Summoned Sherman Himself.
Mr.. Matthews said that it was
he who summoned Admiral Sher-
man to Washington just before

II did not ask that he testify

would like to come to Washington

liked his Mediterranean Fleet as

an admiral and preferred to stay
at sea. He added. however, that
he was naval officer, that was

therefore. cheerfully take any as

me on him."

Steel Settlements Fail
To Bring Progress
In Coal Negotiations

A strike-end1ng agreement with
another steel company spurred
efforts today to wind up the So
day-old stoppage in the Nations
coal fields.
Government mediation officials
have expressed the belief right
along that the coal situation will
soon be in hand once labor peace
Is achieved in the steel industry.
While the steel strike picture
grew steadily brighter, however,
the coal situation still looked dark.
Federal Mediator Cyrus Ching
reported no progress toward set
tlement yesterday after a meet
ing with Southern coal operators.
He called in Harry M. Moses of
the United States Steel Corp. to-
day for a fresh try.
Ching Has No Deadline.
United States Steel, the biggest
steel firm in the country, has its
own captive" coal mines. 1t has
been deeply involved in both the
coal and steel disputes. without
any sign OF settlement in either.
Mr.. Ching said that after talk
ing to Mr.. Moses he planned to see
spokesmen for Northern. Mid
western and Far Western coal
mines. The Federal mediator
said he planned to wind up that
phase of his strike-settling efforts
by tomorrow night.
But he emphasized that he has
no deadline in mind for asking the
direct Intervention of President
Truman in the coal situation.
While the operators were talk
ing with Mr.. Ching. John L. Lewis
was in Chicago meeting with his
200-man Policy Committee. He
told newsmen that yesterdays
session produced no conclusions,
but added that another meeting
was on tap for today.
Separate Talks Rejected.
Mr.. Lewis said he had asked
Gov. Adlai Stevenson of Illinois
to sponsor a conference between
the union and Illinois coal op-
orators so "the public can form
its own opinion of what's going
on" Gov. Stevenson said such a
meeting would be pointless.
