Supervisors Union in AFL Is Upheld
Jones q loushIin
 Steel Loses Appel; Opinion Unanimous

Washington, Dec. 10, (UPD~-Tne Q. C. Court Of Appeals ruled today that mine supervisors may join rank and fife labor unions.
 The decision upheld the right of q group of supervisors In ttle caps tive coal miEes of the Jones A IAtghiin Steel Corp to form . unit of the United Mine WOFkeks (A.p.L.), the union which represents the production workers of the mines.
 Justice Bennett c. Clark wrote the courts unanimous opinion. The decision is expected to be appealed to the Supreme Court, which only last week agreed to ihear another test case involving the collective bargaining rights by supervisory employees.
 Seek e Form Independent
 In that case, . group of super" visory employees Of the Packard Mo. tor Car Company sought the right to organize into an independent union and bargain. collectively
 The Jones & LAughlin mine Su. pervlsors, on the other hand, sought to join District 50 Of the UNIV John L Lewis cstch-all group,
 Clark's opinion affirmed Q deci. einn of the Federal District Court here ir favor of the JAL. super visore. The company had appealed.
 The appeaIlate court rejected . contention by the company that "a single union cannot lawfully set zs exclusive representative of both rank and file employees and their supervisors in . hazardous indus try"
 The company contended that union control of the supervisors was incompatible with their duties tirl- der iaw for safeguarding the work and activities in the mines. The company owns four coal mines in connection with its Steelmaking ac- tivitieg.
 Clark agreed with National LA- bor Relations Board ruling thet the safety regilations are primarily for the protection of the mine person. mel and not for the protection of company property.
 Therefore, he said, supervisory membership in the union which also represented rank and file members should not interfere with the eTi- forcement of safety regulations. Certified By NLRB
 The supervisors affected by the court order were employees of the four Pennsylvania coal mines owned by Jones e LAugh1in. These mines were taken over by the Government after last Springs coal strike.
 On May go the NLRB certified the supervisors' union of John l. Lewis District 50 as the exclusive collective bargaining representative | of the mines supervisors
 The mines had been seized by the Government on May 2l, and | thereafter the Government, ai operator of the mines, recognized the U. M. ". affiliate as the sole union representative of the super | visors.
 Jones 6s Laughlin asked the Dis.
 trict Court for a preliminary fn- junction to restrain the Govern ment from recognizing the union The court of appeals today agreed
 that the District Court properly dis.
 missed this request and ruled thai the Government was wil1in its lega rights in entering into an agree
 ment with the union.

The rstyear meeting of the world parliament ended at 1243 A.

Soviet Coils Compromise Key to Peace
 EditorioI Urges
 Goodwill, Patience
 Between Notions

Moscow, Dec. 16 -(UP)- The magazine New Times, in a major statement of Soviet foreign policy which was regarded as the most important Russian declaration in months, todBg pleaded for interna- tionai goodwill and patience and as- serted that lasting peace can be ob- tained only through compromises by al sides.
 Tine unsigned editorial to which the magazine devoted almost one third of its pages was taken hy foreign observers as an outstanding declaration of Soviet foreign policy.
 It was noted that the editorial paraIleled the conciliatory line taken by Foreign Minister v. M. MOlotoy at the New York foreign ministers and United Nations meet ings.
 Liberal View Taken
 The Soviet declaration asserted that efforts by reactionary circles to seize world domination had marked the maneuverS of the Americans and British at these twc conferences but said that in the actual work accomplished at New York there was the key to inter- national cooperation.
 Tt k clear that these CBig Four and United NationS) decisions can- not correspond fully and entirely with the viewpoint of one individual power" New Times said, since representatives of different coun- tries view the same things in dif- ferent manner.
 Tt is well known that between countries there exists and must ex- ist a difference On a whole number of concrete questions. However, ex- perience in the war has shown that the freedom-loving peoples. despite the difference in their political and public structures and theology may find a common language and meanl of solving the difference existins between them. although naturally these means are not to be found al once and are found sometimes with dimculty.
 Solution Tougher Than OppressieE
 The New Times said that find ing acceptable decisions is mors lengthy and difiicult than forcing the win of some powers on othei countries. But at the same ttma when a policy of dictation may only undermine the foundations of in- ternational cooperation the prac' tice of joint decision of mterna- ton questions is the only possible method of strengthening this co operation.
 ''This practice demands deanit' sacrifices from all participants Every aide has to abandon certain demands from its maximum pro gram and concentrate its enOrts oE working out certain minimum pro grams which are acceptable to tfl partners in the negotiations such q course demands respec of the viewpoint of others and tn interests of others and demands readiness to 90 forward to mee your partners and make certail agreements and compromises"

