Y the whole Appalachian field. They are now working under a union shop Sbntxact, but the contract authorizes fhe UNIV to cease work in those mines too if necessary to protect mo status of its members.
 a new strike in the captive mines AUuHd bring 6 quick go-ahead from The White House for enactment of stiff anti-strike legislation, 1t was Seiieved.
 s.Tlae first direct federal action in went of Q captive mine strike, it was Aelieved, would be to seize all stocks # coal now at these mines and at she steel mills. The government gould ration this coal among the mills so as to maintain the best pos- slble rate of steel production.
 The army has been collecting ct Pittsburgh the plans and blueprints sf the captive mines in preparation tor further contingencies.
 The rapidly widening scope of the aispute was reflected today when tegotiations in two industrial dis- Sites involving l5,500 defense work srs were delayed by the failure of cIO representatives on mediation board panels to appear at the hear ngs.
 Designations Go In
 Mediation board officials said that John Bropi1y, director of the CLOS industrial union councils, had for- Warded to the White House his res- lgnation from the board. CIO sec- cetary James Carey also was said to have sent his resignation to the nresident.
 z Brophy was the labor representa- tive of the mediation board panel Bearing the dispute between the Bell Aircraft O., Buffalo, and the CLOS United Automobile Workers Union. Representatives of the Buffalo local who had been attending hearings here also failed to appear
 The Bell dispute involves 1200o workers who are asking for a union shop, check-off and wage increases ln a new con ract agreement. The International Harvester dispute in- wolves $500 workers who are protest ing the lay-off of 4S0 men due to crrtailment of motor truck produc- ton and terms of new agreement.
 Informed government labor of- fscials expect the mediation board to collapse If all the CIO members re- sign, which appears likely. -. @ The next five days probably will be decisive ones and events during them may reverse the administra- sion's defense labor policies.
 Collapse of the mediation machirl- ery almost certainly would precipi- tate a move for compulsory arbitra- ton.

 putes by voluntary mediation e fail- ure and ask for anti-strike and compulsory arbitration legislation, Congress has been in the mood to act on such legislation for some time, but MT. Roosevelt wished to give mediation Q thorough test first,
 Climax of the bitter dispute bee tween the coal miners and operators in progress since late last summer came last night when Murray, also q vice president of the United Mine Workers, and Thomas Keh- nedy, the unions Secretary-treaS- urer, resigned from the mediation board. They were the CLOS reg ular members and Murray said that at least five and probably all of the CLOS alternate members would Ee" sign too.
 Murray and Kennedy voted against the other nine members of the board 24 hours earlier in their recommendation against a union ship for the captive" mines. In their letter of resignation to Presi- dent Roosevelt, announced by Mur" ray at a press conference last night, they said the boards decision makes 1t impossible for labor to re- tail any confidence" in the board. It would deny labor unions "the right of normal growth and legitimate aspirations, such as the union shop, and instead would promote "the traditional open shop policy ot the anti-labor employers ..
 Murray Emphatic
 Murray left no doubt of his po- Sition:
 "So far as we are concerned the (mediation) board is done," he told reporters. Turning to Kennedy, he received 6 nod of approval.
 His objection, he said, was not to mediation, but to the present board
 we are still of the opinion that such a policy (mediation) Is desir- able" he said. We were and still are in wholehearted support of the national defense program"
 "When this storm blows over, hope I will resume with MT. Murray for whom I have the highest re- gard and deepest affection, the same relations we have had in the past"
 Many bills of varying degrees oi stringency for dealing with labol disputes are pendtnS in Congress and only a nod from the President Is needed for Congress to rusf, through legislation that might out. law defense strikes for the duration of the emergency.
 A hint that Murray and Kennedy would resign from the board came late yesterday aftetrnoon when Davis released their minority opin- ion in the coal case in which they said the board had not discharged its obligations, as promised, to conr sider "the merits of the dispute.
 Claim Is Denied
 without reason, without logic without argument, the claim of the UNIV is denied, they said.
 The decision on the next move will be made by the 200 policy com mittee members called from all union districts, Murray said. In- formed government labor officials expect that a strike will be called unless forestalled by government action.
 The walkout would not become ef- fective until Monday-the day the CIO opens its national convention in Detroit. Lewis probably would go before the delegates for approval of mine workers strike, if one Is called.

 The general feeling here Is not whether war will come or not but when it will come.
 No Sign of Fear
 There are no signs of fear, how ever. In all quarters there appears to be determination to fight to the last man despite the comparative weakness of the Thai army.
 Premier Luang Bipul songgram in a newspaper interview denied the as- sertion of the Japan Times and Ad. vertiser that Thailand Is ''ungrate. full and unneutral." He said Thai- land is adhering to her policy of friendship with all nations and said that the Japanese allegation that Thailand has an agreement for joint defense with Britain Is "a baseless AAA4pAS
 According to foreign observers, the Japanese are now constructing barracks and massing supplies at frontier cities in Indo- China both in the north and south.
 It was believed that when these bases are prepared the Japanese will be able to bring 100000 troops into Indo-C China in a matter of days in preparation for an attack on Thai land.
 If the Japanese drive over Thai- lands southern frontier, 1t was thought here, the objective would be the occupation of Thailalld's air bslses and military establishments ct Aranya, Ubol and Udorn. At the same time, it was thought, Japan prob- ably would make a naval attack on the approaches to Bangkok and the naval base at Sattahib.

