tical, or industrial, union in the
mines and that for purposes of COL
lective bargaining the United Mine
Workers should be recognized as
that union. They had not, he said,
been able to work out the details
for carrying that into effect, which
he thought very interesting factor.
The Presidents obvious insistence
was such that many were left
wondering whether, if an agreement
were not forthcoming by tomorrow
night or very soon thereafter, he
would intervene more definitely. In
response to question on that point,
Mr.. Roosevelt said only that he was
not looking that far ahead.
O'Neil Speaks for Operators.
The union officials and coal men
agreed to try, he said, adding that
they would resume conversations
with DR.. Steelman and that he,
himself, was not taking over any
part Of the job. The group left later
for New York, planning to go into
conference with DR.. Steelman today.
Mr.. Lewis headed the union group
and Charles O'Neil spoke for the
operators.
The deadlock, or failure to agree
on terms for renewing the union
contract which expired April l.,
has resulted in closing coal mines in
26 States. It has made some 46O, 900
coal miners idle and raised the
threat in many sections of an early
coal shortage.
A prime obstacle to agreement has
been the unions insistence upon
what Lewis calls a union shop" and
elimination from the new contract
of penalties In case of strikes or
lockouts. The operators have in
sisted that the penalty clause was
necessary to stabilize the industry.
They also contend it would deprive
them of protection against illegal
strikes.
While Mr.. Roosevelt said there
was agreement on wages and hours,
Lewis had said last night that such
was not the case. The union, he
said, had offered to accept the wage
hour rates of the old contract if the
operators would accept elimination
Of the penalty clause, or union

recalled that he acted upon emer-
gency powers left over from World
War days, when the Government
administered the coal industry.
However. Secretary of Labor
Perkins. who invited the coal con-
ferees to meet with the President
yesterday, said Monday night that
unless an agreement to reopen the
mines was made quickly, the Gov
ernment would take "a practical
course to get the coal moving" She
did not say what that course might
be.
John L. Lewis, U. M. w. A. and
c. I. o. president, had charged that
the Roosevelt administration had
declined earlier Ito approve or sus-
tain the mine workers offer to keep
the industry in operation"
1t was thought last night, however,
that Mr.. Lewis might oppose tenta-
tive agreement to reopen the mines
at this juncture because resumption
of operations might deprive the min
ers of a tactical advantage.
Farley Held in Office.
So far as negotiations for a long
term contract were concerned, the
Presidents Intervention did not ap-
pear to have removed the main OBJ
Stacle to an agreement, though he
seemed to minimize it's bulk.
The Presidents request to reopen
the mines was made at a conference
in his Office, attended by leaders of
the mine workers, mine operators
and Secretary of Labor Perkins. Mr..
Roosevelt advised newsmen later
that he had told the disputants that
the public good damands an imme-
diate resumption of mining, and that
by tomorrow night they should work
out a method for reopening the
mines.
The President spoke with unusual
vigor and emphasis as he informed
the reporters of the conversation, his
voice rising to an indignant pitch
when he asserted the two factions
had agreed on every point at issue
except one, and were agreed in
principle on that. They had, he said,
only to settle the details of that one
point to reopen the mines.
On that point, he added, they
agreed that there should be a ver-

She became a heroine to the grade
school pupils who fiocked to the
airport to watch her.
She and Judith made plans.
There were to be some southern
fairs that autumn, and they could
enter. Sarah Anne would Jump and
Judith would pilot. They received
dozen offers and accepted them.
"a dollar thrill" Judith said.
"But an exciting way to make ou-
living. That is, providing you al

never take you up if you don't.

Sarah Anne realized that it was
because she had been locked with
in herself for so long that now she
could ruthlessly sweep away the
boundaries and make this venture.
It wasn't her body that was hurl-
ing itself into space, seeking free
dom alone. 1t was her mind, too,
but no one else understood that.
The late summer was growing
hot and heavy and the grass was
whitening in TIE lawns. 1t hadn't
rained for a few weeks, and the
flowers dropped, and the dust sifted
through the screens and covered
the chintzes and the shining old
maple and mahogany.
Sarah Anne and Judy talked
about the cool tang. of the coming
autumn, forgetting that they still
would be warm in the south. That
future was something viewed be-
hind curtain not real, yet
not imagined.
And through her days, Sarah
Anne saw tall young man with a
lean, tanned face, walking slowly,
or walking swiftly. He had no limp
in her dreams. He was quite re-
covered, and he had flown away.
She went one night to a motion

Judy were arranging for para

be Sarah Anne's because she made
the jumps.

the amber-eyed girl insisted.
The movie was a mediocre story
of a boy who met a girl, left the
girl, and came back to her.
News pictures followed it. Sud-
denly Sarah Anne was sitting for

had followed some aviators at an
