Roosevelt inflation order tested by Lewis in mines strike
John L. Lewis, head of the United Mine Workers, said Roosevelt's inflation measure left wages and living standards substandard for miners as wage talks resumed for 450,000 union members. The administration’s action limits the War Labor Board’s power, framing a dispute over wage increases and living standards amid coal industry negotiations.

Instruments of Death Are Trial Feature
Kansas City April 1e defense attorneys in the murder trial of Geery Welsh criticized County Coroner Dr Leitch over his testimony on a baited knife used in the stabbing of Miss Lehi Acole Welsh sister of the defendant. Barker pressed for precise details of the weapon and wound while Leitch described the act as dexterous and deliberate. The cross examination probed the knife’s potential to fracture a skull and whether a photograph could clarify the wound before a definite opinion.
