 ALA5Kk COLLEGE

because of possible participation by other denominations. the Methodist Church can make no early an
 nouncement for establishing lib-
 eral arts college in Alaska, its rep l resentative said today.
 Dr. P. Gordon Gould, director oi Methodist work in Alaska, outlined the steps.
 At the April meeting, the last ] one of the Methodist Church com mittee. a request was received from | the Home Missions Council asking establishment of a college in Alasks on an nterdenominationa basis. St a smaller special committee wa. set up, to contact stateside repre-. sentatives of the stable denomina. tions having work in the Territory
 Meantime" said Dr. Gould, "tht Methodist church is going aheae with plans, and is determined tt see it through, whether interde- nOmlnatlOnal or not.
 No site will be chosen until it is determined how many will partici. pate, both in leadership and fi- nances. Then a special committed will visit Alaska, so that Alaskans will have the real voice in it's selec- ton. We are keenly determined tha, the choice be made by Alaskans. we hope the decision as to 'whe and how can be made within { year.
 When the time comes," Dr Gould continued, we hope, Alas kans will participate. Looking to ward a S2,OO0,00O endowment, wt hope that each dollar in building will be matched in endowment" The church official said that con sideration of the part played by both the University of Alaska ant the Sheldon Jackson Junior College will be important in establishing the new institution.
 Both in person and by letters, Dr. Gould said, we have beei told by the University of Alaska President and the board of regent of their keen interest in develop ing the proposed college. They set it, not as competitive, but as com. plement to the existing effort tt provide the finest. educational ia.

Mr.. Hanbury until two years
ago was active in Washington
boxing circles.
After going to the finals of the
135-pound division and winning
the A.A.U. title here in 1943, he
turned professional for two fights.
More recently he has been study
ing accounting and law at South
eastern University while working
on Mr.. Crawford's farm and in
his Office.
Mr.. Hanbury comes from a we'll
known boxing family. His brother,
Lou Hanbury, 26. was fifth-rank-
ing middleweight in 1914.
Mr.. Crawford was elected to the
74th Congress in 1884. The slight

Points to Union Meetings.
Senator Taft said he did not
know whether Mr.. Lewis could be
proved in contempt of court in
connection with the Keech order
because the union chief twice has
sent instructions to end the strike
to his men. But he pointed to the
reports of local union meetings
where the officers failed to direct
a return to work.
That would be in clear defiance
of the injunction" he said. 1T
seems to represent a direct con-
tempt of court"
Although the coal contract ne
gotiations recessed in deadlock,
Mr.. Lewis and the operators in
the last four days of high-pressure
talks made far more progress to-
ward eventual agreement than
they did in the previous eight
months of pickering.
Under Table Offer.
At one time Mr.. Lewis received
what was described as an under
the table offer of an increase in
wages and union welfare fund
payments. An operator proposed,
it was said, an increase of 80
cents per miner per day. The
amount would be divided between
wages and the welfare fund. 1t
was the equivalent of what the
CIO United Steelworkers won last
fall after their strike.
Operator estimates of the cost
of Mr.. Lewis contract demands
ranged from 1.85 to 81 for each
miner a day. He wants wage
increase of at least 95 cents per
day and a raise in welfare pay
ments of Is cents per ton of coal.
The miners now get s1450 a day,
and operators are supposed to pay
20 cents into the welfare fund for
each ton OF coal. .
Mr.. Lewis also asked that the
eight-hour work day be shortened
half-hour, and he wants more
holidays with pay and an i'm
proved vacation arrangement.
Halted Welfare Payments.
The operators halted payments
into the welfare fund two months
ago. Mr.. Lewis was quoted as
saying they now owe the fund
nearly $6 million. The operators
expect to pay it when the dis
pute is settled. Benefits from the
welfare fund were suspended last
fall. Mr.. Lewis said the fund now
totals about $21 million.

restraining order into a full 30
day Taft-Hartley Act Injunction.
Regardless of the work situation
at the mines, the Government. it
was said, will not bring up the
question of contempt at the hear
ing on the injunction. Lawyers say,
however, that Judge Keech could
bring up the question himself. The
miners have defied the judges
order for more than a week. The
UNIV and Mr.. Lewis twice in the
past were fined a total of $780,
900 for ignoring similar back-to-
work orders
On the question of whether the
miners would continue their
strike, John D. Battle, executive
vice president of the National
Coal Association here, had this
to say:
''It's the damnedest mess ever
saw.
Evening star., 1950-02-19

