Atom Workers
Claim Victory

OAK RIDGE, Tenn. (LPA)-
The CIO Atomic Workers Or
ganizing Committee claimed last
week that It had won its first
victory in its organizing drive
among 10000 atom workers here
when it reported that Daniel
Leary, NLRB official, had rec
commended collective bargain
ing election along industrial
rather than craft lines.
With the AFL already having
petitioned for an election it was
ssAp likely that balloting could
be held sometime before the end
of July. Interest throughout the
south has centered increasingly
on Oak Ridge because it repre-
sents the first occasion in which
the CIO and AFL southern
drives have come into major
conflict.

Mine Union
Foremen Beet
Steel Company

WASHINGTON (LPA) = The
United Mine Workers-AFL won
one more round last week IN
their fight for the unionization
of mine foremen when the
United States District Court
here threw out an application
for injunction to restrain the
government from signing a con-
tract with the UNIV foremen's S
union.
The suit was brought by Jones
& Laughlin Steel Corp, which
already had one major NLRE
decision against it on the fore
man issue. The steel firm
asked the court to prevent the
Coal Mines Administration,
which is now operating the
bituminous fields, from negoti-
ating a contract covering 135
supervisors in four of the cor
poration's captive mines.
The National Coal Association
Immediately issued a public
howl that the decision "could
pave the way for an experiment
in National Socialism such as
Hitler and Mussolini practiced."
Meanwhile OPA took cog
nizance of the UMW's recent
wage gains and other contract
improvements and authorized an
increase averaging 81 cents a
ton in the ceiling prices of hard
coal and 401z cents for soft coal.
OPA estimated that the fuel bill
of the nations anthracite users,
mostly householders, would jump
S44,500,000 a year. Neither the
81 cents nor the 401z cents salts
fled the operators, however.
They contended in some cases
that the increases should have
come closer to S1.40 and 60
cents. OPA officials pointed out
that the entire amount of the
increases will be passed on to
the public. This means, in effect,
that the hard coal operators, for
escaped almost COM
pletely free. absorbing only Is u
cents while the consuming pub
lie must pay an additional 81
cents. The June strike losses
were computed at one cent a ton
IN allowing the increase.

Mine Visit
Shocks Reporters

SCRANT TON, Pa. (LPA)-
Newspapermen and women from
all over the nation, attending
the 18th annual convention OF
the American Newspaper Guild
CIO, received a lesson many of
them will never forget, when
they visited a coal mine here last
week.
Some of them, as labor re-
porters, had been writing for
years about the coal strikes,
portal-to-portal pay, health and
welfare funds and so on. But
until they went down 800 feet
into the dark blackness of the
coal mine and walked for miles
and miles underground, the
problems of the miners had
always seemed somewhat re-
mote-not quite as understand
able, for example, as the prob
lens of the auto worker or the
carpenter.
Several groups of the visiting
newsmen and WON n were
shocked to the core when they
came into one dimly lit chamber
to watch seevral miners work.
ing at a new "face" of anthra-
cite. A woman reporter noticed
several paper-wrapped objects
swinging on strings from nails
driven into the slate ceiling.
She asked one miner what the
objects were. "Our lunches,
Miss" replied the miner. "But
why hand them from the cell
ing?" asked the girl. The miner
looked astonished. "Why, to-
keep them away from the rats,
he said.

Seeing Eye-w,o Unit

We think the weather is hot,
but the OPA fight in Congress
is hotter. We are told that a
large group of veterans are sell
ing apples on the Washington
streets for eighty cents each and
they are labeled Taft Apples"
and are green. Have you writ
ten or sent any kind of COM
munication for the way Ramey
and Bender, our representatives,
and Taft, our lousy senator,
voted. If you want workable
price control for everything you
use and for rents, you will have
to tell those birds what you
want or they will vote your
shirts away. Everyone was hap
py when we got that eighteen
cent raise but it is our belief
that if we had received a dollar
an hour raise, the people we
elected to represent us in Con-
gress would have voted 1t away.
Get yourself set now to elect the
right kind of people who will
protect your pay check in No

