EN ROUTE WITH GOVERNOR DEWEY, July § (U. P.).~Governor Thomas E. Dewey of New York sped West today on a 400-mile unofficial campaign trip to head off a reported move aimed at blocking his nomination for President by the Republican national convention at Philadelphia | next year. The governor, Mrs. Dewey, their two sons, a secre- | tary and press representative, left| Albany last night. The family oc~ cupied drawing rooms on a train crowded with holiday travelers.

He'll Meet Committeeman
While in Oklahoma, the governor will meet with Lew Wentz, G. O. P.| national committeeman, Mr. Wentz said he would “drop in on his old | friend” at Tulsa, {

states, and has definitely scheduled

Needs Western Support
Tollowers of Governor Dewey pinned their hopes on delegates from western states and they want. ed the governor to weigh the re. ported Taft maneuver, They pointed out that Mr, Dewey's chances of being nominated would be short, ff not impossible, without western
support, Governor Dewey, however, did not |

James C. Hagerty, press representa-|
tive, two New York troopers, Edward Galvin and Joseph Micklas, made up the party. Ten newspaper reporters tagged along in another car on the train,

New Coal Pact Seen as Offset
To Oil Shortage
.. Warm Homes Certain,
Industry Says
WASHINGTON, July § (U, i]
# new coal wage contract, Industry d assure ample fuel this winter ‘for homes and facnatural gas shortages. U. M. W, President John L. Lewis was scheduled to meet with spokesmen for U, B. Steel Corp, other steel companies operating “captive”
contract. They reached agreement in principle Wednesday. Mr. Lewis was to convene his 250man wage policy committee late this afternoon to approve terms of the new contract. ; %,
‘Southerners Perturbed
At the same hour, southern coal producers resume their contract disThese mine -owners, representing about one-fourth of total soft coal production, passed up the 4th of July holiday to talk over Mr. Lewis’ demands. After a threehour session they decided to look for “more facts.” \ The southern producers, who face a coal strike when the miners’ vacation ends Tuesday, reportedly were concerned -over the generous terms of the northern agreement.
That agreement establishes a daily wage of $13.05 for an eight hour day and suthorizes 8 10-cents-a-ton contribution to the health and welfare fund. It covers 145,000 miners in -more « thén' 3000 nines in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland and northern West Virginia—pits producing glmost 50 per: cent of the nation's bituminous coal.
See Steel Assured
Spokesmen for the northern op-’ efators said the new agreement, besides guaranteeing an adequate fuel supply, would also assure uninterrupted flow of steel for automobiles, household appliances, and other consumet goods. They contend that a steady flow of these items will avert a period of inflationary pressure which might have occurred if no segment of the coal industry had signed a contrast with Lewis before the’ strike deadline. ? U. M. W. ratification of the terms will send the miners employed by these companies back to their jobs promptly at the end of their current 10-day vacation. The mines have been closed since June 27 for the vacation period. Government authority to operate them ended last Monday, Spokegmen for Indiana and Tlinolg operators were standing by and were expected to seek negotiations with Mr. Lewis as soon as he is free to. deal with them. These producers’ operate on the western edge of-the ares which has already reached a settlement.

ONE PROMINENT Democratic senator, deeply worried about atomic arms race, considers making formal suggestion that President Truman bring our re. lations with Russia to showdown in this field, too.

Jenner Votes ‘No’
SEASON for empty congressional gestures is now on. Example: Chairman Taft of senate labor committee asked members to vote oul federal-mid-for-education bill “because we do not intend to pass’ it anyway,” Senator William R. Jenner '(R.

ple the impression we intend doing something when we have no intention of doing it.” On other hand, Mr, Taft tried to keep committee from voting out bills providing’ automobiles for handicapped yeterans, for increasing subsistence to those in school under G. I bill, and for on-the-job training payments. Mr. Taft argued such measures were against Republican economy program. Committee overruled him. Also senate has no intention of taking up bill for Hawalian statehood. House Republicans passed it to use as campaign material (evidence of no G. O. P. color prejudice), but Republican high command joint meeting didn't even discuss it for final passage. Other activities in empty gesture class: . Recent flurry over housing bill, Townsend pension-plan meetings and agitation for vote on it, talk of anti-poll tax legislation.

He said the reports reminded him of the time Actor Orson Welles frightened New Jersey citizens “half to death” with a broadcast about men from Mars” invading Jersey. Dr. Lynn blamed the current “weve of saucer hysteria” on recent predictions that an atomic war would break out, laying waste the United States. All this talk, said, prepares many people for emotional disturbance. In many cases, he said, they see what they want to see. Still others see what doesn’t exist because they expect to see something—such as flying saucers. » . » :
