was asking the court to throw ou1
the case.
The justice in ruling on this point
said:
"The defendants were notified ir
detail OF what they were charged
/ by the contempt citation. II what
they were charged amounted to
criminal contempt they had notice
of the fact it was criminal contempt
eff it is q mistake not to have
charged criminal contempt specific
| ally, this was not sufficient to vitiate
the case"
Contention Overruled.
Defense attorneys also had raised
the question of freedom of speech
under the court restraining order
Justice Goldsborough said the court
doesn't think the contention af-
fecting freedom of speech matter
of serious consideration"
b"I will repeat what ] said on
wednesday" he said. .This pro-
cedure is for the sole purpose Of
maintaining the status quo pending
a judicial determination. The court
thinks this must have been thor
oughly understood by the union and
by every other interested person in
the United States"
After the trial of Mr.. Lewis and
the union for contempt, which may
last several days, Justice Colds
borough presumably will hear ar
gtUnents on the Government's petit
tion for a temporary injunction to
take the place of the present re-
|straining order. immediately after
court convened today, Mr.. Lewis
counsel filed their answer to the
Governments request for an in.
junction.
Dismissal Motion Argued.
Edmund Burke, one of Mr.. Lewis
counsel, had taken up the argu-
ment on the motion to dismiss the
contempt after Justice Goldsbor-
ough said he would like to hear
further evidence in support OF va
rious points of the dismissal motion.
Justice Goldsborough interrupted
Mr.. Burke to say his strike-restrain-
ing order, which Mr.. Lewis ignored,
resulting In the contempt charge, is
not for the purpose of Furnishing Mr..
Lewis under the Smith-C Connally
Act, which forbids strikes against
the Government.
Then this (contempt citation) is
not a punitive proceeding?" Mr..
Burke asked.
"That is exactly what I said it
was" Justice Goldsborough replied.
Mr.. Burke argued that action
against Mr.. Lewis and the UNIV
was in fact a criminal contempt
proceeding rather than a civil case.
Noncompliance Admitted.
T. G. Townsend, another of Mr..
Lewis counsel, took up the argu-
ment.
Suppose the defendant pleaded
guilty?" Justice Goldsborough asked
Mr.. Townsend after the latter had
talked for a while.
"But this defendant is not going
to do that" replied Mr.. Townsend.
'He did it before you came TO
town." said Justice Goldsborough.

mitted the defendant had not COM

Of guilty under certain circum-
stances. that Is If the Norris-La
Guardia Act does not apply"
Mr.. Townsend said "the burden
is on the Government to prove the
guilt of the defendants beyond all
reasonable doubt"
Court Decisions Read.
Mr.. Townsend read numerous
court decisions in continuing the
effort To prove Justice Goldsborough
wrong In citing Mr.. Lewis for civil
contempt. II the Governments ar
guments and contentious are cor
rect, MIR. Townsend argued, Mr.
Lewis should be charged with GRIM
inal contempt.
Mr.. Sonnett answered the defense
by saying the case against Mr.
Lewis is "both civil and criminal
contempt"
"The Government was prepared
and Is prepared to prove the guilt OF
the defendants (Mr. Lewis and the
union) beyond a reasonable doubt, =
Mr.. Sonnett said.
Meanwhile, the paralyzing soft
coal strike, the cause Of the court
action, entered its ninth day. Al

Health viii Be Factor
In Labor Bargaining,
Says Medical Journal

CHICAGO, Nov. 29.-The Journal
of the American Medical Association
says athe medical profession seems
to be sympathetic to all bona fide
efforts to improve working and
living conditions" and predicted
that health and welfare would be-
come important factors" in future
collective bargaining.
The journal said q survey under
way in the country,s coal mine areas
no doubt would show shortages in
medical personnel and hospital
facilities and the serious deteriora-
tion Of public health administra-
tiop."
Discussing the terms of the United
Mine Workers contract with the
Government, the Journal said in an
editorial that @they range from
long-overdue revision Of safety
codes and workmen's compensation
benefits to direct participation by
the union in the administration of
funds for medical and hospital care
and for general welfare" The edi-
torial added:
'The Council on Industrial Health,
the Board of Trustees and the
House Of Delegates of the American
Medical Association have approved
the general policy of cooperative
health planning by management,
labor and medicine, provided scien-
tific and ethical standards are
maintained.
1.-THE results of the comprehensive
survey and study Of the hospital
and medical facilities, medical
treatment, sanitary and housing
conditions in the bituminous coal
areas are indicative of the needs. |
The purpose q to raise the level Of
these facilities to recognized Amer
tcan standards"
The editorial said that 'iin spite
of impending legislation, health and
welfare are likely to be important
factors In future collective bargain
ing. 2 Both the Council on In
dustriai Health and the Council onI
Medical Service have been actively
concerned with the medical implica-
tions in the coal mine wage agree
ment and the probable extension of
similar contracts to other occupa-
tional groups. Herein lie many op-
portunities for constructive medical
leadership"
The editorial said, "as far as the
coal mine region is concerned, an
early conference representing en-
ployers, employees and the medical
profession is urgently Indicated"