Two of the most ardent fish

them brag about what they catch

1t seems that there should be
a correction of story printed
in this column regarding Kalish.
the foreman in Dept. 324. who
claims he received orders from
his boss Les Sprouse to ride the
old time Union Members in this
department. We do not know
who gave the orders but we still
insist to the high heavens it
stinks. Because it took a lot of
persuasion to coax three or four
of the brothers not to bid out.
If Sprouse is as guilty as Kalish
claims he is we hope he gets
what is coming to him.
We had the pleasure on Mon

|Apaches Play
At Coolidge
Tonight
(By BILL TITCOMB)

Coach Johnny Herrera's fighting
trlbesmen will leave this morning
for Coolidge to meet the Bears in
a football game tonight at s O'Clock.
The Apaches are out to break their
four game losing streak and have
the will to win this one At the
present the locals have won one
game and lost four. Their oppon-
ents have scored SO points and the
Apaches have accounted for rs.
The Bears defeated the Chandler
eleven by 13 points and that team
stopped the Indians by points
earlier in the season. Comparative
scores put the Coolidge gridsters
about three touchdowns ahead of
the Herreramen.
The Apaches have improved a
great deal since their engagement
with Chandler and if the locals
have learned the knack of holding
on to the ball they should be able
to stop the Coolidge team.
The following will make the trip
today: Pierson, Fontes, j. Trujillo,

chea, Hernandez Titcomb, Baffert,
Vale, O'Hagin, Abe Trujillo, Preci-

) New Court Martial
Units 10 Be Created,
Roya|| Indicates

Creation of at least three new
court-martial units to expedite trial
of officers as we'll as enlisted men in
connection with charges of brutality
Dt Lichfield reinforcement depot was
indicated here yesterday by Under
secretary of War Kenneth G. Royal.
The Undersecretary told a press
conference at the Pentagon that
legal and clerical aids will be sent
to England soon to help the Army
set up additional courts to try Col.
James A. Kilian, former commander
of the depot. and five subordinate
commissioned officers, as we'll as en-
listed personnel.
Mr.. Royal. who made personal
inquiry into the court-martial setup
on a recent inspection trip to all
theaters, pointed out there Is a
shortage of lawyers overseas. He
emphasized the War Department
will not interfere in the Lichfield
proceeding. but will make every eff
fort to supply the court-martiaI with
adequate personnel
Declining comment on published
charges that higher-ups are at
tempting to "whitewash" the case
against the commissioned officers,
Mr.. Royal expressed confidence that
all concerned will be given a fair
trial.
He expressed satisfaction with the
explanation given him in England
that two enlisted men were tried
first because, once their cases have
been disposed of, they can be COM
PEELED to testify against other de-
PENDANTS. Otherwise, he said, the
men might have declined to testify
on grounds they might incriminate
themselves.
Proof that the enlisted men acted
under orders in alleged brutal treat
ment Of soldiers, Mr.. Royal said,
would be "extenuating" circum-
stances in their cases, but would not
relieve them of guilt.
One enlisted man has been con-
victed and second is on trial. It
was indicated here that an officer
or officers probably will be tried next,
ana that several OF the trials might
proceed simultaneously.
Mr.. Royal said he visited penal
centers in foreign theaters, and from
personal inspection and numerous
talks with prisoners alone he was
convinced they are receiving treat
ment comparable with that in en-
lightened institutions at home.
He described the Arny's rehabil-
tation and honor" system, under
which 10000 men convicted of va
rious offenses have been restored to
duty, and expressed confidence in
the clemency board headed by Su-
preme Court Justice Owen ]. Rob-
erts to review, equalize and adjust,
when warranted, all heavy SEN
tences by July l.
The Undersecretary admitted that
under conditions of combat and
overseas service military sentences
tend to be excessive in many cases.
He said some 1900 sentences have
been reviewed, with up to 5000 yet
to be passed upon.
While this will mean no general

Jail delivery" the overall result will
be comparable with that of modern
penal procedures in the States, he
said. With this end in view, Mr..
Royal added, representatives of the
Army's correctional institutions
have been meeting in Washington
this week.
With regard to future plans the
Undersecretary said the committee
