Half Million Coal Miners Out Again
*WIB RULING
JGNORED BY
WORKERS
f) WASHINGTON. June ] -
(IUP) — Chairman William H.
Davis and two other public
members of the war lahor
board'conferred for more than
jfrtwo hours today with Economic
Stabilization Director Fred M.
Vinson as the United Mine Wor-
kers, in defiance of the govern-
ment, again tied up the nation's
hard and soft coal fields.
0 Accompanied by Wayne L.
Morse and Dr. George W. Tay-
lor, Davis called on Vinson at
9:30 a. m. and remained in his
office until nearly noon. The
walkout followed expiration of
#i working truce last midnight.
The board's position, it was
understood, is that UMW Presi-
dent John L. Lewis' "no con-
tract, no work" rule is invalid
in the present case because the
©WLB had ordered extension of
the old contract pending com-
pletion of a new agreement.
f)
Si
Hut the miners, refusing
to recognize the board's rul-
ings, have walked out and
the strike is on. Whether or
not they acted on valid
grounds, the bulk of the
UJOV's 530,000 miners quit
their jobs ill the absence of
any order by Lewis extend-
ing the truce.
Despite the fact that the con-
ferees appeared to be no where
near an agreement on Lewis'
..demand for $2 daily portal-to-
"portal pay, the contract negotia-
tors resumed their discussions
today. Lewis delayed the pro-
ceedings by appearing 45 minu-
tes late.
^ At the end of the morning
* session, the conferees recessed
for two hours without indicat-
ing what, if anything, they plan-
ed to do about the strike.

** Presbysterians Break
Into Win Column, And
Lions Share Victory
q Sweetwater firemen last
night wrested three games
from the Air Scouts to
strengthen the impression
that they will be "the bunch
to teat," for the champion-
ship in the Businessmen's
Volley .Ball League.
The Scouts were playing
without two of their best
and put up a game fight
against the smooth Fire-
hall gang.
The Lions eked out a one-
game victory on the even-
ing's program, but were un-
able to hold off a fighting
Presbyterian team anil pro-
ceeded to drop the ensuing
pair of games. The Presby-
terians, for the first time
had their pastor, Rev. C. W.
Williams to spark their play
and gathered momentum as
the games progressed. It
was the season's first victory
for the Lions.

County Judge Delas Reevi
his county commissioners
to put into effect around
15.
Realizing that every victory
gardener now has beans ready
for canning, Judge Reeves has
contacted M. B. Templeton, vo-
cational agriculture instructor of
Newman high who will co-oper-
ate in a county-wide canning
program to get underway when
details can be worked out.
The county owns several large
cookers, ample for processing
beef and other large cuts of
meat as well as vegetables. They
are idle and should be in use
especially when everyone is
making an attempt to fill the
pantry shelves with winter vita-
mins, Judge Reeves believes.
A center, where there are
lights, water and gas will lie es-
tablished and a supervisor to be
paid by the federal government
will be in charge.
The commissioners' court will
announce canning dates after
plans have been completed.

In addition to .smashing
the airfield, the bombers
started big fires in the rail-

The Fortress crews, swinging

viously bombed.
(The Italian communique to-
day said that Foggia, Pantelleria
Island and the towns of Augusta
on Sicily and Cagliari on Sar-
dinia had been bombed. The Axis
radio reports claimed that 20
Allied planes were shot down in
the Italian theater, presumably
on Monday, when actually only
two were lost. This exaggeration
appeared to be an effort to per-

AMERICANS
AID CHINESE
IN VICTORY
' By United Press
Chinese forces held five div-
| isions of Japanese in a tight
j irap today on the south side of
I the Yangtze river near Ichang
in western Hupeh province af-
ter routing them from advance
positions and relieving a threat
to the heart of central China.
Chungking communiques said
a "mop-up" was in progress and
indicated that recapture of
Changyang, only 15 miles south
of Ichang, was imminent.
American and Chinese air for-
ces aided the three-day drive
that heat back the spearheads of
the Japanese offensive which
Chinese military experts feared
would menace Chungking itself
unless stopped before it hit the
vital Yangtze river forts.
The allied air forces shot
down 23 and probably eight
more Japanese planes over
Ichang yesterday, pinning the
Japanese force to its main base
so Generalissimo Chiang Kai-
Shek's forces could complete
their counter-drive.
Allied bombers in the south-
west Pacific dropped 36 tons of
bombs on Lae in the biggest raid
ever made on that New Guinea
northeast coastal base. Contin-
ued adverse weather hampered
operations. Two Japanese plan-
es were destroyed during an at-
tack on Langgoer in the Kai Is-
lands.

