Mine Strike Stay

Injunction Put On Day-to-Day Basis (Continued From Page One) from the coal fields that Mr. Lewis’ order apparently reached the miners too late. Industry sources hoped that the miners will be back in “a day or two” and that normal production will be resumed then. Mr, Lewis’ order evidently arrived too late to prevent 37,000 more miners from staying home today, joining the 150,000 who, struck yesterday and the 100,000! ‘who refused to go back to! the pits while Mr. Lewis faced, court action.

Lewis had suggested they return to their jobs. However, only about’ 500 workers in the Terre Haute area responded. : : 7500 in State Wait The remaining 7500 Hoosier miners apparently awaited . further development in the federal government's contempt case against Mr. Lewis and the union, union officials said. A further sentencing on civil contempt charges against Mr. Lewis and the union were slated for Friday. In‘ addition, 2800 anthracite miners struck in eastern Pennsylvania today, joining the ‘miners’ protest for the first time. In West Virginia the back-to-work movement started last night when 5000 miners returned in the inding Gulf area. : An estimated two-thirds of Illinois’ 24,682 United Mine Workers returned this morning.

De Gasperi Wins Italian Assembly

Communists Show

. No Signs of Coup

ROME, Apr. 21 (UP)—Premier Alcide de Gasperi's Christian

Democrats have won an absolute]. Chamber of Deputies, Interior]

Minister Mario Scelba announced offi today. Mr. Scelba also claimed an absolute majority in the Senate, but

* |it developed that he had forgotten

to consider that 107 honorary Senators were named before the election. : 3 Inclusion of theseé in the party totals showed that the Christian Democrats would have qnly 43 per cent of Senate seats. The absolute majority in the Chamber of Deputies, more important of the houses of parliament, demonstrated the greatly increased strength of Mr. De Gasperi’s party. In 1946, the Christian Democrats won only 35.2 per cent of the vote. 3 Wins 808 Seats Mr. Scelba’s figures, based on a final count of all except four precincts in the country, showed the Christian Democrats had won 303 Assembly seats, and probably would get four more from fractional voting under the pro: portional representation’ plan. This would give them 53.48 per cent of chamber seats. The Communists had cinched 178 seats and were expected to get four more, giving them 31.7 per cent. : In the Senate, counting the honorary appointments, the Christian Democrats would have 148 seats, or 43 per cent, and the Communists 121 seats, or 35 per cent. Mr. Scelba’s announcement of the extent of the Christian Democratic victory came as some violence was reported in both the north and south of Italy. There seemed no prospect of a major Communist attempt at a coup, however. Bars Communists At the same time, the Communists, beaten two-to-one in the final returns, were demanding a share in the coalition government Mr. De Gasperi will form about May 20. Premier De Gasperi told the United Press yesterday that the Communists would be excluded from his new cabinet when it is formed May 20.

At the same time, the Communist Front showed signs of crumbling under the impact of Mr. De Gasperi’s victory. A group of six leftwing Socialist leaders presented leftwing Socialist Chief Pietro Nenni with a demand their party quit the leftist alliance.
