WASHINGTON, June 1.-UP)-
The House today adopted the COM

shortly after hearing that President
Roosevelt had given assurance that
he would sign it.
The House adopted the conference
version of the legislation by a
standing vote Of 159 to 68. A con-

Representative A. Willis Robert

word to Speaker Sam Rayburn that
he would sign the legislation if it is
approved by Congress. Senate ap-

Wayne l.. Morse, DR.. George w.

1t was assumed they laid before
him the history of stalemated wage
hour negotiations between the min
ers and operators and discussed
with him the governments attitude
toward the Walkout which followed
expiration of a working truce last
midnight.
BOARDS POSITION
The boards position, it was un-
derstood, is that UNIV President
John L. Lewis mo contract, no
work" rule is invalid in the present
case because the WLB had ordered
extension of the old contract pend
ing completion of new agreement.
But the miners, refusing to recog-
nize the boards rulings, have walk
ed out and the strike is on Whether
or not they acted on valid grounds,

erS quit their jobs in the absence
of an order by Lewis extending the
truce.
Because of its long standing rule
against considering labor disputes
during work stoppage, there ap-
peared to be some possibility that
the board may order suspension of
negotiations between the miners and
operators. 1t appeared probable,
however, that the board would take
such a step only in the eventuality
that the government was prepared
to take positive action to reopen the
mines.

Despite the fact that the con-
ferees appeared to be nowhere near
an agreement on Lewis for So daily
