Lewis Defiant,
Ready toCan
Mine Walkout
Some Already
Begin to Close
in Pennsylvania

Washington, Apr. 24-INS-John
L. Lewis. president OF the United
Mine Workers Union, set the stage
today for a nationwide soft coal
strike next week in open defiance
OF the White House and the War
Labor Board.
While some mines already began
to shut down in Pennsylvania in
what may be a prelude to a walk
out in all coal diggings on May l.,
the War Labor Board scheduled a
meeting for 10 a. m. to take up tine
deadlocked wage dispute between
Lewis and the country's bituminous
coal operators.
Meanwhile, before President
Roosevelt was a full WLB report
on the strike at the Celanese Cor.
porations Newark plant involving a
jurisdictional dispute by Lewis
union. The President is expected
to ask the strikers to r-,grn TO
work and failing that he presum-
ably will direct the Army % take
over the plant.
Board on Tenterhooks
Lewis, knowing full we'll that a
wartime strike in the coal fields
may send thousands OF Army troops
into action. kept the board on ten
textbooks until the last minute.
The mine union Boss" who has
branded the WLB packed court .
did not give any indication in sd-
vance whether he would obey o.
ignore a board edict 10 attend the
hearing.
Even then. Lewis, through adroit
maneuvering, shifted the spotlight
from the WLB meeting to q New
York conference he himself will
conduct next Tuesday.
Fhe UNIV president issued call
for a special meeting OF the unions
policy committee OF 200 rank-and-
file members. There was no doubt
but what the hardfisted Lewis
would walk out OF the conference
with a complete vote OF confidence
and the power to call a strike on
May l, II necessary, to enforce the
miners demands for S2-a-day
wage increase or its equivalent.
BY merely issuing the call, Lewis
minimized the importance OF what
happens before the WLB in Wash
ington today, tomorrow and Mon
day. 1t was reported likely that the
wDB, faced with the Tuesday de
velopment, would hold a Sunday
meeting tomorrow.

program which will absorb the in
fiation dollars. Congress will have
to support that program.
The pressure groups whose pur-
pose it is to get their members
more money for products or wages,
will have to be thrott1ed. This
means that the administration has
to be tough. Congress will have to
have courage. The people will have
to support their elected representa-

The vast majority of Americans
are perfectly willing to carry their
share of the load. They are not
willing to make sacrifices if they
believe someone else is getting the

The farmer will work the skin off
his hands and take a meager reward
if it's for the good of the country
and the boy he spared to join the

him the workman is making all the

The workman will face higher liv-
ing costs-and he certainly has to,
without wage raise, until some
body comes along and tells him the
farmer is getting rich and that
is why his food costs 60 up. And
so on.
The reason why believe this is

SMOKES and the SOLDIER

Is it true that a soldier is always
hungry?
master Department has found that
some soldiers, particularly new re-
cruits, actually don't eat enough.
The Army mess table is exactly
like a football teams training table.
The food served there is carefully
planned to aid in the physical devel-
opment of the soldier. And the Army
has discovered certain little ways to
increase Johnny Doughboy's appetite.
The Army has found it can add to
soldiers enjoyment OF his food-and
therefore increase his conSurnp zion of
all those carefully prepared vitamlns,
minerals, and proteins-if he is al
lowed to smoke during meals. Meas
ured tests run by the Quartermaster'S
Department show that food consump-
ton actually increased by 5%, when
soldiers were permitted to smoke Gig
arettes at the mess table.
Smokes" of course, play prom
inent part in many phases of the life
of a soldier. Whenever you see.
news photo of soldiers at ease, you're
apt to see them enjoying cigarette.
Particularly among American troops
overseas, cigarettes-real American
cigarettes-are highly priced and al
most never present III Su1lclenC
quantities.
What kind of cigarettes do Uncle
Sans fighting men prefer? Well,
records show that the favorite cigar
cite is Camel. That is true not only
with men in the Army, but with Sail
ors, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen
as we'll. Sales records from the serv-
ice mems own stores-Post Ex-
change, Sales Commissaries, Ships
Service Stores, Ships Stores, and
Canteens-show that Camels are first
with men in all branches of the serv-
ice.
Further proof that Uncle Sans
fighting men like their smokes is
given in the service mans preference
in gifts from home-.it's carton of
his favorite brand of cigarettes. To-
bacco dealers, recognizing that Cam
els are the favorite among service
men, are equipped to help you in
properly wrapping, addressing, and
stamping your gift of Camels to the
man in the service.-Adv.

To Achieve National Unity
Administration, Congress Must Get, Tough
In ThrottIing Various Pressure Groups
Seeking Advantages for Few,
By BAUKHAGE
Ne1Us analyst and Commentator.

Washington, ID. G.
In the next few weeks decisions
will be reached which will affect the
length of the war and they will not
be made on the military fronts.
They will be made in small town
offices, leaning across fences, down
at the post office or the court house,
on front stoops, at the Elks club, in
the lodge rooms and after meetin's
of one kind or another in every
middlesex, village and farm in the
country.
They will result from converse
tons between the congressman,
home to mend their 1914 fences,
and their constituents. The nation
faces a crisis on the home front.
Unless it is solved in the common
sense American way, it is going to
prolong the war months, and per-
haps longer. It's presence has al
ready delayed the capitulation of It.
ally, according to some of the more
pessimistic pessimists around
Washington.
AS success on the battlefront
grows, the efforts of those trying to
support a total war are being de-
e.
TWo EUents
Two events mark the low in uni
fed effort for victory. One was
when reporter, with no evil in
nuendo in his mind as far as I
know (and I know the mani, asked
the President if he would make any
comment for background on the
statement that although things were
going well on the battlefront, they
were not going so well on the ad-
ministration front (meaning home
'front.'. The President replied with
castigation of the press and radio.
Some of their representatives., he
said, were encouraging government
tai friction. He could have given a
blasting, rip-roaring answer which
would have encouraged the coun-
try. AS it was, he made some of
the men whose job it is to interpret
the news to the country, too mad
to be objective.
The second event which marked
the nadir in shoulder-to-shoulder eff
fort on the home front was when
congress came within an eyelash of
killing the use of any and all subsi-
dies which would have broken
wide hole in the anti-infation dam.
Let me state Immediately that I do
not believe that subsidies is the pan
acea for our initiation ills, but to
have wiped them out completely at
that time would have meant jerk
ing the one, wobbling support we
did have right out from under the
price-control structure.
Since then the President has
perked up and taken a positive
stand and congress on second
thought modified its berserk mood
and evolved a compromise.
Now it is up to the people. If
the congressman are convinced that
they can afford to go national and
not be defeated a year from No
vember; if they are convinced that
the people will support their votes
if they vote for what they think the
country needs and not to suit the
pressure groups that sit on their
desks all day, the crisis will pass.
