GOYERNMENT SEEKS TO END COAL WALKOUT

MAKING SECRET ATTEMPTS TO SETTLE NATIONWIDE COAL STRIKE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.— (UP) The government is making secret attempts to settle the nationwide soft coal strike and prevent it from spreading to the anthracite fields, it was learned today.

Informed sources revealed that David L. Cole, chief of the Federal Mediation Service, has been meeting privately with John L. Lewis and coal industry operators in a move to end the stalemate.

However, the United Mine Workers’ chief was reported standing firm on his position that only a *1.90-a-dHy raise will settle the soft coal strike and prevent a possible similar walkout of *85,000 hard coal miners Is*wis was scheduled to resume negotiations (10 a. tn. E8T) with hard coal operators, but there appeared little chance of a quick agreement. The operators termed the settlement price tag too high and too risky. The soft coal pits remained closed for the fifth straight day as more than 350.00(1 miners continued their strike against the Wage Stabilization Board’s 40cent cut in their pay raise. Undaunted by the board's ruling, Lewis served the same demand in negotiation;! with anthracite operators — that he wants tlye full $1 90 in wages, rather than the *1.50 board limit in pay and the rest in fringe benefits. Labor members of the board said laivvis might get tlie full amount If lie would accept 40-cents of it In improved vacations, paid holidays or other fringe benefits. The anthracite ojieraloro, well aware of what happened in the soft couf industry, were balking at pa; n g Lewis' prior They felt the wage board would also cut down this increase, and they would be hit by a strike even if they agreed to pay the price. However, the operators were hesitant about flatly rejecting the demand. Both sides arc working under an interim agreement reached a month ago, but there was a question whether Lewis might end that agreement and call a walkout if negotiations broke down.
