Mining Congress Hears Calls for Tax
 Reduction, Return to Gold Standard

5 SALT LAKE CITY, R-Rep. Baker R-Tenn) called today for reduction in taxes as fast and as far as economic conditions and the need for national defense will permit.
 Baker, in a speech prepared for delivery at the convention of the American Mining Congress, said the House Ways & Means Committee plans long, searching look at taxes next January He told the miners to be prepared to present their views.
 Rep Dawson R-Utah, at a meeting on public lands yester- day, said House committee in vestigation into the public land holdings of the military services produced hair-raising discoveries.
 He said the Army, Navy and Air Force hold 27,OOO,OO0 acres of public land-s'the equivalent of strip of land IA miles wide stretching from New York City to San Francisco; it means they control an area larger than the entire state of Ohio no won der our hair stood on end"
 A resolution scheduled to be submitted to the convention to- day said, in effect, the United States should return to the gold standard.
 Dr. Franz Pick, publisher of Picks World Currency Report, said he doubted if the US. ever will return to the gold standard, even if the price of gold is in creased by 100 percent.
 Pick said the US. could not re- turn to the gold standard because there is not enough gold on hand to back the currency in circula- tion. ''T'he US. monetary policy has done perfect job of debase- ment," he said.

 Only two hours before the crew of the dredge, the Resell, had been presented with a plaque for two years of accident-free opera tion. The dredge was valued al $45O,O0O.
 Most of the crew were below deck eating dinner at the time They rushed to the deck and some began climbing the rigging as eight-foot swells broke over the deck.

Hoffa Challenged As Successor To Dave Beck

SETATLE, R-The four men who want to succeed Dave Beck as president of the teamsters union have presented their req sons to the policy committee of the Western Conference of Team sters-but only the. committee knows its reaction.
 One by one they confronted the 37-member committee yesterday, outwardly confident but obvious ly in position of 3against-1.
 The three are Thomas J. flag gerty, secretary treasurer of a Chicago local; Thomas J. Hickey, New York, an international vice president of the teamsters; and Rep. John F. Shelley D-Calif), former president of the California Federation of Labor.
 The one against whom their shafts were aimed was James R. Hoffa, Chicagoan and target of recent Senate Investigation
 Hickey told the committee the teamsters were faced with the problem of deciding what we are going to do to stay inside the AFL-CIO or are we going to put ourselves in a position where we get kicked out of the organized labor movement"

US. Mining Industry in
 'PerilOus' Condition With Shelters Going Full Blast

VANCOUVER, lR-A Royal commission to investigate the mining industry in British Col umbia was advocated yesterday by the International Union of Mine, Mill & Shelter Workers. Delegates to the union conven- ton said mining companies are exploiting B.C. mineral resources at their own discretion and under too little government control.
 AS a result the economy of the province has been severely af- fected when mining towns be- came ghost towns and raw ore was shipped for processing to the United States.
 One union official said the min ing industry in the US. is in a "perilous" condition with all the mines in the Rocky Mountain area lon the verge of shutdown. ,
 s'The ironic thing is that the -smelters are running at full blast using ore imported from overseas where wages are much lower,' he said.

Governor of Arkansas Summoned
 To Court for Barring Integration
(By The Associated Press) LITTLE ROCK

Quiet prevailed at Little Rock, Ark, today where federal author ities served a summons to court yesterday on Gov. Orval Faubus, who ringed Central High School with National Guardsmen to balk integration.
 Faubus, described as extremely tired, cancelled all engagements for today, including an hour-long radio program.
 The governor would not say whether he would appear person ally in court at the hearing on the governments plea for a tempor- ary injunction against him. If this is granted, the judge can set hearing for a permanent injunc- tion
 The court petition and order were the first concrete acts by federal authorities seeking to break the battle of wills in the nations most serious challenge of federal powers.
 Federal District Judge Ronald N. Davies issued the order on pc tition of Atty. Gen. Herbert Brownell. Davies then directed federal attorneys to write the petition.
 Faubus told a press conference at the capitol later that a reduced force of National Guardsmen would continue to surround the high school and prevent Negroes from enrolling. He said he cut the number of Guardsmen from 200 to 100 because tensions have less ened.
