 had refused to negotiate a new wage contract with him and went to court when he asserted the right to ter- minate the present agreement at midnight tonight.
 At the request of Attorney General Tom Clark, U. S. District Judge T. Alan Goldsborough issued a temper ary restraining order Monday re- quiring Lewis to withdraw the ter- imitation notice and to do nothing to encourage a mine stoppage. Citing the miners traditional refusal to work without a contract, the Gov erncnent charged lewis with breach of contract and violating the Smith Connally Anu-Strike Law.
 Lewis Found at Hotel
 If Lewis visited his UNIV. head quarters yesterday, he was not ob- served entering or leaving. He would say nothing to reporters who found him al the Carleton Ho..l. Tn mid- afternoon he was sitting silhouetted against a sunlit lobby window, read ing a newspaper. his black hat low on his forehead
 Although Government attorneys believed Lewis was in technical viol- ation of the court order yesterday. it was understood that the Justice De- partment would neither ask that he be cited for contempt nor prosecute him under the Smith -Connally law unless he failed to act by midnight.
 It was indicated that Clark would ask the F.BI. to investigate possible violations of the Smith-Connally Act in mining communities. Agents were sc-t into the coal fields during pre- vious strikes, and more than a score of miners were prosecuted and con- victed in i944 for picketing mines seized by the government.
 The Justice Department reportedly was studying the possibility to court action to tie up the UM.W.'s Si3,- O0,000 treasury to prevent payment of strike benefits. However, the un- ion does not pay strike benefits in a national walkout and such pay ments would be forbidden by the Smitt-Connally act anyway.

trend and win become the potential slums of tomorrow, it Is believed.
 Terming the need for planning as a dollars and cents propoS- tion," the Commission looks with alarm at the inadequate available space for expansion Of industries in Connecticut. Some ten or twelve million square feet of available space are lacking for such uses.
 Lack Of foresight of many com munities has led them to control their development for purely resi- dential use resulting in stag nation Of economic development" !" This is believed to be partly in ref erence to the refusal of the Town ot MiddlebuTy to permit expansion of the U. s. Time Company plant there.
 Costs Vital in Planning
 The question of local planning costs is frequently raised by groups considering such programs, the Commission points out and states as principle to be adopted by many communities the following approach to Community planning:
 Many times such groups are apt Co place the cart before the horse, querying as to expenses which lo- cal planning agency will add to their already rising costs of govern ment. What these groups seldom re- alise is that the principal value Of a local planning agency lies in the determination of a course of com munity development on a long-range budgeted program whereby the tax. payer will receive the most physical social and economic benefits at the lowest possible net cost.
 The question which civic minded groups must ask themselves is not How much will it cost to plan?" but rather How much can we af- ford not to plan?"
 Waterbury was one of the first communities in the nation to lay out a long-term plan for improve ments.

 ural directions. the report states.
 Adjacent communities must no longer hide their heads in the sand and disregard each others prob- lens" the Commission states in dis cussing the need for regional con- alterations.
 Inconsistencies Found
 Pointing out that qualities of characteristics have a sameness in each and every community within the State, the commission points to the maxim that the whole is equal to the sum of it's parts which ap- plies to planning problems. This is in reference to the State, commun- ity and neighborhood.
 Citing Waterbury as prime metropolitan area. the report points out that many inconsistencies are revealed in the distribution of the existing uses of land relative to the sections making up the area such as Middlebury, Wolcott. Watertown. Prospect, Naugatuck and Cheshire.
 Boundary lines of communities making up a metropolitan area lose significance as population spreads into the suburban sections and so- cial intercourse with the central city increases" the Commission states.
 Cited as the principal problems for consideration in determining planning for such an area are land use, traffic, mass transportation, utilities and recreation and educa- ton.
 Note Suburban Residence Trend
 A central city. such as Water. bury. is noted as the nucleus about which suburban communities have developed. It serves as the cul- tural. financial and social center for an entire area. the report states.
 The trend toward suburban liv- ing is notable and is termed by the Commission as a phenomenon of decentralization" a move that was under way prior .to the war and twill gain impetus as the home building industry again gets into production" The old and obsoles- cent residential areas of Waterbury will lose population becuase of this

Police Hunting for Suspects M SeUeraL School RObberies

Believed Co be Che same pair that have been operating on "edus eatlonap scheme Ia New Haven and AouthlnHton, two men are being sought by police today for theft of eb0 from teachers and children in various grammar schools yesterday
 uarbed ln e Marine Corps camou. flage jacket, one of the pair entered the Anderson School and in answer bo questions said he was looking for the ianltoh During reeesA the thief went through teachers wallets and ehlldfens coats and came up with e20 and 10 cents, The dime was snltched from a youngsters pocketbook
 At Chase School the man made of with eab from one teachers wallet and @ from another AZ DuEgan school the attempt fell through, When questioned by a teacher the man picked up broom and proceeded Co sweep but was told Co leave.
 outside the school, like ln a movie, the "blg time operator" had c mon waiting, ready for a swift take.olf with q car motor running,
 Detective Sets, Charles McWees ney and Anthony Mariana won. dered # the local school thefts were connected with those in Southlngton and New Haven where over e2b was stolen,
 Two other attempts by the Ma. rlne-clad thief failed, At Hendrlck. en school after telling questloners he was looking for the janitof, the man, about % years of age, was chased away Later, at Klnesbury school during the noon time, an attempt was made to enter the building but was halted when the principal spotted the man.

mass murderers to send to the be- reaved a note stating their relative had. died of natural causes. inform ing them upon payment of 25O marks, ashes of the remains might be had. thereby making profit on their heinous crimes of murder.
 Most governments have urged the return of the displaced persons from UNNRA centers. However, more than 8OO,00O still remain in Ger many, and UNNRA officials are still in needs of many supplies. Miss Far ley says.
 Many of those rehabilitated through UNRRA efforts, and train ed to make living in their various schools, are desirous of immigrating to the United States, Canada. or South America. But there is little hope of their finding a place in the sun for many years. Miss Farley said. The U. s. quota for Poles is filled for the next four years. Im- migration laws will only permit en- try of ii3 Latvians annually. and so 1t goes with most of the minorities.
 Perhaps one of the best-known women experts on international rec lations in this city. and long an ac. tive worker in various peace or- ganizations throughout the East. Miss Farley sees little hope of the United Nations working effectively in its idealistic aims of establishing world peace unless the great powers agree to relinquish some of their sovereignty. The European people are much too weary, she believes, to think of war for many years. The widespread suspicion of Russia ex- isting in this nation today she fears is actually the menace that will make for war.
