Grocery ExecutiOeS FaUor OPA Extension

The flood of letters and telegrams from homemakers petitioning mern- bers of Congress and the Senate to extend OPA is Q reflection of the experiences of many women gained in World War One. No one knows, better than the woman in the home, just what can happen when prices run away. She is the one who is con- stantly confronted with budget problems. She must make every ef- fort to feed the men of the family as well as the women of the family in the manner to which they have become accustomed.
 Many of the women expressing opinions on the subect are those who recall what happened after World

undertaken no move except media tion, to force settlement. If any was planned, it was not revealed.
 Segments of the coal industry,
 unimpressed by pending
 mediation proposal, waited for
 Congress to eliminate at least
 two of the issues blocking settle
 ment.
 Leaders of John L. Lewis United Mine Workers, however, stood pat on their contract demands and made it clear that they thought labor legislation would not produce coal from the now strikebound mines. But like the operators, the union also appeared unimpressed by a Government mediator's sug- gestion for breaking the present deadlock in negotiations.
 Mine operators were looking to Congress the Administration or both to take the initiative in set ting the strike. Some have been expecting the Government to pro- pose specific settlement plan.
 Those hoping for Congressional action wanted legislation to outlaw UNIV. demands for unionization of supervisors and for a royalty" assessment on coal production to finance a union welfare fund.-
 There was some speculation
 that President Truman might
 intervene directly and call both
 sides to the White House to ask
 acceptance of settlement - formula. It was doubted that
 the Presidents labor advisors
 would rely on. legislation.
 The mediation proposal was scheduled for further discussion to- day although it was believed in some quarters that the union had rejected it in a policy committee statement reaffirming original con- tract demands.
 Mediator Paul w. Fuller told re- porters yesterday that he had sub- mitted a proposal but did not dis close it's terms. He first said it pro- Vided for the miners to return to work but later reported it would not end the strike immediately but would clear the way.
 Management sources, however, in- sisted that Fuller's only proposal was put in the form of a question asking whether the operators would pay union claims for back overtime if the UNIV. agreed to submit a more explicit set of demands.
 The overtime claims, estimat-
 ed by the union at more than
 S3,O0O,0O0, have snagged the me-
 gOtiatiOns for more than a week.
 They involved a dispute over
 whether the miners should be
 paid overtime rates for four
 Saturdays after idle holidays
 last year.
 Other developments:
 1. Chairman Zebulon Weaver, (D,-N.CD, of a House Judiciary Subcommittee said the group was ready to report bill to the full committee to outlaw royalties such as the UNIV has demand ed as means of financing a welfare fund. Weaver accused Lewis of stalling on an invitation to testify on the bill.
 9 Sen William F. Knowland, R.-Cal0, notified the Senate that unless the coal strike was settled by tomorrow he would ask the Senate to consider labor legisla- tion to meet the problem head on here and now."'
 5. A decision of the Wage Stabilization Board, involving the Brotherhood of Electrical work CTS, indicated that the UNIV. de- mand for controlled wel- fare fund might run afoul of sta- hilization rules unless the demand

BY ]. Mcknight

We wish to extend our thanks
and appreciation to the fine job
that Cecil Shufelt did in the ar
rangements for our Unit in the
Labor Day parade.
Jack Fellers, Dept. 81, has
given up the idea of buying new
glasses. Since the company had
the windows washed in his de-
partment, he is able to see the
sunshine and passing parade.
There is good reason for the
big smile and flushed face of
Brother Courtwright, material
move man in Dept. 80. He is the
proud father of baby boy. Con-
gratulations to you and your
wife.
Herman Nieman, Dept. 6, got
his fingers in the band saw and
fractured them. Another argu-
ment won by the machine age.
Let's be more careful on the job.
Not having worked with Bob
Benson, Dept. 100, since he was
made foreman about year ago,
we had that opportunity last
week when he filled in for Meir-
ing. The foreman training hasn't
changed him one bit. He still
has the same old line and the
air won't clear up for weeks to
come.
Al Carnes, Dept. 36, has just
returned from a fishing trip in
northern Canada. Al reports the
fish even crawl into the boat to
get out of the congestion in the
water where the fish are so pIen-
tiful there isn't room for them
to turn around.
The chain department is
breaking apart link by link. We
wonder what Gus Zimmerman
will do when this department
closes down. After all, 13 years
is long time to be in chains.
There is another parade COM
ing up in the near future. The
parade to the polls to vote. Join
the PAC and get in line for this
big event.
Leonard Klatt, who worked in
the shop during his leave from
the Army, has returned to Ger
many to join the forces of occu-
patton. Good luck, Leonard.
