An early indication of the UNIV

ton to Lewis report was provided
by the report that William Fitch.
district president of Birmingham
and policy committee member.
telephoned Go representative
John III. Hanratty to stand by for
"a walk-out at midnight unless the
committee decides differently.
While UNIV policy committee
members generally asserted that
the miners would back Lewis to a
man if new strike is called. some
of them indicated that new truce
period, allowing for further nego-
tiations with the steel industry,
might be forthcoming.
If the UNIV board of strategy
decides that a strike is the only
way to get a union shop. sources
close to the mine workers believe
that the walk-out would gradually
be made to include all of the ma
tons 100000 miners.
The calling out of mine mainte-
nance crews. which would result
in the flooding of mines with
water, was considered as a logical
retaliatory move by the UNIV n

the operation OF the mines.

Lewis Coal
Action Puts

Delegates Committed
TO Both Roosevelt
and Union Boss
BY JACK CRELLIN

Delegates to the CIO national
convention here faced the most
trying internal fight in the history
of their union Sunday when
"patron-saint' John L. Lewis de-
fled President Roosev and
headed toward resumption of the
defense-scuttling coal strike.
When the week-long meeting
opens, officially, Monday at Moose
Temple, the 500 leaders will find
themselves on spot that is caus-
ing a terrific headache. because
they are committed TO two basic
principles which no longer coincide.

The Jewish people had been
reused to resist the cruelties and
oppression Of the Syrians who
were attempting To suppress their
religion and liberty The divine
favor is invoked and Judas is rec
ognized as the Jewish leader
In their engagements with the
enemy, Judas and his followers re-
covered and restored the sanctuary
and reesta hlished the liberties of
the people A celebration of peace
and thanksgiving follows.
The choruses of Judas Maeea-

whether as part Of the oratorio or
as separate concert numbers. Had
