LIAR! CRIES LEWIS Al GOAL
 SPOKE
Why Noi" Get Personal, Union Head Shouts-Hear- ina Was 10 Be Informal

WASHINGTON, Feb. 8-tR- John L. Lewis called coal man George H. Love liar by the clock at a Presidential boards hearings today on the coal contract dispute. Lewis flared up explosively at the first question board chairman David L. Cole put to Love, the spokesman for the soft coal op- orators.
 Cole asked whether Lewis ever had presented any specific con- tract demands to the mine opera tors.
 Love said he was informed by Cyrus s. Ching (Federal Mediation Chief) that it was the union bar gaining technique to say that you men own the mines, have the men in the palm of my hand-what do you bid?'"
 Lewis jumped up and leveled oil at Love across the table:
 That's an infamous and del1ber- ate lie. I said we represented the men. I say to you, George Love you're a liar by the clock"
 Cole tried to interrupt. Love pro- tested: T don't want to go into per sonalities, MT. Cole
 Why not?" Lewis shouted. "WhJ not?"
 Cole restored calm and the hear ings went on.
 The chairman announced Just pe- fore the Lewis outburst that the board would not take formal testl- mony, but would instead question the principals in public hearings te determine the facts.
 In this way, Cole said, the boarc could speed up it's report to the President, "If one is necessary.
 He did not elaborate on that statement. President Truman has asked for a report by Monday.
 The board had some informal sessions with Lewis and the coal operators yesterday.
 SETTLEMENT - MAYBE
 WASHINGTON, Feb. 8-R- President Truman's coal fact-flnd- ing board today won agreement from John L. Lewis and the coal operators to try again for agree ment on a coal contract through negotiations.
 The new bargaining sessions were set for 2 pm. with the board mem- bers sitting in as observers.
 The board members were optimls- tic that the whole coal dispute might be settled before nightfall.
 David Cole, chairman of the board, had remarked that he be- lieved an agreement might be reached lin two or three hours"
 Lewis said it was possible"
 The operators indicated they were less optimistic.
 The boards proposal came after a somewhat stormy hour and nall of hearings during which Lewis once called coal man George H. Love "a liar by the clock"

In Berlin, western officials eX- pressed concern oyer a newly an- nounced list of goods the Russians are refusing to clear out of west Berlin.
 The Soviet authorities have plac- ed ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metals on the restricted list, and have objected to west Berlins export of drugs, certain types of electrical goods, and fine optics.

IS FOUND
 TODAY ON MOUNTAIN
Reports from Whifehorse Indicate None of t2
 Aboard Killed

WHITEHORSE, VT. Feb. 8-tR- A Dakota search plane which dis appeared in the Yukon last night while searching for a missing C-54 transport has been sighted on mountain 12 miles north of Pon Lake, 88 miles northwest of here.
 The reports indicated no one was killed.
 The plane. not badly damaged in hitting the mountain side. was sighted by another search plane which parachuted a radio to the men so full particulars could be reported bacz.
 Some of the men were walking around the plane, but the number was not reported There were 12 aboard the craft when it disap- peared while searching near Ais hihik.
 It was found between the 5000 and 7000-foot levels on mountain slope
 Disappears Spotted
 The Dakota, searching for C-54 transport lost since Jan. 26 with A aboard, disappeared yesterday while sweeping the rugged, snow covered mountains south of Aishihik 100 miles northwest of here.
 It was spotted early today by an- other search plane.
 The plane was found near the southern boundary of it's search area. It was 12 miles north of Pon Lake. t..- -a'..ssrs ss--'... Names of those aboard, which in- cluded Canadians and Americans, were withheld by search officials.
 Launch Rescue Plans
 The Air Force immediately launched plans for bringing the men out. It was not certain immediately whether it would be feasible to use one of the three helicopters which have been standing by. Ofti- cials said it might be necessary to send in Army Weasels, specially equipped with caterpillar treads.
 Meanwhile there was no word from other planes which continued the giant search for the C-54. now on it's 18th day Over the general search area, the weather was clear north of Snag, but patchy snow and clouds obscured most mountain peaks. More favorable weather for searching was forecast for the next two days.
 Signals Picked Up
 Search officials said SOS. signals from the C-47 were picked up last night on the 8280 distress frequency. Efforts to obtain a fix" on them were fruitless. Ground radio posts in the area were ordered into 24- hour alert.
 The signals reportedly were dif- ferent from those heard earlier in the day by planes and Coast Guard stations along the Pacific Coast. The earlier signals, reported from the United States to Alaska. were similar to those picked up from time to time since the search for the missing C-54 began.
 Hope Still Held
 Hope was held here that the CAT might have landed on one of the two landing fields or two lakes in the Aishihik area, about 100 miles northwest of here, where it was assigned to check a 9O0-square-mile area. Poor visibility eliminated possible check on these spots last night.
 Temperatures in the region dropped to p below but search of ficials said the plane was equipped with emergency Arctic survival equipment.
 It was the second search plane to become missing since the far-flung search began nearly two weeks ago. Another CAT crashed on moun- tain peak 21 miles south of here last week. All six persons aboard |

is a matter on which there is q
difference Of opinion here, and
likewise there is a difference OF
opinion as to whether this chal-
lenge might check her, or at least
delay her. from moving through
another satellite, at another ex-
posed sector. She has the tactical
advantage Of being on the inside
Of the perimeter.
Can Take No Chances.
Here, too, however, we can take
no chances. whatever the diagno-
sis may be. ~
Consequently the idea is gain
ing ground for a general mobiliza-
tion of arms and manpower. It
would entail a large and substan-
tial military program with the
necessary conversion Of industry
from peace to war production and
corollary controls Of all sorts, on
prices, wages, and the like. as well

through the draft, Reserves and

This is advanced not only as O
matter Of national security but
in the still anxious pursuit OF
peace, as a warning to Russia that
we mean business, and not maybe
and that she would move else
where at great risk-all aimed at
checking her and preventing q
Third World War.
To this the counter-argument
is that if we mobilized fully she
would too. which. instead of pre-
venting war. would only aggra-
vate the tension and bring on war
the quicker.

