Soft Coal
Men Ponder
Lewis Plan
WASHINGTON. Feb. S8 11
Soft coal mine owners sought an
answer to John L. Lewis' pension
demand Friday to head off a pos
sible new contract crisis.
Lewis, as head of the t'nited Mine
Workers, has proposed using the
miners' welfare and retirement fund
to pay $100 a month to coal differs
60 years old who have worked 20
years in the pits.
The fund Is trowing from 10
cent a ton royalty under terms of
last year's one year contract.
The operators insist the Lewis
demand would require a much big
ger contribution perhaps 60 cents
a ton, some say.
Lewis made his proposal to the
trustees of the fund. He is one
trustee. The neutral member,
Thomas E. Murray, quit. The op
erators' representative is Esra T.
Van Horn.
It was Van Horn who called to
days meeting- of his colleagues on
what once as a nationwide nero-tlating-
committee.
The committee was abandoned
durlnr Lewis' scuffle with the rov
ernment In the injunction action
against his strike of November-December
1946.
The producers are known to be
fearful of another mine shutdown
this sprlnfr.
The UMW contract with the soft
coal industry expires June 30.

Edmund O Brown. San Francisco

Snow Storm
Whips Basin
An hour-long storm which
whipped the Klamath basin before
midnight last night, left three
inches of snow on the ground and
this section experienced its second
blast of winter in a week's time.
Last Sunday an afternoon storm
disrupted power and lashed the
area, but winter, in its eccentric
mood, slipped a 61-degree day into
the middle of the week. CAA re
corded that spring-like temperature
on Wednesday.
At noon today skies were clear
and a warming sun was melting
much of last night's snow. The
weatherman forecast "clear" for
the week-end.
The Klamath Falls state high
way shops advised a 10-inch snow
fall last night on Hayden moun
tain of the Greensprings highway;
eight Inches fell on Sun mountain
of highway 97, four inches of new
snow fell on the Wilktmette pass
and the same amount' on Quartz
mountain of the Lake view high
way, but double that covered the
Drews Creek area on the other side
of the mountain. Plows and sand
ing crews were working through
out the district.
