LEWIS RIDICULES EFFORTS
TO BREAK UP COAL STRIKE
BY IMPORTING WELSH COAL

New York. July 26.-Importation or
British-mined bituminous coal TO
avert a fuel famine among American
Industries is so apparently futile
and aboard as to constitute a huge
ioke," John L. Lewis, president OF
the United Mine Workers of America
assterted today. '.They tell me 5OO,-
600 tons of coal already has been
contracted for at the mines in Wales,
he said enough to keep the miners
in America digging just two and a
half hours of a day of average pro-
duction.
%When it is realized that the
normal requirements of this country
are 100000 tons a week, while the
utmost loading capacity of all docks
on the American seacoast is less than
25. 900 900 tons a year, it becomes
apparent how farcial are attempts To
break the miners strike with for
eign fuel" 49,,
Mr.. Lewis said he had not been
in communication with England union
leaders or sought any agreement with
Welsh miners which would result IL
refusal to load union dug coal tol

The stage is all set for the Lakeland
Plant City Kiwanis baseball game
which is scheduled to furnish the
amusement at Plant City Thursday
afternoon, the game being called for
$3.50.
Captain-Manager Tad Haynes has
had the Lakeland team out every af-
ternoon, giving them a stiff workout
and from the vast amount of material
which has been developed, announces
the following as his tentative lineup
for the game tomorrow:
Froemke or Garner, pitcher
Bloom, catcher.
Petteway, first base.
Armistead, second base.
Good, shortstop.
Merrill, third base.
Haynes (captain), centerfield.
Nicholson, right field.
Sanford, left field.
And the substitutes will be made up
from the following: Carver, Hitler,
Mckay and Moscowitz.
A general feeling of dissatisfaction
over the rotten umpiring of Lonnie
Wright and H. T. Miller, who officiated
at Lakeland last Thursday in the Ro-
tary-Kiwanis game, has caused man
ager Haynes to insist that the Lake
land Kiwanis Club be granted the
privilege of bringing with them an
umpire of their own, one from theil
own membership in whom the mer
have confidence and who will give
them all close decisions and the bes
of everything.
Parson Hitler, who was denied the
privilege of playing in the Rotary
Kiwanis game, has avowed his inten
tion of participating in the coming
fracas for at least two innings, whicl
the Parson claims will be ample TIM
in which to demonstrate his marked

not rendering d real service to the
city as a whole and is biased and
in his ideas and in his
service, then it may well be regarded
that he is not a suitable man for the

recalled.

The charter expresses a desire 1or

If the charter carries, there will be
created a city commission, consisting
of three qualified Xoters who are
elected at large to serve for a term
of three years. Provision was made
that these commissioners would be
elected at large for the reason that
il has come to be well known that
ward lines make for partisan politics
and sectional differences. The charter
board believes that II it were not
possible for the voters of Lakeland
to select three men who are imbued
enough with the spirit of unselfish
service and who were possessed OF
a big, broad vision of the city as

plight, and not entitled to consider
