Seek To Rebuild Salmon Runs

GAP Special Washington Service)
 WA ASHIN GTON, PD - The House appropriations committee recommended Tuesday $1,1O0,O0O to start a program of salmon re- mobilization in the lower Colum- bia river.
 The budget bureau suggested S1,450,000.
 The proposal is in the army civil functions appropriations bill but the fish and wildlife service would spend the money. The service would work with Washington and Oregon on the program.
 The action was taken because of fears that construction of the McNary dam will further reduce salmon runs in the lower river.

Lewis Wins First Triumph in Three Trips to Justice

WASHINGTON, June 22.-lR- Justice T. Alan Goldsborough to- day gave John L. Lewis a legal go-ahead for his $100 monthly pension plan for miners.
 Goldsborough dismissed plea of Ezra Van Horn, trustee for op- orators on the United Mine Work CTS Welfare Fund, for court or der to block payment of pensions for retired miners.
 The Judge said he found the proposal. for payments. reasonable and proper"
 For Lewis, it marked his first triumph on three trips into Judge Goidsborough's court. Twice before he had been there only to be fin- cd for contempt of court for fail ure to end walkouts ia obedience to Gnldsborough orders.
 It was a dispute over pensions that brought about the costly six weeks strike last spring.
 The proposed system of payments was evolved by Lewis and Senator Fl. Styles Bridges (R-NH). Bridges became neutral member of the Wclfcre Board and sided with Lew is in setting up the plan.
 Van Horn refused to approve the payments and went into court to ask that it be declared illegal
 The plan provides $l0o a month for UNIV members who are 62 years of age or older and who have worked in the pits for at least 20 years.
 Lewis and Bridges agreed to set aside $5,00O,000 of the S45,000, 900 fund to start the pension plan.

DEWEY GETS BIG BREAK,
 CONVENTION
Pennsylvania oriie Son WithdraWs in Fay-
 or of New Yorker
By JACK BELL

PHILADELPHIA, June 22.--lR-- Thomas E. Dewey got the first big break of the Republican National Convention today when Pennsyl- vania's favorite son. Senator Ed ward Martin, suddenly withdrew in Dewey's favor.
 How many of Pennsylyania's massive 73-yote delegation Martin can carry with him was the big question. Asked this question, Mar tin said.
 T do not know. I have made no estimate"
 Seventy-two of the delegates have been pledged to Martin.
 The chairman of the delegation, Gov. Duff, is reported to be for Senator Vandenberg first and then for Senator Taft of Ohio, if Van denberg seems unlikely to make the grade.
 The Martin statement came af- ter an hour-long conference of key Pennsylvania leaders, behind clos cd doors. Martin also conferred with Dewey.
 It came as a big surprise.
 Earlier Dewey won another point on which there had been a lot of Eackstage maneuvering. It was announced that Arizona would yield to New York when the time came to make nominations.
 That means Dewey's name will be the first to go beiofe the con vention. Alabama will pass when the alphabetical roll is called.
