. American sources
said neither group could solve
the major problems on which
the council of foreign ministers
itself had fallen clown.
Ends with Banquet
The conference ended tonight
with a banquet given at the
Kremli n by Generalissimo
Stalin.
Secretary of State George C.
Marshall will leave for Wash
ington by plane tomorrow morn
ing barring unexpected last min
ute developments. Apparently
only large and unexpected So
viet concessions could cause a
change in the windup plans.
Stalin's First Meeting
The final business session was
perfunctory. After that, the
delegates went to the Kremlin
for the state banquet. It will
be Stalin's first meeting of the
seven-week conference with the
visiting ministers in a group.
He has talked with each of them
privately.
The first large group of the
American delegation will fly to
the United States tomorrow
afternoon. Special trains are
waiting to carry the British and
French delegations home.
Blames Molotov
Ten men from each visiting
delegation were Stalin's dinner
guests. The dinner began at
8:30 p.m. (12:30 p.m. EST).
Marshall blames Molotov for
the ministers' failure to reach
any major concrete agreements
on Austria and Germany dur
ing their seven weeks of debate.
He charges the Russians with
widening rather than narrowing
tne at iterances on Austria
Molotov accused the United
States of "obstructing" progress
by refusing to consider the So
viets' blanket amendments to
the American draft of a four
power German disarmament
treaty.
Biggest Battle

Athens, April 24 (U.R) Greek
press reports said today that the
year's biggest battle was raging
at Orthris mountain, north of
Lamia in central Greece with re
gulars striking at forces under
the direct command of top guer
rilla chieftain "General" Markos
Vifiadcs.
According to newspaper dis
patches, Greek regulars of the
first and second corps clashed
yesterday morning with 1000
guerrillas, driving Ihcm toward
mountain heights in fighting
which was still going on. Sixty
three guerrilla bodies were pick
ed up after the first few hours'
action, accounts said.
One guerrilla body was that of
their Thcssaly leader, Capitanos
Faros. Greek planes made di
rect attacks on one position and
left 33 guerrillas dead and 40
wounded.
Deputy Prime Minister Con-
stanlin Tsaldaris said he had re
ccived reports indicating only 20
of 150 gendarmes survived an
ambush near Sparta yesterday.
ilh a cry of "more money for

43 percent slash in the interior
consideration of amendments ex
pected to come tomorrow.
The 43 percent slash voted by
the committee brought angry
outbursts from westerners,
whose reclamation projects
would feel it most.
Secretary of Interior J. A.
Krug charged the action would
run the nation into "bankruptcy
of its natural resources."
Republicans from the 1 1 rec
lamation states met twice to con

? Priorities On
Surplus to Go
Washington, April 24 (Pi
War Assets Administrator Rob
ert N. Littlejohn today asked
congress to wipe out by Decem
ber 31 priorities on all purchases
of surplus property except real
estate.
The proposal, designed to
speed surplus sales, would elimi
nate preference now given vet
erans, states and local govern
ments and non-profit institu
tions such as schools and hos
pitals. Rising national production
will make it unnecessary to
keep priorities in force beyond
the year-end, Littlejohn said.
idding: "It should be borne in
mind that priority claimants are
interested almost exclusively in
'short supply' items.
By December 31, the resi
due of 'short supply' items will
be extremely small. This will
be due both to reconversion and
accelerated disposal."
Real property includes plants,
glazing and farm lands, and
fixed military installations. In
these cases, however, Littlejohn
said the 90-day period in which
real property is held for its
former owners should be cut to
30 days.
No Decline in
Meat Prices
Washington, April 24 (A) '
The agriculture department pre
dicted today that meat supplies
will not be large enough to cause
a material price decline unless
there is a business recession.
Latest reports indicate, the
agency said, that consumer de
mand for meat probably is at
a record level despile current
prices. Consumption during the
January-March quarter was said
to have been the greatest for the
period in at least 35 years, or at
the rate of more than 150 pounds
per person a year.
The department said total pro
duction of meat this year prob
ably will be somewhat greater
than last year, but not enough
greater to pull down prices no
ticeably unless there is a rather
sharp decline in consumer buy
ing power.

Nine other Gestapo men were
convicted of participating in the
Nazi razing of the little Bohem
ian village and the slaughter of
its men. They were sentenced
to prison terms ranging from
nine to 30 years. One other was
convicted, but no sentence pro
nounced as yet.
Lidice, destroyed in 1942, in
reprisal for the assassination of
