ton but over the years of collective
with the United States
Potters Association there have been
but very few cessatiOnS of work.
Touching upon the recent illegal
walkOut in this district, Vice Presi-
dent Hull outlined the action that was
taken at meeting held earlier in the
day with representatives of Locals O..
H. Is and 13O.
We appreciate the talk of Brother
Hull and hope he can come back again
soon.
There seems to be little doubt in
the minds of some of our members as
to the collecting of fines when they are
assessed by the local. The local is not
fooling in this matter~and word to
the wise should be sufficient.
Sister Ola Weaver gave a report of
the auditing committee which found
the finances of Local 124 in excellent
shape. At this time l think word of
praise should be given to our local
officers for the efficient business like
way they have handled the affairs OF
our lOcal-O.C. 124.

John L. Lewis
MdY Void Bid
To Rejoin AFL
Miners Chief Sdid To Re-
sent Delay; Federation's
g Convention The Deudline

Washington - John l.. Lewis may
withdraw the petition of the United
Mine Workers for re-ailiiation with
the American Federation of Labor if
action on the application is prolonged
unduly and postponed until after the
AFL convention in October.
This was disclosed by union sources
close to Mr. Lewis They also indicated
that the miners chief had frankly
made his viewsttinown to members of
the AIL committee who conferred
with him several weeks ago. On the
committee were Daniel j. Tobin, pres-
dent of the International brotherhood
of Transfers: George II. Harrison,
president of the brotherhood Of Rail
way Clerks, and Matthew VOL, vice
president of the federation.
Report 70 BE Submitted
The present plan of the AFL com
mittee appears to be to submit Il fac
tual report to the executive council
of the federation on the conversations
with Mr. Lewis and his associates.
HIS report, dttDIu1nS To llItStlll III
tcntion, which may possibly be changed
in the next week, is to advise the
executive council at its meeting in
Chicago on Aug. 9 of what went on in
their conference with the mine union
SpokeSmen but not to make any recon-
mendationS, in he belief that the coun-
ell itself will canvass the entire Situa-
tiou thoroughly,
An outstanding phase of the com
millce'S report will deal with the fat
refusal by Mr Lewis to inform the
committee of he size of his union )
District 30, Il catch-all organization,
or TO reveal any details of this auNili-
arN'S makeup.
Not only did Mr.. Lewis refuse to
answer amy questions concerning Dis
trict 30 but he also informed the AFL
committee that he would not 90 into
that situation until his union was back
in the federation.

 Especially remarkable is Law rence's accomplishment because he came to Alaska only five-and-a- half years ago from his native Jugo Slayia, unable to speak word of English. With his sister, Dace, he was brought to this country by MT. and Mrs. Bolyan who were then on trip to Europe. Adopted by the Bolyans, Lawrence and Dace have been living at the family's mining property at Cobol on the west coast of Chichagof Island
 With their correspondence work for the year completed, Lawrence and Dace and their mother have been in Juneau since May 1. Dace has been attending high school with the sophomore class and both young people have been enjoying the end of-the-year school activities.
