Wage Farley

WASHINGTON, June 8 (INS)
Charles O'Neill, spokesman for
northern soft coal operators, de-
clared today that the wage con-
ferenceS with the UNIV union

the nations $4,000 coal miners
we're pretty well shot"
O'Neill indicated that today's
meeting between the operators
and miners in the months-long
coal wage crisis will be the final
session before the case again is
referred back to the WLB.
John L. Lewis, president Of the
UNIV, whose members twice have
gone on strike and now threaten
a third walkout, echoed the view
point.
O'Neill'S statement was conSid-
cred significant since the northern
group of operators were generally
regarded as more likely to settle
the dispute with the miners than
southern operators.
The southern coal operators
delegation earlier had indicated
their desire of breaking off the
pay talks and sending the case
to the WLB.
Lewis repeated his offer TO
sign contract on the basis OF
$l.50 daily for underground travel
upon resumption of the negotia-
tons after a six-day strike. The
operators declined this offer and
refused to make any counter.
proposal.
WLB sources predicted that

Davis previously warned the

Back Washington's
Plans Against laps
BY LOUIS +. KEEMLE
Unltsd Press War AnAly,t

A STRONG note Of confidence
in the plans laid down at Wash
ineton for the war against
japan Is being voiced by the
responsible American command
erS in The Pacific and Far
Eastern areas.
Ii il in contrast 10 previous
demands for immediate rein
forcementS in various theaterS,
mace presumably before the
men on the ground were ac-
Quainted with The overall
strategy which t,eS IN every
field OF action In a carefully
conceived pattern.
This confidence IS based on
knowledge Of the enemy 5 weak
neSses and our own mounting
strength. Japan's chief vulncr-
ability is demonStratahly the
dispersal Of her forces made
necessary by the widely Sepa-
= rated fronts on which She is
subject 10 attack.
THESE POINTS arc roughly
four-south-central China, the
southwes Pacific area
around Australia. the mid
Pacific from Hawaii westward.
and the northern zone fiankcd
by the Aleutian Islands.
Japans spread Of forces was
necessitated by the ambitious
nature of her war plan, which
called for conquest of all SOUTH
eastern Asia and the western
Pacific.
It was a chance the japanese
had TO take, but il failed 10
reach its detectives, notably
Australia, Hawaii and Alaska
in the Pacific and India in Asia.
THE LAST in particular was
due to Hitler's failure 10 smash
Russia and break through the
Middle East for a junction with
the Japanese, which would have
changed the entire pattern OF
the giobal war.
American sea and air power
in the Pacific and Ch in sc
tenacity in Asia nullified what
otherwise would have been for
Japan the winning cards in the
war. Now American production
is turning the scale against
Japan in shipping, both naval
and supply. and in the air.
The Chinese. with American
air aid, bid fair to hold the
Asiatic land front open until
the great drive from India and
Burma opens to sweep towards
the China Sea and japan itself.
TO MEET that drive will i'm
pose a heavy strain on japanese
air and land resources.
At the same time there is
likely TO be a threat from the
Australian zone and in the Mid
way area Of the Pacific, to test
Japan's naval as well as air
forces. In the north there is
the developing American spear
head in the Aleutians. plus the
ever present danger that Russia
will Join in from Siberia when
the Hitler menace is removed.
II all four Of these fronts
should be active simultaneously,
IL is extremely unlikely Japan
could concentrate on standing

Capt. Turner explained that in
four months 225 packages of sup
plies were dropped to the
stranded group. Each package,
he said. had to be thrown from
a height OF 100 feet on separate
runs over the target because
parachutes blew away in 100
mile per hour gales prevailing
there.
ut seemed queer TO be so
near those men, so that we
could almost touch them. and

"Our job was to keep. our ship

10 her, those fellows, would
have been out Of luck.
$50 we played safe and we
didn't rescue anybody. We just
made those supply trips. We
flew over and around bad
weather to get to them, and
sometimes when we got over
them the wind was so high that
we couldn't drop anything"
MADE OWN REPAIRS
Turner, a former pilot for the
Inland Airlines in the Rocky
Mountain area. stated that his
crew had to perform all mainte-
nance work at their remotet Arc
tic base.
"For the first month or so
we had only four and n half
hours of daylight" he said.
"Gas had to be pumped into the
ship by hand, and the boys got
up early every morning to heat
up the engines so that, II tho
weather should clear, she'd be

Tentatively Plans
u. 5. Visit in May
Invitation Extended
For Roosevelt by
Eric Johnston
BY the Associated Press,

SANTIAGO, Chile. March O.
President Juan Antonio Rios an
nounced through his secretary that
he probably would visit the United
States early in May.
He added, however, that definite
decision would not be made until he
has conferred with United States
Ambassador Claude Bowers and
Vice President Wallace after the
latter arrives here on his tour of
South America.
President Rios announcement
came after Eric Johnston, president
of the United States Chamber of
Commerce, disclosed he had been
requested by President Roosevelt to
invite the Chilean Chief Executive
to visit the United States.
Mr.. Johnston said yesterday he
had given President Rios a message
from President Roosevelt saying
Chile need never again have fear
OF an attack from Japan"
The statement was termed signif-
icant by observers since Chile in
cludes American continental ter
rltory farthest removed from the
United States and it's continental
bases. Chile stretches south past the
Straits Of Magellan to Cape Horn
controls the alternate inter oceanic
routes of the Panama Canal.
Chile's fears of japanese attack
were often advanced as one reason
for her delay in breaking relations
with the Axis until year after
10 other American republics had
done so.
Mr.. Johnston, who also is chair
man OF the nter-American Develop
ment Committee. said he was study
ing problems of the postwar indus
trial development of the American
countries, and termed Chile "a great
country which can be developed
further"
