On March 13 jt will be in opposition to the sun, rising in the east just as the sun sets in the. west. Jupiter is now unusually bright, being about 10 times as bright as a first magnitude star, To see all four planets at the end of March at one and the same time you will need to view the sky before Mercury sets, which is about two hours

Mine Workers holds ‘the “whip hand” in current negotiations for a new coal contract. And if he ddesn’t get what he wants, “he’ll call a strike come hel} or high water.” . Both Democratic and Republican congressmen from coal producing areas expressed that opine ion in interviews today as the U. M. W. dnd mine operators began talks for a new contract.

The congressmen,, who asked

“that their names be withheld, all expressed “hope” that there would. bé no strike. But none was too optimistic. . gE If a strike does occur, they said, the government will have no alternative but to seize and operate the mines.

» » ® 3 ONE representative said seizure vould “play right. into Lewis’ ands.”

“The government wouldn't be

able to- operate the mines successfully,” he said. Lewis knows this. The government eventually would be forced to capitulate to * him. “The "seizure ‘would give Lewis a chance to tell the mines that the Roosevelt administration tried to keep them from getting

“It is Setremely funny that the nation developed a eritical coal shortage necessitating the curfew just hefore the opening of the new contract negotiations. .
