Washington Honorable Harry s. Truman, Pre- ident of the United States, Washington, D. c.
 Dear MT. President:
 While you and I may not agree on some things, we do, l think, agree heartily on the nations desire and need for peace. And person. ally have a very high regard for your sincerity and devotion to that cause.
 In that connection I believe you will be interested in a letter which I received from a stevedore Tn Philadelphia shortly after l visit ed that city in connection with the departure of the first ship carry ing the American Legion's tide of toys to Europe. The letter, signed by Francis A. Mock of 8525 s. Front Street, Philadelphia, follows:
 To-day I worked on a ship load ing toys for tots, or tide of toys as the program is called. After loading 12,0OO cases of CARE we proceeded to load the toys. l want to take my hat off to the Ameri- can Legion for sponsoring this program. There is lot of thought behind it, and you could almost feel it as I did today.
 During my lunch hour, I strolled

COAL PEACE
 SIGNING UP; MAY DIG MON.
Lewis Wins 70 Gents Daily Boost . Southern 0per-
 ators Still Holding Out

OIVIJ Stitt btVtNss'9 SA' WASHINGTON, March 4-iR-
 Coal peace negotiators drove hard today to get last nights sudden wage agreement into legal contract form. with the aim of signing to- day and digging Monday. The accord, giving John L. Lewis and his United Mine Workers sweeping gains. but not all they asked for, was reached at late
 night session after a day of cres- cendoing pressure.
 While the lawyers struggled with
 contract phrasing, the move for egislation to authorize government 'eizure of the mines all but stopped
 in Congress.
 Chairman Lesinski (D-Mich) of
 the House Labor Committee said the agreement in principle reached " Lewis and major group of op-
 orators makes action by his group today unnecessary.
 We are going to stand by-that's all," Lesinski said.
 Meanwhile the Southern opera ,ors, only holdout against the new terms, caucused to determine their position.
 The Interstate Commerce Com mission, coincident with the speed- up of settlement moves, cancelled a proposed new cut in railroad pas Senger service.
 Probably Monday The 372,000 miners. hard-hit after nearly a month of idleness, prob ably will troop back to work Mon-
 day if remaining details can be worked out and a contract signed this weekend.
 With the nation down to the bot tom of it's fuel bins. and industry almost to it's knees. the 10-month- old deadlock started to crack with startling speed yesterday. After hours of negotiating, gov ernment mediators announced that Lewis and major operators had 1 agreed on fundamental principles" for new contract. Southern opera tors still are baking. but they were expected to fall in line. 70 Cent Boost The terms were not announced formally. but numerous sources on both sides agreed Lewis had won: CD a 70-cent boost in the miners daily wage to $14.75, and @ TO- cent hike in the 20-cent tonnage royalty on coal production for the unions welfare fund, which pays for pensions and other benefits. The surprise agreement came on the heels of an appeal by President Truman for power from Congress to seize the strife-born industry He acted after the government had failed to end the strike with a Taft Hartley Act court injunction against the miners.
 With peace in sight, Congressional eaders were ready to junk the seiz- ure plan.
 Will Study, Anyway But White House sources said the administration bill will go ahead viJh one of MT. Trumans recom- mendations-a study of the sick eoal industry. The President said he industry's declining markets. uncertain work year. and severe competition from other fuels are
 the underlying causes of its con- .inuing labor troubles. Attorney General McGrath said that the final settlement arrange
 ment would prompt the government | to drop it's plan to appeal federal court ruling acquitting the UNIV of contempt. The Justice Department had brought charges against the union for the miners defiance ot a court nO-strike order.

Like flash, said the blonde at the back.
The car moved on toward the house, and
Lord Ellsworth, closing his burning ears
to the happy laughter proceeding from its
interior, tottered out into the road. His
spirit was broken 1t was his intention to
return home and stay there. And he had
started on his way when there came steal
ing into his mind disturbing thought.

was going to have fit in January or,
rather, baby Qt was her husband, he
recalled, who had the fts.) She was stalking
everything on his salesmanship. Gould he
fail her? Could he betray her simple trust?
The obvious answer was Yes, certainly"
but the inherited chivalry of long line of
ancestors, all of whom had been noted for
doing the square thing by damsels in dis
tress, caused Lord Ellsworth to shrink from
making it. In the old days when knighthood
was in flower and somebody was needed to
rescue suffering female from dragon or
two-headed giant the cry was always Let
Ellsworth do it!' and the Ellsworth of the
period had donned his suit of mail, stropped
his sword, and snapped into it. A pretty
state of things if the twentieth century
holder of the name were to allow himself to
be intimidated by blondes.
BLUsHlNG hotly, Lord Ellsworth turned
and made for the gate again.
In the living room of the white house. cool
in the shade of the tree which stood outside
its window, there had begun to burgeon one
of those regrettable neo-Babylonian orgies
which are so frequent when blondes and men
who are something in the lumber business
get together.
Cocktails were circulating, and the blonde

imitation of the man outside who had been
unable to get himself Strengthened out in the
matter of dog biscuits and richly bound

That reckless, raffish type probably buys

But one of the things that makes life so
difficult is that waves of confidence and
self-reliance do not last. They surge, but
they recede, leaving us with dubious minds
and cooling feet. Lord Ellsworth had
started out in uplifted mood, but as he
reached the gate of the white house the
glow began to fade.

into the driveway, Lord Ellsworth paused.
He removed his pince-nez, polished them,

chin. The first fine frenzy had abated. He
