On Thursday, April %, I sent a
telegram to John L. Lewis and
Thomas Kennedy. president and
secretary-treasure of the United
Mine Workers, pointing out that the
coal strikes were a direct interfer-
ence with the prosecution of the
war and challenged the govern
mental machinery set up for the
orderly and peaceful settlement of
labor disputes and the power of the
Government to carry on the war.
I said that the continuance and
spread of the strikes would have the
same effect on the course of the war
as crippling defeat in the war.
appealed to the miners to resume
work Immediately and to submit
their case to the National War
Labor Board for final determination.
Cites Plea to Work.
I stated that If work were not re-
sumed by 10 o'clock Saturday morn
ing, should use all the power vest
ed in me as President and Com
mander in Chief to protect the ma
tional interest and to prevent fur
ther interference with the success
ful prosecution of the war.
Except In . few mines. the pro-
duction Of coal has virtually ceased.

I now call upon all miners who

There's a greater likelihood of

Action 10 Roll Back
High Prices Of Food
Pledged by Brown
Warns Miners Pay Raise
Would Bring Increase
In Cost of Living
fTert OF Mr.. BroWn's Radio Address
on Page B-14)

While promising to roll back"
excessive prices, especially on
meats, canned and fresh vege-
tables and coffee, Price Admins
traitor Brown, in a radio talk
last night, warned the Nation S
miners that wage increases will
not improve their economic posi-
ton in the race against rises in
the cost of living.
The -OPA chief, who told the
miners that "your. Government
needs your support in this critical
hour pointed out that UNIV Pres
ident John L. Lewis demand for a
$2-a-day wage increase would result
in raises for workers in other in
dustries and in higher farm prices,
further increasing the cost of living.
He denied Mr.. Lewis assertion that
the cost of living has gone up at
a greater rate than wages.
Mr.. Browns promise that his
office would soon implement the
Presidents recent hold Line"
order against imitation by reducing
prices was recognized in some quar-
tiers as a last-minute appeal by the
administration to the miners to end
the coal strike before it becomes
necessary for President Roosevelt to
act when his ultimatum expires at
10 am. today.
Four-point Program Set.
The pledge to control prices was
outlined in this four point program:
l. Extension of price control to
every important commodity"
2. Rolling back" of prices now
considered excessive.
Mr.. Brown particularly mentioned
meats, fresh and canned vegetables
and coffee.
3. Establishment of specific dollar
and-cent price schedules for foods,
to be printed in booklets available
to buyers and sellers alike.
4. Vigorous prosecution of black
market operators.
Orders Speedy Action.
Mr.. Brown said he had issued in
structions to his staff to act without
delay to roll back those prices
which have got out of hand. The
prices of meats. fresh and canned
vegetables, coffee, among othefs,
will be rolled back"
This Office is holding as nearly as
humanity possible to the principle of
the Stabilization Act of last fall"
the former Michigan Senator as
serted. Our answer to those who
assert that we are not holding the
cost of living line is that wages in
industry, factory and mine have
risen amply and sufficiently to cover
the inevitable rises in the level of
living costs.

0PA Appeals D. {. Ruling
On $50 Ceiling Award

Seeking to reverse lower court
ruling which held that persons
overcharged on ceiling price articles
are not necessarily entitled to a $50
| mandatory recover from the mer-
chant the OPA, acting as inter-
venor, today appealed the case to
the Municipal Court of Appeals.
The OPA acted on behalf of Miss
Josephine L. McCorry, 1927 Massa-
chusetts avenue NV. who last
month was awarded IS by Judge
John P. Mcmahon in her suit against
the American Stores Co. Miss
McCorry, who claimed she was over
charged 4 cents on a can of to-
mato soup. had sought $50.
The OPA contends that under the
Price Control Act persons over
charged are entitled to a mandatory
| $50 award.
The Municipal Court of Appeals
recently ruled against the OPA in
the case of Miss Patricia Hall. a
Government stenographer who had
sought $50 from hosiery store. Her
suit claimed she was overcharged IS
cents on a pair of nylon hose.
OPA spokesmen today said they
chose to appeal Miss McCorry's case
rather than the other, because they
regarded it as better test case =
! inasmuch as Miss Hall was over
charged on the day the price ceiling
| on hose went into effect.
There could be no question that
the merchant had sufficient notice
in the McCorry case, the spokesmen
said.
