Peace Observed In Coal Mines; Trustees Meet Washington, April Peace rode into the coal pits with thousands of returning members today. But John L. Lewis and the operators begain slugging it out over pensions in another ring. The miners appeared to be head- ins; back to work all through the Mattered coal fields, finally ending weeks of shutdowns. The walkout began March 15, after Lewis told the miners that the operators' had "dishonored" their contract by not agreeing to his pension proposal.

I Lewis called a meeting today (4:30 p. m. cdt) of the three trustees of the pension fund, presumably to consider the newc.st moves of the operators. These include a court challenge by Ezra Van Horn, the operators' trustee, of the tentative pension plan which prompted Lewis to send the men back to work. It was adopted by Lewis and Senator Bridges the neutral tee.

over Van Horn's objection. The operators also made public the final report of a statistical of the welfare fund. That study, by a Philadelphia firm, said the present 10-cent a ton royalty payments by the mine owners could finance only a $50 a month pen- lion for their workers who reach age 65. The plan agreed to by Lewis and would provide a $100 a month pension for 62-year-old United Mine' Workers who had served 20 years in the industry and retired after May 29, 1946. U.
