The last timeGarner was sche-

John H. 20 Today, Plans Family Party

~ John L. Lewis enters his list
year and the biggest battle, of his
career as fit as ever, according to
reporters who see him every day.
Like every champ his next battle
is always the biggest.)
Retains His Old Vigor.
He has lost a little weight. In
some of his photographs he looks
older and more tired but those
who know him say that he has
as much vigor as he had when
he was battling Franklin D.
Roosevelt.
They support this by pointing
out his idea of a vacation. It is
to take the wheel of an automo-
bile and drive across the continent.
He drove out to Springfield, Ill.,,
again and again last year to
visit his mother during her long,
final illness.
Mr.. Lewis new attitude toward
injunctions may not be as profit
able financially to the District of
Columbia as was his stand in
former years. His refusal to abide
by previous court orders resulted
in fines against him and his
union. The District, which gets
go per cent of all fines levied in
District Court, was credited with
about $1,3o0.OOo on that occasion.
His Salary Has SCARED.
He has overcome the pinch of
imitation. In 1948 the union
doubled his annual salary in
creasing it from $25, 900 to $50, 900.
He is probably the most photo
graphed man In public life outside
the presidency-but a request of
a national magazine for his baby
pictures recently brought the
answer that there hadn't been any

house in the early days of the

quite stir, as did his purchase of
the University Club Building at
Fifteenth and streets NV. for
the United Mine Workers Offices.
But Washington must be getting
used to John L. His unions re-
ported recent acquisition of Wash
ington's oldest bank caused hardly
a ripple. Chat the union was the
unnamed purchaser of the con-
trolling interest in the National
Bank of Washington's stock has
never been announced or denied
and the recent election of A. D.
Lewis, Mr.. Lewis brother, and
Welly Hopkins, the unions lawyer,
to the board of the bank was
taken as confirmation.)
Doesn't Go outa Any More.
Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth
introduced him into society and
the late Mrs. Evalyn Walsh Nc
Lean lionized him, but he doesn't
go out much anymore.
In view Of the telegram he sent
to the United Mine Workers re-
gional Offices yesterday ordering
the men back after outlining all
the things that had been done to
hint is little hard to see how
he can have a happy birthday.
But he may. His official biogra-
ply, put out by the union, says:
He feels at home with children
and knows how to please them. y
He'd better pay more attention
to Jennifer.

President Gordon Davis of the

Neither John Busarello, head of
UNIV District S, in the rich Pitts

injunction action.
At Canton. Ill, Bernard Beas-
ley, a UNIV district board member
also doubted the miners would 60

"They are pretty well fed up
with the position the operators
have taken. I doubt if they'd go
back now without a contract" he
said. 1 rsE s.
The situation. meanwhile, in
West virginia's southern fields
was definitely question mark.
About 5000 miners are employed
in that general area.
President George Titler of UNIV
District 20 at Beckley, declined to
comment. So did President Will

miners have not been affected by

Union leaders said they did not
think the order would affect the

greater dangers that will flow
from further delay. A full op-
portunity has been afforded the
operators and the union to work
out their own difficulties. A

vened. The obligation entrusted

as the agent of the employees, to

1t was the "non-pecuniary" de-
mands on the operators which
Judge Keech, in his second in
junction, ruled Mr.. Lewis must
drop, at least until the National
Labor Relations Board has ruled
on the legality.
The demands, all part of the
old mine contract, include pro-
visions for unlimited memorial"
work stoppages, a clause which
states the miners will work only
when liable and willing" a union
shop which does not comply with
the law, and a welfare fund lin
tied to union members, only.
Would Weaken Lewis Hand.
Federal officials said the court
ban on those demands will weaken
Mr.. Lewis bargaining hand If the
operators agree to meet him this
week. The Lewis telegram, sug-
gesting resumption of bargaining
at IL am. Wednesday was di-
rected to George H. Love of the
Northern and Western operators,
Joseph E. Moody of the Southern
producers and Harry M. Moses Of
the United States Steel Corp.
Mr.. Lewis and the UNIV twice
in the past have been fined a
total of $2,130,000 for ignoring
District Court strike-endin in

On neither occasion, however,
did Mr.. Lewis make the effort to
comply with the court order that
he did in his message to union
District heads last night. 1t may
be difficult this time to make
contempt action stick, should the
Government undertake it in event
