In Newly Found 1947 Letter On Endinq Oak Ridae Strike
by the Associated Press

OAK RIDGE. Tenn. May 20
officials of the Atomic Energy
Commission and the Laborers and
Hodcarriers' Union today await
outcome of weekend appeals to
end a wildcat strike which has
halted vast construction projects
here.
Acc spokesmen said they hope
good force will show up for
work on a 1927 million atomic
plant project. but union officials
who, have tried to end the FIVE
day-old walkout said they expecI
few of the. 4 500 workers back be-
fore Wednesday-if then.
The men have been promised
protection by all law enforcement
agencies If they will return to
work" an Acc spokesman said.
Fred H. Stratton, business agent
of Local 818 of the union, said.
however, he doesn't think more
than a handful will return until
after the Memorial Day week
end"
The laborers started the strike
which has been condemned by
union leaders as unauthorized
and illegal" when they walked off
the job last Wednesday. The mass
walkout apparently was in pro-
test against failure of an atomic
board to hand down
an immediate decision after a
wage dispute hearing Tuesday.

Farmer Who Wouldn't Talk
Free Again, Still Not Talking

When Phillips was charged with
violating the Injunction. he was
sent to jail for five days. Some
time later. Phillips again was
charged with violating the injunc-
ton. So he went to Jail for anoth-
er 10 days for contempt of court.
But that didn't finish things.
Phillips sold his farm recently.
and Mr.. Kerns obtained a judg-
ment for damages of SITS he said
resulted from the streams diver
sion. Phillips wouldn't pay it and
he also wouldn't tell where he had
the $1,000 deposited he got from
the sale of his property.
So he was sent to jail until he
either talked or paid. He said he
wouldn't do either. and he sat
there for Is days.
But Phillips was released Sat-
urday night-on a notion by Mr..
Kerns before Trial Justice Graves.
Just why the tight-lipped farm
er was released still isn't known
because Phillips still isn't talking.

vestigating alleged vote frauds in
the 1946 primary election.
Many of the questioned ballots
had been marked for Enos Axtell
a congressional candidate backed
by President Truman.
The President supported Mr.
Axtell over the incumbent Repre-
sentative Roger C. Slaughter. MIR

the Missouri Fifth District Demo-
cratic primary but lost to Repub-
lican Albert Reeves, jr., in the gen.
