Federal ConciIiators
Expected 10 Enter
Coal Wage Dispute
Spokesman for Owners
And UNIV Regard Move
As Usual Development
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 22.-Spokes-
men for the Southern coal operators
and the United Mine Workers have
announced that they expect the i'm
minent entrance of Federal concilia-
tors into contract negotiations in
volving bituminous fields.
In Washington, Dr. John r. Steel
man, head of the Federal Concilia-
tion Service, would say only Il have
no immediate plans for entering the
situation"
Appearance of a Government eX-
pert at this stage was described yes
terday as "a logical possibility" by
former Senator Edward R. Burke,
president of the Southern Coal Pro-
ducers' Association.
Follows Usual Pattern.
K. c. Adams, editor of the Miners
Journal and union spokesman, said
that if Labor Department concilia-
tors appeared it would be nothing
unusual in fact would follow the
pattern of all mine wage disputes. "
He added that sometimes the con-
Ciliators entered the conference on
their own authority when it appears
that settlement is not in sight"
The operators last week sent tele-
grams to President Roosevelt and
various Government officials which
were understood to carry an implied
request for Federal intervention
To date the negotiations have pro-
duced statement by John L. Lewis,
UNIV president, that soft coal
mines would be idle April / if the
100000 miners involved failed to
obtain a contract to replace the
current one due to expire March 81.
This was followed by UNIV pro-
posal to soft coal operators outside
the Appalachian region offering un-
interrupted production in those
mines under the present wage scale
II the outlying operators agree to
accept any wage increases or
changed conditions finally decided
on for the Appalachian area, re-
troactive to April /.
Union Sees Retroactive Deal.
In proposal TO Appalachian op-
orators, the UNIV offered to con-
tinue negotiations for a month be-
yond March 81 on condition that
any agreement reached would be
retroactive to that date.
Mr.. Adams predicted that the
union would secure agreement to its
retroactive plan. He asserted that
large operators in areas outside the
Appalachian fields "are already pre-
pairing to do business on retroac-
tive basis"
Major union demands are for
$2-a-day wage increase, an S8 daily
minimum for all who work in the
coal fields and unionization of mine
bosses below the rank of superin-
tendent.

A House concurrent resolution pre-

zens Of the United States who have
been disloyal to this country
Another bill which Mr.. johnson
has prepared would establish

mine his loyalty to this country and
order deportation for disloyalty.

Italians Are Declared
Eager for Invasion OF
Peace. 10 End Raids
People Short Of Food
And Sleep and Have
Lost Fuith in Duce
BY the Associated Press.

STOCKHOLM, June 21.-The
Italian people want to get out of
the war and gain relief from AL
lied bombings, which have ham
mered pre-invasion warnings
home to Italy's industrial CEN
ters, informants recently re-
turned from that country said
today.
Short of food except in high
priced black market trading, short
Of sleep because of Allied air raids,
and short of hope because they
have lost faith in Mussolini's
Fascist regime, the Italians were
reported welcoming invasion or a
separate peace as putting them out
Of their current misery.
As the invasion threat grows,
1t was said, the Italians talk more
and more about their chances of
getting out of the war.
Populace Looks Hopefully to Pope,
Many of them feel they are be-
tween two fires" these sources said.
They say If we sued for peace
today we would have only German
bombers over our cities tomorrow
instead Of Allied planes.'"
(Rumors among the French
civil population in North Africa
Saturday that highly placed
Italian ENJOYS were there ask
ing for a separate peace were
officially declared by Allied
sources to be without basis.
Axis spokesman previously had
denied the rumors.)
Among all the wartime confusion.
Pope Plus XII stood out as the
most important figure in Italy, the
informants said here, with the
average Italian looking hopefully
to him as the man of the hour" !"
Because of the nearness of Vatican
City. which leads to a popular be-
lief Rome will not be bombed, the
capital now is jammed with evacuees
from other bombed cities, with lodg-
Ing non-existent and food scarce.
Rome Raid Shelters Inadequate.
IF Rome is bombed, there will be
absolute chaos and catastrophe, one
source said. The AFRAID shelters
are inadequate"
Moreover, German officers who
have poured into the capital were
accused of feeding the black market
by freely trading military stores so
they can 60 on spending sprees. An
ordinary package of popular brand
American cigarettes brings 400 lira
(about $2493 at 1941 exchange
rates. and a suit OF good cloth costs

ket
tReports from Bern said the
Italians had ordered mobiliza-
ton of six classes of women from
ID to "a and 18 classes of men,
from 18 to SO and not in the
armed services, for labor bat
talions.
