Coal Strike Seeks !
To “Intimidate and
Coerce Senate”
(Contined from Page One)
miners also are protesting appoint
ment of Dr. James Boyd as direc
tor of the U. S. bureau of mines.
The idle miners normally work
in these ten states: West Virginia
Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Illinois,
Alabama, Ohio, Virginia, Tennes
see, Indiana, and Maryland.
Lewis’ order for a work stop
page exempted about 32,000 UMW
miners in these states: Wyoming,
Colorado, Montana, Utah Arkan
sas, Oklahoma, New Mexi c o,
Washington, Kansas and Missouri.
Western state produce only
a trickle of the nation’s soft coal.
Pennsylvania produces virtually
all the anthracite mined in the
United States and ranks second af
ter West Virginia as a soft coal
j producer.
In Washington, Senator Byrd
i<D.-Va.) called on the Senate to
| “promptly confirm” Boyd’s ap
1 pointmerit “as a reply” to the mine
i shutdown. He added:
“As the nomination of Dr. Boyd
! is now before the Senate for con
firmation, the strike order is noth
• ing less than an attempt to coerce
and intimidate the Senate of the
! United States ...”
The miners may find time
hanging heavily on their hands. In'
other years such “holidays” come
I later in the season when the men
i could do spring gardening, go
fishing or to the baseball parks.
[But it was too cold today.
1 Lewis, 69 year old leader of the
united mine workers, last Friday
ordered the pits closed down from
today until March 28.
The first effects of the work
j stoppage came in the railroad in

chunk of their freight revenue

will not be hit immediately. They
have large supplies of coal above
ground. The national coal stock
pile totals an estimated 70,000,000
tons. That’s the most coal above
ground in any spring since 1942.
It’s good for about 45 days.

Commission Asks
Shearing Of Power
Of Departments
WASHINGTON, (/P)—The Hoo
ver commission Saturday, pro
posed stripping executive powers
from nine agencies which regulate
such things as shipping, radio,
power and labor relations.
It said these agencies perform
such functions “badly” and thus
hamper the regulation of vital in
dustries.
The 12-member commission on
government reform filing its 12th
i report with Conugress, proposed
as a means of cutting federal reg
iulatory costs and reducing “delay
'and inefficiency,” that:
The maritime commission yield
to the commerce department its
power to build, buy, sell, charter
and subsidize ships.
The federal power commission
be shorn of power-development
planning, and that the interior de
! partment get the assignment.
The interstate commerce com
; mission hand to the commerce de
partment its railroads and high
way safety programs and the con
trol of railroad cars.
Efficiency- boosting measures
also were urged for the federal
; trade commission, civil aeronau
tics board, federal reserve board
and national labor relations board.

Gen LeMay Decor
ates Researcher
OMAHA, t/P)—Robert N. Davis,
34, reseracher in electronics at the
j Massachusetts institute of technol
ogy, was decorated Saturday for
his service to the government.
Lt. Gen. Curtis LeMay com
manding general of the strategic
1 air command presented Davis
, with the air medal and a special
commendation from President
Truman.
!
! Davis received the air medal for
a light plane flight from Point
Barrow, Alaska, to the Polar ice
pack. The purpose of the flight
was to see if a light plane could
fly a rescue mission to a heavier
plane if one were downed in the
Polar region.
His night flight developed a new
system of navigation.
H is» commendation from the
President was for his role in the
Eniwetok atomic weapons tests
last summer.
Operate On King
George’s Leg
LONDON, (/P)—King George VI
was operated upon at Bucking
ham Palace Saturday in an at
tempt to aid the blood circulation
in his ailing right leg.
The nine doctors who attended
the 53-year-old monarch said his
condition "is entirely satisfactory”
and there is no question of fur
ther surgery.
They hope the operation—call
ed lumbar sympathectomy — will
permit the blood to flow more
freely to the right foot. It was
performed, it was explained, lest
gangrene develop and make am
putation necessary.
King George threw off the ef
fects of the anesthetic a half-hour
after the operation. His physicians
said he would need to remain in
bed for about a week, after which
there would be a period of inac
tivity for convalescence.
A bird in the hand is bad table
manners—but it sure is good eat
ing.
Alcan Could
Accommodate
Much More Traffic
FAIRBANKS, — A general
declared Saturday that in an
emergency, military cargo over
the Alaska Highway could be in
creased 40 times over the present
traffic.
Maj. Gen. Stanley L. Scott,
commander of the Territory’s
ground forces, made the comment
after finishing a six-day inspec
tion tour of the 2,000 mile route
from Edmonton, Alta., to Fair
I banks with Brig. Gen. Paul F.
[Yount, assistant army chief of
transportation from Washington,
D. C.
[ Scott said the military now is
hauling 1,000 tons monthly, most
i ly perishable priority items, over
[the highway to Alaska bases.
“By assignment of the army’s
biggest trucks and trailers, and by
a c c elerating traffic, shipments
I could be boosted 40,000 tons
[monthly if necessary,” he said.
Yount said army transportation
chiefs are in favor of the recently
I discussed railroad linking Prince
George, B. C., and Fairbanks but
“we have no illusions as to its eco
nomic worth.”
He said the military value of
I such a railroad would be “obvi
: OUS.”
Yount later left for Anchorage
by train with Col. John. P. John
' son, general manager of the Alas
ka Railroad. He said he planned
to visit the ports of Whittier. Sew
ard, Kodiak and Adak before
starting back to Washington.

Destroys
The Rendezvous
I
—
! FAIRBANKS, (JP) — A b’istered
.iuke box is nearly all that re
mains of The Rendezvous. Fair
banks’ oldest night club and an
Interior Alaska landmark since
early mining days.
A kitchen fire swept through
the log structure early Saturday,
burning it to the ground. Proprie
tor Frank Caruso estimated the
loss at $60,000.
He said the fire started in a
grease blaze while the cook was
cleaning the stove. Lack of a near
by water supply and mechanical
failure of a fire engine allowed
the fire to burn unchecked.
The 40-year-old building, mod
ernized into a night club, origin
ally was a stable along the o’.d
Chena winter trail. Three occu
pants escaped unhurt.
Bartenders Start
“Cold War”
SEATTLE (/P)—A new cold w;
is brewing in, of all things, tf\*)
ice business.
First, a contest wafc announced
for this afternoon to decide who jy.
the Pacific Northwest’s outstand
ing bartender. But he must make
the best use of commercial ce it*
his concoctions.
Next came Pan American Air
ways with a ripe idea to cut in on
the act. Some quick fence-mend
ing resulted in an airways an
nouncement that the Juneau
chamber of commerce is going to
send a 500-pound block of lie
chipped from ages-old Menden
hall glacier.
Anyway, the commercial ice
men are going to have a p/e-his
I toric chunk of stuff they can mak*
their own ice packs out of, if Jun
eau’s chamber of commerce and
Pan Am come through as sched
uled.
