MARSHALL
 PLAN GOES
 UP, PARIS
Three Foreign Ministers fo Discuss Proposal-SnYd-
 CT Gives Views

WASHINGTON, June 25.-tR- Secretary of Treasury Snyder made plain today that he does not view the Marshall plan for European re- covery as giving foreign countries a blank check on the United States for what they need.
 Snyder told news conference that Secretary of State Marshall has not extended an implied invi- tation to other countries to tell this nation what they need or want.
 My interpretation. is that he is asking them to make a self-inven- tory and see what they can do for themselves" Snyder told reporters.
 Meanwhile, Marshall said at an other news conference that he does not plan to have 9 representative attend the talks of British, French and Russian Foreign Ministers con- corning his European recovery pro gram. These discussions are sched- uled to begin in Paris Friday.
 Asked whether he plans to have an observer there. Marshall said he does not.
 He flatly declined to give out any more information now about these proposals. When a questioner re- ferred to the program as your proposal" Marsh interrupted quickly to say the reporter meant the American government proposal.

THOUSANDS OF MINERS
 NOW IDLE
Forty Thousand Shipyard Workers Are Threat
 ening 10 Strike
By The Associated Press)

Work stoppages made idle at least l76,000 soft coal miners and threat ened a slowup in steel. railroad and other coal-using industries today following enactment of the nations new labor bill.
 Less than 24 hours after enact ment of the Taft Hartley labor law miners began leaving their jobs in 10 States. Tn Washington the Ma tional Coal Association, an operators group, said full-scale nation wide strike appeared to be developing apparently in clear violation of the new law.
 In other labor developments since enactment of the labor act. strike of 10000 shipyard workers threat ened and Omahas big Union Stock yards Company are virtually idle following a strike of packinghouse workers.
 In Washington, the Justice De- partment sought to determine whether the 176000 miners left their jobs freely or upon advice of leaders of the AFL- United Mine Workers Union.
 There appeared some evidence that the walkouts were breaking up with the return of 50 workers at mine in Monogalia County, w. Va, and a prediction by a UNIV leader fin West Virginia where 31 900 were idle. that half that number would end their stoppage today.
 However, with 100000 soft coal miners scheduled to start 10-day vacation at midnight Friday. there appeared no indication that the men who left their jobs in protest of the new labor act would go back to work before that time. Government control of the pits ends on June 30 and there was no sign of revived contract talks between John L. Lewis. UNIV President, and oper- ators.
