Mr.. Lewis in Court

The first visit OF John L. Lewis
to the District Court was In the
nature Of a preliminary skirmish,
a Strengthening out OF battle lines
for the real contest which begins
tomorrow.
AS matters stand, Mr.. Lewis has
admitted, through his counsel, that
he has not complied with the re-
straining order issued by the court.
The effect of this order was to
restrain Mr.. Lewis from permitting
his notice OF termination of the
so-called Krug-Lewis agreement to
remain in effect. In other words,
the court called upon Mr.. Lewis to
take some Affirmative action to
cancel the notice of contract termi-
nation. But his counsel told the
court yesterday that "since the
issuance Of your honor's temporary
restraining order of November 18
(the defendants, Mr.. Lewis and the
United Mine Workers. have done no
act nor spoken any word pertaining
to said notice or in reference to
permitting 1t to continue In effect"
This, on its face, is an acknowl-
edgment that Mr.. Lewis has done
nothing to comply with the order
of the court. Thus, If 1t was lawful
order, Mr.. Lewis would seem clearly
to be in contempt of court. His
attorney contends, however, that
the court lacked jurisdiction to issue
the order, and If this is correct Mr..
Lewis would have been under no
legal obligation to comply with it.
The practical effect Of this is to
narrow the controversy to two main
points. First, has Mr.. Lewis refused
to obey the order Of the court-a
point which seems virtually settled.
And, second, was the order lawful
one and within the jurisdiction of
the court?
The hearing which begins tomor-
row will provide answers to these
questions. II the court decides in
favor OF Mr.. Lewis that presumably
will be the end Of the case. II, on
the other hand, it rules for the Gov
eminent, then the question will be
whether Mr.. Lewis, having professed
sentiments Of difference and respect
for the court, will order his men back
to work pending an appeal, or
whether, despite the initial ruling,
he will permit them to remain on
strike until the Supreme Court acts.

The Controlling Interest

{ While 1t is understandable that
Gallinger Hospital authorities would
prefer not to have street cut
through their grounds, the fact OF
the matter is that District Highway
and National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission officials have law
and logic on their side in seeking
eventual extension of Massachusetts,
avenue across the Anacostia River.
Nearly thirty years ago Congress
wrote into the Gallinger Reservation
/ Act a provision that whenever it
should become necessary to extend
! Massachusetts, avenue beyond Its
present Southeast terminus, the re-
quisite 165-foot right-of-way through
the hospital grounds should be made
available That provision still stands,
It cannot be eliminated or modified
except by another act Of Congress
And it is not very likely that Con-
gress would be inclined to scrapAthis
long-vieW avenue extension plan at
time when traffic developments in
the Southeast make the ultimate ex-
tension more logical than at any
time since the 1917 law was passed.
The general public interest must
be the controlling factor in such
situation. The general public in
terest requires that the city planners
give far-sighted consideration to
fast-developing traffic needs. The
phenomenal growth Of Anacostia
and contiguous communities has
placed strain on existing bridges
that eventually will have to be re-
Iieved by another span. Planning
authorities. contend that this new
bridge should be along the line OF
Massachusetts, avenue extended.
Fortunately, such an extension OF
the avenue through the Gallinger
property would not have catastrophe
consequences as far as the hospital
is concerned. Chief among the OBJ
jections raised are that the noise
and fumes of traffic would disturb
the patients and that the road would
Interfere with future expansion OF
hospital facilities. Actually, however,
the avenue would be nearly 200 feet
from the nearest building. It would
be further isolated from the hospital
by an elevated grade, by underpasses
for hospital vehicles and pedestrians
and probably by fences. There would
still be room for several new build
ings on the present grounds, and II,
as has been advocated in the past,
the District Jail should be moved to
some more suitable location, the
hospital could be given use OF the
Jail property.
Since lack of funds and materials
probably will necessitate indefinite
postponement of the plans for ex-
tending the avenue, there is no occa-
sion for immediate decision OF the
issue-except that the sooner the
question is settled, the sooner will
hospital officials know how to make
permanent plans for future expan-
sion. Because the question Is likely
to be a recurring one, 1t would be
well if the matter were submitted
to the new Congress for conclusive
dofory,oiy1 fioy
