Lewis Popular Following Endorsement Of Convention
INDIANAPOLIS March 1. John L. Lewis, veteran international president of the United Mine Workers, rides a crest of popularity after a strong endorsement by the miners convention. Delegates rejected resolutions calling for his resignation, but debated cutting salaries for Lewis and other officers. The convention set next Tuesday for trials of twenty-one insurgent leaders from a recent rump convention. Debates on a protective coal tariff and a weekly five day mine workweek highlighted the session, with Local 1062 backing tariff talks and a push for equalized working time.