 The committeeman said he would express the same sentiments before Mondays meeting.
 Thus far the committee, and State Chairman J. Kenneth Brad- ley, have avoided foreign policy stand. Bradley has asserted this was not a responsibility of the commit tee, but should be threshed out at a state convention.
 Former Republican Gov. Raymond E. Baldwin already has come out in support of the policies of Wendell l. Willkie. which closely parallel those of President. Likewise. former State Treasurer Joseph E.

 Just What Hess Said
 London, Nov. i2.-(UP)-Rudoli Hess, No. 3 Nazt now e prisoner in England, told British offlciaIs that Adolf Hitler relied on "a starvation attack, even more than invasion, to bring us to our knees," c British spokesman disclosed today. Tn various remarKs the deputy fuehrer Hess has let forth from time to time during his sojourn in our midst that nothing has been clearer than that Hitler relied on a starvation attack even more than invasion to bring us to our knees," he said.
 "His (Hitler's) hopes have cen. tered on starvation and SO far as l941 is concerned these hopes have been dashed to the ground. But this only increases his need to invade us as soon as he can screw Up his cour- age and make arrangements to take the plunge"
 Although thousands of words were devoted to speculation on the req. sons for the Hess visit to Britatln, nothing evex has been divulged of1i- cially until today regarding anything he has said to British ofiicials.
 Hess arrived over Scotland in Q German plane and parachuted to earth before the German attack on Russia. While the British oftlcially were silent on his mission Josef Stalin said in Q speech to the Mos- COW Soviet last week that Hess went to England as representative of Hitler to attempt to persuade the British to join Germany in a coali- ton against bolshevism. There was some speculation as to whether Stalin had been informed of that angle of the Hess mission by the British.

 Other local candidates who have been prominently mentioned arc Aldermanic President John s. Mon. agan and Cornelius F. Maloney, secretary of the town committee. Should Mir. Monagan be the choice, local Independent Democrats would probably enter the campaign to oppose him, since he has been a protege of former State Chairman Smith, who has long been held in disfavor by the Independents.
 Senator Michael V. Blansfield has been mentioned, but said several wee.ls ago that he was not inter- este6 In the nomination.
 Litchfield Leader
 The leading Litchfield county candidate is Anthony Telesca, for- mer state senator and prominent leader in state veterans circles. Considerable support for him is be- ing organized. He was slated to be the Democratic candidate for state treasurer last year but lost out at the state convention. Other Litch- field county aspirantS are William O'Connor of Norfolk, former Young Democratic national committeeman and Thomas O'Neil of Canaan.
 In tLe lower end of the district the leading candidates are Rep. Henry Mccormick, AEsonia labor leader, and Mayor Cornelius Cald- well of Derby.

number of ships needed for big scale overseas operations against the Axis-such as an invasion of Europe but he said that the British Isles must be prepared to fight an irlva- sion next spring as result of col- lapse of Hitler's houpes of winning Q starvation war in 1943.
 For the first time, he disclosed something of what Hess--the No. 3 Nazi who flew to Scotland--had told the British.
 Accrding to Hess, Hitler hoped to bring us to our knees" by starva- ton rather than by invasion but those hopes collapsed as far as i94i was concerned, Churchill said. He acknowledged, however, that the Germans were putting more and more submarines and long-range airplanes into the attack on shipping to Britain.
 King George made two speeches this week one pyoroguing parliament on Tuesday and another today at the opening session.
 Dressed in the uniform of an ad. Iniral of the fleet in parliament to- day, he said that:
 Developments in the past year have strengthened the resolution oi my people and my allies to prosecute this war against aggression until victory"
 The king especially welcomes Rus- sofa as an ally and paid tribute to the heroic resistance of the Red army.
 Of the United States, he said that this growing intimacy" of the two nations was strikingly illustrated by the Churchill Roosevelt meeting Ion tine seas and oceans commanded by our two 1avies in closest fraternity"
 Beacon in History
 '"The charter agreed upon and published (by President Roosevelt and ChurchilD will stand as a bea- con in history, radiating resolution and justice and unselflsh purpose, the king said.
 T heartily welcome as an ally the great Union of Soviet Socialist Republics" he continued. My government and the govern ment of the Soviet Union have agreed to aid each other in war against Germany and to conclude no separate armistice or treaty of peace.
 The heroic resistance of the armies of the Soviet Union have won my deepest admiration"
 The king said that the results of the Moscow conference on war sup- plies to Russia was satisfactory.
 "In cooperation with the United States of America, my empire is affording the Soviet Union all pos- sible assistance against a common fOe," he added.
 "The Royal Air Force" he said, 'slnas carried the war to the enemy's territory and attacked with grow ing power his industries, commit nications, naval bases and shipping. By the boldness of these attacks it has compelled the enemy to keep large air formations in the west" He praised the army's ''briiliant campaign" in East Africa and said that the British Imperial Forces i'm the middle east had been greatly strengthened because developments ln tho far east had engaged close attention q Britain and xlgulied n
