UNIV Notifies Court
OF Order Compliance

New contract negotiations between
John L. Lewis and soft coal opera
tors were a step nearer today fol-
lowing action by United Mine Work
ers' counsel formally notifying JUS
tice T. Alan Goldsborough in Dis
trict Court that notice ending the
Government contract had been
Withdrawn.
Welly K. Hopkins, UNIV attorney,
told Justice Goldsborough that the
union and Mr.. Lewis had complied
fully with the recent Supreme Court
order instructing the defendants to
withdraw the notice terminating the
Government contract. That notice
brought on the coal strike last fall
and threatened another strike
April l.
Mr.. Hopkins also asked the court
to return $4,000, 900 of the $500, ,000
which the union posted in securities
early in December to cover the con-
tempt fine levied on the UNIV by
Justice Goldsborough. The Supreme
Court reduced the fine to $700, 900
provided there was compliance with
the order to withdraw the contract
ending notice.
Justice Goldsborough Is expected
to issue an order within the next
two days stating that the Supreme
Court mandate had been complied
with and instructing the District
Court clerk to release the additional
collateral to the union.
That order, it was indicated, will
serve as signal to Secretary of
Interior Krug, the Federal mines
boss, to request Mr.. Lewis and pri-
vate mine operators to begin con-
tract talks here.

The OPA may toss out nearly 5000
minor price control cases to speeo
up prosecution Of suits against fla
grant violators and black market
operators" involving more thar
SIS, 100000 in possible damages.
William E. Remy, deputy OPA
commissioner for enforcement, tolo
reporters Congress will be asked fol
informal approval of the plan which
he said calls for:
l. An intensive drive to wind uE
prosecution of about 800 criminal
cases, 1872 cases involving over
charges in which damages totaline
S65, 5,913,000 are claimed and about
1900 cases involving violation OF

2. Granting amnesty to about 1905
defendants in minor" cases, in
cluding those accused of making
overcharges totaling up to $4,000
All these 13,075 pending case:
involve reported violations of OPA
regulations governing commodities
and services ON which controls were
ended last November. They do not
include several thousand" involv-
ing rent, sugar and rice controls.
Mr.. Remy said: Even if we don't
get congressional approval We'll
have to go ahead and drop some
of the cases, for we don't have the
staff nor the money to continue
them. We have the right to knock
them out in the public interest, but
we'd like Congress to approve it."
A general amnesty bill covering

Arthur received without comment
today news of a resolution by Rep
Iresentative Van Zandt, Republican,
of Pennsylvania asking President
Truman to recall the supreme COM
mander to the United States for
at least 80 days.
1t was believed at headquarters,
however, that the news was welcome
to Gen. Macarthur, since it is known
that he is anxious that Congress and
other Washington officials be fully
informed of his recent proposals for
future handling of Japan.
In introducing his resolution, Mr..
Van Zandt said the views of Gen.
Macarthur on "our national secur-
|ity, inf1ltration of foreign influences
and the decline of morality would
be a "stabilizing influence" for the
American people.
