Contract To Permit $1.25

The Making

WASHINGTON, April g. Up -
A contract providing $1.25 more a
day for the Nations soft coal min
ers, and excluding John L. Lewis
royalty demand, was in the max
ing today and both sides predicted
its acceptance.
The official attitude Of optimism,
which supplanted the gloom OF
Friday and Saturday when the op-
orators were ready to give up ne
gotiating after five weeks, was not
shared by all of those connected
with the wage conferences, how
ever.
The cost of the $125 proposal,
some operator sources said, would
amount to $15O,O00, 900 and tack Is
cents onto\ the cost of ton of
coal. A price increase would be
imperative, they said. Neverthe-
less Lewis, United Mine Workers
president, and conference Chair
man Ezra Van Horn, a Cleveland
operator, concurred that the con-
troversial points, at least, could
be settled in principle by Mon
day night.
The sudden turn of events was
brought about by Lewis Saturday.
He insisted on keeping the negotia-
tons alive when the operators
wanted to drop them and send the

Toughest Mazi Youths
Hurled Against Allies

PADERBoRN, Germany, April
l8.-R-Adolf Hitler has collected
his toughest Northumberland ted
youths of IA to 18 and thrown them
into battle against the U. S. First
Army with the now familiar Edo
or die orders to halt the Ameri-
cans.
Although these German youths
are not sufficiently trained to
match the skill and stamina Of 1t.
Gen. Courtney H. Hodges tank
men, they are fighting hard and
desperately.
"These youngsters are little city
toughs-Dead End Kids" said 1t.
Col. Andrew Barr of Urbana, Ill.
"They are better than the average
run of German soldiers and still
are enthusiastic over Nazi IDEAS
Only short time before the
Americans hammered their way
from the Rhine with the Third
Armored Division spearheading
Hodges drive, these Nazi youths
were brought into the great tank
training center in Paderborn and
trained to fight with the big Tig-
ers.
They are from the same tough
SIS (elite guard outfit which killed
Maj. Gen. Maurice Rose, who COM
manded the Third Armored Divi-
sion. After being taken prisoner
the general was shot through the
head a young enemy tankman.

meet the First Army's advance.
Even after these fanatical youths
are captured they must be watch
ed. Sgt. Edward L. Ellsworth, a
veteran medical aid man from
Wyoming, was almost killed by a
wounded young SIS trooper he was
attending.
As the American turned to ad-
just a bottle Of PlaS.na, the Ger
man grabbed a knife from a scab-
bard on the sergeant's belt. Capt.
Edgar Grove of Mechanicsville,
Va, blocked the blow which would
have plunged the knife into Els
Worth's back.
There were approximately 1000
of these tough kids in the tank
training school now in the hands
of the First Army. The school
is providing the Allies with val
liable information on German tank
training methods.
The school consisted of 10 large
three-storied barracks and an ad-
ministration building over which

The German tank.nen lived in
comfort at the center even though
the furnishings were cheap and
crude. The rooms now are Uttered
with clothing, torn mattresses,
broken pictures, letters and all the
odds and ends that soldiers carry.

The issue is forced by the inter-
American pledge, made at Mexico
City, to follow up wartime secu-
rity arrangements in this hemis-
phere with a system of treaties
which would afford protection for
the American states within the
framework of the new world Or
ganization expected to be set up
at San Francisco. The meeting
there starts April %.
1t also involves some current
political questions. Among these
are Russia's reported insistence
on maintaining the sort of govern
ment she wants in Warsaw despite
the Yalta agreement to have a
new national unity regime, the
recent Moscow coup in Romania
and general Russian domination
of Balkan and Eastern Europe af-
fairs.
Russia's primary concern with
the politics of those regions has
long been conceded here and in
London although President Roose-
welt sought at Yalta to project
American influence into those
areas sufficiently to guarantee the
freedom and independence of those
states.
Now it appears possible that the
question may be coming up in a
somewhat different form in CEN
trail Europe as a result of the i'm
pending liberation of Austria. Unit
ed States, British and Russian
diplomats have been trying for
months to evolve system for
three-power control of Austria 81
milar to that agreed upon for the
three powers and France over
Germany.

far no final agreement has been
reached. Allied armies in Italy
