Lewis Withdraw (Cincinnati Enquirer) Some months ago, in a copyrighted story, this newspaper disclosed information tending to show that John L. Lewis had developed a plan to win control of the American Federation of Labor through amalga- mation with his United Mine Workers. We further stated that Mr. Lewis hoped cither to nominate, on one or the other major ticket, a candidate for Presi- dent who would be completely acceptable to his labor policiés or, failing in that, to nominate an independent labor candidate with a view to splitting the vote to .

All this, we stated, was dependent upon the success of Mr. Lewis's application to rejoin the AFL and to dominate it through agreements with certain members of the fed- eration’s Executive Council. Our presentation never was challenged either by Mr. Lewis or his henchmen, and events which have transpired have tended to bear out its accuracy. The United Mine Workers’ application to. join the American Federation has lain dormant these many months. Time and again the Lewis element within the Executive Council has attempted to obtain its adoption, but always the ;scheme was “tabled.” The Mine Workers' “earnest money”—a check for $60,000 —continued to repose in the AFL strong box. As weeks ran into months and the days of the national party conventions approached, time grew short for the up-‘ | ening of the Lewis political scheme.

Lewis is primarily responsible. His “‘whole-hog-or-none” attitude has done more to injure the cause of responsible unionism than any other single thing. Tt is most fortunate that his political am- bitions have been thwarted, at least temporarily.

The phrase, “Let’s get on with it” is much more common these days. In some industrial areas, there are, of course, ouibreaks of the “peace jitters.” I will take that up later, but it is enly a phase of the overall picture and in those sec- tions where it 1s prevalent perhaps a very justifiable one.

Miss Nancy Berg proved to be one of the most charming Fourth of July queens the city had ever had. Queen Nancy was attended by Miss Margaret Peterson and Miss Lynda Pademeister. Fred Cullen beat Ford Butler in the American Legion Smoker the night of the third and was acclaimed the heavyweight champion of Alaska. He outpointed and outfought Butler in every one of the ten rounds. A single by Garn, a wild pitch by Koski, missed grounder by Kearney and a single by Smith gave Douglas two runs in the last half of the ninth inning and won for them over Juneau, 6 to 5, the Fourth of July game on the Island. The game played in Juneau, which went seven innings, was between the soldiers from Haines and a Juneau team.