tinetly when Congress was con-
sidering the anti-injunction act In
1882 that amendments were offered
which endeavored expressly to. ex-
clude the United States Govern
ment from application of the act" !"
Justice Goldsborough said.
Those in favor of the act felt that
to expressly include the United
States would defeat the purpose of
the act. 1t was felt the Govern
ment was amply protected"
The justice cited case in which
o court held it was familiar prin-
.ciple that the sovereign is not bound
by any act unless named specifically.
'@The court thinks the Norris-La
Guardia Act did not and does not
apply and therefore the court has
the same rights that it had prior
to passage of the Norris-Ia Guardia
Act and the Clayton Act"
Injunction Right Upheld.
"It is perfectly clear that the
court as a court of equity has the
right to enjoin a labor union about
to do, something against the public
interest and against the interest
of a union itself"
Justice Goldsborough traced the
history of the Norris La Guardia
Act. He said:
''It happens that the court was a
member of Congress at the time the
Norris-La Guardia Act was passed
and debated. I supported every
measure that (Fiorello H.) La Guar
dia was interested in and he sup
ported every measure I believe that
was interested in.
1T is notorious that from about
1890 on, the courts, moved by power
full interests, defeated nearly every
move made by a labor union to OBJ
tain better working conditions"
He pointed out that the act was
passed to correct that situation, to
abolish the use of injunctions to
break unions.
Defense Arguments Rejected.
At another point in his review Of
consideration of the Norris : La
Guardia Act, the court said:
"It was held that the Govern
ment, while it was not specifically
mentioned, was excluded from ap-
plication by implication and that
the act was not to include the Gov
ernment."
In tossing out the dismissal mo-
tion, Justice Goldsborough also
found defense arguments other than
applicability of the Norris-La
Guardia Act to be without founda-
ton.
One of the five points union at
torneys had brought up in their
motion to dismiss the contempt ci-
tation was that the Government
was proceeding on the theory 1t was
a criminal contempt action. They
maintained in such procedure the
allegation of criminal contempt
must be cited specifically s'as such. "
Insists Procedure Was Correct.
Assistant Attorney General John
r. Sonnett, heading Government
counsel, maintained that its pro-
cedure was correct whether 1t was
criminal or civil contempt.
This brought heated argument
from Welly K. Hopkins, one of
several attorneys for the defendants.
He said "the Government cannot
ride two horses in two directions at
the same time" He said Mr.. Son.
nett's position was that he did not
know whether the case was civil
or criminal.
1--WE submit with all earnestness, +"
Mr.. Hopkins shouted to the judge,
'that the Government has made an
admission of error"
MIR. Hopkins said, therefore, he

commissions on arms and atom
bombs under the Security Council,
Mr.. Maxim said the system could well
function under the Assembly instead.
Denmark, Norway and Belgium
quickly indorsed the principle OF
arms reduction. Denmark declared
the Soviet initiative might prove to
be the foundation stone Of coming
international agreement.
ConnaIly to State u. s. Position.
Senator Connally, American dele
gate, was scheduled to state the
American position in general terms,
but he was understood to feel a de-
tailed discussion could not take
place until the Russian plan had
beeh elaborated and clarified.
The British views were made clear
yesterday by Sir Hartley Shawcross,
who declared the proposed system
|of controls and inspections must
not be affected by any Veto" It ap-
peared from his remarks that he
referred to both atomic weapons and
other ornaments.
In view of the intense campaign
OF the small powers against the
| frequent use of the veto by Russia
during the past months, it was re-
garded as certain that many of them
would vigorously protest any at
tempt to extend this power into the
| field OF disarmament controls.
Mr.. Molotov, in advancing yes
terday his new proposals for in
ternational inspections and controls
did not mention the veto, but he
specified that his plan for separate
organs of inspection on atomic
weapons and other classes Of weap-
ons must come within the frame
work. Of the Security Council" !"
This was interpreted as meaning
that any action of the two commits
sions would be subject to Security
Council approval and that any OF
the five permanent members of the
Council would be able to block ac-
ton by the veto.
Two Voice Dissatisfaction.
If this Interpretation is correct,

agreement In the Atomic Energy
Commission since It started work
last June IA.
Both Canada and Australia,
members Of the atomic commission,
expressed dissatisfaction yesterday
with Mr.. Molotoy's proposals and
offered separate measures recom-
mending controls be handled by q
permanent international commits
sion to be set up under treaty or
convention" This would make the
body independent Of the Security
Council.
It was not ilnined diately clear from
MIR. Molotov,s speech whether he
favored continuance OF the Atomic
Energy Commission or whether he
would advocate merging the dis
lcussions of atomic control with the
general arms reduction talks.
Informed quarters said the United
States would vigorously oppose any
move to scuttle the atomic COM
mission and combine the atomic
question with the regulation o1
other ornaments.
French Delegate Alexandra Paro-
di, present chairman Of the atomic
commission. expressed hope that
the disarmament discussions would
mot interrupt or stop the work oi
the atomic group, which he said
was now making some progress and
would make report on its work
next month.
Censurc Of Russia Asked.
Other developments:
/. Delegates to the Political COM
|mittee studied new Australian
proposal to censure Russia for her
frequent use Of the veto and to
recommend to the Big Five that
they make further efforts to re-
strict the use OF this special voting
privilege. The resolution was ex-
|pected to come before a joint meet
ing of the Political and Legal COM
|mittees either today or tomorrow.
2. The Security Council, meeting
for the first time under the chair
manship Of the American delegate,
Herschel v. johnson, was scheduled
to meet at 8 psn. to act on two AS
|sembly measures on the admission OF
new members to the United Nations.
One Of these was an Australian pro-
|posal that the Council appoint a
committee to consult with a similar
Assembly committee to work out a
definite yardstick by which member
ship applications could be judged.
The other was request that the
Council reconsider its rejection OF
the applications of Ireland, Portu-
|gal, Trans Jordan, Albania and
Outer Mongolia.
