Lewis Says He Hopes
For Coal Negotiations
Without Strife, Loss
By jones Y. Newton

John L. Lewis said today that
he hoped his United Mine Work
ers can negotiate q new work
contract with the coal industry
without strife or economic loss
and for once without the i'm
position Of oppressive legal sane
tions by Government"
Mr.. Lewis ended q three day
meeting with his 26o-member
Policy Committee without indi-
eating when new contract negoti-
ations with the coal operators
would be started. The policy
meeting was called TO plan STRAIT
egy and map demands to be made
on the operators in the negotia-
tions.
The present soft-coal contract
expires June 80.
The UNIV chief called a press
conference in front of the mem
bers of the Policy Committee and
released cryptic statement which
gave no indication of his plans or
demands to be made in contract
talks with the operators. He re-
fused to say when negotiations
would start or whether he would
ask the operators to meet with
him.
All Questions Parried.
Mr.. Lewis banded words and
parried all questions from report
ers. who sought to draw from him
something about his plans for con-
tract negotiations. He was in high,
good humor and made frequent
wisecracks, much to the amuse-
ment Of his Policy Committee
members.
The brief statement said that
the Policy Committee has ex-
amined the expressions and de-
sires of the membership (of the
UNIV affecting future contract
negotiations as revealed in lob
resolutions originating in local un-
ions and district conventions.
LAS result" the statement con-
tinued. "the executive officers and
conference representatives of the
union are fully informed and ad-
vised as to the policies to be fol-
lowed, and are granted full war
rant Of authority in the effort to
attain desired objectives.
Asked About Sanctions"
"The Policy Committee joins
with all other Americans in the
constructive hope that a new
agreement in the anthracite and
bituminous coal industry can be
consummated without strife or
economic loss. and, for once, with
out the imposition of oppressive
legal sanctions by Government" t."
A reporter asked Mr.. Lewis what
he meant by Oppressive legal
sanctions" :. -
'sThe utilization of the Infamous
and vicious Taft Hartley law and
sanctions" Mr.. Lewis replied.
The use~of' brutal and oppressive
injunctions whereby the mine
wo, kers have been convicted at
the whim of the judiciary. as has
been the rule in the past.a@
It had been indicated that Mr..
Lewis would demand of the oper-
ators In this years negotiation
higher pay. a shorter work week
and other means of spreading en-
ployment among the miners and
an increase in the 20 cents per ton
welfare and retirement fund pay
ments from. the operators.
Operators Meet.
Meanwhile. representatives of
all the Nations soft coal operators
were holding their own strategy
meeting at the Shoreham Hotel.
A spokesman for the mine
owners said they had received no
word from Mr.. Lewis as to a start
of contract negotiations. He added
that the operators may have
something to say later in the day.

Today 10 Halt Removal
OF Phone in Fay Drive
District Judge Dsrid A. P.ne
was expected to sign an order to-
day enjointns the Chesapeake a.
Potomac Telephone Co. from cut
ting OF a phone involved in United
States Attorney George Morris
Fay's gambling drive.
In the first Of many such pend
ing cases. Judge Pine indicated he
would sign An order for a prelini-
nary injunction. thus keeping the
telephone company from rennos-
ing the phone Of Nathan Miller
Of Avondale. Md
When the order was presented
to him yesterday by Attorney
Myron @. Enrich. representing
Mr., Miller. Judge Pine rejected
ii. declaring the reasons 1t set out
for supporting the Injunction were
broader than he intended.
32i Phones Involved.
MIR. Miller's telephone is one Of
324 Mr.. Fay marked for discon-
tinuance in letters TO the tele-
phone company. He asked for
their removal on basis Of com
patent evidence" they were used
to aid and abet District gambling
violations.
Yesterday Mr.. Erich revamped
the order. making the finding OF
facts and conclusions Of law con-
form to Judge Pines wishes. He
then sought the approval OF As
sistant United States Attorney
Ross O'Donoghue and Attorney
Howard Boyd. representing the
telephone company.
Indications were that the Gov
ernment would appeal the case,
However, in the ordinary course
of events. 1t may be many months
before the matter goes to trial for
a permanent injunction. since
there is a heavy backlog Of civil
cases in the District.
No Proof Found.
Observers thought Judge Pine S
decision would have little bearing
on dozens OF similar cases pending,
since each will be based on diff
ferent facts and must be weighed
on its own merits.
In the Miller case, Judge Pine
said there was no proof the tele-
phone had been used to abet
District gambling. but that there
might be justification for the
telephone company to remove it
on it's own initiative under Mary
land law.
Yesterday the Public Utilities
Commission postponed until 10
a m. May 6 a hearing to suspend
that part of a new telephone COM
pany tariff permitting the COM
pany to remove phones believed
used for illegal purposes.
Lawyer Asks Delay.
Originally scheduled for tomor-
row, the hearing was postponed on
the request Of John L. Ingoldsby
jr.. counsel for Harry and Bertha
Katz. 3l69 Walbridge place NV.
who petitioned for the hearing.
Mr.. Ingoldsby said he had been
too busy with other cases to pre-
pare FOR the hearing.

buckmaster Delivers
Plea 10 Rubber Union
By the Assoeioisd Press

TORONTO, Sept. AL. s.
Buskmaster Of Akron. Ohio, ousted
president of the United Rubber
Workers (CIO). called on union
membership today to "rise up and
fight to restore and preserve an
honest, aggressive. responsible
union," and to eliminate "any tint
Of totalitarianism."
Mr.. Buckmaster made his plea
here on the third day Of the
URWA annual convention. He was
tried and expelled by the union
last May on charges brought by
the Pottstown Pa.) local that he
abused his power as president.
Mr.. Buckmaster read to the
convention a prepared statement
Of more than $500 words which he
described as a memorandum
brief" in support Of his appeal to
be reinstated. Those who oppose
his reinstatement indicated a brief
Of similar length will be presented
this afternoon. A vote is expected
late tonight.
The question Of Mr.. Buckmater'
restoration to Office was brought
to the floor Of the convention after
stormy debate yesterday by a vote
of 318-279. Some union sources
said this may indicate that the
majority of the delegates are
sympathetic to Mr.. BackmaSter's
appeal. . ssSzs5
