MINERS WANT MORE DELAY

Shortly after the strike ended, the Clerk of the Supreme Court phoned both the Attorney General and the Lewis lawyers and asked them to meet with Chief Justice Vinson at 3 pm. for a second conference. This time Vinson asked both sides for their views as to when the case should be argued-now that the strike was settled.
 Padway and Hopkins proposed that tn case be set on the regular court calendar and taken up as a matter of routine. This meant ar gument in late February or March with another possible coal strike set for March B. Again Attorney General Clark objected.
 T feal very definitely that this case should be argued in a reason able length of time, he said. Ger tainly in January"
 Again the Chief Justice listened. This time he expressed no view, and the lawyers were preparing to come back the following week and present further ideas on appropri- ate dates, when the Court beat them to it. It announced at it's next session that it would hear argu- ment on Jan. l4
 TEXAS DIPLOMAT
 StatuesQue Senator Tom Connally is just as open-hearted and we'll liked as the broad plains of Texas from which he halls; but as di- plcmat he is causing a few head aches to Jimmy Byrnes Even Sen ator Vandenberg Of Michigan whc gets along well with Tom despite being on opposite sides of the poli- tical fence, has had to prod his friend from Texas.
 1t was during the debate over Spanish Dictator Franco that Sen ator Ccnnally got things snarleo up. Apparently Tom fell for the charm of the British and of certain State Department career men, es- pecially Outerbridge Horsey, whc handles Spanish affairs.
 At one point in the United Ma tions debate over Franco, Connally rose anu proclaimed:
 The United States will not be bound by any resolution passed by the General Assembly (on Franco.)
 This was equivalent to Connally'' getting up on the floor Of the Sen ate and stating that he would vio- late a law even if passed by tht
