S. troops continued mop ping up stragglers who hid in the junglematted hills. The navy did not say whether the enemy group were stragglers or a military patrol put ashore perhaps to scout American de fenses .as a prelude to a new Japanese offensive. Fliers Blast A navy . communique said American fliers blasted enemy positions in widespread attacks through the Solomon Archipel ago, raiding Kahili in the Short lands, Kolombangari and Munda. Allied warplanes, breaking through a strong screen of Jap anese Zero fighters, violently at tacked Japanese barracks, han gars and seaplanes at the former Dutch naval base of Amboina 600 miles north of Australia, Gen. Douglas MacArthur's head quarters said today. Three of 15 Japanese Inter ceptors were shot down or dam aged, a communique -said, and the entire formation of U. S. Liberators returned safely. Timor Hit Coupled with this attack, Dutch-manned Mitchells set fires at Koepang, capital of Dutch Timor. Other allied planes struck at the Tanimbar islands and New Guinea. " On the Burma front, British headquarters reported that sharp local fighting erupted along the Bay of Bengal coast, with alter nate attacks and counterattacks by Japanese and British troops,, but the situation as a whole re mained unchanged. i RAF warplanes bombed and atrafed Japanese troops, attacked villages around tne oig enemy base at Akyab, and hit rail lines, river steamers and other targets.

AMERICANS SMASH (Continued From Page One) road to Mateur. Fields and roads about green and bald hills there were found sown with hundreds of mines and booby traps. A military spokesman said the American forces launched an at tack four miles east of Sidi N'Sir against German gun emplace ments on hill 601 Djebel Tahent which dominates the valley extending 16 miles north eastward to the Mateur road junction, but met strong resist ance and failed to reach the sum mit. Counter Attacks Nazi troops counterattacked repeatedly against U. S. lines south of the hill, but all the thrusts were repelled. Gen. Sir Bernard Montgom ery's eighth army mounted a local attack on the southern front and gained its objective, the communique announced, adding that "an enemy counter attack in this sector achieved slight success." German tanks and infantry struck heavily again at first army lines in the Medjez-el-Sector, but the communique said that, with the exception of one small gain by the enemy in the Medjerda river area, all attacks "were repulsed with heavy loss to the enemy and our forward positions were maintained.

Also, it was pointed out, the WLB sometimes "uncertifies" cases, returning them to the con ciliation service when panel hearings develop that successful bargaining still is possible. How ever, even a negotiated wage agreement has to go to the WLB under the wage stabilization pro gram. John L. Lewis, UMW presi dent, made public the reply after a session of the international policy committee of the union. Lewis handed newsmen the text of the committee's message to the president without comment, and declined to answer ques tions. Voluntary Stoppage Several union district presi dents who are members of the policy committee and who were interviewed after the meeting said the telegram meant that in the absence of an agreement there would be a voluntary stop page of work in the mines at midnight tonight when the president-extended contract ex pires. Any walkout would affect ap proximately 450,000 soft coal miners in the Appalachian joint conference. The UMW always has taken the position that they never work without a contract. and Lewis has said during the wage negotiations which began early last month that in the ab sence of an agreement the miners would not trespass on mine property. WLB Told The message said in part that the war labor board "would and could not do other than to apply its fixed mathematical measur ing device to the existing wage structure of the bituminous coal industry, and deny our every re quest." "We maintain," the message asserted, "that such a conclusive action conceivably would not be a, decision , based upon the equities of the miners' case. Ad. mittedly it is in contravention of the very principles of equity and justice upon which American justice is predicated and which makes of our courts the great free institutions they are. "It turns a deaf ear to the pleas of a half-million of Amer ica's finest industrial soldiers, and their several million de pendent wives and children who daily find their living standards being lowered to the point of despair by mounting prices of foodstuffs and the essentials of life." SPRINGFIELD, 111., April 30 (IP) There will be no strike by Progressive Mine Workers of America, the union's policy con vention decided here this after noon, voting to continue con tract negotiations with opera tors for 30 days. The union, an AFL affiliate, claims, to repre sent 21,000 miners in Illinois and Kentucky. SEATTLE, April 30 (7P) Washington state's 2450 soft coal miners will cease work at midnight if no agreement is reached in the Appalachian soft coal industry dispute, Richard Francis, district secretary-treasurer for the United Mine Work ers, announced today.

The Germans were rported to be moving up reinforcements, munitions and supplies in all sectors, but nazl train and truck communications were being struck heavy blows by the red airmen, and in places where Rus sian artillery could lay down their shells the big guns were pounding the German concentra tions, it was said.

The President has It on his sldo In this threatened coal strike. John L. HASN'T. THE coal miners' weekly earn A ings are rather low as present war wages go running not much in excess of $40 a week. But they're working only five seven-hour days, or a 35-hour basic work week. It's pretty hard to earn war wages on such short hours. The 35-hour work week is de signed to SPREAD WOIIK in periods of depression not for the all-out production mudc necessary by war needs. THE sport world Is all twittered derby. Which is doubtless as It should be. Going around with long facet doesn't necessarily win wars.