NAZIS PICK
22D AS DATE
OF INVASION
LONDON, June l—(UP)—'The
largest concentration of Allied
shipping at Gibraltar since the
start of the war—104 transports,
tankers and supply ships—was
reported at anchor today as a
German broadcast speculated
that the Allies may invade Eu-
rope this month, perhaps on
June 22.
The bulk of the huge fleet
was transports and tankers
which arrived at Gibraltar yes-
terday, a dispatch from the Span-
ish border town of La Linea
said.
Taking cognizance of growing
allied strength in the Mediter-
ranean theater, the Rome radio
told its listeners to take their cue
from the way Britain, "beaten
and abandoned and faced with
invasion amid ruins, "rallied in
1940 and a responsible Italian
spokesman acknowledged by im-
plication that several hundred
thousand allied troops could op-
en a second front successfully
in Italy.
The total number of Allied
troops in North Africa and the
Middle East never has been dis-
closed, but probably exceeds 1,-
000,000. Prime Minister Church-
ill in a speech soon after the Al-
lied landing in North Africa said
more than 500.000 men had been
put ashore in northwest Africa
during the first month alone.
These were in addition to the
British Eighth Army, then in
Libya, and British armies in
Egypt, Syria, Iran, Iraq, and
Cyprus. The number since has
been swollen by the dispatch of
huge reinforcements to Africa.
Apart from the Allied invasion
preparations in the southern the-
ater, U. S. army headquarters in
London announced the appoint-
ment of Brig. Gen. Daniel Noce,
one of the outstanding Ameri-
can specialists in landing opera-
tions, to the European general
staff. Only last week Brig. Gen.
James C. Crockett, the I?. S. ar-
my's outstanding authority on
the German army, joined the
staff.
Stephan Loses Third
Appeal From Death
Penalty For Treason
WASHINGTON, June —(UP)
—The supreme court today for
the third time refused to inter-
vene in the treason conviction
of Max Stephan, Detroit restau-
rant keeper and withdrew its
Stay which was held up by his
execution.
In an unanimous decision, the
court rejected the latest plea of
Stephen's lawyers that under an
18S9 law be was entitled to a di-
rect appeal to the supreme court
from the federal district court
which sentenced him to be hang-
ed for harboring an escaped Ger-
man prisoner.
Stephan was convicted in De-
troit of aiding Peter Krug, an
oberlieutenant in the Nazi luft-
waffe who escaped from a Can-
adian prison camp. Krug subse-
quently was arrested in Texas by
Federal Bureau of Investigation
agents.

Gasoline ratoining, the 35 -

an abbreviated holiday for war

in the safety record.
Traffic accidents killed 71
persons, far less than the nor-

ALLIED SHIPS
MASSING FOR
INVASION
By United Press
The air war over Europe
brought new headaches for the
Axis today after more than 100
U. S Flying Fortresses had bat-
tered the airdrome and rail
junction at Foggia, in southern
Italy and other allied planes-
raided Sardinia and Pantelleria
again
British fighters crossed to the
continent today to inaugurate
June raids following up the
record-shattering bombardment
during May German planes re-
taliated by attacking an Eng-
lish south coast town.
Axis report told of the great-
est concentration of allied ship-
ping at Gibraltar since the war
started.
A dispacth from La Linea,
Spanish border town at Gibral-
tar said 104 allied transports,
tankers and supply ships were
riding at anchor at that British
naval stronghold.
Allied convoys have been
moving through Gibraltar
into the Mediterranean in a
constant stream .since the
Tunisian victory, reports in-
dicated. CJtlmate use of
their cargoes was a secret
part of allied invasion plans.
German propagandists specu-
late'! that the date for invasion
of Europe was June 22 — anni-
versary of the fall of France.
Kighter-i,ombers worked in
relays to bombard Pantelleria in
the Sicilian Straits, while Light-
nings hit docks and a power sta-
tion on Sardinia. Four planes
were shot down in all opera-
tions bringing the 12-day total
to 121 axis aircraft destroyed.
The air offensive by Britain-
based planes eased off last night,
presumably because of adverse
weather, but facts piled up
showing t aat fhe invasion forces
backed by America's enormous
output of ships and planes, is
preparing itself.