pensive ordeal there and possible
threats elsewhere, the argument
has come around quickly to
whether we should move at once
to a full, general mobilization of
arms and manpower, instead of
taking the piece-by-piece route
of that similar era 10 years ago.
A really mammoth program
that would startle you, many bill
lions over all, Is being suggested
in some high and responsible
quarters.
On the other side, the neces-
ISity Of any such comprehensive
program is being discounted.
Stumbling in 1904.
In the 1940-41 period we STUN
bled along hesitantly. building up
a confused sort of superstructure
of bureaucratic agencies, one set
Of initials following another in
rapid succession, hotly scrapping
among ourselves as to controls
on our lives, business and personal
affairs. Total defense then was a
strange new phenomenon to us.
A general European war was
already under way then, too.
In that respect the situation to-
day is different. Yet we face a
set Of circumstances which, while
new, still adds up in interpreta-
tions Of officials here to just as
critical an emergency, even
though there is no general war !,
only what is legally called "a po-
lice action"
The open aggression in Korea
is represented as shift in Rus
sia's strategy from the cold war"
Of infiltration to the direct armed
thrust in which the Soviets use
puppets so that they, themselves,
still are not openly involved.
Whether this is the beginning of a
pattern to be followed elsewhere,
at other widely separated and
vulnerable points, no one of course
can forecast; but. as a matter of
safety, it is held here that such
must be assumed. We can take
no chances.
It was Russia's first open ag-
gression, though cloaked. like the
inf1ltration process, in a stooge.
It shocked the world. It brought
an immediate challenge from us
and the United Nations. Whether

Force to strengthen its tactical
air arm. The Navy's orders are
to build up the fleet by recon-
missioning more vessels faster
that are now in mothballs, in
cluding carriers.
The Defense Secretary also be-
lieves it will be necessary to in
crease foreign military aid spend
ing up to four or five billion dol
lars. He would like to see the
Atlantic Powers urged to couple
with this more spending of their
own on the urgent problems of
their defense.
Question Unanswered.
A question yet unanswered is
how the Secretary feels about re-
arming Western Germany and
Japan. There is military sentiment
for this; the diplomats and oc-
cupation authorities have held it
back. It is one of the most acute
problems with which the White
House will have to contend.
The military and members of
Congress also are fretting because
more members Of the United Ma
tions have not added military
forces to the embattled American
ranks in Korea. It is a fair guess
that while this is politically de-
Sirable, Gen. Macarthur would
probably not at this time care to
cope with too many of the hard
problems incident to Incorporating
foreign troops into his army.
The Defense Secretary attaches
the word replacement to his pro-
gram. It is designed, he argues,
to do the job in Korea, to plug
up holes left in Japan and at
home by the movement of vital
elements of United States forces
to the Korean area and to fortify
trouble spots elsewhere.
This is probably the kind of
language the President will adopt
when he announces whatever YER
sion gets past the White House
gamut. The President was grim
mer yesterday when he saw the
press than a week before; he bit
off assurances that he would act
when and as necessary with the
air Of a man who has looked his
hard choices in the face.
Soviet Can Save Face.
But he did not permit himself
the luxury Of any cracks at Russia.
The Soviet Union can still save

the President are concerned. The

This Changing World
24th Division Defeat in Korea Laid
To Incidence, Politics and Indecision

The President, his diplomatic
advisers and his military men
must be aware that Russia's ag-
gression through its Korean satel-
lite was only a curtain-raiser for
bigger and more important de-
velopments all over the world. The
Secretary of State admits gravely
that the overall situation is very
serious. On Americas decision
to meet the Kremlin challenge
depends the course of events that
may change world history.
Yet in the weeks which have
passed since the outbreak of the
Korean war only insignificant su-
perficial measures have been
taken, just as if we had to deal
with a police measure in some
small state. There seems, on the
surface at least, to be little reali-
zation that we are faced with an
all-out conflict with a nation
which possesses millions of we'll
trained men equipped with most
modern weapons.
A skeleton division of Marines
has been ordered to the Far East
Another full division has beer
alerted and is expected to be ready
to embark within a week or so
The draft of 10000 youngsters
has been ordered. But outside OF
these perfunctory routine meas
ures nothing is being done fol-
general mobilization of Americas
great war potential.
Days of ChivaIry Passed.
Our Government is acting al
if we had all the time in the
world ahead of us, and as if thu
Russians would wait until we wake
up and decide to get busy. The
Government is acting as if the
Russians will follow the legendary
gesture of the 10th century French
marshal who shouted, hat in hand
to his British opponents at the
outset of the battle: '"Britishers
please fire first" The days OF
chivalry have passed, particularly
insofar as the men Of the Krem-
lin are concerned.
President Truman is said to be
worried. His smile of supreme self
confidence which he has displayed
since his 1948 election victory
seems to have disappeared. He
is concerned over the situation

It is difficult to find any
grounds for optimism regarding
Russian intentions beyond the fact
that she has not overtly moved
las yet. British sources warn
against expecting much from
British attempts at conciliation
in Moscow. The most they hope
to achieve, it is said, is to leave a
place where the Russians can