I'm some areas the locals aren't
even going to meet on the work
question until tomorrow"
Lewis Orders Rejected.
Mr.. Battle said mine operators
in five States had telephoned him
that their employees will not be
on the job tomorrow. He said the
reports came from Illinois, Indi-
ana, Ohio, Kentucky and Pennsyl-
vania.
Five UNIV locals in Western
Pennsylvania officially rejected
Mr.. Lewis instruction to end the
strike.
The miners fear that if they
return to work they will lose all
chance of winning new contract
concessions from the operators.
Labor experts here say that Mr..
Lewis is sure to lose his contract
battle with the operators If there
is large-scale resumption of coal
production. To win his fight, the
pressure of a continuing shutdown
of the mines must be kept on the
operators, they say.
Spearheading the mo contract,
no work. drive was the UMW's
biggest local, the 2,450-man
Robena mine unit at Masontown,
Pa. About 1000 miners attended
meeting of the local in the
towns high school yesterday.
/ An official said:
THE men who want to work
stand up"
Only two men rose from their
seats. The miners then silently
left the auditorium.
Joseph E. Moody. president of
the Southern Coal Producers
Association, representing about
one-quarter of the entire soft coal
industry, said all operator reports
to him indicated there would be
little, if any. work tomorrow.
Committee Shows Up.
| One operator told Mr.. Moody
that early yesterday a union COM
mittee showed up at his mine.
He said the men wanted to in
spect the mine in preparation for
resumption of work. But sud-
denly around noon they went
home without completing the in
spection. The men, the operator
said, offered no explanation for
their departure.
The coal situation drew new
comments from Senator Taft of
Ohio, the Republican leader.
Il think vigorous action by the
Government would get the men
back to work because I think the
men want to go back"
The Senator said there were
two possibilities for such action.
l. Enforcement of Judge Keech's S
no-strike order through contempt
proceedings against the UNIV.
/ 2. Action to prevent violerce
against those miners who wish to
work.
Cites Accounts of Violence.
On the latter point, Senator
Taft cited newspaper accounts of
violence against union min
ers and, in some instances. against
union miners who showed up for
work.
The Senator said the Govern
ment could rely Immediately on
State police and National Guard
units to protect those men who
wish to work. He added that
President Truman might even call
conference of State Governors
to obtain their cooperation in the
matter of full law enforcement.
On the subject of use of Federal
troops to restore coal production,
Senator Taft commented:

Just what happened in the field
where Mr.. Crawford was working
with his son, Billy Crawford, II,
and Mr.. Hanbury, remained u
mystery.
Pvt. Charles Nalley of Prince
Georges County police said the
tiff ended quickly when Mr.. Han
bury announced that, due to his
superior weight and younger age
he would not retaliate in kind, but
would take his grievance to the
police.
Mr.. Hanbury Swore out the as
Sault warrant before Justice Ct
the Peace Nalley Cox at Oxon Hill.
Md, causing Policemen Lawrence
Riddlebarger and Nally to call on
MI. Crawford at his farm.
Pvt. Nalley said he told Mr..
Crawford he could either post a
personal bond, provided he had
proper surety, or could engage
a professional bondsman. He said
Mr.. Crawford chose to go along
quietly to jail.
Then began a series of moves
to get the Congressman out of
JAIL. etls%
William Griffith, a Marlboro
said he offered to give
Mr.. Crawford free bond, If he
would just sign the right papers.
Mr.. Crawford declined, and re-
manned adamant even after the
bondsman offered to give him free
transportation home, Mr.. Griffith
said.
Checks With Bowie.
Pvt. Nalley, just to be on the
safe side, called States Attorney
A. Gwynn Bowie, to see if he was
justified in failing member of
Congress.
Later Mr.. Hackett arrived with
500 cash, offering to bail out
his boss.
They told me I needed $780,
Mr.. Hackett said. so I went back
to town, cashed a $100 check, and
returned. Then the judge said
he couldn't accept a cash bond.
The Judge" Justice of the
Peace Irving Traband wanted to
make sure, too. So he called Mr..
Bowie.
Justice Traband said:
"Mr. Bowie told me to follow
the same procedure have been
following the past 10 years and
make no distinction because of
a Congressman. I never took a
cash bond before, without a
surety, so I am following my usual
policy
Mr.. Hackett asked Justice Ira
band if he would release Mr.
Crawford on $4,000 cash bond.
Not even on a 100000 cash
bond" Mr.. Hackett said he was
told.
The $500 "Disappears."
Later Justice Traband decided
he would turn his back on an old
practice and free Mr. Crawford
on cash bail, right or wrong. He
felt the Congressman would show
up for the trial, he said.
But Mr.. Hackett and his 5000
were gone. SO was Bondsman
Griffith. Somebody called up Mr..
Hackett at home.
Il just drove past the jail" Mr..
Hackett said. II looked up at the
second story and saw the lights
were out. The boss apparently had
gone to bed. So I've decided to
wait until tomorrow and we'll see
then what the law really is on the
matter"
