ty of Millers' Strike
NEW YORK April 23—(UP)—
John L Lewis left the Appalachian
tell Joint wage conference today de-
l' daring that the operators had
taken "French leave" of the dis
- cussions but declining to comment
s' on whether his United Mine Work-
ers would consequently strike
Lewis striding from the con-
'CO ference room—where only the
UMW committeemen were repre&
sented—said the miners consider-
ed the operators' defection to be
a violation of the 30 day contract
extension under which the cur-
e rent wage-hours discussions are
'4' being conducted
Lewis declined to comment on
the possible effect of his depart-
ure but called attention to his
statement of yesterday that the
miners would not work if the
temporary wage agreement Were
violated
I 4 The operators are scheduled to
leave this afternoon for Washing-
ton responding to a summons
from the War Labor Board which
0 Lewis so far has chosen to Ignore

Wage Order
WASHINGTON April 23--WP)
—War Manpower Commission of
ficials are preparing to amend
restrictions on wage increases in
in Job transfers in ort4r to
strengthen the regulations and
make them more equitable
Several modifications are being
considered and in an informal
discussion with the press WMC
officials stal they were growing
out of recognition of a number of
difficult problems involved partic-
ularly in areas where Job freeze
plans have not been developed by
WMC representatives and management-labor
groups
We are not ready to indicate
the nature of the amendmerts"
the officials said "but they will be
adequate to handle problems that
have been arising since the regu-
lations were issued last Saturruy'
They said that these regula-
tions togetier with the wage
controls of the war labor board
had cut off 75 per cent of the
avenues to wage increases They
emphasized that any increase in
earnings gained by a worker
through a change in employment
would be based on the premise
that the change resulted in a
better contribution to the war ef-
fort than waa possible on the for-
mer job
The new amendments it was
said would provide for a more
definite formula to guide workers
and employers in determining
lwhat constitutes a Job transfer
in the interest of the war effor

Jeffers who lias fought several
battles with civilian agencles and i
administrators is in the ring to-1
day with a fighter others have
never licked—the U S Army
Observers believed this fight)
opening Immediately after Jeff-
ers' clash with Director Ebner
Davis of the Office of War In-
formation would either solidify
the rubber directors position or
shakedown his administration
Charge Gasoline Shortage I
The first blow flew late yester-
day when Undersecretary of Wall
Robert Patterson with Secretary of t
Interior Harold L Ickes concur-I
ring charged that the program to
boost production of synthetic
rubber has caused a shortage in
high octane gasoline for combat
aircraft -
Jeffers retaliated immediately
with a familiar feint: "it calls for
an immediate investigation"
Patterson seconded by Ickes:
1 Premised his charge with the
statement that United Nations'
strategy is based on saturation and
precision bombing of enemy mili-
tary and production installations
that a second front could not be
hurled against thr nnemy—except:
with huge loss of personnel and
valuable time—unless the enemy is!
"softened up" by air attack
Planes Grounded
2 Revealed that the army last I
month was short of 100 octane I
gas and for that reason fight-
ing planes were unnecessarily'
grounded that unless production!
of 100 octane gas picks up in-!
creasing needs for this gas In
Africa will not be met
3 Warned that unless there is
a swift and sudden shift in the
administration of the gasoline

BOMBERS WILL STRIKE AT JAPAN AGAIN
Mal Gen James H Doolittle shown sitting on wi g of his wrecked bomber "somewhere in China"
warned last night that American bombers will strike at Japan again soon in a "devastating attack
that will be continued until the Japanese empire crumbles and they beg for mercy" -
"Our Job is to utterly and completely defeat the 13panese nation and everything her war lords stand
for" Doolittle said in a statement expressing "dee o loathing and resentment" at the execution by
the Japanese of some of the members of his force which raided Tokyo and other Japanese cities
April 18 lao
"This can only be accomplished by striking at the heart of Japan Itself" be said "We started It
last year Soon our bombers will be there again—mid not on last year's limited effort"
ahead The risks ai'e great and
though my comrades in uniform
laugh with me as we Joke of fu-
ture danger still In each of our
hearts is the quieting knowledge
that some day we must prepare to
face the final fact of death
"That we can laugh now is
high tribute to the many reas-
ons we have found to thus pre-
pare ourselves and move for-
ward in hope and courage"
"Twenty-five years ago when
I was born the world was also
at war I grew up during the
peace that followed totally un-
aware of the pain and sacrifice
