L CHICAGO, April 28 (fF) -The Illinois coal operators associa tion today requested the Illinois district of the United Mine Work ers of America to meet the group immediately, independent of Ap palachian negotiations under way in the east, to work out a new contract and keep the state's mines operating after the dead line Friday midnight. George F. Campbell, president of the operators, telegraphed State President Ray Edmundson of the UMWA, now in New York City, that the Illinois operators were denied the right to partici pate in the Appalachian confer ences in New York. Negotia tions are now before the war labor board in Washington, with the miners refusing to partici pate. Heretofore, Illinois operators and mine workers have awaited the outcome of the eastern ne gotiations before working out a separate contract..

The committee is inquiring in to a dispute involving Ickes, Undersecretary of War Patter son and Rubber Director Jeff ers over priorities granted the rub ber program. Wallops Listed Ickes listed these other "wal lops" he said the aviation gaso line program had suffered: "We did not receive any steel plate for new plants until March, 1942, and then it was delivered in a harum-scarum manner with out regard to the needs or rela tive urgencies of the separate projects. "While we persuaded the war production board to allocate the steel plate in May, 1942, and never had a bit of trouble with that thereafter, we were unable to persuade it to let us allocate the other materials, largely, I believe, because that would have been contrary to the then cur rent theories of the board which revolved around priorities rath er than scheduling. In the summer of 1942, the then authorities actually voted the aircraft production program and certain other military pro grams as of higher urgency than the program to produce fuel for combat planes. nigh Rubber In the early fall of 1942, we No. 1 Ace Ready w.i t . . ...

U. S. Cloans Arnum The Americans under Lieut. Gen. George S. Patton Jr., cleaned Col. Gen. Jurgen von Arnim's northern Germans and Italians out of Djezel Dardyss and occupied important high ground. Another contingent, pushing toward Jefna station, 28 miles southwest of Bizerte, swept the enemy off Djebel el Azzag north of Jefna and also took Djebel el Aired, lust to the southwest of the station. These two knobs command much of the approach to Mateur, the important axis crossroads 16 miles to the east of Jefna. , Djebel Dardyss taken by Americans in their northern thrust is about seven miles from the western shore of Lake Ach kel, the westernmost of two lakes which stretch to Bizerte. Barren-topped Djebel Ajred, nicknamed Bald Hill by the Brit ish, is one of the main defenses guarding the approaches to Ma teur. Djebel Azzag flanks Green hill which with Bald hill formed a double-humped barrier across the Mateur road. To the south, the British in the Medjerda valley were fighting within six miles of Tebourba, gateway to Tunis, and battling to take the last important high ground blocking their way to the Tunis plains.

The youth is the son of Jesse Wright who lives at Spring creek, one mile above Pine Ridge. endured more than a month in which all rubber projects were rated higher than all 100-octane plants. "While in December, 1942, we finally attained the mandatory scheduling of parts for certain plants, the directive then issued had to be shared with the rub ber program. "We were denied a similar mandatory directive covering the- plants scheduled to be fin ished in the second quarter of this year and, in addition to failing to receive much help, we suffered a positive hindrance in that the rubber program did re ceive such a directive." for More Action l.NM TtUphoto) Spring Showers .... ..u Rain In New Guinea made a lake of this American nldter't camp grounds which he ruefully surveys from bis pup tent.