OPTIMISTIC JUN ADJOURNS
Gang Buster L.J.Voientine Dies ot GA
crin.inoIosist
 Sueeumbs Co Ills; Wish UnfuIfilIed

New York, Dec. l6-CuP)-Lewis | ]. Valentine, who rose from the ranhs as a cop on the local beat to becoih one of the nations leading criminologists, died early today of a liver ailment. He was 64.
 His last and greatest wish had not yet been fulfilled-tne observance of a nationwide crime prevention week | "a project which he had fostered ever since his retirement as New York police commissioner in Sep- tember,. l045, and advocated in his weekly broadcast, Gang Busters"
 Alter his retirement Valentine, ct the request of Gen. Douglas MacAr- thur, went to Japan to reorganize and start a police training program for the Japanese police force.
 KindIiness Stressed as Supreme
 His first lecture to the Japanese police began, "as policeman, your first duty must be to learn kindh- ness. Under no other condition can you become e good policeman" Prior and during the war Japanese police men had been notorious for their brutality. -
 Valentine, e native New Yorker who got his first police training with the New York state guard. always referred to himself and the men an- der him as "eops."
 One of his fay0Eite phrases in pub- lie speeches or press interviews was, I'm q cop, I've always been Q cop and I guess I'll always be c cop When he told that to members of tz1e Japanese police force in his thick, New Yorkese they were unable to understand him.
 Valentine joined New Yorkis ''fin- est" in 1903 as c patrolman. Ten years later he was promoted to 0er- geant and in 1917 he became a lieutenant. He was up for captain cy in 1924, but the then commission CT. Richard E. Enright, passed him by.
 Lost Favor With Tammany
 When George V. Mclaughlin be- came commissioner he made Valen- tine deputy chief inspector, in which post he soon lost favor with the Talnmany administration because of his vigor in raiding vice and gam bling dens as well as numerous Dem- ocratic clubhoaises.
 When Grover Whalen became po- hee commissioner under the admin istration of the late Mayor James J. Walker, Valentine was reduced to a captaincy. He was restored to favor, however, during the ensuing fusion administration and became commis- sioner in 1884.
 Up to the time of his retirement on Sept. IS, 1945, Valentine had been c policeman for 42 years. He was po- lice commissioner for Il years, dur ing which time he was in command Of some 10000 policemen whose phy- sical and mental standards are res garded as among the highest in the country.
 For years Valnetine was in charge of the elaborate police precautions set up for the visits o6 distinguished persons to the. city. from the time Charles A. Lndbergh was welcomed back to the country after his Allan. tic flight in 1927 to the i030 visit oi King George and Queen Elizabeth.

 The wage var strategy will start of with informal discussions among Murray, Reuther, Fitzgerald and lesser union officials, who proDaDy win set the pattern for earnest de- mands on industry later in the week. The conference probably will last a week.
 Reuther May Set Pattern A possible pattern may have been set up in New York by Reuthers United Automobile workers who de- manded a 23.5 cent an hour pay hike as a started and other fringe concessions which may boost the total to 90 cents an hour. Murray, who asked President Tru- mans new council of economic ad- visers to levy heavy taxes Ion the loot of postwar profiteers and spec ulators," kept in close touch with the week long wage discussions o1 the auto workers in New York.

Standard Oil Will
Abandon Drilling

BUXTON, June 1s.-R-The ex-
ploratory oil well being drilled
here by the Standard Oil company
OF New Jersey has reached a
depth of 9,282 feet, according to
engineers, and probably will be
abandoned soon.
Resident Engineer W. E. Elroux
said the drill already had gone
1000 feet beyond original esti-
mates, and that biologists expect
ed to strike granite at any time,
thus ending this phase of the
company's quest for oil on the
Carolina coast.
Seismograph operations already
are underway in coastal waters in
this area as the company continues
it's explorations, and another well
probably will be driven in the next
few months, this one probably
under water.
