Washington, Feb 29. John L. Lewis stayed away from the government conciliation meeting aimed at ending the eight day coal mine shutdown. He sent three underlings, while the soft coal operators invited appeared unwilling to discuss directly with the mine workers committee.

Jones of Cumberland, Md., with Tone Boyle of district 7. Also noted was Ford County Commissioner Frank Crewch of Minneola, Kansas, passing after illness.
