Chicago, Feb. 21.-—A “defensive al- liance” was up for discussion today hy coal mine and railway union leaders who assembled on the invitation of John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers' of America. Fifteen of the sixteen major railway unions ac- cepted Lewis’ invitation to participate in the conference. Mr. lewis sald he was confident that the conference would be “fruit- ful of results.” He said other confer- ences would prabably be necessary be- fore any final program might be adopted. The threatened miners’ strike on April 1, according to the miners of- ficials was in no way connected with the proposed alliance, but the officials said their hope was to create a work- ing arrangement between the miners and the rail men so that the pote tial strength of 2,000,000 in two basic| industries might be of such force as to prevent any arbitrary wage reduc- tions by employers without confer- ences with the workers.
