Churchill Test

topic of discussion in London:
"If bomb killed Winston, TO
whom would we turn?"
The answer then, substanti-
ated by the Gallup survey outfit
and by every other reputable re-
seacher. was emphatic: IF we
lose Churchill, we'll turn to
Eden"
Eden has grown in stature
tremendously since he was only
a glamour boy in a black hat.
But the public choice for Eden
for prime minister in the event
of the "loss" of Churchill was
restricted to "lOss" by bomb or
other form of sudden death.

No Wonder Bar
Police Decide

Sammy Sofferin. owner of the
Wonder Bar. a Washington boule-
ward cafe. probably will be given
so days to dispose of his license.
Chairman John w. Miner of the
state liquor commission said today.
Because the Detroit police de-
partment has refused to recon-
mend renewal of Sofferin's license
the commission decided not to give
the Wonder Bar a new permit.
May l is the deadline for new
licenses.
The Detroit police department
refused to recommend renewal of
the license because of alleged in
fractions of cabare regulations by
Sofferin. Chairman Miner said he
would discuss the Soferin case to-
day with Police Commissioner
Frank d. Eaman.
Nine other Detroit liquor estab-
lishments have also been denied
new licenses for lack of police
recommendation.

DEFENSE TEST

The defense test vas held only a
few days after the arrival of Gen.
eral Lord Gort. head of the British
evacuation from Dunkirk, at the
Gibraltar fortress, where he has
been appointed commander-in-
chief and military governor.
Accompanying the British fleet
when il steamed into the Gibraltar
naval base from the Atlantic were
three British merchant vessels,
possibly supply ships.
Coming on the heels Of persist
ent rumors that the Axis plans a
thrust southwark through Spain
in conjunction with the drive to-
ward the Suez Canal and the
Alexandria naval base. this report
caused widespread speculation in
Vichy political and diplomatic
circles.
These circles. considering the
evident need for Britain's full
naval strength against U-boats in
the crucial battle of the Atlantic,
considered their reported arrival
at Gibraltar as tacit British con-
firmation that the great fortress is
threatened.

WASHINGTON. April 29.-The
29-day-old soft coal stoppage,

ers Union.
Since northern operators already
were in agreement with Lewis, the
action Of the southern group
brought labor peace to the coal
mines when hopes for settlement
seemed darkest.
Lewis also advised the White
House that he would accept the
truce. Charles F. O'Neill. spokes-
man for the northern group. said
that the equalization means that
we can all go back to work"
FULL BLAST BY THURSDAY
Many mines. which had been
shut down since April /, were ex-
pected to be back in operation
within "a hours. others within 48
hours so that full mining opera
tons were to be resumed by
Thursday morning.
End Of the stoppage came with
dramatic suddennesS. During the
night the southern operators.
through their chairman, L. Eber-
sole Gaines, wired President
Roosevelt:
1.-THE undersigned representing
the IS southern districts which
have not yet negotiated a wage
agreement accept your proposal
without equivocation. We are
ready to resume work immedi-
ateIy."
It meant that 100000 idle min
ers could get back to digging coal.
CREDITED TO JONES
Under the Presidents proposal,
the southern operators will grant
miners a 81 n day wage increase
TO $3.50 a day. and then negotiate
with Lewis union for a demand
for 40 cents more.
Lewis has demanded that the
South grant 81 a day. the same
wage that northern operators have
agreed to pay. but the South has
been steadfast in its refusal to
surrender the wage differential
favoring it.
Key figure in the settlement was
Jesse Jones. secretary of COM
merce and federal loan admins
traitor. Jones was designated by
President Roosevelt to . confer
with the southern operators dur
ing the night and he kept at it
until they agreed to Mr.. Roose-
velt's insistence on a truce.
Jones probably would have been
the man to run the southern mines
had President Roosevelt invoked

Consumption law to force reopen

The Germans broke through
