The President was said to be anxious to have the board working, in time to prevent a threatened stoppage of work in the soft coal industry. Management-labor conferences are going on in New York, but the present two-year contract expires March 31.

There has been no official indication who the President has in mind for the chairmanship of the new mediation board, to be selected from the public's representatives. Several names have been mentioned informally, including Mr. Willkie, Bernard M. Baruch, chairman of the World War Industries Board; Dean James M. Landis, Harvard Law School; Dean Lloyd Garrison, University of Wisconsin Law School, and Former Gov.

Lloyd Stark of Missouri. It was understood the President would like to have both Mr. Murray and Mr. Green serve as labor representatives, but it was reported that both would or already have declined. Comment On Speech Legislators and diplomats spent the week-end studying Mr.

British-United States talks are in progress and there were indications that a compromise might be reached with the British allowing some food to pass the blockade. House Democratic Leader John W.

The Treasury is about to begin formulation of recommendations for higher taxes on the basis of March 15 income tax returns now being tabulated. Mr.

Roosevelt's declaration Saturday that sacrifices by all will be necessary to defeat the dictators was expected to result in speeding the tax program, although congressional action is not expected until late this spring. 6 There were reports that the Administration might act soon to alleviate the serious shortage of merchant shipping.

The Unemployment Compensation officials said they had been informed that about 230 men were affected by the strike.

Of this number, they said, 40 had been laid off since the first of January and probably had filed claims for benefits at that time. A few others, living in Washington County, filed claims there. The amount of benefits they will get depends on past earnings records. The average for Pennsylvania has been running around $10.50 a week recently. The maximum benefit period is 13 weeks.

Senator Carter Glass who favors a declaration of war against Germany, summed up the comment of Administration supporters in Congress by saying that "the President seemed to promise Great Britain and associated nations every possible help except to send our boys over there." Representative Clifton A. Wood-rum who is in charge of the pending seven billion dollar aid to democracies appropriation bill, said it was a "fighting speech which could not be misunderstood by anyone." Senator Wayland C. Brooks an opponent of the President's foreign policies, said Mr. Roosevelt "has served notice that he proposes to participate in every foreign war now raging through the universe.

Roosevelt may clean up before leaving Washington, including the nomination of a pew Supreme Court Justice to fill a vacancy created by the retirement of James C. McReynolds. Senator James F. Byrnes S. and Attorney General Robert H.

Jackson are believed to be the most likely candidates. 11-Man Mediation Board But the major immediate interest is in the new, big mediation board for handling defense labor disputes. Sometime before Wednesday. Mr. Roosevelt is expected to issue an executive order creating the agency which will consist of 11 members, three representatives of the public and four each of labor and management.

The American Federation of Labor has approved the plan, but the Congress of Industrial Organizations opposes it on the grounds that it is "wholly unrealistic" and that It would "operate to the complete detriment of labor." Mr. Roosevelt conferred with AFL President William Green last week and, in an effort to win a solid labor front endorsement of the plan, held an unusual Sunday conference with CIO President Philip Murray, who expressed opposition urday night that "the German press Effie Gilmore, of 529 North Fourth FRESH Pork Chops MIXED CUTS Iff, CENTER CUT. lb. 25c STUM Bellwood, Pa W.
