I go back in my mind to that day during the war when we saw the Jap balloon, high ud over town and somewhat to the west. It wasn't too plain. You had to look Just right to see It. But when you did catch It with your eye, there It was, round and white, looking just like a Jap balloon ought to look. Excited groups gathered all over town to gaze. Here on our sidewalk at the Herald and News we hnd an especially large and excited crowd. By measuring on the corner of the adjoining build ing, we could get a line on it and spot It with comparative ease. Every time we'd get it spotted, we could feel the hair turn up on the backs ot our necks and the chills begin to chase each other up and down our spines. Then . ' A. B. Epperson, our accepted authority on things astronomical, came along. He took a squint. Then he fixed up a crude instru ment and took an observation, meanwhile checking carefully on his watch. Then he announced: "It's the planet Venus which at this time of the year is reasonably visible in full daylight." As T recall it, we were all quite chagrined. But that isn't all. We were TERRIBLY DISAPPOINTED, in the davs. I find I feel the same wav about a flying saucer tnat is oeiinitciy tucnuiicu m weather balloon. Aren't people funny?

Lewis reportedly has begun talks with a major part of the soft coal Industry, probably to lay the groundwork for full-scale contract negotiations. An Intormed aource. who Is In touch with the situation but de clined use of his name, said Wednesday, twls had his first conference with the industry Tues duy. The United Mlneworkera chief told the bituminous coal operators association July 23 that (he present mil coitl work contract would end Sept. Tl. Tho present contract has been open for termination on CD-day nullce by cither stile for several months. Barring a new contract, Lewis is consi'-lered certain to take his 450.000 miners out of the nation's soft coal pits on Sept. 33 If he lollowa past performances. His battle cry has alwnys been "no contract, no work." It was not known definitely who participated on the Industry aide but the obvious choice would be Harry M. Manes, president of the Bituminous Coal Operators Asso ciation and the man who does all the negotiating for association members. Theie operators represent about half of the annual soft coal ton nage mined by the UMW.
