u. 5. Reviews Appeal
OF Striking Miners on
Waqe-Rise Cutbacks
By jones Y. Newton

The Government today report
edly was reviewing the Wage Sta
bilization Board decision which
brought on the five-day -old, Ma
tion-Wide Soft-coal strike.
Economic Stabilizer Roger Put
nam had under consideration an
appeal by John L. Lewis striking
United Mine Workers and a sub
stantial part of the coal industry
from the decision which clipped
40 cents per day from the wage
increase recently negotiated in the
industry.
There was no indication Mr..
Putnam would look favorably on
the appeal. Earlier he gave solid
support to the WSB decision
which reduced the miners pay
raise from $1.90 to $1.50 a day.
In event OF a rebuff from Mr..
Putnam the case probably will be
taken to President Truman.
May Get Fringe Benefits.
If a plan of settlement is
reached it was held unlikely the
miners will get the lost 40 cents
in wages. More likely is that they
will be allowed the equivalent
amount in So-called fringe" bene-
fits. such as a longer paid vaca-
tion and in paid holidays. In
both respects the miners now get
less than the workers of other big
industries.
The 375.000 miners refused to
work last Monday after the WSB
ruling last Saturday. Mr.. Lewis
has described the decision as at
tempted thievery."
The coal case seemed to be very
much mixed up in politics. Real
istically. Government officials who
are not involved in the election
campaign say that way must be
found to compromise the WSB de-
cision if the mine strike is to be
ended soon. But other and higher
officials are afraid at the moment
to approve a compromise lest the
administration be accused of
"coddling" Mr.. Lewis, who recent
~ indorsed Gov. Stevenson.
Mine Owner Attacked.
Violence hared in Ohio, Virginia
and West Virginia mine areas yes
terday.
At GAINESVILLE. Ohio, a non-union
mine owner was forced from his
car at gun point and slugged. His
mine superintendent was fired on
twice and his equipment set afire
after he fled.
Gunfire was exchanged between
seven miners of non-union op-
Grafton at Oakwood, Va, and an
unidentified group that attacked
their cabin. No one was hurt. 1t
was the second time this week
that gun play occurred in the area.
Dynamite blasts wrecked one
steel railroad bridge and severely
damaged another belonging to a
StfucK coal company near Widen,
w. Va. Earlier this week train
crewmen reported they were fired
on. -
The affray at Widen was the
result of a ng-Standing dispute.
The Independent Miners League
of Widen, who are not members
of Mr.. Lewis union, went on strike
three weeks ago.
Efforts to find a way out of the
wage boost dilemma also were be-
ing made by David l.. Cole, new
chief of the Federal Mediation
Service. Mr.. Cole, Mr.. Lewis and
Harry M. Moses. president of the
Bituminous Coal Operators Asso-
