LONDON, April 19-Rallying the

Reliable sources said some En-

the dominions might be able to con-
tribute to any particular move and
to advise on both offensive and de-
fensive measures. In this way it is
hoped to facilitate swift action.
Already, the dominion high COM

Demand Southerners Be

Secretary of Labor Perkins plea

met tacit opposition today from all
three parties concerned.
Northern operators and President
John L. Lewis of the United Mine
Workers of America both said the
Southern operators must be brought
back into the Joint Appalachian
Wage Conference, which they bolted
some days ago, before the mines can
be opened.
The Southern operators, for their
part, wired Mr.. Lewis. offering to
negotiate separately with him here
This Mr.. Lewis refused to do,
while the Northerners said it was
impossible for us to bring about
resumption of work and production
of coal at Northern mines.
Dissolution of Conference.
"We regret that attempts to bring
about the dissolution of the Appa-
lachian Joint Wage Conference
creates this unhappy situation" said
Charles ONeill, representing the
Northern operators, in telegram to
Miss Perkins.
Mr.. OrNeill contended that Appa-
lachian area mines constituted a
single unit" and added that "as
businessmen it is essential that the
wages paid and conditions of their
employment throughout the area be
made upon an equitable basis"
He described this as an essential
requirement to continuous pro-
duction of coal"

circumstances that will provide ade-
quate and proper protection for all
interests.
"We believe Government can
greatly aid in this serious situation
involving the defense industries of
the country by assisting the Appa-
lachian Joint Wage Conference to
bring its deliberations to common
sense and a general conclusion in
accordance with the requirements OF
business and labor relations"
Lewis Won't Farley Separately.
Mr.. Lewis told Secretary Perkins
that if the Government could bring
about resumption of negotiations be-
tween the U. NJ w. r. and the
Southern operators it would be "logi-
cal to assume" an agreement would
be reached whereby the mines could
be reopened within the next two
or three days.

By JOHN c. HENRY,
Star Staff Correspondent.


HYDE PARK, N. Y, April 19,-
An appeal for ratification of a
West Coast shipbuilding wage
agreement was made by Presi-
dent Roosevelt here this after
noon after the Office of Produc-
ton Management reported the
agreement had been tentatively
reached but was being threat
ened by a minority labor
group"
Through a spokesman the Presi-
dent declared ratification would be
in the interests of the whole ship
building program and would set a
precedent for the East Coast.
Expected to be of value in expe-
diting the entire emergency ship
building program, one of the most
important undertakings now under
way. the preliminary agreement pro-
vides Identical wage rates in all West
Coast yards and was negotiated by
the Shipbuilding Sterilization Com
mittee of the o. P M, by employer
and by labor representatives.
A ratification meeting is sched-
uled for Monday in Seattle, but word
of attempts to block this action was
received by the President here this
afternoon.
In the interests of the shipbuild-
ing program as whole, as well as
to set a precedent for the East
Coast" White House spokesman
said, the President hopes that this
stabilization agreement will be rati-
fed because it seems to be a step in
the right direction for speeding up
the entire building program"
No information was available on
the wage scale agreed on nor was
the identity of the minority labor
disclosed.

history of the race to mark up three
victories.
Pawson's time was 2:3038, about
minutes behind the record set
