The Toyko radio quoted Pre-

as saying in an address at Ma
Mia that the Philippines would
be granted their independence
"as soon as the Filipinos are in

This vague promise, reported
in a broadcast heard by the AS

ously was a bid for cooperation
from the Filipinos, who would
have received full sovereignty

NEW YORK, May 6 - Unless
you are well acquainted with
John Llewellyn Lewis you pro-
badly think of him in one of
two ways.
If you are visual-minded, he
is the big burly guy with bushy
eyebrows, a leonine name of
grazing hair and grim, steel
trap mouth over a bellicosely
jutting jaw.
If you think in terms of ac-
ton, he is the roughneck radical
unioneer who has led two motor
iously bloody strikes, defied
two strong presidents OF the
United States, and insulted ev-
erybody who has crossed his
path, however, powerful, with a
wealth of invective that makes
Harold Ickes seem tongue-tied.
In either event, you are inter-
ested in Lewis today because he
has locked horns with President
Roosevelt in the midst of all
out war, at a time when a strike
in the coal mines might mean
the difference between winning
this war next spring or having to
fight until l945 or '46 or AZ.
LONG LED MINERS
Who and what, really, is John
l.. LeWis-and how did he get
that way?
From the standpoint Of results,
Lewis is the biggest labor leader
since the late Sam Gompers.
Unlike most labor leaders, he is
not the product of unionism,
fronting for supporting cast
that made him and can break
him. He is himself the incarnate
spirit of belligerent collective
bargaining.

quarter of a century. he has

setup designed to overshadow
both A. F. of l.. and CLIO.
When John Lewis was q two
year-old, his Welsh immigrant
father was blacklisted by every
mine in the United States for his
part in strike. For Is years,
until the blacklist was destroy
ed, Thomas Lewis Lewis and his
family toured the country while
the father earned a living at any
work he could get.
When John was II, his father
went back into a coal mine at
Lucas, ILL.,, and took the boy
with him. Thenceforward John
was a miner. He dug coal, cop
per and gold in Illinois, Colo
RADIO, Montana and Wyoming.
Eventually, at q, he married a
school teacher and settled in
Panama, Ill. 1t took him only
one year to become state legisla-
tive agent for the United Mine
Workers, and four years to beat
the union head on an import
ant convention issue and to be
made an organizer for the A. F.
of l.. In 10 years he was national
vice president of the miners un-
ion and in IL years its head.
DEFIED WILSON
He became president after q
knockdown and dragout verbal
and legal fight with President
Wilson in connection with a
nationwide coal strike. Lewis
was indicted under a wartime
Federal law, but he won a big
pay raise for his followers and
the indictment was quashed.
He led the coal strike of 1922,
which was featured by the Her.
rim massacre in which % non
strikers and strikebreakers were
murdered, some in cold blood.
He led blody unionization wars
in West Virginia and Kentucky
two years later. There was gun
fighting at the Battle of Little
Muddy River in 1882 when the
Illinois district tried to unseat
Lewis as president of the UNIV.

On Hitler's next move may hinge
the fate of the Eastern Hemisphere
possibly the whole World. His armed
forces out-number the Allied armed
forces close to a hundred divisions
and having the interior lines, stra
logically the best, 1t gives him the ini
tiative and a powerful force to strike
in any given direction. While it's UNI
likely he expects an about victory
any longer owing to the stand of the
Red Army, his next big offensive will
be a bid for a negotiated peace and
a desperate attempt to line the Allies
against World Communism.
His recent trade-treaty with Turkey
his mixup with Sweden in the Baltic
sea together with the massing of
troops on the Spanish border as well
as in the Kuban district on the Black
sea may give clue as to the way
the wind is blowing. He has to have
the iron ore from the Swedish Kiruna
mine, but as Sweden is helplessly I'M
der his thumb, he has nothing to fear
in that direction but the two pivotal
points on which his future strategy
hinges are:
First, make major offensive in
the Kuban district with the object of
either releasing his Caucasian army
there or make last drive for the
Maikop and Grozny oil fields.
Second, failing to take the oil fields
but successful in releasing his begged
army there, he could shorten his line
by more than a thousand miles by
dropping Finland and Estonia in the
north and anchor his line on the Gulf
of Riga with Odessa on the Black
sea in the south, leaving him more
than hundred divisions strategic re-
serves, amply enough to force a de-
cision in North Africa if so used.
Assuming that he has given up the
idea of destroying the Red Army, his
most logical move would be to go
into Spain and with the aid of General
Franco take possession of Gibraltar
and thus being securely anchored
with. Spanish Morocco across the |
Starit, he would have near million
