LEWIS STRIPPED OF
 VICE-PRESIDENCY OF AFL AT STORMY BATTLE OF FED

SAN FRANCISCO - John L.. Lewis. stripped of a viee-presidan- cy in the AFL after an historic outburst of name-calling among Uhe Federatiou's top leaders, faced still another battle this week over his miscellaneous collection of uu- ions in Mine Workers District 90.
 Underneath the current of bitter ness which swept the 66th annual convention was the growing threat that Lewis still might take a walk with bis 6UO,0UU United Mine Workers. over the District 5o con troverys.
 His organizers have been step ping on lot of toes within the Federation. even since his return To the AFL in January 1946.
 But anti-Lewis forces, eheered by the ease with which their over whemng numbers set down the UMW president Tuesday, went right in with plans to bring the jurisdictional squabbles with Dis rict 50 before a tribunal winch he could not control
 The fight was due to come over conflicting resolutions offered by majority of the resolutions com mittee. headed by q longtime Lewis critic. John P. Frey of the Metal Trades Department and minority represented b y Thomas Kennedy, Secretary-Treasurer fl the UMW.
 Lewis took the gloves off in his first convention speech Tuesday. stiuging the leadership into fight mood by calling them 'intellec- tualIy fat and stately asses and adding:
 On this issue l don't think the Federation has head. l think gs neck has just grown mp and hair ed oyer.'
 The issue he referred to was the signing of -Commifnist aLi- davits. That's what started tae convention floor battle which was rerhaps the hottest since Lew s toppled William L. Hutcheson, the Carpenters boss, with one punch at the Atlantic City convention in 1885. Lewis took his miners out Of the Federation after that and formed the CIO He fell out with the CIO after 194O, however, and made his peace again with the Federation six years later.
 Huteheson, who helped to per- suade Lewis to get back in the AF'L and backed him in the affidavit fight within the 15-man executive council, failed to vote with him when the convention, by standing amend it's constitution and do al way with it's 13 vice-presidencies.

best we'll in the field had not pro-
duced more than 800 barrels during
the first "a hours after it was shot

In 1914, two years before McKee's

oil and water when drilling for salt
water on Duck creek not far from

Oil Boom Here
The first oil well drilled in the Al

When Lima factories began using the

were opened which made 200 barrels
a day Other wells followed, some
bringing in 600 barrels daily. Next
year Lima had 1900 more inhabit-
ants and its 11e oil wells were pro-
ducing nearly 5000 barrels day.
There were over 800 wells in the AL

We Mourn Lord Nelson

BY Elmo Scott Watson

We Mourn Lord Nelson
THE next time you see on the street
i sailor from the United States
navy, on shore leave, take second
look at his costume. Those three
white bands on the collar of his blue
jacket uniform are not just for decora-
tive purposes, They were originally
adopted by the British navy to COM
memorate the three decisive victories
of that great naval hero, Lord Nelson
at Trafalgar, Copenhagen and Abou-
kir. Having gained our heritage of the
sea from England, we have inherited
and adopted some of her traditions.
Hence the honor to Lord Nelson.
Our American sailors also join with
their British cousins in perpetual
mourning for Nelson. For that black
neckerchief Is a badge of mourning for
him. And for the same reason officers
adopted the black necktie as a part Of
both the service and the evening dress
uniform.
