Supreme Court To Slap John l.. Lewis Down

WASHINGTON, (P)-The Stu preme Court Slapdown of John L.. Lewis appeared certain today to preserve peace in the coal fields this spring.
 In all probability, the miners will stick to their jobs at least un- til July l, when the soft coal op- orators are due to regain the fed erally held pits.
 Taking advantage of this respite, the government is expected to re- double efforts to get Lewis United Mine Workers and the operators into wage negotiations in the hope the midsummer transfer will not bring another shutdown.
 The prime consideration is that the precedent-making coal strike case-even though Lewis and his union stand convicted of contempt is not yet out of the courts.
 It is on this fact the likelihood rests that the 100000 AFL miners will keep on digging coal for the next three and one-half months.
 Lewis, genial yet distant, would not reveal his plans at once. His lawyers could seek a rehearing The supreme court seldom grants one.
 But the tribunals to ? decision definitely blocks any strike action until the case completes one more major phase. Federal judge T. Alan Goldsborough, who handed down the original contempt ruling affirmed by the high court, still must hold trial of the central issue
 Did Lewis have the right to break off ehis contract with tn government last November, there by precipitating the l7-day strike?

take from two to four years, after the start of construction, to produce Alaskan neWSprint on a large scale. He said transportation could be improved by operation of a railroad car-ferry or barge service between southeastern Alaska mill sites and Prince Rupert Canadian rail head in British Columbia.
 Chapman said the Alaskan h. dian population would contribute labor to the industry.
 "A number of responsible con- cerns are now Investigating the industry" Chapman continued. Present indications are more en- couraging than at any time in 20 years. The establishment of the
 industry appears inevitable"
 Chapman said many contractors and publishers have approached the interior department recently for information on Alaskan pulp and paper possibilities.
 "One major contracting firm now has a crew of surveyors in and has applied for a pre- power permit" Chapman said.

Government May Develop Alaska
 NewsprintIndustry

WAShlNI1ON tHD - OSCdT l.. Chapman, undersecretary of the interior, suggested today one means of relieving the newsprint and paper shortage would be for the federal government to develop Alaskan hydroelectric power.
 He told a Senate small business subcommittee Investigating the shortage that Alaska could supply from 20 to 25 per cent of this coun- try's needs but that paper mills require considerable electric pow CT, not now available.
 The department, he said, plans detailed surveys and engineering studies of the power possibilities and Eff the situation warrants, to seek the necessary authority and funds for development of the hy- droelectric power in this area by a federal or Territorial agency"
 Chapman told the group that while the Alaskan pulp industry will serve small business, I regret to say that in itself, it is not cap able of development by small business"
 He said the industry must be de- velOped ''by very substantial fi- nancial interests able to assume heavy expenditures" He estimated construction and equipment costs of plant at S20,O00,O0O.
 Chapman said each mill unit would require 25,000 horse power initially and twice that amount ul- timately. Sites already surveyed would provide 100000 horsepower, but the largest so far studied has year long capacity of 32,000 horse power, he said adding:
 Some interested concerns have indicated that the burden of devel- oping the requisite power, in addi- tion to financing the milling and manufacturing facilities, is so great that they would prefer to have the necessary electric energy developed and supplied by a pub lie power agency"
 "The interior department is now reviewing all existing data on the hydroelectric resources of south eastern Alaska with the view of working out the most practical and economic means of supplying the power required.
 Chapman estimated it would

SEATTLE, R-Overall reduc- tions in port of Seattle terminal rates, effective next month, were announced today. The slash will bring waterfront cargo and hand ling charges to a parity with San Francisco's, and twill mean tens of millions dollars in benefits to this area in a few years" Port Manager Warren D. Lamport as- serted.

lieve Tech will look with favor
on returning to the Cotton

This official also pointed to
the financial angles of the Cot
ton Bowl. "This year we will
pay the visiting team between
$4,000 and $75,0 600. We are able
to pay a larger amount than
others because we give each
team 43 IL per cent of the gross
gate. Rental, tax and a share

come out of the remainder. Our
operating expenses are taken

and radio rights"
The Cotton Bowl believes No
tre Dame might want to come
here because the Ramblers
haven't played in Texas in more
than 80 years, because Notre
Dame is not eligible for the Rose

WADE SEARCHING
FOR DUKE CENTER

DURHAM, Nov. 1O-(P)-Duke
Coach Wallace Wade began
searching for a center today in
his forward wall against the Uni
versity of South Carolina in
Dukes next game here Saturday.
AS the Blue Devils began pre-
paration for their important con-
ference game with the Game
cocks, the squad was without the
services of its two top pivotmen,
Fletcher Wall and Carol Perkin-
son, and both may have to sit out
the South Carolina battle.
+ Perkinson, the Asheville soph-
more who filled in for Wall as
the Blue Devils bowed to Missouri
last week, was sidelined with a
broken hand, and the number
two center will probably be out
indefinitely. Wall who suffered a
foot injury at Georgia Tech,
Watched the entire Missouri game
from the bench and may be out
again this weekend.
If neither Wall nor Perkinson
are ready Saturday, Duke will
have to depend on two reserves,
Jack Gleason, and Him Gibson,
and both have played only a
limited time this season.
Coach Wade dismissed most of
his regulars early today follow
ing the heavy pounding handed
them by the Tigers last week, but
the remaining Blue Devils work
ed long and hard in preparing for
Saturdays game. Duke got look
at South Carolina plays as run by
the Jayvees and then practiced
