Miners Ignore Truman;
Only Few Back at Work

WASHINGTON, May 81. -
Gates leading to mines in all
coal-mining regions in the United
States were opened today, yet,
despite the fact that the mines
are now being operated by the
government, only a few men re-
turned to the pits.
The Presidents request to con-
gress for legislation that would
empower him to draft workmen,
on strike against the government,
into the army, and to provide
penalties for leaders who would
advise their labor units not to re-
turn to work, evidently had little
affect on striking miners, whose
cry at every pit was, mo con-
tract, no work"
Senator Wayne Morse. of
Oregon. declared he opposed
envy such legislation on the
ground that forced labor would
be equivalent 10 peonage. and
that the governments keeping
the profits in the operation of
seized industries. as the Presi-
dent also proposed. was equiv,
alent TO confiscation. He also
opposed the proposal TO appoint
five-msn board TO settle
strikes against the government.
John L. Lewis silence and the
action of the miners in refusing
to return to work probably will
speed the Presidents recon-
mended bill through the senate,
it was stated. Action on the bill,
in the event the strike is not
settled in the meantime, was pre-
dicted for as early as Wednesday
in the senate. The bill already
has passed the house.
