NICKERSON ELECTED EUGENE, June 24 W) Dell E. Nickerson of Portland, who joined the carpenters 'union in Portland years ago, was assured of reelection to another two-year term as executive secretary of the State Federation of Labor here today. F REMAIN IDLE (Continued From Page One) also was reported from Virginia. Kentucky and Illinois. At least 4000 of Illinois' 23.000 UMW members refused to resume work, an action which the union's vice president inter preted as a protest against the war labor board's denial of por tal-to-portal pay demands. Thousands Out Thousands of anthracite miners in eastern Pennsylvania also re fused to go back to their jobs. Reports from the field showed at least 23,000 of the hard coal in dustry's 83.000 miners idle. In cluding virtually all of the 15,- 000 employes of the Glen Alden Coal company, world's largest producer. One mine official said nhe tieup is general" in the Luzerne Lackawanna county area, in which more than half of the in dustry's workers are concen trated. Many of the mines that did open were compelled to oper ate with reduced forces. Vote Stoppage At least five UMW locals in the anthracite region, with a membership of more than 4000 voted formally to continue their work stoppage. A large portion of the 130,000 coal diggers in the biggest bi tuminous producing state. West Virginia, trooped back to the pits under the four months' truce which called off the third UMW strike without settlement of the contract dispute between the operators and union. Several mines were picketed in southwestern Pennsylvania yesterday but all was quiet in that area today and no further picketing was reported. The miners staying borne pro tested the lack of a contract, and the deadlock over the portal-to- portal pay issue which the war labor board said should be set tled in the courts. Some also noted the UMW policy commit tee, in ordering the membership back to the mines, set no date for work resumption. A union spokesman said at Washington today thhat the pol icy committee meant the miners should resume work immediate ly or as soon as physical con ditions permit, and that all dis trict officials knew this. The Pittsburgh Coal company, second largest commercial pro ducer, reported nearly 3000 men working today, as compared with 170 yesterday. More than half of its employes were still idle. All four mines of the Jones and Laughlin Steel corporation near Pittsburgh remained idle. PITTSBURGH, June 24 OP) The United States Steel corpor ation announced late today five glast furnaces will be forced to close down tomorrow due to the shortage of coking coal. Five others of the corporation's 37 district furnaces were closed earlier this wek. The ten fur naces turn out about 8000 tons of pig iron a day. Two Army Planes Crash, Burn Before Passenger Train SOUTHVILLE, Mass., June 24 (IP) Two army planes col lided and burst into flames at a high altitude today and one of them crashed directly in front of a six-coach passenger train, bound from Worcester to Boston, derailing the engine and five of the coaches. THOUSANDS 0 Dill TILL Calm Returning To Detroit After Rioting DETROIT, June 24 (TV Cur few and other restrictions im posed by Governor Harry F. Kelly on nearby Oakland and Macomb counties after race riot ing in Detroit this week were re moved todsy. Both counties In clude some Detroit suburban areas. Removal of these restrictions, announced by Governor Kelly after a conference with Mayor Edward J. Jeffries Jr. and Brig. Gen. William E. Guthner of the army's sixth service command, in charge of troops patrolling the city, restored normal activities in the two counties. All sales of bottled liquor by state stores and specially des ignated distributors still were prohibited, as was assembly of crowds on public streets and the carrying on weapons by any per sons other than the police or military authorities. Mayor Jeffries said he had recommended relaxation of the local restrictions after receiving a report from Police Commlsson- er John Witherspoon that the city was fast returning to nor malcy. Those who did the killing and looting in Detroit's race riot were hunted down relentlessly as the death toll climbed to 31. West Belgorod Action Stirs Speculation MOSCOW, June 24 M An assertion in the soviet midnight communique that Russian units had struck at German defense lines west of Belgorod, stirred the speculation of Moscow mili tary observers today, since the town, on the lower-central part of the front, long has been in German hands. Belgorod is 40 miles northeast of Kharkov, which also is held by the Germans. Whether the reported soviet action west of Belgorod means the Russians have captured it re cently, without making any pub lic announcement, or whether they merely slipped around the town for a quick thrust remains to be explained here. The war bulletin said that as a result of the fighting more than 200 Germans were killed. It de scribed the Russian attackers as a reconnaissance unit. Except for this sortie, the land front continued in its lull. The red air force kept up its de structive raids against enemy airdromes. (The soviet noon communique,' as recorded by the soviet radio monitor in London from a Mos cow broadcast, said there was only desultory action on the front last night). (The Thursday German com munique said there was only lo cal activity on the Russian front The German air force, it said, at tacked shipping in the Kuban delta lagoon area and in Lake Ladoga, sinking one vessel and 15 landing barges).

NEW BOMBING TECHNIQUE IN USE BY RAF (Continued From Page One) U. S. Flying Fortresses and Lib erators were among them. No Retracing Air observers said the most obvious advantage was that the raiders were able to land and reservice without retracting a course along which the enemy defense already had been alert ed by the outward passage. The Lancaster made a run of some 1230 miles each way, going 300 miles to Friedrlch shafen in southern Germany and presumably 750 miles more to the nearest North African bases. On the way back they winged about 550 miles to La Spezla and 700 home. Thus each trip was somewhat shorter than the regular 1400 miles round trip to La Spezia.- None of the planes was lost. Pick Up Offensive Formations of Allied planes picked up the offensive again in daylight. During the morn ing aircraft were heard over Folkestone, winging toward northern France and Belgium. Official air sources declined to speculate on whether the successful trial trips across Eur ope could be accepted as a pat tern tor tne future. Maj. Gen. James H. Doolittle's attack on Tokyo was a partial application of the principle. in that the U. S. bombers took off from a carrier and landed in China. The RAF feat aroiuwH lation as to whether the U. S. air forces misht sure imil.r raids. The range of the Flying fortresses and Liberators would make such runs possible at least across France to North Italy. several Squadrons Officially described only as "several sauadrons." which means at least several dozen planes the Lancaster force was strong enough to ravage three acres of the lmnortant rarfin lo cation equipment plant in the -eppeun works at Frlederlch s ha fen and also to severely dam age the Mavbach Werke motor plant on the way out. On the return trip the docks at La Spezia were bombed ac curately, the communique said, and stores of oil set afire. The La Spezia attack repre sented the first RAP ininli northern Italy since April 18, wnen a Big fleet of bombers hit the naval base there. LAST TIMES ij 2 TOP-NOTCH HITS!

He asserted also that "an ex traordinary lull" in ground fighting on the Russian front has occurred although the weath er has been highly suitable for military operations. There are indications. Slim son told a press conference that "the Germans are materially strengthening their forces in France." He idried that rein forcements are understood to be moving in "for the fascists in Italy." Stimson estimated that from 10 to 12 German divisions have been moved into France and sev eral to Italy. "They may or may not have been withdrawn from the Rus sian front." he said. "And they may have been reserves from central German'." He also reported that bomb ing raids over Europe in which large forces of nazi fighter plane have engaged American and Eng lish bombers indicated a concen tration of air fighter strength in western Europe. Stimson continued that reports showed that Germany is concen trating "large numbers of fighter planes for protection of military and industrial areas on the home front. Probably many were withdrawn from the eastern front which may be one reason for the lufl In operations there."
