If things appear bright for early
settlement of the coal issues. the
inquiry board probably will ask the
President for postponement of the
report deadline.
However, if it appears that nego-
tiations are just as locked as ever
the board will submit its report to
Mr. Truman late today. That will
be followed tomorrow or Friday by
a request of Attorney General Clark
for another injunction against Mr.
Lewis, the UNIV and probably the
operators. Such court order would
be designed to head off strike or
lockout after the coal contract
expires.
The Government is anxious to
obtain the anti-strike order, if un-

fore the 100000 miners begin their
annual Today vacation Saturday.
