grant wage increases up to the IS l-2 cents-anhour pattern in the steel Lewis ignored the statement and started talking about the need for a hospital fund and medical care.
 After week of that, Lewis suddenly switched one morning and started talking about mine safety. Where he's leading, operators don't know.
 Their best guess is that the miners weary, want vacation, and wouldn't go back to work if Lewis should sign contract. So he has to stall for time.
 Republican Congressman Fred 4. Hartley, Jr., of New Jersey who organized the coalition of northern Republicans and southern Democrats to amend the OPA price-control extension act says this is the last time he's going to for Congress He has been in Washington IS years and he says 20 years should be enough for any man.
 Harteys opponent in the primary June is progressive Republican, one Walter O. Schaefer. Hartley gets great glee in showing letter written him by Schaefer last January. In it, Schaefer en- dorses all of Hartleys actions in Congress and says he is glad their district has man like Hartley to represent 1t.
 What makes labor leaders might be the, subjec. of interesting psychological research some time. Walter Reuther, new president of the United Auto Workers, has one experience in his school oi nara knocks which may have influenced his career con- siderably. He was beaten up in his own home by couple of thugs.
 Reuther was a young man at the time. and he Screw Company in Detroit. Reuther was given in- formation on the identity of his assalants, and he had them arrested and brought to trial Identification was positive but a jury acquitted
 Later. when the Ford Motor Company decided 10 sign Q contract with United Auto Workers, one oi the two thugs called up Walters brother Victor, and invited the Reuthers and their wives out to dinner The taug explained that he was now member oi Walters union under the maintenance oE members ship clause in the Ford contract He had been oEder ed % 40 out and beat Reuther up, be explained hut there had been nothing personal about it
